A CHAPTER ON DEMAGAGUES.

The New York World, a former
democratic newspaper. is denouncing
Mr.. William Randolph Hearst as a
low flung demagogue.
The World should sweep before its
own doorstep before hurting its cpl
thets at others.
AS demagogie newspaper it heads
the procession.
In proof of what we say here We
cite an example:
One Simon Sterne propounded the
following question for the World to
answer:
"Will the World tell us-for it
knows if it chooses to tell-why
Thomas F. Ryan is supporting Mr..
Hughes?"
To this question the World remain
ed profoundly dumb until pressed for
a reply and then it gave the
following answer:
"Ten years ago Mr.. Hearst and his
newspapers were urging the laboring
men of New York to cut their wages
in two by voting for a 50-cent dollar"
Talking about low flung demagog-
cry pure and simple how is the
Worlds reply for a rich specimen?
Is it not hard hit and hard pressed?
That is not ALL
Another subscriber wanted it to give
a speciment of Mr.. Hearst's insincer-
ity.
Here is. what the World gave him:
"Mr. Hearst, after denouncing Muir.
ply, accepted the democratic nomina-
tion at his hands.
Why could it not have given a can
did answer instead of thus resorting
to the dodge of the demagogue?
The democratic party in the great
empire state of New York numbers in
its ranks many of the most honest,
many of the most sincere, many of
the most intelligent men in the Un-
ion, and to even intimate that these
men composing this great party are
controlled by single man, is a spe-
cies of demagogery nowhere excell-
led.
The World is the very Prince of
Demagogues and is entitled to more
than the Ananias cup.

Fine erapefrult.

Mr.. p. Noonan brought to the
Record Office this morning a beauti-
full cluster of grapefruit, grown on
his place, at the corner OF Weeden
and .DeHaven streets. In the bunch
are six fine fruits. and they weigh
z 1-2 pounds. Unfortunately the boys
of predatory habits have been preying
on the fruit, and Mr.. Noonan was
compelled to harvest the crop before
it was fully matured. to save his
trees from injury. He has. however.
demonstrated that grapefruit can be
grown here equal to the best in the
state, and as it is a very profitable
industry. this fruit should be grown
on an extensive scale in this county.

The Manner of Man Speaker Cannon


The Fort Wayne Ind.) Journal
Gazette which claims to have an In.
innate knowledge Of Speaker Cannon,
sizes him up as follows:
Joseph G. Cannon, of Danville, ILL.,,
is the republican speaker of the ma
tional house Of representatives. He
is also a pestlIerous old demagogue
and vulgarian. He is the boss stand
patter. He has been in congress thir-
ty years elected from a boss-ridden
and machine-ridden district. BY
some means he has become immense
ly wealthy. While in congress he has
been identified with every scheme of
public pillage that has been devised
to fleece the people. He has been
the wet nurse of more legalized
gratis than, perhaps. any other man
in the country. At the last session
of congress he did all he could TO de
feat railroad rate legislation, the
pure food bui, the meat inspection
bill and every other measure OF In
terest TO the people. He acted then
as he always has acted, as the friend
and champion of the special interests
which have used the congress OF tbs
United States for their own private
and mercenary purposes.

THE DEBATE DRAWING TO
CLOSE.

The drainage debate is now draw
ing to a close It's advocates and op-
ponents are firing their last shots
and are doing so with some unnec-
essary and Incorporate language.
This paper has printed nearly ev-
cry article that has come under its
observation bearing ON the debate,
whether favorable or unfavorable to
the general proposition of the drain
ing of the Everglades.
Regarding the proposition as an
economic one it has endeavored TO
enlighten it's readers in every way
and did not feel called upon to en-
ploy epithets or invectiyes and rigidly
excluded from its columns all intem-
perate and abusive articles.
1t felt as if the subject were i'm
portant enough to demand intelligent
discussion and glance at its files
will show that it has INDUCED in no
other kind.
On the whole this paper feels that
it has discharged its duty TO the pub

manner that ought to be satisfactory.

callino the World Down.

The course of the New York World is
not pleasing it's subscribers, certain
ly not in this part of the democratic
vineyard.
One of it's Ocala subscribers re-
Gently sent it the following letter
which is likely TO find its way to
the waste basket, but the editorial
writers at least will know how
their utterances are regarded by al
genuine democrats.
The following is copy of the let
ter:
ocala, Florida, October 2S, 1906.
To the Editor of the World:
Does the World still pretend to be
democratic newspaper? If so why
like thug does it sandbag Hearst;
why does it sandbag Bryan; why
does it sandbag the whole democrat
ic platform and everything precious
to democracy and fall down and
worship at the shrine of everything
bearing the imprint of republicanism?
Be anything else, but don't be a
Benedict Arnold!
Why stay in the ranks to betray 1t!
it knows that Depew and Platt and
Odell and Higgins and company are
all behind him pushing his election?
If the World is going to fight the
democratic party why not like the
Sun, join the republican party and
fight it in the open and from the
front?
Why under the semblance and pre-
tense of loyalty and friendship, stab
| it from the rear and within its own
ranks?

FROM oLIGARcHY TO DEMoc-
RACY.

Some curious and little known
facts about Australia are given by
Charles 1-una.u Russell in the cur
rent issue of Everybody's. 1t seems
that a few years ago, Australia was
not a democracy at all, but an oligar-
chy of land owners. No one but prop
erty owners could vote, and in some
cases a property owner had the right
to cast ten votes. 1t was uphill work
to get the suffrage broadened. Mr..
Russell says: "A Queensland man
told me that he doubted that If in
his part of the country they could
have achieved much if it had not been
for the women. Every avenue of en-
ployment was absolutely in the hands
of the entrenched governing classes,
and that every man that agitated for
election reform was not only discharg-
ed, but was blacklisted and boycott
ted. He found it impossible to OBJ
tain employment anywhere.
1T looked like a hopeless fight. Of
ten men were discharged, but the wo-
men, never; they had more pluck than
the men. The savage injustice had
stirred their resentment; one and all
they urged their husbands to keep on
and never to yield. In many cases
wives assumed the burden of sup
porting the family. Some turned
dressmakers, and some cooks, One
family lived four years on an income
of between S. and 81 a week. earned
with her needle by the wife and
mother. With such spirit among
the women, the situation could not
long continue"
There was an uprising against the
oligarchy; manhood suffrage was car
ried, and eventually woman suffrage
also. Mr.. Russen says, "The old
drooling superstition about the infer
iority of woman got a staggering
blow and democracy won such an his
torical triumph as still echoes around
the world"
The landed oligarchv had rrana~~S
the state finances so badly that
Queensland had an annual deficit of
S1,000,000. When the common people
came into power, the first year show
ed surplus of $4,000 and the first
seven nonll.- "a present fiscal
year indicates a surplus of s150.000.

Notions About Babies.

We are again interested in the
subject of babies.
They are the dearest little things
in creation. Every movement of
their little hands; every smile on
their lips; every dimple on their
cheeks are more precious in the
eyes of their fond parents than the
richest jewels.
Bless the babies and may they in
crease and multiply.
While on the subject of babies it
may be interesting to know the no
tions concerning them by various ma
tions.
The washington Star says:
In Spain the baby's face is swept
with a pine bough to bring it good
luck.
In some parts of Ireland a belt of
woman's hair is placed around the
child to keep harm away.
In Holland garlic. salt and bread
and steak are put into the cradle
of new born baby.
When Grecian mother is putting
her child into the cradle to sleep
she turns three times around before
the fire while singing her favorite
song to ward off evil spirits.

We presume that some people
think newspaper men are persistent
dunners. Let a farmer place himself
in a similar position and see if he
would not do the same. Suppose that
he raises thousand bushels of corn.
and his neighbor should come and
buy, and the price was one dollar or
less, and says, Il will pay the amount
in a few days" As the farmer does
not want to be small about the matter.
he says, "all right Another comes
the same way, and another, until the
whole thousand bushels of corn is
trusted to thousand different people
and no one of the different persons
concerns himself about it, for It is a
small amount they owe the farmer
and of course that will not heir him
any. He does not realize that the
farmer has frittered away his entire
crop of corn, and that its value is
due in a thousand little driblets. and
that he is seriously embarrassed in
his business, because his debtors treat
Ii as a little matter. But if all would
pay him promptly, which they could
as we'll as not. it would be a large
sum TO the farmer and enable him to
carry on his business without diff
ficulty.

Hits Grover Hard.

Once more Grover Cleveland rushes
into print to fight the democratic
party. He has not in twenty years
even voted the democratic ticket ex-
cept when his name was on it. This
time he gives us an interview to help
the republican candidate in New York
for governor. Since his work for the
republican party when he was draw
ing a democratic salary, he has done
nothing worse. He gave his in
fiucnce to help elect Mckinley while
he was eating democratic bread.
That was not to be forgiven. Now
that he is out Of Office and not draw
ing a democratic salary, he is free to
do republican work, but he should an
nounce that he is not a democrat ex-
cept when he is seeking Office. The
only wrong is to stand in the party
lines and fight the party.-Tampa

INQUIRER.

Ans-So far as the average citi-
zen is concerned it matters not who
these lands belong to or who drains
them, so they are brought under culti-
walton and are added OF the resources
and taxable values Of the state; pro-
viding, of course, that they are as
rich as claimed for them.
What boots it to the purchaser if
they can be bought for certain price.
whether the state sells them or the
railroad sells them; whether the state
drains them or the railroads drain
them, providing, of course, that the
lands are made to drain themselves?
Admitting. however, for the sake
of argument, that this were not true,
and the state was actually draining
these lands for Mr.. Flagler with its
own money, has he not done enough
for the state for the state to now do
something for him? Is not turn about
fair play?

a Curious Democratic Newspaper.

Harper's Weekly, a rabid republi-
can newspaper. makes the following
observation:
with the exception of Mr.. Hughes
himself. the most able and Jealous
supporter of the republican ticket in
the state of New York is the New
York World"
Now is not the foregoing nice
compliment for a newspaper, posing
as a democratic newspaper to re-
ceiye, and the World has no better
conception of the proprieties than to
print it.
II seems to us. rather than make
such iiems public. the World would
feel like hunting its hole and crawling
into il and not again poking its head

Col. j. B. Johnson. in the Live Oak

stitution whereby it would give to a
body of five men the power to come
into this county, or any other county,
and build a system of hard roads all
over the county; build them regard
less of what they cost. And suppose
that this proposed amendment would
give to the same body of five men the
power to levy tax of ten cents per
acre on every acre of your land (this
ten cents per acre would be, in addi-
ton to the state and county tax, with
which you are already burdened)
would you vote for such an amend
ment?" If such an amendment were
adopted Florida would quickly be.

The investment by conservative
citizens in business and residence
property is very good indication of
the faith of the citizenship in the
city. Their advance has been grad

with the general prosperity that has
been prevalent in this city. People
who formerly resided in our city on

the change in conditions. There is an
