Several weeks ago, Rev. II, w,
Joiner Of the Punta Gorda Motho-
dist church, preached a sermon on
~ Christians Duties as u Citizen, "
which contained such excellent
ideas Of practical application TO the
present day and It's conditions that
they should have wide dlssomlna-
tion and general, serious consIdera-
tiOn,
Taking AZ his text the words of
jesus, "Ronder unto Caesar the
things that are Caesars" he showed
clearly that twas the Savlor's de.
sign and Will that His followers
should not only ''be subject to the
powers that be-" but that they should
take praotlca, part In sustaining
the government by paying taxes
and oD0ylng the laws.
SO intimately on this earth Is the
spiritual associated with tho ma
terial world that a man cannot fully
discharge his duties as u Christian
and ignore those which devolvo up
on him as a citizen. Ho may hold
family prayer, go to church regular
ly and to all outward appearance
live an upright Christian life, but II
he envades the payment of his Just
pro rata of taxes by giving In his
property ut less than It's value, he Is
SHINING IN the eyes Of God.
A man clearly owes II TO pay taxes
10 the government which he expects
to protect him In tho enjoyment Of
life and propertyi and II he with
holds through any trick, device or
falsohood any portion of tho amount
due, he Is guilty Of cheating which is
but dishonesty,
Even II the government and lis
laws are very dlstasteful, not to say
hateful, II Is the Christians duty TO
pay his taxes and obey the laws,
This was clearly taught TO the Jews,
to whom the Roman government
was very obnoxious.
But In this day and time and In
this country, the people are respon-
slblo for the government and the
laws, for II Is by their votes that
these are made, They are therefore
all the more bound 10 sustain their
rulers aud enactments.
II bad men get In Office and make
bad or oppressive laws, good men
who do not use their influence TO
prevent II are to blame for 1t. We
are estopped from complaining five
do rot continually exert ourselves
along Just and lawful lines 70 remove
the cause Of complaint.
II Is therefore the Christian duty
Of every citizen to vote and to do so
consclentlously,
A man cannot escape his civil
duties and remain u thorough
Christian. Those by whom no IL
surrounded nave righteous claims
upon his influence and his activity
for good. He cannot as true
Christian ignore his relation to Others
and out Of these relations grow his
civil duties. Ho cannot Withdraw
himself wholly into a spiritual at.
mospherei ho must come In contact
with ,he material world and impress
his character upon II for good or
evil.
lie must live amongst men and he
must therefore render unto them
those things which common broth
erhood demands. He has no right
to stand idly by and see his nelghbor
robbed nor to remain passive and
inactive as a citizen when the inter
ests OF good government are at
stake.
In n word, u man who IL a genuine
Christian IL required to pay his full
quota OF taxes, to obey the laws and
to use his influence and his vote tC
secure good government.

Col. H.H. McCreary, the courteou,

Col. ii. II, McCreary, the courteous
and brilliant editor OF that excellent
paper, the Gainesville Daily Sun,
reproduces from THE HERALD the
Finney-Ohlsen fish story with q pref
ace 80 pleasant that we feel constraln-
ed to quote 1t. He says;
editor Jordan, of the Punta Gorda
HERALD, was at one time engaged In
the newspaper business in Gaines
vile, and consequently swell known
here. The editor of the sun found
him to be an honorable, upright
gentleman, one whom II was a pleas
nre to ackno Wedge as a competitor,
on account Of the legitimate manner
IN which he conducted his business
and the honest way he dealt with
others In the same class " busi-
ness"
IL Is certainly highly gratifying TO
have won such u good opinion from
a gentleman having the lofty charac-
ker Of Col McCreary.

In the report of the proceedings
Of tne council meeting Thursday

manning and bruising the middle

sidewalk Of Union street for bicycle

Now one hundred ana dfty-hve falls
far short of being a majority of the

the safety of the many than for the
convenience OF the few-the rights OF
pedestrians arc safe in their hands.

We have seen many places much
smaller than Brunswick, where bicy-
cles were not allowed ON any side

some country road, or through will

We have heard On one place where
the bicycrsts were so anxious to
monopolize the sidewalks that they
were allowed to do so. but they were
compelled to dismount every time
they met or passed a person walking.
When bicycles were allowed on I'm

in danger every time we veutured to
walk there, but of late the freedom
from care has made the walk plea

Union street is at least ninety feet
wide, and there is amble room for
