A REAL TRUST BUSTER.

If President Roosevelt wants to
end the trust business in this coun-
try he can get pointer from Lieu
tenant Stone of the Island of Guam.
Lieut.. Stone is the whole thing in
Guam. Uncle Sam put him there as
overload with instructions to run
things, and Stone is living up to his
opportunities.
A financial depression struck
Guam not long ago. The one export
of the island is copra. Owing to
competition the price of copra had
declined. But living expenses re-
manned on the same high level as in
prosperous times.
Worse! The merchants of Guam
got together and boosted the price
of groceries higher still They
formed trust,
Enter Stone: BY an official proc
lamation he called attention to the
"eXorbitant prices of food stutfs. Vt
Those prices, he said, We're due
largely to form of collision or coal
ition on the part of the merchants
Moreover, he limited at the possibili.
ty of an "insular government store, >
and made passing hllusion to the
criminal statutes. Then he signed
his name and waited.
In week or two the governor OF
Guam had occasion to issue another
manifesto. 1t was genial in tone
He praised the proper spirit of the
merchants and set fourth list o
reasonable prices 10 which the mer-
chants had agreed.
The trust was busted. Now
If Theodore Roosevelt could issue
proclamation calling attention, TO
instance, to the actions of the Goa
trust, or the beef trust, hint the pos
sibility of government competition
and recite the provisions of the fed
eral statute respecting crimina
trusts.
But alas We are not living i,
Guam. We are living in countr.
where the motto of the men who sci
coal and meat and other things is
"Charge all the traffic will bear"

DO WOMEN WANT TO vorE7

me News Is at regular Intervals
in receipt Of literature bearing or
the question of woman suffrage, with
urgent requests TO publish. We
have not done SO for the reason that
we have an impression that women
do not want to vote.
The absence of this desire on the
part of women for the franchise has
never been satisfactorily answered
Last year, up in Springfield, Mass.
a school election was held, and OF
263 women who had registered, anC
were therefore entitled to vote, only
fifty-One displayed interest enough
in the event to go to the polls. Had
this opportunity offered in Florida
it is doubtful if one-quarter that
number would have voted.
Now it is hardly to be supposed
that the other PIP qualified women
of Springfield were all too much EN-
gagged with their household duties
to snatch few minutes and go to
the polling booths.
So the old question remains un.
answered: Do women want to vote?

A WALK IN. THE WOODS.


Few men know how TO take Il walk.
The qualifications of a professor are
endurance, plain clothes old shoes, an
eye for nature, good humor, vast curl
osity, good speech, good silence and
nothing too much. If man tells me
that he has an intense love of nature,
know, of course, that he has none.
Good observers have the manners Of
trees and animals, their patient good
sense, and If they add words tits only
when words are better than silence
But a loud singer or story teller or a
vain talker profOnes the river and the
forest and is nothing like so good COM
pany as a dog.

and of his guests to the Difference due

thought the cattle made all this wide
space necessary between house and
house and that If there were no cows
to pasture less land would suffice. But
COW does not need so much land as
the owners eyes require between him

A Trip to the South Florida Fair.
Editor PALATKAANEws

EultOE GALATkAaNEWS.
In company with Messrs. H. j
Recter and G.. L. Knight and fam
lilies of Florahome, took a trip to
the south Florida fair at Tampa last
week. Large crowds were in atten-
dance from Maine to southern Flor
ida
On entering the fair grounds the
first to attract our attention was tbe
live stock department. The exhibit
of thoroughbred hogs was very good,
and would compare favorably with
the western prairie stock. The eX-
hibit of thoroughbred cattle was also
very good for Florida. Next came
the poultry department which was
well filled and very creditable dis
play, Next in line was the agricul-
tural, horticultural and machinery
departments. There We're several
counties competing for a $500 pre-
MUM for the best exhibit of farm
products. The exhibits were very
fine, especially of citrus fruits. The
exhibit of fancy work of the ladies
was also very attractive. The races
were very good.
Among the many pleasing attrac-
tions there was a splendid trapese
performance, and daring bicycle
ride by II man and woman down an
incline track about four feet wide,
over a chasm of about twenty feet
and then to the ground. There were
many spOrtsmen present enjoying a
clay pigeon shoot.
At night troop II. of the 18th U. S.
cavalry gave a performance, and
We're frequently applauded for their
daring rides.
The eruption of Mt. Pelee and the
! fire works were very good and was
much enjoyed by the large crowd OF
spectators.
On Thursday we took steamer fol
ST. Petersburg and arrived alter q
| two hours ride. We spent the day
viewing the city and the orange
groves in the adjacent country. St
Petersburg is situated on II peninsula
nearly surrounded by water, so the
orange trees escaped the freeze OF
1895, and we had a chance to see the
large trees laden with grapefruit and
oranges.
Friday we took a pleasant ride OF
the electric cars along the beach tC
Port Tampa. Saturday our return
trip was made in the day time, anC
we passed numerous orange groves
nearly all of them being fairly loadec
with fruit.
The fruit packing season in Soutl
Florida is now in full blast, and from
present indications there will be
quite large crop of fruit marketed
this winter.
Judging from what | saw anC
learned | think the fair will be a com
plete success. The weather was very
fine and ALI seemed to enjoy them,
selves. H. CALKINs.
