6 will decide nothing more than
whether the Legislature shall pass a
resolution providing for a change in
the Constitution of the State for the
removal of the Capital to some other
point, and what point shall be named
in the resolution. If a resolution is
passed the amendment must 90 be-
fore all the voters of the State for
their ratification or rejection, and thus
they will have two whacks at it.
Practically the question before the
people, in brief, is whether the Capitol
shall remain at Tallahassee and be
remodeled, and improved to NEE all
the present needs .Of the State, or res
moved to some ther point at the the
great expense of iputting up an en-
tirely new structure. The question
is one of the most important which
has confronted the people of Florida
in decade or more, and It's outcome

"ACCesSibiIitY- -

If there is one word in the English
language which has been made to do
more duty than another, by the Jack
sOnVille politicians in their efforts to
saddle debt of more than a million
dollars on the tax payers to move the
Capital to Jacksonville, it is the word
''acces>ibilitv."
Every time that these gentry, who
are willing for the taxpayers of
Florida TO be bur,iened to death with
taxation in order that their personal
vanity may be gratifed, opens their
mouth on the subject of Capital re-
moval, they are sure to, bring in the
argument of accessibility"
1t was said of the pied piper of
Hamlin that,
''The only tune he could play
Was over the hills and far away"
and it can be truthfully be said of
these Jacksonville, wyer-politicianS,
who are anxious for the tOilers and
labOrerS of our State to be taxed one
million dollars IN order that they
may have the Supreme Court library
carried to Jacksonville for their es-
pecially benefit, that
The only song that they can sing,
Is accessibility is the thing.
We suppose, that what they mean
by this long, high-faluting word, SAC
ceSsibiIity" is, that Jacksonville can
be reached from other parts of the
State more quickly than can Talla-
hassee.
Suppose the argument be true,
then not one person in a hundred
would care one copper. The labor
ing man never visits the State Cdpi-
tai. The doctors, dentists and me-
chanics don't go there. The mer-
chants have no business there. The
turpentine men, the saw mill men
and the crosstie men never 90 near
it, and the farmers visit the moon Just
as often as they do the State Capital.
Legislators, lawyers and politicians
are the only persons who ever have
any business at the State Capital and
they go only when they are paid for
it. The legislator gets ten cents a
mile for every mile he travels, which

And all this, because Jacksonvino
has 6S5 miles of accessibility" which
is worth $34.25 a year.
The already oTerburdened tar-
payers of the State will do this, of
course they will, but it will be when

His Life Was Saved.

Mr.. J. E. Lilly. prominent citizen of

is more than he paysl and cOnse-
he wouldn't caE9 if the Capt.
tai were in the Philippines. for the
farther he goes the mOih he makes.
The lawyer always makes his clients
pay his expenses and he would
charge just as much forI going up to
the Supreme Court, iii the Capital
were across the street ftom his Office,
as he does to go to Tallahassee. And
the politicians who visit tbe Ca ital in
such large numbers VIII lie the Legis-
ture is in session, so ma nv of whom
are from Jacksonville, get pay from
their employers before they start on
the journey.
As matter of, fact, the farmers,
mechanics and IabOreiS of Florida
don't care row of ping whether any
of these gentlemen gqE one mile or
five hundred to reach she Capital; it
is no concern of theirsi si@hatever.
But, when it GOMEZ to the point
that they must be taxah one million

stltpe, why they'll seq the last one

But, let us look a lifIa farther into
ths accessibility" bu}ln ess:
The distance fromE. every county
seat in the State Of Florida by the
ne breast and most direct practicable
roslte to Tallahassee, when all added
together, is 8,035 miles, while the
distance, estimated in The same man.
ner, from all these county seats to
Jacksonville is I, $50 miles, distance
in, favor of Jacksonville of 6S5
miles. Then measured from all the
county seats in the State, and the
several distances all added together,
Jacksonville's accessibility" in cold
figures is just GS5 miles.
! Now then, the question is, how
much does TallahaS>ee'S lack of this
6s5 miles of "accesSibilitv" cost the
taxpayers Let's see. There Is 6S5
miles more of mileage to be paid to
Legislators at Tallahassee, than would
be paid to them if the Capital were
! at Jacksonville. At ten cents a
mile this amounts to eigty-eight dol
lars and fifty cents ateyery session
OF the Legislature. The Legislature
meets but once i'll two years, hence,
the cost is 1hirty-four dollars and
twenty-five cents a: wear, conse-

AS Others See It.

Jacksonville now has her orators
out on spellbinding tours for the pur-
pose of trying to demonstrate to the
people of the State why they should
vote for the removal of Florida's
seat of government from Tallahassee
to that city. Hon. Frank Clark, who
appears to be leading the movement
in behalf of Jacksonville, fired the
opening gun at DeLand, where he
presented the other day a carefully
prepared argument to show that his
city is the only logical site for the
Florida State house. In brief, Mr..
Clark's arguments in favor of Jack
sonville- are its accessibility
its ability to furnish
the necessary conveniences and
facilities for the transaction of the
States business, its offer of $4,000
in cash toward the new building, be-
sides other considerations in the way
of temporary quarters, and the fact
that DuVal county pays about one
tenth of the States taxes.
Mr.. Clark also called attention at
some length to the present condition
of FlOrida's Capitol which stands to-
day practically as it was constructed
by the Federal government in terri
torial days. 1t may be far from ad-
equate for the accommodation of the
States officials, and the storage OF
the States valuable records. The
fact, however, that the Legislature
has not seen fit to add to and i'm
prove the building, is not an argu-
ment against Tallahassee. AS a
matter of fact as good a building
can be constructed in Tallahassee as
in Jacksonville, Gainesville, Ocala,
or any of the other candidates fol
the seat of government.
AS to accessibility, some of the othel
candidates for the Capitol may entel
the debate with Jacksonville. Here
tOfOre, however, there has been NJ
complaint of the inacceSsibility O.
Tallahassee except from the north
eastern part of the State, and thu
legislators from extreme Southern
Florida have not appeared averse t.
going there, The conveniences nee
essary to the transaction of business
can be procured at any point, if tn,
funds are provided for them. Abou
the only special advantages Jackson
vile has to offer, so far as can b,
seen, are that it is the largest city il
the State, and a gift of $lOO,0O6.OO
: Many Floridians will, doubtless, pom
der long time before they vote fo

ALL OBJECTIONS ANSWER 9D.

ALL ObjESlIOINS AINSWENBO'
In their zeal to establish some Eali'!
reason in favor of Capital rem Pval,
the advocates of that scheme have
misstated the facts concerning the
nrpsent CapitoI building. This
massive building was constr tcted
in the most substantial and duk fable
manner, and is today as safe and
sound as when originally built. gThe
outer and inner walls, from the pun
dation to the roof, are of solid Trick,
each office, or room, being surrou lded
bv brick walls as completely hs a
separate brick building, and thk en-
tire building made practicallya fire
proof.
In this building there is nd such
thing as ''underpinning;" non9 be-
ING needed for house havl lhg a
broad solid brick fOundations Of
course. if there is no ''underpink ling"
it cannot be sdeteriorating," IS al
legged. Several architects and prac-
tieal builders, who have beer atniliar
with the Capitol building for nany
years, certify, after an examiI ation
rece ntly,made, that the fo1n4 4ation
has suffered no deterioration al ID no
mart thereof has required repaik dur
ing the term of years which the1 have
known the structure.
A glaring misstatement of oct is
the allegation that "creosoted floors
hare to be put down constaa tly in
what was originally the cellar f the
building," etc. To begin with there
never was any cellar in the resent
Capitol. There is basemen4 floor
: the rooms of which, being ligs t, dry
airy md healthy, are used by Eevera
of the administrative depaI ment
and by the Adjutant-Generk I. A

A COMPARISON IN FiEALTHFUL.
NESS,

During the year 1899, the death
rate of DuvaI county, according to
the 11th Annual Report of the State
Health Officer, page 2S6, was S2.57
out of every one thousand of popu-
The Weekly Tallahasseean., 1900-08-30

latioD, while that of Leon county for
the same period was only 7.O9. The
death rate of none of the counties in
the State during the year 1899 with
one exception approached the ex-
tremely high death rate of DuvaI
county. In addition to the unhealth
fulness of Jacksonville, which is
conclusiveIy shown BY the above
mentioned Health Report,
as the population Of Duval
county. is largely in the city of
Jacksonville, this city is subject to
recurrent epidemics Of the dread
scourge, yellow fever. The last
epidemic, that of 1888, is still fresh
in the minds of the people. During
the time of the prevalence of the
epidemic, which lasted for several
months, business was paralyzed and
the city almost depOpulated.
Tallahassee is not liable to cpl
denies of yellow fever and is ia
nous for its healthfulness. Would
lit be wise to locate the Capital
permanently i'll a city so liable to
epidemics as Jacksonville, a place
where the State officials would, during
the prevalence Ofyellow fever, either
be forced to remove their offices to
another place, thereby causing great
inconvenience for an indefinite
period in the transaction of the
States business, or remain and run
the risk of death from yellow fever2
JACKSONVILLE'S REAL OBJECT
The city of Jacksonville has been
assiduously laboring for weeks and
months to convince the taxpayers Of
Florida that the agitation of the
Capital question was begun and con-
tinued solely be cause the best inter-
estS of the State demanded a change
in the location Of the Capital. The
true purpose of this attempt to double
the States Indebtedness and deprive
the agricultural masses of the means
with which they are accustomed to
supply the daily wants of their fami-
lies, has been confessed over the sig
natures of the Finance Committee Of
the Jacksonville Capital Association.
In a circular letter, which has be en-
distributed among the taxpayers of
Duval county, this committee says:
awe trust that it is unnecessary to
remind you that this is purely bust
ness matter, inaugurated and pursued
primarily for the purpose Of advanc,
ing JacksOnville's best interest
The Weekly Tallahasseean., 1900-08-30

sort of lovliness that all agree upon is the
beauty of health. No matter what her
features, no sickly woman can be attrac-
tive. Sallow skin, sunken cheeks, pimp1y
face, hollow eyes, lifeleSs hps-these are
repellant. And they can rSarly always
be traced to the one -womanly
weakness or disease. Almost all the ills
of Womanki1d are cured if you put the
feminine organism into healthy, vigorous
condition. All sickness of women seems
to involve these delicate organs and so no
matter what the symptoms NAV be it is
best to look there for the real trouble.
All such disorders are completely and
permanently cured by DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription. 1t is designed for
just this one thing and is the only prep
aration of the sort produced by a regu-
larly graduated physician - skilled
specialist in the diseases of women.
Miss Maud Kenyon, of. 1913 Orange St, Los
Angeles, Cal, writes: II had been afflicted with
my eyes for over year with such a dreadful
itching and Inflammation that could not nee
them for anything. Physicians had given me
many different remedies which were like using
50 much water; they measured nv ewes for
glasses; the glasses did not benefit me in the
least. My mother desired me to write to DR.
R. v. Pierce, at Buffalo, N Y, and explain the
condition Of my eyes. did so, and after follow
ing his advice, and using eight bottles of the
Favorite Prescription and eight of the Golden
MedicaI discovery, can say my trouble Is en-
ureiy removed Ny health was never so good
as It Is now"
