The Palatka news and advertiser. [volume] (Palatka, Fla.) 1902-1905, 1903-07-10

sacrifices patriotism or religion for
business. Maybe that's why it
grows so fast. There was no Me-
tropolis last Saturday, the Fourth.
and thousands of people all over the
state who rely on 1t as n medium for
getting their daily information and
political gossip went to bed that
night feeling as if something impOr-
tant was missing from their daily
life. And there was, too. The Me
tropolis is great paper, and moth
ing so helps one to full realization
of that fact as a Sunday or holiday
omission.
Our old friend II. b. Hartig, we'll
remembered in Palatka as editor of
the East Floridian in 1900, has again
entered the newspaper field, this
time at Zolfo, down in De Soto
county. His paper is called the De
Soto County Advertiser. and those
who have seen it say it is II winner.
Hartig is one of the bright newspa-
per men of the state, and there is
nothing like a political scrap to
bring out the best that is in him.
His paper is not published at the
county capital, but after he gets to
going good and plenty its safe to say
that his publication office will be
the political capital of the county
His old friends in Putnam county
will to a man wish him good luck.
