HON. JAMES E. eRoomE.

hon. James +. Broome, who for
twelve years represented Gadsden
county in the state senate, has been
in the city for several days. The SEN
ator's many friends in this city and
county have been prevailing upon
him to announce himself as a candi-
date for secretary of state.
Senator BroOme is u son of Hon.
James r. Broome, third governor of
Florida. The political life and record
of Governor Broome is one Of the rich
legacies of our state. No public man
ever stood higher in the esteem and
confidence Of his people. The late
Judge John d. BroOme was 4 brother
of the senator. For many years Judge
Broome presided over the Seventh
judicial circuit of the state and no
iurist ever added richer lustre to the
ermine of the bench.
Perhaps no man in public life in
Florida was ever more i'm touch with
the political views of the late lament
ed and universally beloved John l..
Crawford. our former secretary Of
state. than Senator BroOme. As a
man Mr.. Broome is genial, whole
souled and afiable; as citizen calm,
dignified and true; as a politician
frank, manly and honest; a. states
man profound, learned, resourceful;
a. a patriot watchful in duty, chival-
rnr- in action, a man without guile or
fcproach.
His public life il an open book. His
consistent course il rich example.
He entered the Confederate service at
sixteen and fought through three
years of the war. Through the dark
hours of reconstruction and carpet
bag rule his voice was lifted against
the dissertation of public office, and
from the busting sin every section OF
state he gave his best and greatest eff
forts to the triumph and success Of the
democratic party. "The laborer is
worthy of his hire" The people of
Florida could make no mistake in Civ
ing the portfolio of secretary of state
to this distinguished son, and we here
by submit To the people of Florida the
name Of this distinguished gentleman
a. a suitable man TO nil the important
Office of secretary of state.-'iaines-

FRANK TO POINT OF BRUTALITY.
Honesty Does Not Require Dissemination
of Unpleasant Truths.

Some people seem always to be afraid
of telling pleasing truths. They seem to
consider that to be honest they must be
disagreeable: that to be frank mean, on
IL to hc brutally callous to the suf ring
that this frankness may give to III III
companions.
There are numerous ways of speaking
the truth, and equally numerous ways of
looking at it. To begin with, to be truth
full need not be unpieasing, or, worse,
brutal. We can be honest without being
hated and stunned for our manner of
displaying our honesty. Have you not
among your friends one of whom many
say: THAT woman has the most beauti-
full character | ever knew; / never heard
her say one unkind word of a human be-
ingT' Is il because none but pleasing
things came into that woman's life that
she has won so enyiable "A reputation
Surely not; it is only because her head
and heart hold a WISE kind answer for
every failing that appears in the lives of
her associates. She has learned that un.
| pleasant truths may often be suppressed
without loss of rectitude. If compelled
TO speak them she persistently shows the
| pleasing side, leaving the hearer to find
out for himself, If ne must know, that
there is an unpleasing side as well. If
| there are always Mt least two sides t.
a truth, the pleasing and the unpleasing
| why is II not equally as honorable Ia
choose the pleasing side for speech rather
than the other? Surely, it is more worthy
the memory of true woman to treasure
the good than the bad: and this little
matter of choice may prove Il foundation
for character that will bless its name
through life.
More than this there are truths which
are SO joyous and lovely that it is only
a SlldnesS to speak them, truths which
| seem to have no unpleasant side mt all
These are the little daily chances to be
| kind, sometimes miscalled "compl
ments." Our friends smile is corda

to assure her of the fact? Do we moi

experiments, it is pointed ont by lumber
men, that farmers often use hemlock in
constructing cat bins and other reccp-
tacles designed to be rat and mouse
proof. The wood is distasteful to the
rodents and is not attacked.
Puget sound lumbermen are greatly in
terested in the tests because the state
contains a vast quantity Of hemlock for
which there has been little demand up to
the present time, because tine wood is
easily confused with the almost worth
less hemlock of the Eastern states. and
cannot be sold in the Eastern market
under its real name.
In this connection it is related that a
Puget sound mill has been shipping hem
lock labeled spruce to an Eastern buyer
for two years. Other samples of spruce
have been submitted to this buyer at
various times. but he rejected them all
IN favor of the sound manufactures
Yet he refused to consider the question
of trying hemlock.
