more than anything else. A man will swear off the drink habit and be able to find keyholes for a month; he'll stop smoking and be nervous for six months, but when this terrible habit of paying a big price for anything just because your PRIDE gets wounded if you don't is harder to break than anything else. A good many men are trying it with marked success lately. They're 80 "hard up' that they can't afford tail ors' prices, and it does merchant good to see how tickled they are with the ready-to-wear goods they find. They're surprised to find JUST AS GOOD GOODS IN 4 CLOTHING STORE as they ever wore. Have you been converted yet?

rHB BAPTIST WITNESS AND MA
JOE ABRAMS.

Al Silly ISLANDER "A certain cor
rupt and seditious politician, who is
diligently trying to excite the preju-
dices of the people Of this state in or
der to promote his own interests, has
been spreading the report that Mr.. I'll.
M. Flagler has had his name erased
from the assessment rolls of New
York and made oath that he is c1ti-
zen of Florida in order to avoid pay
ment of taxes. This statement is too
ridiculous for sensible man to make.
In the first place, men far better ac-
quainted with Mr.. Flagler's affairs
than the said politician most em-
phatically deny that Mr.. Flagler has
had his name erased from the rolls of
New York or made oath that he was
a citizen of Florida. In the second
place, every school-boy knows, or
should know, that man who owns
property in one state cannot avoid
paying taxes on it by becoming citi-
zen of another state.
1t is hard to understand why these
attacks are made on Mr.. FlagIer, who
has done more to develop Florida
than any other one man, and who
asks in return only the right that be-
longsto every American citizen-the
right to conduct his own business

Mr.. HARRIS SET RIGHT.

State aenator.

de Was in no Sense a Candidate for
State senator.
OcALA, FLA August ID, 1884,
TO the Editor Of the Times-U Union
In the meeting held in this precinct
to elect delegates to the senatorial con-
vention, your Ocala correspondent
said: There was no politics in Mr..
Harris race.n / beg to state that /
was in no race. To the opportunities
Of friends, for months past, / have
persistently declined to be candi-
date, hence, in the sense of my being
candidate, there was no Harris tick
ct in the field. 1t is true, supported
a ticket, which has since been called
the Harris ticket.n This ticket had
printed on it the following note of ex-
PLANTATION: "Who votes this ticket
votes for the convention to relegate
the nomination of the senator to the
people to be selected by a primary
election" Whether this ticket had
been elected or not, it was never I'M
derstood that my name would come
before the convention. On the con-
trary, it was understood that it would
not. Mr.. Brown, who made such a
magnificent coup d'etat and coup de
grace, saw me days before hand, and
said he would not allow his name
used if l was in any sense a candi-
date. assured him that I was net.
Very truly,
f. z. HARRIS.

Said Hypatia, the female philoso-
pher of Alexandria: 81 saw the world

rent of worse scandals; every mercy

DR.. S. II. Bitch, the nominee from the senate
counties, is a pronounced anti-ca11 aud anti re-
form" democrat and withal, an energetic aud
progressive man. 1t would appear, therefore.
that the result Of the convention was not SO
much Of "vindicationIof General Bullock" after
al1.-citizen
How in the name of common sense
can DIR. Bitch be ''anti REFORM and
at the same time be progressive ?D
The statement bears upon its face a
contradiction. Besides, he is not pro-
nounced against Senator Call. The
Citizen knows this question was elm
mated by resolution of the conven-
ton. If that convention spoke at all
on the Call question it spoke in favor
of Call. General Bullock, who if not
Call man is at least reformer, was
elected chairman in an open contest
against Mr.. Wilson, anti-Call man
and an anti-reformer. Mr.. Irvine,
who in laying down his platform t.
the convention stated that he was
"unalterably opposed to Senator Call !,
got but twenty votes in more than as
many ballots. Marion county is a
Call county, where the political Jacobs
do not interfere.

Abrams Reioinder.

BELAUDING A SALOON KEEPER "A
so-called religious paper published at
Ocala is exceedingly denunciatory to
Mr.. st. Clair-Abrams and takes spe-
cial pains to misrepresent and abuse
him. One of its editors and mana
gers has canvassed and probably is
canyassing the country now against
him under the guise of religion. One
special objection of it to Mr.. st.
CIair-Abrams is its assertion that he is
in favor of licensed saloons i'm Flor
ida.
In the same paper we find lauda.
tions of Mr.. Henry M. Flagler, and a
pious wish that there were more Flag
lers in Florida.
Now, let us see. Mr.. Flagler is one
of the most extensive saloon-keepers
in Florida. He runs saloon in the
Ponce DeLeon and in every hotel
owned by him in st. Augustine. He
also runs saloon in his hotel at West
Palm Beach. When the wet and dry
election was agitated III st. Johns
county, Mr.. Flagler is reported as hav-
ing threatened, if the county went
dry to close up his hotels and throw
up his investments in st. Augustine.
Dade county was dry, but before the
big hotel at West Palm Beach begun
building, Mr.. Flagler's agent notified
the people there that the county had
to go wet or Mr.. Fiagler would neither
build hotel or carry his railroad into
the county, and thereupon the county
went wet.
Mr.. st. Clair-Abrams does not keep
liquor saloon. He holds to the doe
trine that he prefers to see licensed
saloon in a town than have it filled
with "blind TIGERS and yet a paper
purporting to be religious one, does
not hesitate to laud Mr.. HI. M. Flagler
who is the most extensive saloon
keeper in Florida, and to wish that
there We're more men like him in the
state, and to abuse Mr.. st. Clair
Abrams because he takes the position
that every reasonable man who is not
crank or fanatic on the liquor ques-
ton, will heartily coincide with!
The animus of this so-called relig-
ious paper can now be seen, and those
of our readers will plainly understand
why Mr.. st. Clair-Abrams is assailed.
We suppose, however, that it is
highly moral and christian of Mr..
Flagler to run several saloons, but
highly immoral and improper for Mr..
st. Clair-Abrams to oppose 'blind-ti-
gers p'-TaVares Herald.

Government Railways.

In these days of trusts and CONSOLE
dation, strikes and cut-downs between
labor and railroads, it may be inter-
esting to note what has been and
what can he done to remedy these
evils. We never hear of any strikes,
cut-downs or labor troubles on the
railroads of Australia, and why? Be-
cause the government owns and oper-
ates them in the interest of the peo-
pie.
In Australia you can ride distance
of 900 miles across the country for
$3.50; first-class, too; while working
men can ride six miles for 2 cents,
twelve miles for 4 cents, thirty miles
for 10 cents, ETC., and railroad men re-
ceive % to 80 per cent more wages for
eight hours work than they are paid
in this country for ten hours toll.
In Victoria, wheIe the above rates
prevail, the net incomes from the
roads last year were sufficient to pay
all the federal taxes.
In Hungary, where the roads are
state owned, you can ride six miles
for one cent, and since the govern
ment has bought the roads wages have
doubled. Belgium tells the same
story-fares and freight rates cut down
one-half and wages doubled. Yet the
roads pay a yearly revenue to the gov
eminent of $4,000,000.
In Germany you can ride four miles
for one cent on the government owned
lines. Yet wages are over 100 per
cent higher than when the private
corporations owned them, and during
the last ten years the net profits have
increased Al per cent. Last year the
roads paid the German government a
net profit of 25,000,000.
If our government owned the rail-
roads we could go to San Francisco
from Boston for SO. Look at the
proof: Uncle Sam pays the railroads
not quite S275 to transport a loaded
postal car from Boston to San Fran
cisco. A passenger car will carry fifty
passengers, which, at SO each, would
be $500, or clear profit of 1925 car;
and this, too, after paying 81 FER cent
on watsred stock, which is fully 100
per cent on the cost of the roads.-Al-
trarian.

Respectfully,
WILKINSON CALL.

The more that peculiar st. Clair
Abrams-Marks contest down IN FIori-
ola is studied the more muddled it be-
comes. Mag. st. Clair-Abrams ac-
cused Maj. Marks of misrepresenting
his constituents by voting against
railroad commission. Maj. st. Clair
Abrams voted for the commission.
They resolved to test the question as
to which was right by resigning. Our
readers are familiar with the details
of the designations, ETC., and of the
fact that ST. Clair-Abrams was beaten
for denomination, while Marks was
re-nominated. And now comes the
peculiar part of it: Both senatorial
districts instructed in favor of COM
mission. The people who defeated st.
Clair-Abrams instructed his successor
to do just what he had done-tO vote
for railroad commission, while the
people who re-nominated Marks in
strueted him to reverse his previous
action and vote for the commission
the next time. In other words, st.
Clair-Abrams was told, in effect, "You
were right, but you can't go back"
while Marks was told, "You were
wrong bet Well send you back and
instruct you to do better.n Now the
question is, which major was Endorsed
by his constituency? The old prob
lens of the boy, the squirrel and the
tree, and the hen that laid the egg and
the hen that Matched it, are easy in
comparison with this Florida conun-
drum. Savannah News.

A Blessing in Disguise

Kate Field, in her Washington, al.
ways says something new and good
about every subject of public interest
Here is an example:
"Thank heaven Grover Cleveland
sits in the White House. Go back to
1861 and think what might not have
happened had the president of the
United States been endowed by ma
ture with the backbone that distin.
cuisines the distant successor of James
Buchanan. Not only should we be
thankful for Grover Cleveland but We
should rejoice that he represents the
party of states rights. AS the head OF
democracy he does not hesitate to or
der United States troops to defend
United states property without con-
sulting a governor to whose cowardice
is largely due the intolerable condi-
ton of affairs in Illinois,
1.-The president did nothing that he
should not, but it is infinitely better
for the country that the recent ring
ing proclamation came from his par
ty. There is no question among re-
publicans as to supremacy of the ma
ton under all circumstances. The
uOtIu coutIuef6u the south III the
civil war but left many southerner
unconverted. To-day democrats are
busiiy engaged in giving the best OF
reasons why the president acted with
in constitutional limits in oroering
Gen. Miles to the centre of the strike.
The Union is safer than it was a
month ago. Debs is blessing in dis
guise after all.
God moves in a mysterious way
his wonders to perform. Telegram
after telegram was sent to the White
House from the south Offering every
possible aid. do you think we'll
tolerate defiance of the constituted
authorities of the United States, y
exclaimed a southerner to a western
advocate of armed rebellion. 1--WE
tried to go out of the Union once and
failed. Well be id if we'll lei
you.n Gen. Gordon echoes this
sentiment in choicer language from
his seat in the United States senate
There are no Waites, nor Altgelds,
nor Stones, nor Pennoyers, nor Level
lings south of Mason and Dixon's
Line. Gov. Jones announced that
he would lead the militia of Alabama
against the striking mob and forth.
