WHAT THE LAMAR-WILLIAMS EPl'
SODE ILLUSTRATES.

The Lamar.Williams episode in Con-
Urcss contains number Of interesting
features, but the chief and most impor'
tant one IL the fact that 1t emphasizes
the one great difference which has con-
tinued to rend the Democracy for years
the difference between dO-nothing CON
servatism and an active, dO-something
radicalism. :,
Leader Williams was mad because his
party colleagues would not permit him
To kill all effort Mt reform in railroad
legislation and because some OF them,
notably Representatives Lamar and
Shackieford, dared brave his petty tenn
per: he took advantage Of his position
M minority leader to chastise them after
the manner OF his kind.
In this little episode, Representative
Lamar has demonstrated that he stands
for something in Congress and that ne
il not afraid to let "Icader" Williams
and the rest of the country know 1t.
Mr.. Lamar stands for a radical do
something Democracy. John sharp
Williams stands for the same kind OF
Democracy that dominated the st. Louis
convention, and that got the worst drub.
hing in its history in the campaign OF
1904.
For the present the minority leader
no doubt has the advantage over any
Democratic Congressman who does not
bend to his will, but the advantage is only

COTTON'S RISING PRICE.

The rising price of cotton and the
logged determination of the Southern
farmers to hold their staple in order
to force better prices constitute a very
live theme at the present time. Henry
Irving Dodge, in a recent article, de.
clares that Europe will bear the bur.
den of the rising price and that there
sis little to cause us worry" Certainly
the South is not worrying. Continuing,
MIR. Dodge adds;
1T is said that the welfare of the
world turks in the cotton seed. Truly
the potency of this tiny thing is meal.
culable. For n long time the resource.
full minds have devoted themselves to
multiplying its usefulness, with the re.
suit that to-day it enters basically into
an incredible number of our industries,
and through their ramitications has be-
come u most active factor in our com.
merce. Not alone in n new way, but in
new fields, does this heavcn-sent staple
bless mankind. The distinguished
Henry w. Grady said: Il believe that
every missionary of the gospel, as he
penetratcs the wilds of Africa or the
islands of the sea- is an advance agent
for Southern cotton What field, then,
did Mr. Grady's words unfold, since only
two.thrds of the human race have ever
seen cotton. Practically the whole civil
lied world is looking to America for its
supply of the raw staple.
CLEARLY, then, our planters hold the
key to the situation at present. LOgi'
cally, higher prices will impel increas'
ing planting and crops, But cotton re-
uuires the soil, climate and population
peculiar to our belt, and this has n ply
steal limit. Unfortunately, when 1t
ceases to expand it cannot 90 skyward
like our New York city property. there
fore, prices must. Evidently the plan.
ter's worst days are behind him. lie need
not think or talk any more nonsense
about burning his cotton or restricting
his plant. The momentum that demand
has recently obtained has obviated all
that"
This il most encouraging view, and
vet il is n perfectly logical one. As the
world grows the demand for cotton In.
creascs. Az new markets are opened
more cotton il required for the people
who patrOnize those markets. The po'
sition of the Southern planter Is
strong one. lie IL organized and he II
determined. lie has the situation well
in hand. It only remains for him to
continue to control 1t through united
action.-l'allahasse Capital.

BLACK MAN MADE WHITE.

Most Of us laugh heartily at the dis
closures of fraudulent use Of the
United States mails, in which James A.
lIerlithy of Chillicothe, Ohio, was found
guilty Of using the mails to advertise
the sale Of u preparation to make mt
groes white. "Just like negro to bc
fooled In such fashion," we say. Well,
how many white folksy The negro only
wanted his skin made white, but the
white man buys all kinds Of stuff to
renew his heart, put new liver into
him, strengthen his brain, put new life
into his blood, and do many other re-
markable feats. In this, as In other
things, the negro only apes the white
man.--Orlando Reporter

We know for a fact that Governor
BrOward has good reason to believe that

The editor Of the Courier was one Of
those who supported Mr.. Broward in his
race for Governor, and we did it with
out compensation or hope of future re-
ward. We have never gotten anything
or asked for anything at the hands OF
the Governor, and consequently know
that he could have had no reference to
us, but az he seemed to speak with au-

think that he thus spoke because of

will not cost you of the west, middle
and northern counties of the State one
cent to drain them. We ask that you
shall sustain us in this scheme because
we are making a few people IN four
counties in the extreme southern part
of Florida pay every dollar for the
work" | submit that this will be an
appeal to the cupidity, the dishonesty
and the meanest characteristics of the
human mind. II will be asking the
great majority of the people of the
State to help rob small minority for
their benefit. This is plain English and
frank language, but l. is exactly what
is proposed When Governor Broward
boasts that he is willing to go before
the people of the State to back his
scheme, he proposes a campaign based
upon the spoliation and plumber of the
few for the benefit of the many. He
proposes the practical confscation of
3, 900, 600 acres of land in the drainage
district (fOr it will amount to that and
to ask the majority of the PEG pie Of the

so dishonorable and unprincipled as TO

AND AT WHAT COST?
The worst Of it is that entering upon
this work is like q man in q cave, dark
az hades, and without a glimmer OF
light penetrating it, Who can tell what
the cost will be? | have heard II esti-
mated that the cost Of thoroughly
draining the Everglades will aggregate
as high as SIS. 900, 900 or $40, 900, 900.
After confiscating by taxation the lands
Of private owners, the cultiyable land
drained in the Everglades will not sell
for enough TO pay the aggregate cost
Of the entire drainage.
The great mass Of the lands IN the
Everglades are at present remote from
transportation. To construct navigable
canals through these lands IN sufficiently
close proximity 70 each other to become
available for shipping their products TO

vide the necessary reservoirs OF water

matter in it reaches it's perfection.
Bitter experience has taught vegetable
growers that even on the Bay of Bis
cayne frost will kill their growing veg
etables occasionally, and sugar cane
cannot stand frost.
Governor Broward's dream of con-
verting the Everglades into paradise
of sugar plantations was worse than a
hasheesh fantasy. 1t is difficult to i'm
agine what sort of dope has been in
jected into his mind by the men who
are really behind him in this scheme,
but no man who has studied the history
of the sugar industry and who is adj
vised of the millions of acres of sugar
land lying untouched within the tropics
because of the competition of the beet
sugar and the lack of labor to cultivate
these lands will regard the Governor s
prediction in this particular as other
than the veriest 'moonshine dream
ing
BUT-EVEN IF SUCCESSFUL,
But, even admitting that the scheme
would result as the Governor and his
associates predict it is clear then that
the draining of the Everglades would
not confne it's benefits solely to the
small section of the State embraced in
the drainage district, but would confer
immense wealth on the whole people of
the State of Florida If the three and
a half millions of acres of land owned
by the State, when drained, will be of
the value Gov. BrOward predicts, then
they will be worth from $4,000, 900 70

A DESERVED
PROMOTION.
Col. S, c. BOylSton Promoted and Col.
A. 0. HACDOnell Becomes General
Agent OF Passenger Depart
ment, 5, A. 1. Ry.


Effective today Col. S. c. Boylston,
Jr. who has for a number of years
been passenger agent of the Seaboard
Air Line Railway, becomes assistant
general passenger agent of the system,
with headquarters in Jacksonville, sue
ceeding Col. A o, MacDonell, who be-
comes general agent of the passenger
department of the road.
Col, MacDoneil has for many years
filled the position with the Seaboard
and the roads that preceded that road
in the ownership of the lines traversing
Florida He is considered one of the
most efficient and competent railway
officials in the South, and the change in
position is entirely satisfactory TO him.
In fact, il has been made to comply
with his wishes, and he will still be
actively engaged in looking after the
interests of the company. He is in full
sympathy with the policy of the com
pany and his many friends will be
pleased To know that he will still be To-
Gated in Jacksonville
The appointment Of Col. s. c. Boyls-
ton, Jr,, will give universal satisfaction
to his numerous friends throughout
TIOI(ld anu the country generally, LOT
he Is one of the best known and most
popular railroad officials in this section.
1t is a we'll deserved promotion, for he
has been associated with Col A. O.
Mac Donell for the past nineteen years
He entered the service of the roads
that have since been absorbed by the
Seaboard upon coming to Florida in
1897, and has never made a change,
being constantly in Col MacDonel's
office, and has filled every position,
through the grade Of clerkships, until
now he is made assistant general pas
senger agent of one of the greatest
railways in the country. As Mr.. Boys-
ton has sometimes remarked, II have
never drawn a months pay from any
other source since | started with Col.
MacDonell
Such a record of continuous service is
worthy of recognition, and all who
know the new assistant general passen-
ger agent are satisfied that the Sea-
board will learn TO still further appre-
ciate the value Of his services
No other changes have been announced
in the passenger department of the
SCabOaTd.
