Herald representative standing on

How much country did you get
over IN vour travels?''
Well, TO make long story short,
we went from Washington to Charles
ton, s. o., where we spent several
DAYS at the Charleston Exposition.
From there we went to Jacksonville
Florida, where we spent two days,
after which we went to Tampa, we
spent several DAYS at the Tampa Bay
Hotel
AT Tampa Bav we took a boat
for Cuba, stopping enroute at Key
West, where / inspected the new
Fish Commission station that has
been established at that place.
1--WE next landed in the Harbor of
Havana. We stopped four DAYS in
the capital of the Gem of the Antil-
les. / found Havan very clean,
pleasant city and one of the best
places for a winter resort that have
ever visited. 1t seems that at almost
any corner of the world one happens
to strike, he always runs across some
old acquaintance from Martinsburg.
In Havana | saw Prof. Brockenshlre,
q former leader of the Martinsburg
City Band, and e. w. VanMetre. who
Is employed in the Havana postoffce.
Prof Brockenshire is now leader
of the military band at the Columbus
Barracks. Mr.. VanMetre holds an
important position in the Havana
postotfice and is spok EN- of very high
lv by the postmaster and the clerks.
Both Prof. Brockenshire and Mr..
VanMetre kept me busy answering
questions about their old acquaintan
ces and every thing going on III Mar
tinsburg.
after spending four days in the
Citv of Havana we sailed for the
shores If Uncle Sam. Landing at MI
ANAL. we stopped at the Royal Palm
Hotel and saw DR.. Moore, noted
scientist who is conducting expert
ments In that vicinity in the interest
of the Fish Commission.
From Miamai we went to Palm
Beach, where we spent short time
and then went to st Augustine. Fla,
where we had short but very pleas
ant stay at the Ponce de Leon. From
there we went back to the starting
point of our trip to the South.
q After spending se-eral more DAYS
taking in the sights at the Charleston
Exposition, we started for home. ar
irving in Washington yesterday morn

Hon. Pleasant A. stovnII.

From the Atlanta Constitution, May 13.
Although strongly importuned by his
fellow-citizens in Savannah and en-
Enthusiastically urged by a large section
of the Georgia press to become can
didate for representative from Chat
ham county in the General Assembly,
Hon. Pleasant A Stoval editor of the
Savannah Press, yet hesitates to an
nounce for the position.
1t is we'll known that the Democracy
of Chatham is divided into two strong
factions that fight each other for party
honors with vim and enthusiasm, and
it is doubtless because he does not
desire to enter into a heated contest
with either side that Mr.. StoVal re-
Trains, with his usual love of peace
and native modesty, to become a can
didate for the legislative office. How
ever, to those away from Chatham
who know the charming personality
the exceptional abilities and compel
ling eloquence of Mr.. Stovall, 1t seems
an opportune time for both elements
of the Democracy in that county to
abandon mere fractional preferences
and united to secure for themselves
representative who will so notably
serve and reflect honor upon the
county.
Mr.. Stovall is a man big enough in
heart and broad enough in brain to
rise above the local considerations
that make the factions and give the
interests of both clans and to the
whole people that expert and equita-
BILE service that will be acceptable to
all and make them feel common
pride in his craftsmanship and influ-
ence upon the great affairs of the
commonwealth. Chatham county has
contributed in times past some of the
brainiest and most efficient leglsla-
tors who have helped forward the
progress of the state, but none of
them were better fitted to contribute
wisdom on conservatism to the
states conduct than the brilliant edi-
tor of the Press.
1t would be a great qualification to
his friends throughout Georgia, whose
name is legion, to learn that Mr..
Stovall has been accorded a general
request to become one of Chatham
representatives and that he has yield
ed to such invitation.

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local and General News of Ships
and Shipping.

In shipping circles the effect of oil
shipments to Savannah upon the coal
trade are being discussed. OF course,
little can be told as to the effects yet
as it is not known what interests are
to change from coal to oil fuel 1t
seems probable that there is to be a
let up in the demand for COAL however,
as the company that will bring oil
here doubtless has assurances of a
considerable demand for oil as the ba-
sis of their investment
Savannah is the largest receiver of
coal on the South Atlantic coast The
vessels which come here to load lum-
Der most generally bring coal down. so
that it is carried at very reasonable
rates With these rates it is claimed
that the oil people will be strong COM
petitors and also if there be a mate
rial reduction in them. Some believe
that the oil people knew they could
knock out the coal dealers in many
ways before they decided to distribute
this product from Savannah.
