The city Of Chelsea is preparing

whole country that can show finer
stock or better farm or orchard
products than Chelsea, and the
people are taking the right course
to stimulate an interest in all those
lines.

1t is too bad that Judge Thomas
cannot occasionally show what is
law without being reported as
knocking at the Curtis bill. Some
time ago Curtis declared that the
Wagner and Muskogee townsite
commissions were not appointed
properly and that their appraise-
ment was illegal and not in ac-
cordance with the provisions of
the Curtis bill. A little later
Judge Thomas declared the same
thing from the bench and now a
number of papers are making
roar about the unconstitutionality
of the Curtis bill. The Courier is
not defending all portions of the
bill, and is of the opinion that
portions are not good law, but en-,
tire bill is not necessarily void be-
cause one portion is little off COL

For long time we have doubt
ed the necessity for an armed
force of men constantly on the
streets of Vinita. This doubt has
grown into a conviction, and now
we are sure that it is not only
unnecessary, but an absolute and
unqualified evil. 1t bellies the
peaceful habits, and good, orderly
everyday conduct of our people.
The exigencies of the case do not
demand the constant paroIling of
our streets with armed men. II
is well for the officers of the law to
hsve their guns where they can be
easily reached in case they are
needed, but to see a num-

Shielded Orange Groves.

Mr.. John B. Stetson, of DeLand, now
has 80 acres Of shielded orange grove.
The groves are in fine condition, luxu-
riantly green and healthy. There is a
little fruit on some of the trees which
have been protected for two years or
more, but not enough to ship. The sheds
are from IL to Is feet in height, and have
comparatively close tops or roofs. At
first the sheds cost from 500 to $500 an
acre, but this has been reduced to about
$3.50 per acre, and perfection has almost
been attained in their construction. 1t
has been found that the trees under par
tial shade make as fine or finer growth
as when outside, that less fertilizer is
necessary, and a thinner-skinned, smooth
er and brighter orange is produced. Ar
rangements for heating the shielded or
chards are complete. Under the close
sheds there will be twelve fires to the
acre, built in salamanders, of coke, which
gives tremendous heat but little smoke.

Advantages Of the Poor Farm.

The Kissimmee Valley Gazette, in re-
producing an editorial which appeared in
THE STAR two weeks ago, makes the fol-
lowing comments IN favor of a county
poor farm:
The success of the Osceola county poor
farm is often quoted as the reason for the
abandonment by other counties of the
old pauper pension list system, and our
example has been followed in several
counties.
There can be no question of the adyan-
tages OF the poor farm system, especially
if the farm shows an annual profit, as
ours has shown for the past four years.
The objections to the pauper list are:
That it is a temptation to people, who
are quite able TO provide for their poor
relatives, to shirk this responsibility and
make the county shoulder it; that it is a
constant drain on the treasury without
any income; that it offers an opportunity
To politicians TO use the treasury for po-
litical purposes; that it is paternalism on
a small scale, and breeds beggary and
fraud. On the other hand the poor farm
achieves all the ends of charity without
any of the evils of the pauper list. 1t
was soon found in this county that only
the deserving poor, the genuine cases of
distress, went to the poor farm. Then,
financially speaking, the change made an
immense difference. A heavy annual
charge was turned into a handsome
profit, without any evasion of the public
responsibility of caring for the needy and
poor. While it may not fall to the lot Of
every county to secure for a poor farm an
income bearing orange grove, still We are
sure it would pay every county to discard
the pauper pension list.

Death of Mrs. Beggs.

Recently the death of Mrs Beggs took
place in her youngest sons home in
Georgia. She was the mother of Judge
]. ID. Beggs, of Orlando, states attorney
for the Seventh judicial circuit, and the
people of the whole east coast will ex-
tend deep sympathy to the judge in the
bereavement he has sustained.
Mrs. Ann Dunbar Beggs died at the
residence of her youngest son, Charles
7. Beggs, at Pavo, Thomas county, Ga,
and was buried in the family cemetery at
Madison, Fla. Mrs. Beggs was life
long Baptist, gentle Christian woman,
greatly beloved by a wide circle of friends
who will profoundly sympathize with
her distinguished sons, Judge James ID.
Beggs, of Orlando, and also Judge +. ID.
Beggs, of Pensacola, worthy sons of a
good mother.

know where they are. Will our
brother editor of the Democrat
please state them?
We don't know what the tax
rate of Alabama is, but it cannot
be much lower than that of Flori-
da, and if this is the real cause of
the vigorous kick" West Florida
is making for annexation to anoth-
er state it is certainly very poor
one, for there is no telling by the
time she is annexed to Alabama,
those people up there are moving
people, and they are likely to Gre
ate much higher tax rate than
Florida has ever asked for.

The Annexation Movement.

One of our exchanges in Suwan-
nee county seems to be very appre-
hensive of the movement in West
Florida to annex a part of this state
to Alabama. 1t says:
"The legislature of Alabama took
the matter up short time ago, and
enacted such measures as were
necessary to put the project in mo-
ton. 1t is fact that a great many
of the people in West Florida favor
the change, and most of them give
as a reason the burdensome rate of
taxation in Florida"
We thought the people of Flori-
da had been congratulating them
selves on our excellent financial
condition and fairly low rate of
taxation. Our Suwannee brother
is very anxious TO have the next
legislature relieve the tax bur
den-anxious for them to do some
thing which will relieve the entire
commonwealth and cut off extrav-
agant expenditures of state govern
ment.
This is a new one on us, we must
confess, but we like to be enlight-
ened, of course. If there are ex-
travagant expenditures in our state
government, we would like to

Golf on the East Coast.

The Jacksonville Times Union and
Citizen says that the outlook for the east
coast golf tournament this year is bright
for large attendance of fine players.
More interest even than heretofore has
been shown in golf circles all over the
country this winter, and this means that
as midwinter approaches the players will
flock to Florida, where the temperature
is just sufficiently bracing to make the
sport most enjoyable. The various links
are being put in readiness for the season
now, and later the programme of the
tournaments will be announced. The
eighteen hole links at Palm Beach are
practically ready for play now. With
the splendid turf at Palm Beach, this
course is considered one of the very best in
the south and many players say it has no
equal. Although it will be less than
5000 yards, it is held that longer course
is not desirable in Florida. 1t is ex-
pected that there will be several minor
tournaments early in the month of JAN
uary, the dates Of which have not been
announced. During the latter part of
January the tournament for the Presi-
dents cup will be played, and this will
probably be the first notable event of the
east coast season.

An interesting Question.

Commenting on Mr.. Cleveland's
article on the future policy of the
Democratic party in the Saturday
Evening Post, the New York Sun
says:
"Whether Bryan or a Democrat
of the opposing school will then
Tin 1900 represent Democratic
sentiment cannot now be foreseen.
The south, in 1900 the sole remain
ing stronghold of Democracy, is
passing through complete trans
formation and becoming one of the
most enterprising and richest parts
of the Union. What will the
southern Democracy demand in
19O4?"
The question as to what the
southern Democracy will demand
in 1904 in an interesting one. 1t
would of course please the Sun if
it were certain it would pursue a
course that would open the way
for a white Republican party in
the south. 1t is not likely, how
ever, that its policy will be in the
interest of the Republican party.
The Savannah News notes that
there were indications in the last
campaign that in future the south
would not be so willing as it had
been to follow Democratic leader
ship of other sections of the cOun-
try. 1t has views of its own, which
it will insist upon presenting when
the proper time arrives. One of
the reasons for the light vote in
every one of the southern states
in the last national election was
the dissatisfaction of Democrats
with their party platform. Bust
ness and industrial interests are
becoming such powerful factors in
the south's material affairs that
their influence will be felt TO a
greater extent than ever before in
her politics in the next four years.

ADDITIONAL representation in the
house of representatives at Wash
ington from this state will cause a
general stir among the many men
who will be aspirants for the new
position of third Congressman.
Whether he will be elected from
the state at large, or whether a new
district shall be created, Demo-
Graf he will surely be. There are,
perhaps, dozen or two men in
the state who would be more than
pleased to set in the representative
hall at Washington, but it is also
doubtful if any one of those men
with congressional "bees in their

coveted position. The people can

ASTRONOMERS are bringing for
ward numerous theories to explain
the Gegenschein. the bright patch
that sometimes CLOVIS mysteriously
in the midnight sky. The light
occurs near the celestial equator,
but usually two or three degrees
removed from exact opposition to
the sun, and is generally believed
to have no connection with the
earth's atmosphere. A plausible
view, not wholly satisfactory, is
that it is a reflection from the ring
of fragments to which the asteroids
belong. Another suggestion is that
it is a comet-like tail of hydrogen
and helium streaming away from
the earth in a direction opposite to
the sun, while many connect the
phenomenon with the meteOric
ring producing the zodiacal light.
