MORE COLONISTS.
Mr. Johanson Brings Scandinavi-
ans to Florida.

n. ] Johanson, who has beer
travelling through the state in tbs
interest Of the scandinavian Immi
grafton Company, a northern colo
nizat1on concern, arrived in the
city yesterday from Tallahassee or
bis way to Savannah.
Mr.. Jobanson was seen at the
Travellers Hotel by Citizen re-
porter, and in reply to a question
as to the outlook for colony from
his company in Florida, he said:
Il have just completed arrange
ments for colony from the West,
which we intend to bring to West
Florida in Decem ber The colo
nists came from Scandinavia, and
went to the west, but they we're
not satisfied with the climate or
crops.
Il went through Florida and de-
cided upon several places suitable
for the raising of different crops.
At Tallahassee | met George w.
Saxon, who is engaged in raising
tobacco, and he informed me that
the crop of tobacco from twenty
acres of land on his plantation ag-
gregated 10000 pounds, and I de-
cided that tobacco was the most
profitable business for the first
colony to engage in.
The tobacco will be raised and
put in the form of plug tobacco.
We will have experienced tobacco
growers to instruct the colonists,
and we anticipate that the first
will be very successful.
The second colony will be on
the east coast or in the vicinity of
Punta Gorda. This colony will be
brought directly from Sweden, and
will engage in the raising of early
and tropical fruits
Mr.. Johanson will leave for Sa-
vannah this morning, and after
another trip through West
Florida he will leave for the West,
where final arrangements will be
made. The colonists will probably
return with Mr.. Johanson.-Citi-

Reply to Joseph Frank.

Entertaining, as do, a hearty respect
for a man or woman who frankly ex-
presses his or her honest opinion. hold
out the hand of friendship to Joseph
Frank, OF New York.
am glad that we agree on some
points; 1T gives us common ground
to stand on and to start from.
We both think that if one saloon is
GOOD two would be better, and three
better yet. In fact they should be put
on the same footing as grocery stores,
of which we have seventeen, they say,
and nobody imposes license fee on
them.
A grocer does not have to obtain the
sworn statement of twelve men as to
his good moral character. Nobody say 8
that a grocery shall not be in the neigh
borhood of a church nor a school house
nor that it shall be closed on election
day.
The law does not say that groceries
must not be sold to minors, nor to peo-
pie who have already had denough to eat.
Now, tell me why all these restrictions
and many more are imposed upon the
liquor traffic, if the liquor habit is harm
less and beneficial thing to cultivate.
We have been told by those who ought
to know that drunkenness is rare in the
wine and beer drinking countries.

where wine and beer flow like water.
Again, if ''getting used" to beer and
wine prevents one from acquiring a
taste for stronger drinks, how is it that
| the Frenchman has his absinthe and the
German his schnapps?
| Are any of you acquainted with that
| ideal inn-keeper, who labors with his
customers to make temperance men OF
them? Joseph Frank says he sells lots.
! Did he ever refuse to sell to man on
the ground that he had bought enough?
Let me tell you, there are thousands OF
sad-faced women who have humbled
| themselves before the mocking gaze of a
bloated saloon keeper to even beg him
not to sell liquor to their husbands or
| their SONS.
According to his nature, he answers
politely or roughly, but it amounts to
the same thing: ''The law gives me the
right to sell liquor. Pm in business to
make money, and as long as a man can
pay for his drink he can have it,"
Reason with a man when he is drunk
Faugh!
Did you ever try it? l have been just
that much of a fool twice and I'll never
try it again.
Yes sir, it is an unnatural appetite, in
deed. There is no need OF gong into all
the details of what is natural and what
is artificial in our lives. | will only say
that it is just as natural for us to be
pure and sweet and wholesome as it is
for the wheat to grow TALL beautiful and
sound. Heredity, disease and unfavor-
able conditions of environment have to
be contended with in both cases.
Let us confne our attention just now
to taste that we all know to be unnat-
ural and depraved.
Coffee may be bad sometimes, but
never anything that would cause man
to murder his best friend or throw his
children out of the window. Has coffee
or tea ever brought a man to poverty
or rags? | doubt if a taste for spices
would induce man to smash his furni-
ture or steal the shoes off his baby's feet.
As little as approve Of corsets, do
not believe that one ever got woman
into the House of Correction.
know that no woman ever ruined her
husbands life and home by pawning all
that he owned for the means to buy a
COZ set.
] is useless, Joseph Frank, to compare
a aste for alcohol with anything else
unler the sun. You and all the rest OF
US know that there is nothing else like it.
IT has been proven over and over, time
anl again, that alcohol units man for
exposure to heat to cold or fatigue. The
contrary is an old and long exploded
no ion.
when will Liberty arise for the
w rld," do you ask? Why, when we
get out from under the relentless iron
he, of the Whiskey Ring. Talk about

mic al than the influence which caused
Canada recently to lose Prohibition ?
After every Province had voted strongly
foI it and the proposed law had gone to
