not the purpose, of securing the post

numerous bills In one or the other

time of the session with the same
improbability of passage, to the eX-
clusion of other business needing &C

the Panama, Free Zone Bill relating

Ignorance of the extent of Florida
leads to many amusing mistakes. We
sometimes hear the railroads of the
States charged with making poor time.
Why, ii takes over twenty-four hours
to go from Pensacola to Miami. The
man who makes this remark would
think he was travelling on flyer II
he made the trip from Pensacola to
Chicago in the same length of time it
would take him to go to Miami. But
there is very little difference in the
distance. A land trip from one end
of Florida to the other is as long as
from the lakes to the Gulf.
A citizen of Maine who makes up
his mind to come South may get on
the cars and pass through Maine. New
Hampshire, Massachusetts, COnnec-
ticut. New York, New Jersey, Pennsyl-
vania, Delaware, Maryland the Dis
trict of Columbia and far into Virgil
mia. When he has done this he has
taken no longer ride than he could
have taken by an equally direct line
from one Florida town to another;
and there are. some men green enough
to think they are making poor time
when they find it takes them longer
to go from Pensacola to Miami than
from the eastern to the western side
of Maine.
OF course. the old stagers do not
make these amusing mistakes. They
have a pretty clear conception of the
geography of Florida. There are
many. however. who come on their
first visit with very hazy ideas of the
State.

A LESSON IN THE
GEOGRAPHY OF FLORIDA
Jacksonville Times-Union0

That part of Florida surrounding
Jacksonville was not exactly land
of sunshine and flowers yesterday, and
doubtless many of the people who had
come down TO escape the cold felt
that they had been swindled. There
are those who take every cold spell
here as personal grievance, and seem
to blame the residents for permitting
it to be cold And yet these people
do not come here on account OF any
statement the residents make. They
do not come in contact with the resi-
dents until they get here. They form
their ideas of Florida from the glow
ing accounts given by their friends,
and after they have remained in the
State long enough they are apt to be-
come we'll enough pleased TO give
glowing accounts themselves when
they get home.
But few people have any conception

is south of Charlotte. N C.-about

law says should be done, then will
