Not a Campaign speech.

The statement that John Feland
Jr., made speech at the court house
Saturday afternoon in the interest of
the Republican ticket was a mistake
Mr. Feland made speech, but the
reporter was misinformed as to the
character of it. His address was the
closing argument in the McComb's
case and was not of political nature.
Mr.. Feland has not made any politi-
cal speeches this season and has out
no appointments. While in Louis
vile Monday his shoulder was dislo-
Gated and he is still suffering from
his injury. While sitting in the court
room, one leg of his chair slipped off
the edge of a platform, throwing him
down several steps, injuring him as
above stated. 1t is not likely that he
will be heard on the stump this fall.

FLORIDA TOBACCO GROWERS.
Held Meeting at the Centennial wedn

Held a Meeting at the Centennial wednes-
day.
The Nashville American of We'd
nesday gave this account of a meet
ing of tobacco men from Florida:
This morning the Florida Tobacco
Growers will assemble at the Plant
System space, in the Agricultural
Building, to receive and welcome all
who care to view the exhibit of Flor
ida tobacco, or care to make any in
quiries about Florida or her great to-
bacco industry.
The exhibit is a very creditable
one, and is decidedly interesting.
The tobacco show is the very highest
grade cigar leaf tobacco. It's texture,
aroma and colors are all calculated to
catch the fancy Of the American pub
lie, and establish Florida tobacco in
the place so long occupied by the
Cuban product. Before the war
Florida tobacco was famous. It was
largely sold in Germany and the vet
erans in the trade can recall incidents
of the Florida speckled leaf bringing
fabulous prices. This same speckled
leaf forms large part of the present
crop and can be seen on exhibition
to-day.
An interesting study can be made
to-day by those in our own and ad,
joining States. The Florida tobacco
growers receive on an average 40
cents a pound for their pole cured to
bacco, and those who are able to
carry it through the final curing pro,
cess have obtained an average of 81
a pound. An acre will produce 700
pounds of tobacco, twice a year, in
South Florida, showing a. handsome
profit for those who engage in its cul-
ture.

KILLED 1T FOR ALL TINE.
House VIII Not Allow the ManUfact-
ure OF Migrants.

Not many days ago Representative
Mcdonald introduced a bill QI. =. 16)
to declare any person having the repu-
tatiOn Of being thief burglar, etc,
Vagrant and to fix a penalty there
fore.
The bill in due course went to the
committee on crimes and punishment
any yesterday was sent back with the
recommendation for indefinite post
ponement affixed to it. Before the re-
port had been adopted several of the
Ramsey members were on their feet
and asked that the bill be referred
back to the committee. The vote to
do this was lost and Representative
Scott arose and still urged that the COM
mittee be given another chance at it.
He explained that the bill was a nee,
essary one and was drawn to cover
the cases of several confidence men and
workers who could not otherwise be
reached. Several members from out
side the city agreed that the measure
might reach these Objectionable fell
lows, but pointed out that it could also
be used by several unprincipled per-
sons to ruin any man if the bill be-
came law.
Mr.. Scott asked that it be sent back
for any needed amendments, but there
was objection Representative Nc
end, and asked to have the bill sent
to the judiciary, but was beaten after
calling for a rising vote. Mr.. Donnelly,
in mercy, suggested that the bill might
be sent on general orders, but that he
would favor putting it down.
Judge LittletOn said: "I doubt if any
lawyer could draft a bill for this pur-
pose which would be constitutional. I
have never heard the term outlaw de-
fined. If there could be a bill made I
still think it would be an outrage to
pass it. The present bill is dangerous
to society and certainly not constitu-
tiOnal"
Representative Jones added his mite
by declaring dramatically that he
would prefer putting his right hand in
fiery furnace to voting for the meas
ure. And so it was put down for good
and all, Notwithstanding which Judge
Hicks later on asked to have the mat
ter reOpened but without avail.
