A WRONG AGAINST
SENATOR MALLORY.
Thanks for Sympathy, But Has Never
Been Sick Enough to Abandon
His Senatorial Duties.

Some weeks ago we saw going the
rounds of the newspapers an item, or
article, claiming that Senator Mallory
was so seriously i'll at Washington that
he had to abandon his Senatorial duties,
never dreaming that it might be fake,
and certainly with no intention of doing
that honorable gentleman an injustice,
or Of injuring him, as would seem from
the following, he has taken it. The
item which was copied in the Pensacola
Journal reads as follows:
Every Floridian sympathizes deeply
with our Senator Mallory in his serious
sickness and regrets that he has to
abandon his Senatorial duties at this
time in Congress.
We gladly publish below a letter
from the Senator, which sets himself
right, and we rejoice with all true
F!oridians that his condition is not so
that he will have to abandon his duties
as our honorable and worthy Senator,
and no newspaper man in Florida has a
higher opinion of him and his worth
than do we:
UNITED STATES SENATE, WASHINGTON,

Editor Of the True Democrat, ITALIA
hassee, Fla;
Dear Sir-The inclosed is a copy of
an item which appeared in the Pensa-
cola Journal of Sd instant, and which l
assume was properly credited to the
True Democrat.
! beg to express my thanks for the
sympathy which you evidently fee for
me, but | am obliged to dissent from
the implication conveyed by your SYM
pathetic notice that / have abandoned
my Senatorial duties at this time.
Permit me to say emphatically that
have not abandoned my Senatorial
duties, and have no intention of so
doing. While have been quite sick
several times during the past winter,
the last attack being a serious case of
grippe. | have attended every session
of the Senate from the day It met in
December last until the present time,
except when compelled to absent my,
self on account Of illness. / have taken
part in the consideration of every inn
portant measure that has been before
the Senate this session, and while l
have been absent good deal on account
of illness, think can truly say that
very few Senators have attended more
sessions Of the Senate than have.
lt.is very probable that those Of your
readers who have seen the paragraph
believe that have abandoned my SEN
atorial duties, something that is not
only untrue, but is in fact without
foundation, and withal very unjust 70
me, and ! therefore respectfully ask
that you give the same publicity TO this
communication that you have given 10
the paragraph ! have been critiCising.
Very truly, etc,

The Tri-Weekly Constitution, of At.
lanta. Ca, published Monday, Wednes.
day and Friday, three times a week,
has added to its other splendid special
features a department addressed di-
rectly to the Farmers Union. This
department. is edited by Mr. G. A Dallas,
a man of large experience broad in
formation and extensive acquaintance.
He manifests deep interest in the ag.
gressive issues of social, political, edu-
cational and agricultural Importance as
we'll as in the economical and financial
reforms advocated by his great order
In the first installment of the depart
ment as it appeared in recent edition
of the Tri-Weekly Constitution, Mr..
Dallas appeals TO all farmers, and es-
pecially the brotherhood, to cooperate
with him in making the department a
success, for it is great opportunity,
and the best should be made of it. The
Farmers Union has been phenomenal
in its growth, and will be true to the
cause of just and right, and will become
the organization that will take the lead
in all the questions affecting the farm
er's condition, and look to his better
ment by a thorough concert of action
under its intelligent direction.
Besides this special new department
the Weekly Constitution has a Sc
ries of twelve excellent novels, run
serially, one each month, by a distin-
guished English author, as we'll as many
other interesting features. Its market
reports are very complete. The Farm
and Farmers department, under the
conduct of Col r. j. Redding, director
of the Georgia Experiment Station, has
been of unusual interest to the Southern
people for fully a generation. The
Womans Kingdom and Constitution,
Jr., conducted by Mrs VIM. King is
one of the best read features Of the
Constitution The chicken column fur
nishes valuable information in its spe-
cial line. Frank Stanton's Just from
Georgia" gives the best work of the
great Southern singer whose poems
are as free and as wild as the chatter
of song birds. VIM. j. Bryan's talks
on his Tour of the World are read with
interest. Other matter is featured and
used to the best advantage. The news
columns are always replete with well
written accounts Of the latest happen.
ings, as we'll as telegraphic news from
the whole world.

What Judge Locke Said.

IN one of his numerous publications
as the spokesman and defender-in-chief
Of the drainage board and its queer per-
formances, Governor Broward endeav-
ors to destroy the force and effect OF
Judge LoCke's decision denying the
boards motion TO dissolve the injunc.
ton forbddng the collection of the
acreage tax by claiming that the re-
ports of the decision published at the
time were untrue. and in support of
such assertion he quotes the formal or
ders entered in the record, well knowing
las do all intelligent personsD that
courts do not include in such entries
the reasons for their decisions, save, a.
in courts Of final resort. when the stat
utes require them 20 put such reasons
on record in the shape Of formal Opin-

and insncere than this attempt of Gov

Lock, in rendering his decision. fully

ITO determine such an important
question 20 select such lands and 20 fix

bility for the purpose of this vast work

positive action by the Legislature.
Thus has been held 10y the Supreme

MAN OF FORCE
AND CHARACTER.
Tim Sullivan Says TAmmany Will
Carry New York for Bryan and
he Would Be Elected
President.

A recent dispatch sent out from Hot
Springs, Ark, says:
"Big Tim Sullivan, of New York,
who has been entertaining party OF
friends at the Springs, has departed for
his home, amid the acclamations Of the
Bryan Democrats.
During his stay here Mr. Sullivan
came out strongly for the Nebraskan,
and, moreover, gave Mr.. Bryan friends
here the most positive assurance that
Richard Croker and Tammany would
line up to a man for the nomination of
Bryan in 1908.
Sullivan is not a new convert to the
Bryan propaganda When the leaders
of the New York Democracy were de-
nouncing Mr. Bryan, Sullivan predicted
that within few years they would be
singing on the other side of their
mouths.
He has been telling with great glee
of his prophecies.
eyes, SIR" said Mr. Sullivan, Bryan
will be the next nominee and the next
President of the United States. New
York will go into the convention with a
solid Bryan delegation, and Mr.. Croker
will head it.
AFTER the last national convention
Mr.. Croker declared that if he ever
went to another Democratic national
convention he wanted to be able to cast
a vote for Bryan, and this time he will
get the chance.
"The insurance, beef trust and other
scandals have opened our eyes regard
ing BRYAN. The fellows who told US
down in New York that he was a dem
agogue are the fellows who are now
~aU1ging. The people are just getting
onto the fact that Mr.. Bryan was tell
ing the truth. The men who tried to
give him a rough reputation have got
all they can do now to protect their
own.
"Six years ago we used to look up to
these fellows and pay attention to what
they said, but they can't get an audi
, ence today. They did the speech max
ing, and, more than that, they raised
the money to beat Bryan. But they
would nave hard times getting anything
in the way of campaign contributions
now
"There is another thing to be taken
into consideration Did it ever occur to
YOU that BRYAN is today the most con-
servative public man of force and char.
acthr in the United States? We thought
he was pretty wild when he was talking
of free and unlimited coinage, but if he
was a demagogue, what have you got
to say about the fellows who are play
ing TO the galleries nowadays?
while lot of people have been run
ninfi wild because of scandals in public
affairs, Bryan has not lost his head. he
still stands for the Constitution, and
when you get to talking about safe,
sane and conservative candidates, you
have to admit that he is about the
safest and the sanest of the coming
crop.

The primary results in Leon county
were particularly interesting. In the
senatorial contest, the administration
candidate carried only one precinct, in
which the total vote was eleven. and
received less than % per cent of the
county vote There were six candidates
for the House. the only one chosen be-
ing strongly anti-drainage; and the only
candidate openly advocating the drain
age proposition received only II votes.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH.
81, 600, 900 Temple Dedicated at nos.
tOn.-One Of Largest Churches In
United States, Seating Over
5000 Persons.

A Boston dispatch of the 10th says:
One Of the most remarkable demonstra-
tons ever witnessed in New England
occurred today when the $1,000, 900
Christian Science Temple in the Back
bay district was dedicated. From every
State in the Union and from all parts
of the world came members of this
faith to be present at the dedicatory
services. IL was estimated that more
than 40, 900 Christian Scientists were in
the city today.
Six Identical services were held to &C.
commodate the vast throngs, but even
then thousands were unable to gain ad-
mission. The seating capacity exceeds
5000. Each service lasted about two
hours, The occasion combined both the
annual communion and the dedicatory
exercises. 1t consisted of the usual
Christian Science opening exercises, the
reading of the tenets of the church, a
dedicatory address prepared by Mrs.
Mary Baker c. Eddy, of Concord, N.
read by w. D. McCracken, the first
reader of the church, and a lesson SER
mon specially prepared for the occa-
sion.
CONGREGATIONAL SINGING,
The congregational singing was a
feature At the close of each service
Edward A. Kimball, of Chicago, pre-
scented reply of thanks to Mrs. Eddy
general work in behalf of the church.
Mrs Eddy's address dwelt in the
main with Christian Science tenets.
Referring especially to the dedication
of the new temple, Mrs Eddy wrote:
Beloved / am not with you in pro-
pria persona at this memorable dedica-
ton and communion season, but | am
with you in spirit and in truth, lovingly
thanking your generosity and fidelity,
and saying virtually what the prophets
said;
"Continue to choose whom We will
serve
"You have dexterously and wisely
provided for the mother church of
Christ, scientist, a magnificent temple,
wherein to enter and pray. Greatly
impressed and encouraged thereby,
deeply do thank you for this proof of
your progress, unity and love.
The modest edifce of the mother
church of Christ, scientist, began with
the cross; its excelsior extension is the
crown. It's browning ultimate rises TO
a mental monument, a superstructure
high above the works of mems hands,
even the outcome of their hearts, giving
to the material a spiritual significance
the speed, beauty and achievements of
goodness. Methinks this church is the
one edifce on earth which most pre-.
figures self-abnegation, hope, faith,
love, catching a glimpse of glory
The new temple, which is entirely
free from debt, is one Of the most i'm.

Who's Putting Up the nOney7

Some time ago the Pensacola Journal
evinced a very strong desire to know
who it was putting up the money to
fight Governor Broward 8 drainage prop
osition.
We now learn, to our surprise, on
what appears to be good authority,
that shortly after the Banner under
took to meet the Pensacola Journal on
its own ground that the editor of the
Journal was duly furnished with a com
plete list of the gentlemen who are
(putting up" their money to protect
what they conceive TO be their rights,
and that he has not as yet seen his way
clear to give this information TO the
public.
This fact is significant, and there is
more behind it,. Why, let US ask, should
the Pensacola Journal, if il was so anX-
ious to know the truth, conceal the
truth when it was offered 10 il? The
question answers itself.
/, AS our Pensacola contemporary has
seen fit to ignore this reply to its inu-
endoes, the Banner takes pleasure in
referring a statement that should long
ago have appeared in the State press
This statement from the under
signed representative citizens of the
drainage district is an appeal TO the
people of Florida for relief from the
intolerable injustice of the present
drainage law, and also a warning TO
them TO guard themselves against the
