Drove an rIehtcrn-in-hnnd.

Many years ago well known New
Yorker, one of the Livingston family,
who had lived for many years i'm Flor
ence, used to drive siX-in-hand there
every afternoon. He was very &C.
centric individual and gradually in
creased the number OF his horses until
strangers in Florence would note with
amazement every afternoon on the Cas-
cine a white headed gentleman driving
an extraordinary procession OF horses
harnesscd together two and two some
times as many as eighteen. 1t was one
OF the sights of Florence. Old Mr.. Llv-
ingston fooled his team safely for a
few years but finally they bolted and
ran away. Nothing could stop eighteen
horses, and the smashup was some
thing terrific. After that the authori-
ties OF Florence forbade Mr.. Living
ston TO drive more than four, and in
disgust he shook the dust of Florence
from his feet and never returned.

Miami Record, March 24.)


The Imagination of the gifted editor
of the Jasper News must have been 80.
vcrely strained to evoke the editorial
quoted, from the actual facts.
Mr.. Gautier, when asked ~ to the oc.
currence, says that while the "old wo'
man." who, by the way, is one of the
brightest Of the elderly ladies Of Miami,
and who does not own foot Of land
affected by the drainage tax, was in his
Office ut the time pointed out by the
News, there was not a word uttered in
relation to the drainage tax question.
There was no complaint on her part as
to higher taxes. The only complaint
made by her was that she inadvertently
brought less money that she ought to
have done in order to pay the small
amount assessed against her property.
II the News man had been entirely
fair he would have asccrtained that in
Dade County the County Commission.
ers have raised the millage from I'D To
81 mills, and that in many cases the
valutions have been raised, making on
the property possible doubling'up OF
taxes.
While there is much complaint that
local taxes have been largely increased,
there is no complaint from actual resi-
dents of Dade County of the drainage
tax, and none is ever heard except from
those who live elsewhere, own property
here which they are holding as a spec
ulation and who are opposed to the poll
cies of FlOrida's Governor.
The perversion Of simple incident
into mendaciOus attack on great i'm
provcment is unworthy the editor OF the
News, and indicates that all his argu
ments against the drainage proposition
are based on false premises.

How History Is Made
Two Entirely Different Views of the
Same Subject by Two Florida Editors
(Jasper News, March %. }

NpuSpti INtWbJ MuiCH GO'
On Monday afternoon, the 9Th of this
month, the editor of this paper and Sen.
ator Frank Adams stood in the Tax Col
lcctors Office in the courthouse Mt Mi.
ami, in Dadc County, waiting their turn
to make inquiries about taxes.
An old woman was waiting, likewise.
When her tax receipt was written out
and handed to her, she remarked that
there must be some mistake, as hereto.
fore her taxes had been between three
and four dollars, and now it had reached
between seven and eight dollars. She
was informed by the Tax Collector that
drainage tax" had been imposed, and
that this tax constituted the difference.
The Tax Collector further informed her
that some persons had refused to pay
this drainage tax" but that his in
structions were not to issue O receipt
unless such tax was paid. The old wo-
man said she couldn't 60 to law, that
she would pay it, but not having money
enough, she would leave the receipt and
return for it the next day. Then she
departed.
This occurrence was after the decision
Of the United States District Court had
decided the act declaring the drainage
commission null and void, and after that
courts decision that the drainage COM
mission had no power to assess and col
lcct taxes.
This drainage tax" is still being col
lected in Dadc County from the poor and
ignorant and helpless.
The very ones who should be protected
by the law are robbed under forms Of
law, about the illegality of'whioh they
know nothing.
It is fearful state Of agairs when
those to whom is entrusted the cxecu-
ton of the laws ignore the laws and
Cypress the poor because OF their ignor-
ance and poverty.
II is a shame.
1t is burning shame.
