True as a Parable.

If Florida railroads would pay less
attention to tourist travel during the
winter months and more to the set
Ting the state with German farmers,
Florida would be recOmpensed in part
for the tremendous land grants given
TO the corporations in times past. AS
it stands today. no effort is made by
the railroads to secure this German
immi grafton. hence everything gOes
west: and the plains of the west are
dotted with farms owned by this en-
ergetic German people who know
how to farm. raise horses and many
other profitable things. Immigration
can be secured for Florida if the
work is done in proper manner.
Special agencies should be established
in the old countries that are OverdOne
| with population, and the men in
charge of these agencies will not find
! it at all difficult to turn the tide Flor
idaward. Florida railroads owe
something to the state and its citizens
and they could pay that debt and al
the same time make it profitable to
the corporations Times

conditions. The outgoing negro tide
will have to set in toward the cotton
fields again. and the change cannot
come too soon to save the situation
for the negro. Men may say the
negro will always be with us, and
will always constitute our principal
labor in the south, but the assertion
is puerile in the presence of the con-
crete fact that the negro is abandon
ing farm labor in all parts of the
south. and the planters are pOwerless
to keep him at work.
The Post prefers that the first ex-
pertinent with foreign labor for the
southern farms be made with
European labor If we can not induce
the Europeans to come in sufficient
numbers, we may eventually be driven
to the Chinese labor market.
When Europeans or Orientals take
the places of the millions of southern
negroes. what is to become of the
latter? That is another question. For
the present it need only be said that
the south will save her cotton indus
| try.

inquired of us regarding Florida In

ate today accepted the statue of the late
John James ingalls,, for eighteen years q
member Of the United States Senate from

airy hall. There were seven addresses.
Mr.. Long devoted the greater portion of
his address to a consideration of the rea-
sons why Mr.. ingalls, was not reelected
in 1891 and said:
And then, as if in some measure to
atone for the injustice they had done him,
the people of Kansas provided that his
marble statue should stand forever in the
hall near this chamber in which his great
work was done"
Mr.. Long called attention to the fact
that tomorrow Kansas will celebrate the
forty-fourth anniversary of her adms-
sion 30 the Union, and that MI Ingalls,
made an unavailing effort to have John
Browns statue placed in the national
capitol.
The other speakers were Messrs. Ali
son, Cockrell, Platt Comm, German,
Spooner and Daniel.
In the gallery was Mrs. ingalls, and
her daughters; Mrs Senator Long, J. L.

were present also a large number of
other Kansas citizens.

never make an adequate explanation Of
its failure to keep Mr. Ingalls, in the
Senate.

Sawyer County Homesteader Publishes

Chippewa Falls, Wis, Jan. 23.-John,
Dietz, the man who has been holding up
the drive of the Chippewa Lumber and
Boom company Oh the Thornapple river
and defying the orders and iniunctions of
Judge Parish, has issued a letter to the

In brief Dietz says that every official
in Sawyer county is a tool of the Chip
pewa Lumber and Boom company, that
the public funds are misused and that
twenty-five of the thirty-eight townships
in the equity have neither a public high
way nor a school. He declares that the
company has no rights, since, according
to him, the abstract and copy of records.

to Test New Water Works Sys-
ten-Rebuilding Expected.

The worst fire in sixteen years occurred
here last night, when the large agricul-
tural implement warehouse belonging to
John G. Muir was burned to the ground,
together with all the contents, consisting
of large stock Of farm machinery.
The fire was discovered about 6 o'clock
last evening and the volunteer fire de-
partment had its first opportunity to use
the water works system established three
years ago. The building destroyed was
tWO-Story frame structure. Mr.. Muir is
out Of the city and the exact loss cannot
be determined, but it will reach many
thousand dollars, largely covered by in
surance. 1t is believed that Mr.. Muir
will rebuild at once.
