Some Syrup Making
In This State.

In recent issue, the Tampa Times
which is ever on the alert to say a
good word for Florida and its posi-
bilities-takes up one of our neglect
cd industries in the following manner.
We note in the current news of the
state that syrup company at Grand
Ridge, Fla, has made and divided
among its stockholders profit of
30 per cent, on its operations for the
past year. No details accompanied
the item that came under our obser-
walton, but it is fair to infer that the
statement was correct The Times
has always maintained that the manu-
facture Of syrup on a commercial
scale would be profitable in any To-
cality in South Florida, provided it
was managed with anything. like good
business sense. There ought to be

The Democrat and Drainage.

The naughty and majestic editorial
''I' of the Tallahassee Sun, in the ex-
ercise of his plenary powers of super
vision over the press of Florida, has
at last got around to Live Oak, and,
pointing his august and terrible stub
pencil at the mild and unassuming
Eve" of the Democrat, thunders out
like the Kaiser believing through the
telephone, II command that you get
light on the drainage issue, and if you
don't get light, get out. Scat! Skid
doc! You have no business at the
butt end Of an editorial pencil unless
you know it ALL" The quotation
marks are ours, for the Tallahassee
Kaiser doesn't use just those words,
although he seems to mean it about
that way. 1t is perilous thing to do,
but after calm reflection we have con-
Guided to risk it, disobey orders and
neither get light nor get out. That is
to say, We shall continue to mosey
along in the soft, mystic twilight of

are holding down at these presents

Regarding Personal Abuse.

Governor Broward is making a most
aggressive campaign in behalf of his
Everglades scheme, and that he is
growing stronger in this regard is
generally admitted. If the election
had been three months ago Governor
Broward would have gone down In de-
feat, but at present the result is
doubtful. Broward has gained
strength in certain sections, but adj
vocates like the Mercury, in DeLand,
weaken him on account of the abusive
articles published therein. On the
other hand, the anti-drainage forces
are weakened by the publication of
the extremely vicious attacks against
Governor Broward in the Tavares
Herald and other papers. The facts
pro and con should be given and
abuse relegated to the rear. Cover
nor Broward personally is an honor
able man, endeavoring to do what he
deems to be right. The Metropolis
has found many things in him to criti-
else and does not indorse his drainage
scheme, neither does it indorse the
charges made against him by certain
people The opposition should fight
the drainage plan and leave Cover
nor Broward's personality alone. He
can never be injured by such attacks.
