pie not to old to travel, living i'm
northern states, should escape the rig
ors of a northern winter by coming
to DeLand. There are thousands of
old and feeble folks all through the
north who could add many years to
their life and make it also more COM
Portable by coming for the winter to
our city. Florida is a paradise for
children. We have no diphtheria,
very little true Group, or scarlet fever,
whilemeasles and whooping-cough are
robbed of most of their terrors. On
account of it's dry climate DeLand is
especially adapted to the cure of all
catarrhal affections of either nose.
throat or lungs chronic bronchitis, hay
fever first stages of consumption, al
so all rheumatic or neuralgia diseases
All complaints common to old age are
wonderfully relieved by a winters
residence in our mild and equable
climate. In fact this part of Florida
is desirable for all people who ought
to lead an outdoor life in winter as
we'll as summer, and these are legion.
Of late years we have had no mala-
ria in DeLand, and typhoid fever has
become practically extinct. Of
course there is sickness and ill health,
what place or community is entirely
exempt? The character of our diseases
is mainly congestive and that most
often of either the liver or of the ali
mentary canal and it's adnexia.
In conclusion we may say that De-
Land, with it's exceptionally healthy
climate, with it's smoothly paved
streets, with its pure water, it's cleo
trio lights, it's advanced schools, it's
churches, and last but not least, it's
enterprising and progressive citizens,
is an ideal winter resort, to which, if
it's advantages were well known as
they deserve to be, thousands of the
and healthy would come from all
parts.

Favor of Putting New Boundaries In Of

Articles alleging that Nike Sutton, the
new revenue collector, inspired and abat
ed by Cy Leland. had decreed that Wicn-
ita cannot have a deputy revenue coiiec-
tor al Wichita because the Sedgwick
county delega ton did nor support MIN
as delegate 10 the ST. Louis convention,
has been going the rounds Of the press,
and a reporter Of the Eagle saw NJ.
Eckstein, warm friend of Mr.. Sutton,
in relation 10 the matter.
Mr.. Eckstein says he cannot under
stand how such a statement could orig
mate except for political purposes.
IN the first place" said Mr.. Eckstein,
M. Sutton was not on Leland's slaie
and as one Of the supporters Of Mr..
Sutton in that fight l know the facts.
Then, any man who knows Mike Sutton
knows that ne is not 50 small that he
would hold a grudge against a comnuni-
ty because its delegates to a convention
chose 20 exercise their privilege OF vot-
ing against him. Sutton is too broad
and liberal minded a man TO stoop so
low. II is all nonsense, AMI made out of
whole cloth.
Il have letter from Mr.. Sutton, in
which he informs me OF the reasons OF
the discontinuance Of the office Of
stamp Deputy here. In the letter he
says: 1t was done by the department
to cut down expenses and aid in the
plan 10 estab lish a district in kansas
Of that territory south of the Union Pa
cifc railroad including the Seventh con-
gressional district which is now in the
district with Oklahoma and the Chicka-
saw nation, and placing a regular depu-
~ revenue collector over ii. This Will
be greater convenience and more i'm
portant to both the service and Wichita,
and besides would give TO Kansas ard
Oklahoma. home rule
Mr.. Sutton mas many warm personal
friends in Wichita and this talk about
revenge is all bosh. Personally l know
of no official declaration that the head
quarters would not be established in our
vicinity and il comes with i'll grace TO
criticise without some foundation for
such remarks
One Of the articles alluded TO and
which Mr.. Sutton enclosed in his letter
to Mr.. Eckstein, reads:
The carrying out of the order Of
Michael Sutton. internal revenue colloc-
tor, aoolishing the Office at Wichita, is
causing considerable annoyance in
southern Kansas and Oklahoma It is
said that Sutton decided that Wichita
should not have a deputy collector be-
cause the Sedgwick county delegation to
the Republican state convention a year
ago did not support him for delegate 10

that the new collector Is supported by
Cy Leland"

Work VIII be Done the South Main
Street Line.
Yesterday afternoon at o'clock the
directors of the new street car company
met in the Office Of Messrs. Stanley &
Vermilion and proceeded to elect officers
Cor the ensuing year. The session was
a short one but business Of importance
was transacted, beside the formulating
OF plans for the future.
The following officers were unanimous
ly chosen:
Mr.. H. B. Church, president.
Mr.. ". @. Church, vice president and
general manager.
Mr.. a. C. Jobes, secretary and treas
urer.
Mr.. r. r. Vermilion, attorney.
Mr.. w F Ellis IS said To be the larg-
est stockholder. He is a director but he
has so many other interests throughout
the country that he could not give his
personal attention 10 the Wichita COM
pany, and selected Mr.. Church president
Stock was subscribed to the full
amount Of the capital stock, which is
$500, 900. It was tn lght advisable 10
hurry the work OF putting in the line.
There seems to ne a big rush at all the
electrical and car plants throughout the
country and it was the opinion Of
MessrS Church and Ellis that the work
might be detained on account of the
crowded condition OF the factories. Mr.
Church left last night for st. Louis
mediate service.
The first work to be done will be on
the South Main street line 50 that the
road will be in condition for the fair.
The company will soon bring an expert
engineer here to 60 over the lines and
see which will be continued and where
the new lines will be laid. The officials
think that there viii be no material
change Of the old lines and that several
new extensions will be made which will
greatly improve the facilities for riding.
Active work will not likely begin until
about the first OF October. The advisa-
bility of running a line down Central
avenue to Griswold park and crossing
the Little river 10 Riverside was thor
oughly talked over, but no definite &C
ton was taken. The idea of running the
Fairmount line out Oak street to the
cemetery, thence up to the college is an
other OF the proposed improvements.
Just what will be done will depend great
~ on the advice of the civil engineer.
