Judge from western city, professor
from Boston and a United States SEN
ator. Grave and austere Of manner, az
became their age and honors, they ad-
dressed each other by the titles which
belonged to their several stations. But
they had been schoolmates, and when
the senator told a story Of school days
the accumulated ice of forty years
thawed in a burst of laughter, and they
were John and Bill and Horace once
more. The Delineator repeats one Of
their stories:
"Bill, do you remember breaking the
steersT" laughed Horace.

ty-three years old last Saturday. The
Republican is the oldest paper in Wa

Republican interests. The Republic
an recently became a semi, weekly,
and is showing many others signs of
prosperity which are watched with
pleasure by the newspaper fraternity
of the state, all of whom have the
pleasantest feeling for the Republican.
We extend our congratulations and

1t has not been generally known
that the everglades of Florida have
been open to settlement, but suco is
the case. The government land Office
has only recently thrown this large
tract of land open to those who desire
to settle there and improve it and re-
claim it to civilization. Lake Okee-

Central Florida. It is bordered with
vast mOrasses which extend south

this part is called the Everglades
This tract, covers something like a
thousand square miles which the foo

drained and parcelled out into small

THE INFANTS CRY.

1T must be rather amusing to read
ers of the Daily Times, who read the
Republican, to find news matter in that
paper taken wholly without change in
phraesology from the Times columns.
As daily paper the Times is expected
to furnish the public with the local
happenings each day and does SO to the
best Of its ability and resources, and
the information is free for all our LEGAL
contemporaries, but we believe in fair
ness to the paper from which the
clipping is taken that the wording
should be changed in manner at least
not to offend the reader who has
already perused it in q previous publ
cation. The news Of newspaper is
part of its capital stock and requires
labor to secure it, therefore the more
reason why contem porary should be
careful in publishing the same as origi-
nal matter. That method may work
all right outside Of the local sphere,
but it has frequently been commented
upon by local readers You are vel
come to the news, neighbor, but for
goodness sake, change the style and
dietion.n
The above item, under the heading
Ito Much Sameness" appeared in the
column of our esteemed daily neighbor
across the bridge in the issue of Thurs
day evening. Well well, one would
judge by reading the item in the col
umn of the infant daily across the
bridge that the Republican depended
on them for their news. This is too
much! Certainly very amusing, for if
the Republican did depend on them
their columns could not be filed once
week, let alone twice. The force
would be in despair on press day, with
nothing but few lunch locals to fill
the space.
AOHSFOl, IL IL w LII our
friends any we will start little side
issue department and every little item
about the street sprinkler and items of
the like taken from their paper will be
placed under that head and full Credit
given. Of course if the Times writer
doesn't like his own style we will try
and change his 'phraseology" so it
sounds better, anything to please him.
And then when wedding Or some
thing of interest happens which they
could get two days before US if they
woke up bit, we might kindly wait
till they could find out the particulars
and then come out with a fac
smile three days later
Never mind, boys; don't you care.
The only thing, you should have ment-
Toned this fault of the Republican
about two years ago, when every
thing in it was stale news. Don't be
sore boys because you have to follow
the band wagon now instead of lead.
In conclusion let us state that we
are extremely grateful for your liberal
advertising. and will endeavor in some
measure to return your compliment
Although we have given our neigh Dor
credit for most items which our reporter
didn't gather, still in future we will
endeavor to give them a style which
will suit their fastidious taste.
In the meantime go way back in
your sanctum and take any two average
issues of the semi-weekly Republican
and any six Of the fiy-leaf daily and
count up the news and then give an
honest answer as to who really reports
the news.

"N'Iiss" at the Park.

Ii Bret Harte, tho author of so many ex-
ccIlent stories OF California life, We're to
come back to earth and drop in at the Park
Theater it is hardly likely that he would
recognize at first glance the characters on
the stage as the same interesting people he
had written about in Caiifornia's most pic
turesque times-"the days of old, the days
OF gold, the days of 40" But it is not nee
essary To comment on the actual dement's
the elusive merits of the present revival
OF .M'liss'' by Nellie McHenry and her
company. IL II pleases the audiences that
go to witness it's presenta tion--and the play
was warmly applauded by two large crowds
at the Park yesterday-it fills its present
purpose, and all the suggestions that might
be made from now until the end of the sea-
son as TO a more careful study of the types
enacted. and not so much exaggeration OF
the sensational parts of the story, would
be entirely futile.
Nellie McHenry herself is good in the
character of Miss. although She too, is
given To emphasizing the various phases OF
the mountain girls character I'm n way that
she would not do IL she allowed her artistic
judgment TO prevail. Although an actress
of many years experience behind the foot
lights, she makes Up we'll that she very
hearty realizes in appearance the character
of the little girl who played with rag dolls
and threw acorns at the man she loved from

theaters. That is, they overact at times
most distressngly, and give attention
