ABOLISH THIS NUISANCE

From Fort Myers, Fla, under
date of August 9Th, word comes
that the most intense Indignation
has been aroused by the proposed
plan of iced, the Koreshan high
priest, to found colony in Lee
county. iced purchased large
body of land bordering on Estero
bay last year, to which he has been
sending colonists. There are now
a large number of persons at
Estero, most Of whom are women
1t is alleged that promiscuous liv
ing prevails and that the laws of
morality are violated. A letter has
been received from Pittsburg
which announces that iced is
selecting the toughest men he can
find, many Of them tramps, and
that be is purchasing arms and am
munitlon. 1t is also said that these
men will be organized into mill
tary company and be used to make
Teed a power in Lee county poll
tics. The county has few voters,
and if iced brings in 200 or 800
men he can put his own henchmen
in office and al danger of his colo
nists being prosecuted for their
loose habits will be averted The
receipt of this letter has inf amed
the people here SO greatly that
there are open threats OF mobbing
the colony at Estero and driving
The newcomers away. Prominent
citizens declare that iced shall not
bring in the men he is now gather
ing, and that if the Koreshan high
priest ever returns he will be tarred
and Observation-Disclosures States
man.
This is matter that should be
investigated and dealt with imme-
diately. We would advise the good
people Of Lee county not to tar
and feather iced, nor nob his col
ony, bet to irquire into the matter
and if these people are acting con-
frary to law and morality to have
them dealt with by the proper Off
GERS. To check lawIessness with
lawlessness is bad policy. iced
and his colony have right to set
tie anywhere that they can buy
land to settle on, and to practice
their religion, if it be compatible
with decency and public safety.
But they have no right to practice
immortality nor plot to control the
county government. Let the peo-
pie of Lee county thoroughly in
Vestigate the Koreshan colony and,
if it be a nuisance, abolish it. But
let them use moderation and legal
means in doing so.

Mrs. Bloomer. the lady who first gave
conspicuity to the garments which bear
| her name, has just passed away at Coun-
| Gil Bluffs, aged &c. 1t can be said in all
seriousness that few women of the GEN.
fury have made n deeper or moro evident
mark upon their times. 1t required a
bold and original thinker--a sort of fe-

Mrs. Bloomer is dead, but her trousers
will live long and keep her memory green,
although she did not want to win fame as

women who ride bicycles doubtless will
put up a monument in her memory. They
ought to do it any way, for boomers mako
II possible for them to ride in comfort. Now
that the 400 in New York has set the seal
of its approval on bicycle riding for
women as we'll as on a convenient dress,
we may expect to see more boomers in
the park next year than ever. If they be-

coming they will be worn. Hitherto

peared. Now the trouble may become

As the matron upon whom greatness
was thus thrust lived in the old style
clothes to be nearly four score, it may be
said safely that she lived down her own
desert; but she builded better than she
knew in submitting for even few years
to reproach as ridiculous as it was unex-
pected and undeserved. To-day in the
most fashionable drIveways and walks of
the great cities of her country may be
seen her costume modified in many ways,
but all the ways loyal to the idea that she
endeavore1 to establish, the idea TO wit,
that woman was made for something bet
ter than n clothes rack, and that IO is her
privilege to dress herself according TO her
own ideas of modesty, health, economy
and cleanliness. Not only in the bicycle
dress of all cuts, but in every so-called
reform of the general attire of woman
hood, the once stigmatlzed "BIoomer'
principle is established and vindicated.-

And the beauty purer than the moonlight

Or when, through these curtained windows,

Came the winds and waters melody.
From the shadowy glades and leafy closes
Whence the winding roads glide through the
park.
Fragrant with the warm breath OF the roses
With their quckening lips that kissed the
dark
Often with the seawind in our faces,
We emerged upon the whispering bents
Where the waves ran IN their mileiong RACES
Like Invaders from their far white tents.
On the cliff bright light seemed to beckon,
anu the HORSES blcdSLeu on the slope
Glad as we whose bounding hearts could reckon
Naught as good but with the wind To cope;
Up between the bastiOns crowned and fearless,
Gazing out across the restless sea

Knew tonight that neyerc n our plighted
Pilgrimage be made 10 that dear spot;
But the flames upon tina; heaGand lighted
Burn in Us as deathless as our thought.
There may rise a building fair and splendid.
Unto which may we come and rejoice:
But for Us the past is gone and ended.
