Interesting Letter from Florida.

Editor of Watchmon: - Although
Florida cannot boast of her big orange
crop this year, she still has her incom.
parable climate, her balmy air and
sunny skies, with plenty of luscious
strawberries, new potatoes, green peas,
and all kinds of fresh "garden sass "
to satisfy the cravings of the material
body. Oranges have been few and far
between here this season. presume
they have sold higher right here than
in Vermont. 1t is estimated that Flor
ida produced but about $4,000 boxes OF
oranges this season. Next season she
will have twice that amount, and in
five years she will be back to the mil
lion-boX record.
There was never time In the last
twenty years when Florida offered 80
great opportunities for men with money
to engage in paying business as at
the present time. There are good
many groves and beautiful improved
places, in good locations, which can be
bought now for much less than the
buildings cost. These places, if they
were properly taken care OF and the
orange trees cultivated, would in few
years bring go income to the own
ers. Many people here who had orange
groves, but who perhaps owed little
on them at the time of the freeze, prac-
tically lost all they had. Their means
of support were taken away, and they
were without the capital to bring their
groves up again from the roots of the
old trees. SO some have moved away;
others are left stranded, unable to give
the groves the proper work they need.
Therefore l say noD is the time for
men with means to buy most desirable
property that will double in value in
the next five years. Mark what say,
and see.
Winter Park is about as lively this
winter IA usual. Rollins College is
pretty well filed with students and
ranks as one of The best schools
for a practical education. The hotels
have done good business, but not
quite up to the average. The Semi
MOLE" which can accommodate about
400, has only about 1876 now. Our pub
lie schools are first-class. There are
three fine churches-M ethodist, Union
Congregational and Episcopal. The
first two have settled ministers; the
! Episcopaians have service nearly every
Sunday, but have not settled rector.
Since our orange trees were frozen,
people here have found that they can
raise nearly everything they need
Nearly everyone who had horses or
stock formerly bought northern hay,
but now there is very little money
spent for that commodity. There is no
trouble in growing all we need. Quite
a number have gone to dairying, and
since the cream separator has become
practical machine, they are making fine
butter, which readily sells at from
thirty to forty cents per pound right at
home.
Florida received terrible blow when
she got two freezes in one winter, but
like Chicago after her great fire, she is
bound to rise from the ruins more
bright, more fair, more prosperous.

Major McKinl y's 166 delegates come

Senator Allison has twenty-six votes
from Iowa, two from Louisiana, four
from Texas and one from the District
of Columbia. Speaker Reed has three
votes from Georgia, nine from Louis
lana, three from South Carolina, four
teen from Texas and one from the
District of Columbia. The other can
didates have support only in their home
states. To this list is now added New
York's four delegates-a t-large.
Richard Kerens, Missouri's represent
alive on the republican national COM
mittee, has unlimited confidence in the
nomination of Mckinley. Mr.. Kerens
says
"The nomination of Mckinley is al
ready an assured fact. 1t is now Dor
dering on the domain of a nomination
by reclamation. 1t is popular upris-
ing, growing in strength and vigor ever y
day. 1t is unjust to say that emissaries
in McKinley's interest have been sent
out over the country, for this could not
have been done. No means for this pur-
pose are or have been at his disposal.
can say for Missouri that not even a
postage stamp has been used to infiu
ence public sentiment. 1t came natur-
ally and the state is absolutely unani-
nous for him. There is no second
choice. The people en- masse have
risen, and this popular wave will roll
on. Mckinley will be nominated and
elected. There can be no doubt about
that fact"
Mr.. Kerens says that the Auditorium,
in which the convention is to be held,
will be the largest and finest ever turned
over to any national convention in this
country.

A COwardly Blow Below the Belt,

This New Hampshire man has been
in politics for forty years, and in all
that time he has been the friend of
schemes, of extravaganza and of plans
for debauchery in the South and for
favortsm in the North. He was be-
gotten senatorially by the Boston &
Maine Railroad Company, which in
cludes the state of New Hampshire
among it's assets as much as it's station
in Boston. Whatever he says is dis
credited by the fact that it comes from
him. What he has said in this instance
is denied by the men who are supposed
to know, is improbable from the nature
of the support of Mckinley, and,
further than this, is in violation of the
principles of political etiquette. 1t is

Bands OF Mercy,

The subjoined is an extract from a
leahet circulated under the auspices of
the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union. In the City Of Montpelier Bands
of Mercy have been formed in five
grades of the public school, with results
already noticeable:
Crime and cruelty will never cease
until children are universally taught
kindness to every creature and In
structed as to the proper care and treat
ment of domestic animals. Humane
workers discover unceasing barbarities
to cats, dogs, cows, horses, children,
etc. many too horrible for easy be-
lief, often in respectable and sometimes
in Christian families. A great part of
the suffering of animals arises from the
ignorance of their keepers or drivers.
What more serviceabe teaching can be
given in public schools than the proper
care and treatment of these indispensa-
BILE friends of manp Millions of dollars
are lost each year in horses, mules, cat
tie and sheep, through cruelty and ig
norance; and instruction as to their
needs, and possibilities of suffering,
would "pay' as we'll as any present
branch of teaching. Multtudes OF
horses are famed and ruined by igno-
rant keepers who went to school, but
we're taught nothing on these important
matters. In every school and Sunday
school there should be a live Band of
Mercy-in every village an Humane
Education Society-to enlighten the
people and distribute humane literature.
The Astounding cruelty is caused more
by ignorance than by malice. Teach
The people the rights of animals, the
law of kindness; that the use of whips
is costly and cruel and based on the
wrong principle; that the rule of kind
ness pays far better than the rule OF
fear and force; and that Gods way is
always better than mans way. HUI
name teaching is means of grace, q
preparing of the way of the Lord-a
softening of the heart, an ell waiting OF
the character. Children taught to be
kind to all animals are also kind to each
other. Those taught to respect the
rights of animals to happiness will re
spect the rights of men and the claims
Of God-and vice versa.
