The 0Ie0margarine Debate.

The recent debate in the u. S.
senate in regard to the oleomarga-
rlne bill was quite interesting.
1t will be remembered that the
bill raises the tax on this product
when cOlOred to resemble butter
from two cents a pound to ten
cents, but reduces the tax on
the uncolored product from two
cents a pound to One-quarter of a
cent. The bill further provides that
oleomargarine and similar products
shall be subject to state laws, so
that ''original packages" imported
from other states cannot be sold in
states prohibiting the local manu-
facture and sale.
The supporters of the bill freely
admitted that oleomargarine is a
cheap and healthful food product.
but insisted that it is now general
ly sold as butter, and that farmers
and consumers are alike entitled to
protection against fraud. The op-
pOnents of the bill insisted that the
product Is now generally sold a.
such to people with small incomes.
and denounced the proposed tax as
an injustice to the consumers. Be
fore the final passage of the bill
itself, the senate adopted the
amendment offered by Senator
Harris, of Kansas, imposing on
butter the same tax rs
was imposed on colored oleomarga-
rlne. When the bill came To a vote
party lines were followed to a sin
gular extent. The vote stood So
to 81.

The Primary Plan.

At the meeting of the Democrat
ic state executive committee, held
in jacksonville Tuesday, the pri-
mary election to select county,
state and congressional candidates
was ordered for July 18th next.
This is the first trial of the new
primary law, and whether it will
work satisfactorily or not remains
to be seen. On page 5 this week
We have published the state prim-
airy law as passed by the legislature
last year. Every Democratic voter
should peruse it carefully, and be-
come thoroughly acquainted with
its requirements and provisions at
once, so as to be posted in regard
to the same when the election is
held.
A great many prominent Demo
Gratis are of the opinion that it is a
dangerous policy to abandon the
convention plan of nominating
state officers, while there are as
many who hold that the primary
plan is the proper and correct way
to secure the expression of the will
of the people,
The state executive committee
has fulfilled its duty to the letter
in calling the primary. Now give
the primary plan a fair trial and
the mass of Democratic voters will
soon determine whether the exper-
lment works satisfactorily or not.
We do not care to pass judgment |
upon the new measure, but we
hope it will prove to be all that its
most ardent admirers and support
RS have claimed for it.

neSses. A legal fence being prac-
tically such as is not exacted in the
oldest settled states (there are prob
ably not hundred strictly legal
fences in Florida), this law amounts
in effect to making all inclosed
lands a free range, the owners of
the same being fully accountable
for the welfare of all stock breaking
into such inclosed lands. The very
rigidity of the requirements as to
the fences to be constructed is in
itself confession by the lawmak-
ers of the lawless and predatory
character of the range stock.
at is not at. all strange that
thousands decline to settle here
and engage in tilling the soil under
such circumstances. That a truck
er with fence fully conforming
to the legal standard, if some hard
ened offender should break in and
lead the way for the entire herd,
perhaps destroying his crop in one
night, is simply outrageous.

interests of Florida; they are i'm
pOrtant and valuable, and we hope
speedily to see them become four
times more valuable. Many do
settle here and submit to the end

soning perhaps, that they can stand
it as well as the farmers who have
put up with it for forty or fifty |

SOUTH AFRICAN WAR.
Report ON british Operations for the
Past Year-The Loss of
Life, Etc

London, Jan. s.-A published re-
view of operations in South Africa
during the past year, based upon of
fetal reports, gives an interesting
comparison of Boer and British
losses. The review says that the to-
tai reduction of the Boer forces, in
killed, wounded, taken prisoners and
surrendered, amounts to 1890 men.
Out of this total only 1893 rifles
were secured. The captures of Boer
ammunition amount to 100000 cart
ridges. British columns are sup
posed to have taken all the Boer
artillery, amounting to 81 guns, ex-
elusive of the two captured by Gen.
DeWet, at Zeefontein. The capture
of Boer stock has been enormous,
considering the great hauls made dur
ing the earlier years of the war.
During the last year total of &c.
ss2 horses were captured, while of
other stock, such as cattle, oxen and
sheep, 366,s21 head were captured.
The British casualties from actual
fighting amount to only half of those
sustained by the Beers, namely,
9,113 men, of which 1873 were taken
prisoners and have since been re-
leased. During the last year 1000
men died of disease, Is officers and
342 men were accidentally killed and
25,S00 men were invaded home.

Admiral Schley's interview with
the president was the result of his
determination to exhaust every
means in his power to overtnrn the
judgment which has been rendered
against him. His new appeal will be
different from that submitted to the
navy department, bringing out some
new facts which have an important
bearing upon the controversy.

Negaunee, Mich, Jan. s.-The most
distressing accident occurring in this
county for years took place at the
Negaunec mine Tuesday noon by
which from 16 to II miners are
thought to have lost their lives. The
accident was the result of cave-in
at the bottom of the old shaft. and
had it occurred half an hour sooner
about $50 men would have been
killed. The names of the dead so far
as known are: William Williams,

far but two bodies have been taken
out, Hunlalla's and an Italian, Dom
mic Basso, who was alive.
Hundreds of men are at the mine
eager to help in the work of rescue,
but it is thought the other bodies
cannot be found within "a hours.
The Negaune mine is one of the
most unlucky properties in the Lake
