Fine Lettuce Prospects.

James H. Fry of this city has big
crop of lettuce and celery on his
truck farm on the outskirts of the
city. The lettuce should be ready
for shipment in two weeks and if the
price holds Mr.. Fry will realize big
profit.
He has $4,000 head of lettuce and
lot of celery.
w. A. Walton also has big acre
age in celery and lettuce but his was
planted later.
The experiment farm also has big
truck crops coming on.

Gubernatorial SUGGESTIONS.

You can't help it and probably
don't want to. But the live men of
the state whose business takes them
into hotel lobbies and other places
where men congregate will and do
spend their idle moments in discus
sing available candidates for the
governorsbip and other political
matters. These men are the kind
who make sentiment. They, too,
usually come nearest TO yoicing cur
rent opinion.
AT the Saratoga hotel the other
evening were dozen commercial
men. The subject came up. Then
always interesting and popular rep
resentative of the Covington compa-
ny spoke: II am for George w.
Wilson of the Times Union. l have
known him for years. Most of the
people know him. He is a good,
clean, capable man and would give
the state good administration with
out any frills. Don't know whether
he could be nominated or not, but
we'll, primaries are peculiar.
There were one or two assents to the
proposition, then another mana
Jacksonville man whose name we
did not learn-spoke up:
''The best man | know for the
office of Governor of Florida lives
right here in Palatka. l mean DR..
E. S. Grill. There is the man to give
us an intelligent business admins
tration with no nonsence and no
graft attachment. He is the best
posted man regarding state finances
in Florida. He knows the state
from A to lizard. He is absolutely
honest. Good many cheap guys
jumped on him last spring when he
introduced that Key West extension
bill in the senate. Said he was a
railroad man. He was, but not in
the sense they meant. Now those
guys sing Il different song. They see
that this Key West railway eXten-
sion is going to prove the biggest
thing that ever happened to Florida.
It's going to shove all Cuban travel
and freight through Florida, and it's
going to make of the Island City the
one important, because nearest and
most direct, point of embarkation for
the Panama canal. That was Sena-
tor CriIl's work, and not only that

Several of those present also spoke
In approval of DR.. Grill. Then Mr..
McRae said: Dr. Grill is undoubt-
edly one of the purest men in poll
tics in this or any other state. |
don't know as he would run but will
say that if he was governor of Flori-
da there would be an end to graft
and the affairs of state would be
conducted in Il dignified manner
something that has not always been
during these latter years"
Travelling men not only sell goods,
but they build political sentiment,
and their differences are generally of
the most sensible sort.

There is a sto:E Of Crockett of
"Stickit Minister" fame to the effect
that when he oIcrea his first volume to
a Scotch firm they returned it with a
polite note assuring him that there
was no market for that sort of thing.
The letter was marked "No. 30Gb." In
later years when the same publishers
asked him for one of his manuscripts
he politely requested them to refer to
their previous correspondence with
him marked '39Gb."

for breach of promise declared to the
Jury that 1t was impossible for him to
contradict lady and that therefore
he would not deny that he had made
the promise, but he insisted that the
lady had exaggerated the value Of his
affections and that that value was a
fair question for jury. The lady re-
covered per cent or so of her original
claim, and the mulcted nobleman de-
clared that the cross examination Of
her by his counsel was amply worth
