Regret His Departure.

The retirement of Brother Car
penter from the pulpit of this church
affects the League of Tallahassee to
a sensible degree.
During the few years of It's exist
ence as an organized body here it has
never been in so prosperous a condi-
ton as now, its members are more in
number, greater in faith for their flu
ture and stronger than ever be-
fore in the cause of the Master. To
whose efforts do we feel that we owe
our present condition? To none
other than to our passing minister,
Brother Carpenter.
My Dear Sir, l beg to assure you
on behalf of this body that your go
ing to other fields leaves a place va
cant in our League chambers, never
to be filled, unless in the ways OF
Providence you again are called to
us or by us.
We regret that your ministration
to US is SO soon to become a thing
gone by, and we earnestly desire that
you carry with you not only the
slight souvenir of affection presented
to you to day, but that you carry in
your heart. to your new home, the
knowledge that we, each of Us, sin.

eral hundred people and crowds of
children from the neighboring plan
tatiOns congregated and viewed the
dissOlving pictures with great ex-
pressiOns of delight The scenes in
the life of Christ, such as 0Christ
preaching in the Synagogue" "Christ
at Lazarus Tomb" etc, by Tissot-
seemed to impress them almost with
superstitious awe.
A musical entertainment followed,

appeal for the colored people at one

One of the notable disclosu res of
the recent, census is the great In
crease in the population of Florida,
which has increased As per cent. in
ten years, the gain of Florida be-
tween 1870 and 1890 being at an al
most Identical ratio. At the close OF
the civil war the total population
of Florida was 100000, and $4,000
by the census of 1880. 1t is now

Committee are from these States.

members of the River and Harbor
Committee are from these States.
Naturally the harbors and rivers
which need improving, with the ex-
ception of the Mississippi river, are
in the coast States. That explains
why it is that the bulk of the appro-
priations go to less than one half of
the States of the Union. And it is
but natural that the members of the
River and Harbor Committee should
be from those States. They know
more about the needs of rivers and
harbors than do members who live
in interior States.
"But because the coast States get
the bul TX of the river and harbor ap-
preparations it does not follow that
the interior States do not get any
benefits from them. The products
of the interior States, those of the
farms as well as those of the factories,
have to go to the seaboard on their
way to foreign markets. The ocean
freight rates depends largely upon
the condition of the rivers leading
to the sea and the harbors. Good
harbOrs mean lower rates from the in
terror to the sea. Lower ocean and
river rates mean higher prices to the
producers in the interior. Therefore
interior States are about as deeply
interested in river and harbor appro-
priations as are the coast States. The
only advantage the coast States have
over the interior States in the matter
of river and harbor appropriations
is that improved harbOrs contribute
to the growth of the seaport cities.
"Evidently Mr.. Cushman, in attack
ing the River and Harbor bill, aimed
to get an opportunity to make a
speech rather than to complain of
injustice done interior States. 1t can
hardly be otherwise than that he un-
derstands the situation thoroughly.
If there were real force in the point
he made it would have attracted the
attention of the interior States long
before Mr.. Cush nan made it the sub
ject of a speech"

SOUTHERN REPRESENTATION.

During the debate on the Hopkins
reapportionmentbhl a vote was taken
incidentally which may be considered
approximately test of the strength
in the House of the proposition to
reduce the representation of those
States that have adopted constitu-
tional amendments which disfrsn-
chise large part of the negro vote.
I A motion to embody the principle
of the Crumpacker bill in the reap
portiOnment act was defeated by q
vote of lis to IS. !
1t seems to be generally conceded
that the Crumpscker bill is dead, for
this session, at least, and that the
prospect of It's revival is dim.
1t cannot be denied that there is
constitutional authority for such leg
islatiOD, but the more level-headed
Republicans are convinced that even
its agitation is impolitic.
President Mckinley is known tc
be opposed to any attempt to reduce
the proportionate representation Of
the South, and to have used his in.
fluence to discourage any tendency
in that direction. Like efforts have
been made by other Republicans
high in power and influence. 1t il
probable that the Republican party
is not displeased with the elimination
of a large part of the negro vote in
the South, as it will relieve them Of
much of the pressure of the negro
politicians of the South for officia
recognition.
The idea of building up white
Republican party in the South Ii
gaining favor with the Republican
leaders rapidly, and it is admitted
that such an attempt will be utterly
hopeless SO long as the negro is the
recipient of his present share of off
clal favOrs, or anything like it.-At

Ex-Governor Bloxham, in retiring

have the consolation of knowing that
it was perhaps only a constitutional
provision that prevented him from
being able to be his own successor,

day was red letter day in the Cap

saying that Judge Jennings will

cial to be proud of. A servant of the
people and not a boss of the people

puts it.-Lakeland Sun.
Florida's new Governor, Judge
W. S. Jennings, was inaugursted last
Tuesday with imposing ceremonies,
and the Record predicts that he will
make for the State one of the best
governors she has ever had. His
administration will be a wise and
progressive one, and the interests of
Florida and her people will be his
constant aim to protect and advance,
-DeLand Record.
In bis inaugural address at Talla-
hassee, Tuesday Governor Jennings
touched upon at least two subjects
that will strike a popular chord
throughout the State. The two sub
jects to which we have reference are
first, ga uniform and equal rate Of
taxation, and second, e'public school
system development" Abiding to
the former, the governor urges the
creation of a State board of equaliza.

The next Legislature of Florida
should make an effort to equalize
taxes. The member or members
who can reach proper conclusion in
this direction will deserve, and un.
undoubtedly receive, thanks of a suf.
fering people. If the taxes of Flor.
ida were equalized, assessments
would be lowered, the revenue would
be increased, and the material vel.
fare of the people as a whole would
be greatly advanced. The peoples

William S. Jennings, who was on
Tuesday, with fitting ceremony, in
augurated Governor of Florida, en-
tiers upon his important duties under
extremely suspicious circumstances
He begins his administration with
the State upon the threshold of an
era of progress and prosperity that
promises to be unequaled in all itE

undivided party, and he assumes
Office with the question of the right
of the! white man to rule, which has
distracted the South so many years
forever settled. Thus the way il

the interests of his State, and We

Gov. BIoxham's Popularity.

The Florida Journal, in referring
to one of Governor Bloxham's pecu-
liarities, which retained for him
thousands of friends in all sections
of the State, says:
civilian D. Bloxham can now
write an x before his name. He
has made the best governor that
Florida has ever had by all odds, and
he will be remembered as the only
man who thus far served the State
twice in that capacity. Urbane, pol
ished and dignifed, Mr. BlOxham is
a fine specimen of the southern gen.
tleman of the good old school, and
one, moreover, who is gifted with an
elO4uence peculiarly his own. Those
who enjoyed the governors &C
quaintance will not fail to recall one
of his peculiarities, and one which
doubtless contributed much to his
popularity. He never forgot a face
or the man that went with it. He
may have met you but once, and that
may have been, let US say, two years
ago, but encounter him on the streets
of Tallahassee, of Jacksonville or
Tampa-it mattered not where
and that cordial greeting, properly
labeled and addressed, was certain
to ring out. The instructive power
of memorizing names4and faces. is a
great gift-especially fora politician,
and that is what, in the best sense,
William d. Bloxham has always
been.F
