His presence and work in this

respected by members of the oppo-
site party,
With a Democratic minority in
Congress incapable, as a unit, OF
compelling favorable legislation, is
it not worthy Of congratulation that
we possess a member who has
reached such degree Of eminence
that not only are his opinions IA
vorably received, but his advice
sought and appreciated by those of
opposite political faithi
Such is the standing of Mr..
Sparkman in Congress. where per-
hans he is better known than among
the people of his district, as it is
foreign to his nature to eulogize
himself.
Would it not be folly to defeat
such a man for reelection, and in
view of the Democratic minority
in Congress, an injustice to the
party to withdraw member pos
sessing the strength to force recog-
milton from his opponents'
Mistakes have been the bane of
the Democratic party. In this in
stance, at least, refrain from error.
Only for one reason should an
other be chosen to fill the seat now
occupied by Mr.. Sparkman, and
that is, if at any time he seeks cleo
ton to the United States Senate.
Should he aspire to that position
his triumphant election should fol-
low, as a testimonial to his merit
aud appreciation of his labors in
behalf Of the people.

In the early sixties OF the last cen

used his talent as professional libeler
His real name was Jacquot, bis nom
de guerre Eugene de Mirecourt One
day there appeared a violent onslaught
on Alexandra Dumas pere. The arti
Gle openly taxed the great novelist with
living on the brains Of his collabora'
tors. The father happened to be away
from Paris. The son sent bis seconds
to Mirecourt.
"You say. gentlemen" said the biog
rapher, that you are acting in behalf
Of NJ. Dumas fils?"
The two gentlemen bowed assent
Thereupon Mirecourt rings for his serv
ant. "Tell my son to come to me-" he
orders.
And, to his visitors great surprise
there appears a little urchin, his face
besmeared with jam. Mirecourt, though
remains perfectly serious. Gentle
men," he remarks at last, II feel con
vinced that my son Is as ticklish about
his fathers honor as the son Of NJ. Al
exandre Dumas is aboN his fathers
As 1t is absolutely necessary that the
roles should be equal, you had better
arrange matters with him." witt
which he leaves the two friends Of the
future eminent dramatist.

OF don Quixote" 1t may be said,
saving only the Bible, It has been trans
lated oftener and into more languages
than any other book. A Spanish edi-
tor has enumerated 100 editions Of the
Spanish masterpiece in foreign Ian
guages. That computation is certainly
short Of the truth.
Not only are there more TRANSACTIONS
In English Of "Don Qulxote" than any
other language, but II is England which
from the first has done more honor to
the authors work than any other coun'
try. The first critical edition OF Don
ouixote" in Spanish, with the first life
of Cervantes, by Mayans Siscar, was
published IN London I'm 1913, more than
forty years before the Spaniards had
aroused themselves to do honor to their
greatest writer.
This edition, in four handsome vol
umes. was printed sumptuously in all
the glory Of the Tonson press under
the auspices OF Lord Carteret at an age
when Don Quixote" was still appear

thought of reflection upon the char
acter or the ambition Of Mr.. Phil
lips.
1t is the privilege Of every citi-
zen to become candidate for Office.
Public office is a gift of the peo-
pie, and no man who is chosen for
public service should believe that
he be allowed to hold such posi-
ton indefinitely.
Yet, in consideration of such a
matter, as is now forced upon the
people of this district, do not the
factors of common benefit and po-
litical justice urge that Mr.. Spark
man be retained in the Office he has
SO dignified and in which he has dis
played so high degree of watchful-
ness for the needs of his constitu-
entsi
We think the matter should be
looked upon from that view.
Leaving aside all other points OF
scussion-indeed there should be
no other, as the character and con-
duct of Mr.. Sparkman is beyond
reproach--the question of his use
fulness, both to his constituentsand
to the party of which he is SO strong
pillar, form the basis of the argu-
ment for his retention.
The position Mr.. Sparkman oc-
cupies in Congress is one attained
by faithful and diligent work
through the several terms that he
has served.
No man, no matter how brilliant,
or forcible, can gain success in
Congress, except by following that
same road which in every case re-
quires years of travel.
Flamboyant speeches on the floor
Of the House and press dispatches
Of members doings are not indi-
cations of ability nor marks of value
to a constituency.
Here, as elsewhere, it is the
deeds, not. the words, that brings
the total of actual worth.
In this respect Mr.. Sparkman
has proved his strength. Through
his efforts goodly appropriations
have been made for Improvement
of Florida waters, and the work
thus started will be continued if he
is permitted to retain his seat.
The Rivers and Harbors Com
mittee is the most important to
FIorida of all the Congressional
committees, and in Mr., Sparkman's
membership thereof the State pos
esses a distincr advantage.

ed by frenzied financiers he soon found himself able to pay tribute to the city controller for stall in market. When the fruit companies were at war and rival boats from the tropics arrived on the same day. Pietro bought his banan as cheap. If they were green, he stored them in his cellar, and they ripened with advancing prices. When the im- porters were at peace, Pietro bought ripe bananas because the companies could not ship the inland. The jobber did not figure with Pietro. He recognize ed no middle mans profits save his own. Then the men, who run the ships and buy the fruit by the grove, decid- ed to sell bananas by the pound in- stead of by the bunch. Pietro objected, but he was not recognized. Pietro ceas- ed to be an Italian and became an American as he had seen Americans. "Boycot-a de bahan'," was the slogan. It was not shouted from the house. tops; it was whispered at the stalls. Tn few days Pietro's persistence was ef-
