FROM FLORIDA PALMETTO.
A Powerful New Explosive Will BE
Manufactured.


Florida llmeS-C mon.
For the purpose OF manufacturing
a powerful new explosive from
Florida palmetto and other products
of this State, an extensive plant is
to be established at Port Orange by
Prof. James Gresham, the noted
chemist of Brooklyn.
The side has been secured and
work on the building was COM
menced last Wednesday.
Two carloads of machinery are
already on the grounds and several
more carloads are expected in few
days.
Prof. Gresham was at Daytona
last week, and while there informed
a representative of the Gazette News
that his new industry would give
employment to from fifty to sixty
men.
Relative to Prof. Gresham the
Gazette-News says that he is the
inventor of an explosive that is
more powerful than any other
known, and this is what he pro-
poses manufacturing from Florida
products.
The same authority says that
during the Spanish-American War
Prof. Gresham fired small charge
of his explosive at Santiago, and it
shattered all the glass windows in
the city, besides blowing eleven feet
off the end of one of the Spanish
boats.
Prof. Gresham is also the inven-
tor of a new variety of smokeless
powder.

ENVY OF PROFESSIONALS.
According TO This Authority Arch
fleets Have the Least and Ac-
tors Have the Most.

An Italian philosopher, Signor Fer
riani, has amused himself by CON
structing n scale Of degrees for the
measurement Of professional envy,
reports the Buffalo Commercial The
highest point in this envy measurer is
ten. Architects are happily placed
lowest on the scale. They register
only one; advocates, priests and mil
itary men are ranged at two; and in
the ascending scale he gives us pro-
fessors of science and literature four;
journalists, five; authors, eight; ply
fiCians, nine; actors and actresses, ten.
The small amount OF envy among
architects Is held to be due to their
precise, severe and rigid studies. The
same thing applies 10 advocates.
Among the clergy envy Is found most
~ in preachers. In the military career
envy is quieacent in time of peace, but
can become acute in time of war Envy
makes men Of science and literature
lead solitary lives, dinidcnt of each
other. Among physicians envy is still
more prevalent, and they do not spare
their colleagues, often terming them
charlatans. In the theatrical world
envy, according to Signor Ferriani,
reaches its acute form, vanity playing
a great part in its production.

NOT AN tRPEPARABLE LOSS.

Gov. La Fullettes convention held at
Madison last week rendered it impossi
bic for Senator Spooner to seek re-elec-
ton should LaFollette supporters be
dominant in the state legislature, self
respect would prevent him from receiv-
ing anything at the hands Of men who,
perforce, cram principles into his
mouth which he refuses to swallow
The Stalwart Republicans set mp n hne
and cry against the indignity which the
convention heaped upon the senator
alleging that under no circumstances
could the senator be the footstool Of
Gov. La Toilette. II is interesting to
observe. too, in the discussion which il
taking place anent Spooner and the
La Toilette faction of the Republican
party that the Republican papers speak
with apparent certainty that tho next
legislature will elect Republican sena-
tor. 1t il M we'll to bear in mind that
the legislature is yet to be elected and
Democrats stand some show OF electing
their men Ii IL certain If Democrats
are in the majority in the legislature
will be retired anyway. Should he be
retired by the Democrats his loss in the
senate will net be irreparable, though
Stalwart Republicans cay his defeat by
the La Toilette wing of his own party
will be national calamity. What
wonderful elasticity has politics, es-
pecially when certain factions are in
terested in a man or "A cause.

aud is retired to private life the bottom
will not drop out OF the country and We
shall not suffer national calamity
The country will go along prospecting
whether Senator Spooner Ia in the sen.
ate or not. One Of the greatest blessings
to humanity is that no man is essential
to the perpetuity or prosperity OF the
whole or any part Of it. While il is
true that every man who fultills hia
duties in life IL "a useful member Of
society and contributes his quota,
whether big or little. to the develop
ment Of the material things about him,
yet his presence or absence IL not an
absolute necessity. If IT were go man
kind would be in sorry pickle Let
az not shed any tears over the prospec-
tive retirement Of Senator Spooncr.
The senator will likely enjoy life in the
quietude of hir legal sanctum and the
senate will go along just the same m in
the days Of yore.

political administration of state officers

veering toward the Democrats, and this
will be very strong factor to win In
che campaign. The Democrats must be
wise in framing platform, they must
be wiser in choosing man TO stand
upon it. Who the candidate will b.
the convention must say, but he should
be chosen with deliberatiOn and for the
dual reason that he is strong with Il Q
people and that his Democracy is I'M
impeachable. The convention is not a
long way off; theie is ample time 10
carefully canvass the claims OF each
man whose name has been suggested
for the nomination and TO find out their
relative strength before the people. 1t
is our ju dgmeut that La Toilette can
be beaten by a Democrat who can com
mand the entire support Of the Demo
cratic party and the independent voters.
II the wrong man is put up he will
simply be puppet to be knocked down
and for two years more this state will
be snbj ct to the vagaries OF LaFollette-
ism. 1t is up to the Democrats to make
a wise choice. These are days of great
anxiety TO men hopeful for Democratic
success. The questions uppermost and

HEARST FOR CONGRESS
NEW YORK EDITOR NAMED BY
 DEMOCRATS.
The Nomination Seconded in Speech by Big Chief" Devery-Perry
 Belmont Beaten by
 Senator Sullivan.

New York, Oct. 2-Conventions were held tonight in the Congressional pds- tricts within the boundaries of the Bor- oughs of Manhattan. the Bronx and Richmond. Interest in the nominations centered in that to be made in the Elev- enth District by the Democrats because the Tammany leaders had announced ear and his delegates would not be allowed seats in the Convention. Devery on hear ing this sent an emissary to the hall. He threatened mandamus proceedings and said if 1t was too late for the method of attack he would attack the legality of Convention proceedings If a nomina- ton was made without recognizing him and his associates.
 Before the Convention met Secretary Smith of Tammany announced that the leaders recognized the legality of the Devery delegates and that they would be given seats. The nomination went by exclamation to William Randolph Hearst, editor and proprietor of The New York American. He was placed in nomination by former State Senator T. c. O'Sullivan and William s. Devery made a speech seconding the nomination.
 In the Eighth District where Perry Bel mont was thought to be the only candi- date. State Senator Sullivan was nom- mated. This was done by the joining hands of the Richmond Borough dele gates and those led by MT. Sullivan.
 The candidates nominated represent constituents formed under a re-district- ing of New York County. A special cleo ton is to be held to fill the vacancy in the old Tenth District which was repre- sented by Amos J. Cummings, deceased.
 William Sulzer was renominated in the Tenth District by the Democrats.

 "To Monsieur Waldeck- -Rousseu. who has just resigned the premiership of France to re- sume the practice of h!s profession, I sub mitted." he said. ''all the documents and ques- tions and have received his elaborate opinions endorsing the same opinion, and in addition giving hs conclusions that the title to the property is perfect. and that the United States will acquire a complete and valid title there to. free from any possible complications from creditors or stockholders of the old company
 "The conveyance of the new Panama Canal Company will be supplemented by the official concurrence of the liquidation of the old com pany. and by the representatives of the bond holders of the old company, who have been fully authorized by decree of the court to grant such concurrence. Thus, there is Yeft no one to question the conveyance.
 Tn my judgment 1t only remains to con- the provisions of the Spooner law. That the treaty has been nearly agreed upon. only three or four points being still under discussion. is now a public item of news.
 Tn my judgment it is only a matter of time and skill and believe 1t will end in the United States acquiring and completing the Panama canal"
