A POOR POLICY.

The steps taken by some Of the
Southern railroads TO draw people
living along their lines TO Tex
90 and Oklahoma seems to be g
poor policy and those who are thus led
to these Southwestern States should
fret inveStiRate the advantages offered
and the advancement being made in
the Southeastern States before making
q permanent move.
There can be no better opportunities
in the West than we offer in Florida in
the way Of farming lands and the di-
versity OF crops gives the tiller Of the
soil ample range TO raise almost any.
thing he might desire. The vegetables
grown here will compare in flavor and
quality with any grown in the United
States and the prices for land are
much below those in the Far West.
The only mistake the farmers have
ever made lie the planting OF inferior
seed, the sole object OF some being to
get vegetable that he can put on the
market early TO get the fret chance, no
matter what the quality might be.
By a careful comparison OF the two
ssctions-Florida and the Southwest
eFn States-it will be noticed that the
climate Of Florida 8 far preferable.
The cyclone does not cause any alarm
or destruction we are not annoyed by
drouthS and scourges of insects to
create havoc with crops. During the
warm summer days we are blessed
with showers that are so regular that
they seem timed by the Supreme Ruler
OF the Universe for our special benefit,
and sand-Storms are not here u annoy
Us.
The husbandmaD can put forth and
harvest his crops with less effort than
those in portions OF the country not 90
favored and when all things are con-
sidered we see no reason why anyone
should leave the moot delightful cli-
mate in the country TO locate where
Sand-StormS, cyclones and other pests
annoy,
II you wish to live in the most de.
lightiul climate come 10 Florida.

ple--Better Service.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. June 3.-"The time
has come for every citizen of Philadelphia
to consecrate himself anew to the cause of
honest government. What we need now Is
men who will be loyal to principle. If the
people of our city would enjoy the fruits of
recent triumphs they must be alert to see
and have the courage to stamp out any evil
that threatens the moral and political life
of o,n. municipality
The foregoing statement was made today
by Mayor Weaver concerning his recent
moves against the republican organization.
The mayor stated also that it has always
been his belief that a city should control
and operate its public works.
Rolla Dance. secretary of the citys civil
service board, was removed from Office to-
day by order of the mayor who also or
dered the suspension of the list of civil sery-
ice applicants except those for medical in
spectors. Mr. Dance is a resident of the
tenth ward, of which State Senator James

law provides various penalties for failure to
comply with all the requirements of the con-
tracts.

The loss of a lower lip is the result of an
assault made upon Richard Humphreys,
colored of IS Pierce's court southwest,
about 8 o'clock last evening. Humphreys

Parker. colored who, it is declared, was
the assailant in the matter.
Humphreys is said to keep boarding
house in Pierce's court, where the brother
of Joseph Parker roomed. A months rent
became due and the creditor asked that the
bill be paid. He says this was refused, and
he ordered the roomer to remove his possess
sions from the house. This the Parkers are
said to have resented, and they laid in wait
for the keeper last evening at the corner of
LIST and n streets southwest.
AS Humphreys came along the ParkerS
are said to have met him with fstic greet
ipgs. In the scrimmage Humphreys lost
his lip, 1t having been bitten off, he al
leges, by Joseph Parker. After the affair
Parker made his escape.
Officers of the fourth precinct station are
