THE CUBAN PATRIOTS,

Florida is next door nelghbor to an
grow in magnitude with each succeed
ing day. 1t is hard matter. though,
to determine Just the condition of affairs
on the Queen of the Antilles. SPANS
censorship of war news is very eXacting,
and news direct from the island is doc
tored to suit the views of General Cam
pos. 1t is evident, though, that the In.
surrection covers the entire eastern end
of the island and is gradually spreading.
But for the presence of the cruisers
and cutters patrolling our coast and
keeping sharp outlook for filibustering
expeditions. the Cuban patriots would
receive substantial assistance from this
section. Situated as we are less than
one hundred miles from the scene Of
war and being fully Cognizant of the
terrible oppression of the Cuban popula-
ton by the Spanish government, it Is
not wonderful that our sympathies
should be with the patriots, and but for
the neutrality laws and the aforesaid
cruisers and cutters, the sympathy
would take a very substantial form of
expression. During the ten years
struggle between 1868 rs Florldians rem
dered all the assistance in their power,
and had the insurrectiOnists been as
well organized and equipped as at pres
emit it is likely that the rebellion OF 1895
would have been unnecessary.
Bat Spain will cling to Cuba as long
as there is hope of subduing her, and
while she cllngs she will squeeze until
the very life blood oozes. The patriots
in the struggle for liberty and freedom
from oppression, deserve the sympathy
of Floridians, who, perhaps more than
others, know the fearful conditions that
exist on the beautiful tropic isle.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1895-07-03

The Florida Star of Titusville says
that Mr. Charles Schoonmaker arrived In
town last Thursday with the manatee
he succeeded in capturing in the st.
LUCE River. He first placed his nets
near Sebastian, on the Indian River,
and watched patiently for three days,
but did not succeed in capturing one
until he went up the St. Lucie River
Setting his nets there in the morning,
by night hehad medium sized man
tee, weighing from eight hundred to one
thousand pounds, and about eight feet
long. These animals are called sea
COWS, although having no resemblance
to COW, only IN the nose. They are
verv gentle, seemingly having no means
of defense, save in their speed-sald to
travel as rapidly as sixty miles an hour
and also in their remarkable gift of
hearing. They have an exceedingly
small eye, tiippers like a turtle, hide
about an inch thick, and fan-shaped
tail.

ing wont pay in Florida, especially the
growing of vegetables. While it may
appear that vegetables and small fruits
cannot Away be counted upon as profit
able crops, it is due great deal to the
way these products are grown, shipped
and handled, and surely enough corn.
potatoes and other staple farm products
can be raised to save sending off for
them and investing in canned goods
brought here from other states.
While some of us may be pinched a
little financially for year or so it is
better to face the evils that we have a
knowledge of, rather than seek others
that are bound to meet us in strange
localities, where we have but few or no
friends to help or advise u.s. Stick to
Florida and you will come ont all right
in the end.
