Mr.. Bryan's Bitterness.

In the last number of his paper,
The Commoner, Mr.. Bryan prints
and comments on a letter written
by ex-senator David B. Hill to
Hon. Hamilton B. Ward, of Bel
mont, N. Y, on September 18th,
1896, in which Mr.. Hill said that
the position of a Democrat who at
all times wanted to be loyal to his
party was very difficult, but that
he was "a Democrat still-very
still"
The point that Mr.. Bryan makes
is that throughout the campaign
of 1896 and also that of 1900, Mr..
Hill, by his stiffness, contributed
to Republican success.
Everyone knows that the reason
why Mr.. Hill did not take the
stump for Mr. Bryan was because
Mr.. Hill could not conscientiously
advocate the free and unlimited
coinage of silver.
Now Mr.. Bryan will seek to pre-
vent the nomination of Mr.. Hill,
not because he believes that Mr..
Hill is not in harmony now with
the majority sentiment in the Dem
ocratic party, but because Mr.. Hill
did not do all he possibly could for
Mr.. Bryan when the latter was at
the head of the Democratic ticket.
In other words, Mr. Bryan is max
ing a personal matter with Mr..
Hill, and in this he is showing a
spitefulness that will greatly weak
5n him in the estimation of the
American people.

The Tax Rate.

The board of county commissions
ers have assessed the millage for
Brevard for the current year at 13I

made for last year, which is S1.35

mills, or 81. 10 on every one hundred
dollars worth of assessed property.
We note that in some of the
counties i'll South Florida that the
county levy has been brought down
as low as 81 mills, in which in
stance no levy was made for fine
and forfeiture fund, as it was con
Sldered that there was sufficient
money in that fund for the present

in part: "Teachers become too me-

much on the teacher, The ten

parasites. The schools develop
beautiful writer's and students who

machines" And there is no doubt
