What We Most Remember

Memory is for the most part "a trivial
fond record" of the affairs of everyday
life, and our intense desire not to lose
the remembrance of these unimportant
everyday matters is one of the greatest
testimonies to the predOminance of
happiness over unhappiness in the
world. Do we not feel sorry from our
hearts for any one who has lost such
an Infinitely precious possession with
out even wondering whether or no
there was anything in their past lives
worth recOllecting? After all, how few
are the hours which any of us would

HON FRANK ADAMS.

Nearly two months of another cleo
ton year has passed away, and the
time has arrived when our people
should begin to consider who can most
efficiently serve them as their servants
and representatives in our State Leg
islature.
! A woman goes up or down in social
| standing according to the position Of
the man she marries, and a county as
cends or descends the scale of political
prestige according to the ability Of the
men she selects to represent her in our
legislative halls.
During the two terms of service Of
Hon. Frank Adams, as Hamilton coun-
ty's senator, he has not only served
his people efficiently, faithfully and
well, but by his rare ability to grapple
with the greater problems Of state
craft, coupled with his attention to the
smaller details of the duties of the Of
flee, he has been of signal service to
his people, and gave to our county a
reputation for intelligence and politi-
cal sagacity which she never possessed
before.
Feeling that the retirement of Mr..
Adams would really be public loss to
the people of our county, News re-
porter interviewed Mr.. Adams one day
this week as to whether he would stand
for reelection to the State Senate
In reply to our interrogatories he
said that, public life resulted in f1nan-
cial loss to him, but Notwithstanding
this he fully recognized the duty he
owed to the people among whom he
was born and reared, among whom he
lived, and among whom he expected
to die; that he felt deeply grateful to
them for the hOnors bestowed upon
him and for the confidence they had
reposed in him and if they wished him
to serve another term in the State Sen
ate they had but to command and he
was ready to obey.
We feel sure that our people will
command; that they are not ready at
this particular juncture to resign the
duties of so great and responsible an
Office to the hands of a novice; and we,
therefore, take pleasure in announcing
the name of Hon. Frank Adams as a
candidate for reelection from FIOrida's S
Thirtieth Senatorial district.-Jasper

General Jackson, while on one of his
journeys to Tennessee about the time
Of the notification excitement, arrived
at Virginian village in a very impa-
hent state Of mind, both with public af-
fairs and with the state Of the roads.
The president was entertained as a
guest at the house of q lady In the vii
iage, and, although he tried to be
polite, the state Of vexation which he
was in affected him visibly.
His hostess, at the supper table, was
much alarmed to see the general swal-
lowing with great rapidity cup of al
most boiling hot tea.
'Wait-Wait, generalp' exclaimed the
lady; 'let me give you some cold wa

mo, thank you, ma'am," said the
general, continuing to drink.
'But l don't see how you can drink
that boiling hot tea without scalding
yourself"

Jackson. 81 am scalding myself"
''But, sir, why do you

THE STATE FAIR.

The people of Tallahassee and Leon
county have an opportunity to secure
the State Fair, if they will arouse
themselves to the importance Of the
enterprise. It will require probably
ten or twelve thousand dollars to do
the. work, but it will be worth, every
cent of the amount.
The prestige gained by holding such
a fair will be worth something. The
advertising will be worth more. The
receipts for privileges and admissions
will pay the expenses incurred, while
every grocery, hotel, livery stable and
boarding house in the city will be very
greatly benefited.
In fact, the merchants, livery stable
men, boarding house and hotel keepers
can well afford to make up a guarantee
Of $4,000, If necessary, to have the fair
The Weekly Tallahasseean., 1902-02-28

held in the State Capital. They would
get every cent of it back, and more too.
In what way? Well, there would be
from 5000 to 10000 visitors in the city
every day. These vast crowds would
have to be fed and sheltered. Provis-
ions would be needed and every grocery
in the city would be taxed to its ut
most to supply the demands.
Not only this, but large quantities of
corn, hay, vegetables and other sup
plies would be required to feed the peo-
pie and the stock, and farmers for
miles around would find a market for
their surplus produce. Every class of
people would be benefited. Laborers
would necessarily be given employ
ment, while the thousands of dollars
turned loose in the city would prove
very welcome.
We know OF no other enterprise that
would bring greater returns. for the in
vestment, not only from an immediate
pecuniary standpoint, but from its af-
ter effects. Thousands of visitors would
flock to the State Capital to attend a
fair, who would not visit one in an
other city. The reason for this is OBJ
vious. From a historical point of view
Tallahassee is interesting. People
have read of the place, and many want
to see it. The fair would give them an
opportunity to visit the most pictur-
esque capital in the South, and at the
same time witness a display of the
wonderful possibilities of the soil of
the Land Of Flowers. They would
come, and see, and be conquered. AS a
result the thousands of acres of fertile
lands now lying idle in this part of
Florida would be opened up by class
of very desirable settlers. This would
greatly enhance the value of land, and
property owners would reap the bene-
fits.
Tallahassee wants the fair and
should have it. Valdosta paid $4,000
and promises ten per cent. of the profits
for the Georgia State Fair Are we any
less enterprising than our plucky little
Georgia neighbor? No! and the people
should get together and make deter
mined fight to get the Florida State
Fair. We need it in our business.
AS starter, The Tallahasseean sug-
gests that the county commissioners at
their next meeting appropriate at least
81, 900 for this purpose Then let the
city council make a similar appropria-
tien. Upon such a nucleus the citizens
could go to work with a will and raise
the balance. Let us make the effort.

HON. ]. M. BRYAN RETIRES.

1t is with regret that we state that
we are authorized by Hon. ]. M. Bryan
to anonunce that on account of failing
health he will not be a candidate for
reelection as a member Of the Rail-
road Commission. His name, there
fore, will not be presented for this Of
flee to- the people in the coming pri-
mary. In taking this course he is actu-
ated by a desire to clear the way for
those gentlemen who have been Bug
gested as candidates for this Office, as
also for those who may be hereafter
so suggested. the term of Hon. H. E.
Day, chairman of the Commission, also
expires with that of Mr.. Bryan. In
retiring from the field Mr.. Bryan
wishes it distinctly understood that he
deos so without prejudice to Mr.. Day,
whose reelection is earnestly desired
by Mr.. Bryan, the latter being in the
best possible position to know the
value of Mr.. Days services upon the
Commission, and what a loss to that
body it would be to be deprived of Mr..
Days ripe experience and mature judg-
ment.
We heartily agree with Mr.. Bryan
in his endorsement of Mr.. Day, not
only on account of that gentleman'T
unusual qualifications for the high Of
flee ne has successfully filled, but also
because it would be unwise in the ex-
treme to put more than one new man
at time on the Commission. The pub
lie interest would be best conserved b.
always keeping two old members on
the Commission. We can then be sure
of settled policy and a conservative
administration.
Mr.. Bryan's retirement raises a point
concerning the Commission that calls
for serious consideration and ought to
be made popular issue in this cam
paign. 1t is one that vitally effects the
very existence of the Commission. The
constitutional amendment passed at
the session of 1897, ratified at the polls
in 1898, and carried into law at the ses-
sion of 1899, provides that "the Legis-
lature may clothe any railroad commits
sion with judicial powers" The word
may is ambiguous, in that it seems
to leave it to the option of the Legisla-
ture whether or no to make this consti-
tutional clause operative. The conse-
quence is that every session of the Leg
islature has seen and will see the intro
duction of bill to abolish the Commits
sion.
This state of things is intolerable
and ought to be remedied at the first
opportunity. 1t is an outrage that the
Commission should be exposed to
threats of determination at the hands
of any disgruntled politician who may
have an ak to grind or a personal
grievance against one Of its members.
The. Commission cannot do itself full
justice and cannot maintain it's COM
plete independence when every two
years it is open to political attack from
irresponsible enemies. The remedy for
this humiliating situation lies in the
