sumed all of these products, or furn-
ished a market forSthem, it would be
different, but jacksonville does not
regulate such pides; but Savannah,
New York, Chicago and other places
to which they arei shipped, fix such
prices. If we votb for Jacksonville.
Can. these politicians guarantee an in
creasein our pricesS No. Why not?
Because it is Impossible, and because
the law of supply hnd demand fixes
all prices.
Jacksonville in her pamphlet saws,
your State Convention has decided
that the time has dOme when the in
terests Of Florida idemand that the
future location of the Capital shall be
decided by you. This is not true.
The Convention M Rde no such decis-
ion. The politicians are misrepre-
senting their actid b. We all know
of the conditions (which existed at
that time, and fHlther know that
schemes and political trading was the
cause of the questid in being permitted
to be submitted to the voters. Jack
sonVille says it was agitated because
of the bad repair Of the building; but
a great number of the delegates to
that convention h$ve never visited
Tallahassee, have .never seen the
building, and the before could not
know what was itss condition. 1t is
not in the condition these few poll
ticians would have you believe it is in.
IF it was in such repair, and if the in
terest of Florida demanded a new
one, why did not Governor Perry, of
Pensacola, Cover Tor Mitchell, of
Tampa, Governor fleming, of Jack
sOnViIIe, and Governor Bloxham, of
Tallahassee, call tho attention of the
Legislature to it in their messages to
that body? The laR required them
to call the attention. of the Legisla-
ture to whatever was needed for the
States good. Did hny one of them
do SOP No. Why mot? Because it
was all right Wers they not good
Governors! Yes. AS good as Flor
ida ever had, or ever will have. If
any one of them had neglected such
an important interes, then why was
the administration . Il each one en-
dOrsed by your Stage Conventions?
This proves, then, tISat there is 10th
ing the matter with the building, al
though the politicians say differently.
Which will you believe?
Arguing from standpoint of ex-
pense, Jacksonville says that her
100000, with $4,000 of the States
money, will erect a fvery nice one;"
