John II. Brice brother of Senator
Brice, has been offered the command of the
Ohio Naval Reserve, which is being organ

cities on the lake.
The much Travelled Duchess of Cleve-

Prof. Haddon of Dublin still believes the

lie has, therefore, refused to write the
life of the Irish statesman.
The statement that the queen intenls
to visit Ireland next year is repeated. 1t
is believed that the idea of such a visit
has been entertained, but that no final
decision on the subject has been taken
The queen has paid three visits to Ire
land-in 1919. 1858 and 1861.

Georgia and Florida Tobacco.

1t has been made quite clear by the tes-
timony of tobacco growers given at the
tobacco growers convention at Ocala that
tobacco can be grown in Florida which
is quite as good as any grown in Cuba.
There has been a great deal of dsappoint-
mont at the result of efforts to produce
the best qualities Of tobacco in Florida,
but there are satisfactory reasons for
thinking that the disappointment was due
to a lack of knowledge of the proper meth
DDS for cultivating and curing tobacco. 1t
was stated at the convention that tobac-
co as good as the best produced in the
most favored districts Of Cuba had been
grown near Ocala. Those who produced
this tobacco know the kind Of soil that is
required; also the fertilizers that give the
best results. and are familiar with the
processes for curing tobacco of the high
est grade.
1t seems to us that there is a splendid
future for tobacco culture in Florida and
Southern Georgia. There is a section Of
Southern Georgia in which the soil and
climate are admirably adapted to tobacco,
anu WHEN lAiG hiSAL tAl'i AtiAAp III 'iAD NNA
tivation of tobacco in that section the re-
suits will surpass expectations
AS for Florida, there is no doubt that
there are vast areas of that state that will
produce tobacco in quantities and of a
grade that would make this country prac-
tically Independent of Cuba.
The cultivation and curing of tobacco in
Florida are as yet but imperfectly under
stood by those who are engaged in grow
ing tobacco there. We do not mean to say
they are not enterprising or that they
have not sought diligently for information
in respect to the cultivation of tobacco.
We simply mean that the knowledge that
will bring success will have to come large
ly from experience, and will be obtained
only after numerous failures. The condi-
tions in Florida may be a little different
from those in other tobacco growing local
tiles. Hence. these conditions must be I'M
derstood before complete success can be
obtained. They will be understood event
ually, however and then the tobacco crop
Of Florida will be a great source of wealth
to that state.

The attention of the public is again di-
rected to the milk question. In his an
nual report the health officer says: eff
ever a city needed legislation on any sub
ject, Savannah needs it on the milk ques-
ton. The infant mortality is increased by
the sale of impure milk. The diarrhoeal
troubles Of the spring and summer can
be obviated TO considerable extent by
protective legislation. The milk from cows
kept in filthy yards and fed on Stops and
other waste matter cannot be wholesome
food for either adults or infants. These
cows are housed in narrow. dirty yards
with offensive privy vaults in close proXim-
ity. With few exceptions the persons
milking these cows are dirty, the vessels
in which the milk is placed are unclean,
and if there is any redeeming feature to
the milk business, so far as the milk from
cows kept inithe city is concerned, it has
never been revealed during four years in
spection. There are few isolated cases
where the above conditions do not exist"
We have no doubt that what the health
officer says is correct, but what are we
going to do about it? Are we going to let
the peddlng of impure milk go on, bring
ing, as it does, disease and death into our
homes? 1t looks so. For many years this
milk question has been periodically agi-
tated, and yet nothing has been done to-
wards providing a remedy for this evil
of which the health officer again COM
plains. tHt
What can be done to arouse the people to
the Importance of this matter? viii any
thing less than an epidemic of some one
of the diseases which are due to impure
milk arouse them?
Perhaps they don't think the impure
milk evil is as great as the health officer
thinks it is? Are they qualified to have
an opinion in regard to the matter? If
they are doubters wouldn't it be better to
be on the safe side. The safe side is to
stop the sale of impure milk.
All the dirty stables in the city are
not equal in value to the life of one child.
The health officer gives the public to un-
derstand that the milk sold from the cows
kept in these close, dirty stables, and fed
upon Stops gathered here and there, is a
fruitful cause of diseases from which chill
dren suffer during certain seasons of the
year. If the health officer is right, and
we have no reason to doubt that he is,
the health commissioners have a splendid
opportunity to render the city great ser
vice.

1t seems to be the general opinion that
President-elect Mckinley will recognize
the south by appointing one southern man
to a secretaryship in his cabinet. That
manner of stating the case is offensive.
The President-elect should know no north,
and no south, in making up his cabinet as
well as in his other official acts. If he
should discover that the men he needs
in his official family live in the southern
section of the country, he should select
them, without regard to geographical di-
visions. The south does not care three
straws about recognition" in the cabi-
net. AS a matter of fact, If she were pro-
perly recognized" she would have at
least one-third of the cabinet: and any
thing short of full and proper "recogni-
ton" especially when it is advertised,
is an affront.

When Congressman and Senator-elect
Money went to Cuba. during the Christ
mas vacation, It was supposed that he
was going in search Of trustworthy in
formation for bis own use in the con-
gressional debates, and his expedition was
considered rather commendable than
otherwise; but since Il has been found
that he went as a newspaper correspond
ent and used his official position to secure
not only confidential Information from
the officials in Cuba, but also state se-
crets from Consul General Lee. his action
appears not merely discourteous TO Spain.
but little short Of treacherous to his own
government. and Il may involve this
country IN serious trouble. II will proba-
bly, be impossible to make the nations be-
lieve that il was the personal act OF a
notwithstanding politician and not the
official action OF a member OF the United
States government 1t probably will not
hurt Money but it detracts from the
dignity Of the United States.
