A WONDERFUL INVENTION.

1t is interesting to note that

WHERE THEY LEAD.

All final power in party manage
mpmt is human, and, as such, liable
to err. That of the democratic party
in Florida is very human and its lat
est error has the flavor of deliberate
choice. But
Though it may smell to heaven and
be stencil in the nostrils of honest
democrats, there is still left them a
mOdicum of satisfaction in the
knowledge that there yet remains II
choice of evils, in which democratic
executive treachery and Napoleon B..
Broward will figure as the lesser
Not to stand by the democratic
party in Florida at. this, the critical
time in it's history when the evil
days have come that you must say |
have no pleasure in it-would mean
Il return to republican rule with its
attendant evils of negro domination.
Knowing this to be fact, honest
democrats who have been nauseated
with disgust at the failure of party
management to measure up to that
high moral standard which IS not on
ly possible, but easy of mainten-
ance in Florida, will support Napo-
leon Il. BrOward at the November
election, even though they be COM
PEELED to hold their noses as they
place the sign of the cross before his
name.

A WORD PERSONAL.

Gould the News believe that Mr..
Broward was the choice of the legal
democratic primary voters of Florida
it would now be giving him that
same free support it was prepared to
give Mr.. Davis, 1t cannot thus be-
lieVc in face of the evidence.
This being the case, and the editor
never having had the advantages of
instruction in those political meth
DDS indigenous to the Bowery and
successfully hot-houscd in Florida,
the democrats of Putnam county
will pardon him if he seem slow in
spelling democratic harmony with q
capital ''H, " and for the present de-
clines to participate in any love feast
functions.
To Il guileless democratic editor,
political fraud, like an initial view
of vice on The Pike, has hateful
look But as the fraud becomes
more and more familiar to his olfac-
tory, who shall say that he may not
yet grow to endure, even regard with
favor and finally embrace.
The harmony not. with all its days
of grace is due today. But The
News must, in view of all the facts,
respectfully ask an extension.

Why did the ariStocracy of parent
age fnil to hold its own? Why did it
die out in America and, practically
speaking, in all the British colonies?
1t had every advantage at the outset;
it held the inside track. 1t failed be-
cause two great laws of the universe
were against it-hrst, the laws Of
arithmetic, and, secondly, the laws Of
physiology. 1t violated the principles
of arithmetic because 1t required that
each individual or household should
have q distinct line of ancestors, and
it would thus be discovered In a few
generations that there were not nearly
enough ancestors to go round, leaving
people In the position of Mark Twain,
who declared that he had mo parents
to speak of, only q father or mother
or So" 1t was contrary to the laws Of
physiology, as shown by the deteriora-
ton of one royal family after another
in Europe, these having come to re-
semble those English race horses
which have so much blood that there
is very little horse, and 1t must be re-
plenished from more plebeian stock.

a single year.
We used 337, S4O,6O3 pounds of to-
bacco last year in all forms and
smoked 6,787 ,454, 103 cigars.
One of the curious things about the
cigarette is that the more it is at
tackled the more it is used. The less
friends it has the more it flourishes.
1t would be safe to wager that
practically every woman in the land,
all other non-smokers and many
slaves to tobacco would, if they had
opportunity, sign the petition to
congress. But such petitions are to
congress as water is to ducks back.
The very paper upon which the
petition and signatures are written
may possibly be made over into
wrappers for cigarettes.

THE WAR ON CIGARETTES.

There is revival of the war on
cigarettes. OF course, the war goes
on always, but it seems to run in
waves. Just now Il tidal wave is
rolling in.
The endless chain scheme has
been brought into rcquisitiOn for the
purpose of securing 100000 sigma
lures to Il petition to congress, ask
ing for anti-cigarrtte legislation.
The womens clubs have taken up
the work and signatures are being
secured in all parts of Putnam
county as well as the balance of the
state. There is no doubt but that
these good women will get the need
ed signatures, but the legislation is a
different matter.
All governments find the tobacco
tax one of the most important sources
of revenue, and the attempts to
abolish cigarettes through congress
are about as hopeless rs to make war
on prOcrastination
Perhaps it is not generally known
that this country is becoming the
cigarette centre of the world. We
are shipping the coffin nails to
Japan, and even the FilipinOs are
receiving them as part of our civil
cation. There is said TO be ma
chine that turns out 100000 finished
cigarettes in day OF ten hours, and
its product is invading the remotest
parts of the earth.
Contrary to general belief, more
snuff than ever is made and used in
this country, and if the total con-
sumption of tobacco tells the tale
accurately, we are approaching the

Whit the Jnps Coll Japan.

A certain Japanese who has been for
some years a resident of Philadelphia
and who has many friends here was
speaking the other night of his own
people.
"Of course" he said, 1--WE do not

VIM. A. RUSSELL, Editor
THE FACTS:

The state executive committee of
the democratic party has declared
Napoleon b. Broward to be the NOM
ince for the Office of governor.
The committee has made this dec
laration in the face of grave charges
of fraud, through which it is claimed
that Mr.. BrOward secured his major
ity Con the face of the returns) of ia
votes.
In thus acting the committee has,
in effect, placed its stamp of approx
al on ballot box stulling, illegal vot-
ing and all of the other frauds charg-
ed, and which charges were support
ed by numerous atliduvits of respon-
siblr citizens.
The state executive committee,
however, is the highest authority in
the party. 1t is the party's supreme
court and from its decisions there
can be no appeal. BY virtue of its
edict Napoleon b. Broward will be
the next governor of Florida.

HER SONS WIFE.


A young lady up in Massachusetts
who was to have been married, call
ed the affair off until such time as
her flance can give her home of her
very own.
She objected to living with her
mother-in-law and had the courage
to say so.
You can see where she's right
can't you?
About two-thirds of the young men
who marry nowadays take the
young wife home to live with mother.
Sometimes mother likes it and
then sometimes she doesn't. When
she dOesn't-well, there is a decided
ly uncomfortable time in store for
the young woman.
Listen to this old adage:
your daughters your daughter
all your life, your sons your son till
he marries a wife" 1t is so, isn't 1t?
That's why most mothers don't
take kindly to a daughterinlaw.
The mothers heart can't bear to be
shut out from the love that has been
hers since she first taught the falter-
ing little feet to patter over the floor,
1t goes awfulIy hard with her to see
some one else come first.
Men are so thoughtless. They
don't love the mother any less, but
| they love the wife so much more and
they haven't sense enough to keep it
under their hats.
| They flaunt their new possession
in the face of the mother, they laud
her charmes, they sing her praises
and their whole time is given to her.
Then the lonely mother grows just
a little jealous. She can't see her
self take second place and be cheer
full. She can't give up the head of
the table and do it willingly. And
she won't admit that the young
wife can manage the grocery bill as
well as she can.
SO trouble begins.
Little unpleasantncsses will arise
trifles will grow into mountains, I'M
kind words will be uttered, strained
relations will follow, and then as
the house divided against itself will
fall, so will these two women let a
great wall of unkindness arise be.
tween them, and just as long as they
live together, the thicker will it
grow.
A young wife has a right to be
sole mistress in her own domain, if
it is only three rooms.
Two women never did, nor never
will, never can, run the same house
amacably. They may mean to and
want to but they can't
That is how the young woman up
in Massachusetts, reasoned and she
was perfectly right.
Young man, if you can't afford to
have a roOftree of your own, go and
engage board with strangers and
don't inflict your wife on your
mother.
