A Difficult Problem.
The Board of Control have before
them a difficult problem in the reor-
ganizatiOn and FeviVfticatiOn OF me
State institutions for higher ed
ucation; but we have abundant
faith in their ability to solve
It. They are working earnestly
and zealously, but with commend
able caution: and their efforts
should have the hearty moral sup
port Of every friend Of higher eduea-
ton In the State. He Is not a true
patriot, nor even a good citizen who
would throw in their way one single
obstacle, or seek to embarrass or
hinder them in the execution OF their
plans.-FlOrida School Exponent.

tackles Well Behaved,
According to the New York papers
the sailors Of the North Atlantic
squadron conducted themselves in a
highly exemplary manner while en-
loving their shore leave there not
long since. This is the experience
OF Pensacola with these hardy sons
OF the sea, who are accustomed e
pat in a few months there every Win
ter in target practice. In comment
ing upon this the Cleveland Plain
Dealer saws: There has been a dis
position to regard the navy seaman
as an overgroWn and more or less II
responsible child. It was once taken
for granted that when set ashore fol
a few hours after a confinement o.
months on shipboard he would heat
straight for the nearest grogshop ant
steep himself in the cOarsest debaueh
cry until his savings were exhausted
This comic weekly type of the navy
sailor, which stin looms large IN tn
| imagination Of the average citizen
was once merely a earicature. but
has now become a positive and insult
/ ing libel. "-JacksonVille Times Union
Never Satisfied.
Montana brings forth the "vinelesI
potato" Now let us have the "bite

Impressions of Judge Carter
Judge Carter has made a most IA
4 vorable impression upon both ba
and laity by the promptness and I'M
parriality of his rulings from tn

he is fulfilling all the rosy prediction
made for him by his host of friend
all over the circuit who predicte'
that he would make as good judg
as E. c. Maxwell, who for a lonl
time will be the criterion by whom
ali other judges of this circuit will d
compared.-DeFuniak Breeze.
