REMOVAL OF CAPITAL.

Again the removal of the State
capital is being agitated. resolution
to that effect having been introduced
in the Legislature last {. week, The
proposition is to amend the State
constitution by the necessary vote
and move the capitol to Live Oak
The effort may not cause the COM
motion it did several years ago, when
a vote was taken and resulted in
favor of Tallahassee, which has al
ways been the capital, except short
time, when st. Joseph was the CAPT.
tal-a place not now even in exist
enee.
II there is to be vote on the sub
ject 1t certainly cannot be confined
to one town or place, and as before
the aspirants will doubtless be num-
erous.
Live Oak Is not very far from Tai
lahassee, but it is contended that it
is nearer the center of the state and
more accessible than Tallahassee
Live Oak, however, is also a dry
town like Tallahassee If the reso-
luton for the amendment is adopted
by the legislature the scramble for
the coveted prize will be interesting.
A South Floridian writes that If
there is to be a change of place he
favor Jacksonville above all other
places. This prominent Floridian de-
clares there is no other place the
equal of Jacksonville for the capital
The people would not have to wait
for the necessary city improvements
to be made, but he says, because
they are now here and ready
There is a strong sentiment, how
ever, against removal and Tallahas-
see may remain the capital for many
more years. Jacksonville can very
we'll afford to be magnanimous in
this particular, though if a new place
is to be chosen Jacksonville would
ask recognition. To remove the cap
ital would be serious blow to ITALIA
hassee, and many would regret to see
it deprived of its distinction as the
capital city, though perhaps believ-
ing other places better suited for it.
Jacksonville Metropolis.
The resolution for the amendment
to remove the capital to Live Oak has
not as yet been passed by the House,
but Notwithstanding that fact we are
perfectly willing that Jacksonville,
! enter the race, also Ocala, Lake City,
Gainesville. Miami, Key West, Tampa
Orlando. Pensacola, Tallahassee, and
all and every other city in Florida
Let the scramble be interesting in
the extreme that the race may be
fast and furious. Live Oak would
rather win from the whole bunch
than from any one of them.

We would like TO get hold Of the
committee In the legislature that re-
ported unfavorable Representative
Dorman's amendment to the consti-
tuition to move the state capitol TO
Live Oak. The Democrat has been
slow to believe that the third house
at Tallahassee had any great influ-
ence with members of the legislature,
but now we don't know hardly what
to believe. Some say the Peoples
Lobby" are to blame for the whole
thing, while others say it was COM
bination-Peter knight and the
Peoples Lobby working together
with their combined strength that
practically killed Live Oaks chance
for favorable report But be that as
il may, there Is one consolation left
for US after all. That is in years TO
come when Peter knight and the
Peoples Lobby" will have passed
away, Live Oak will be right here
and so will the Democrat, and then
IL not until then. Live Oak may have
an opportunity to secure the State
capitol. We mention Peter Knights
name in this connection not because
We believe he is responsible for the
measures defeat, but because he is
in Tallahassee exercising his right
as a citizen in behalf of legislation
he desires to see defeated or enacted,
as the case may be, and when meas
ure is enacted or defeated, Peter
knight is accused of having a hand
In IL. But as We stated in the out
set, we are after that committee.

committee of that body reported ad-
versely the proposition to move the
capitol to Live Oak?

Many inquiries have bean received at

DUE TO GIFT OF SPEECH.
Many and Various Are the Benefits"
Says Writer in Puck.

The gift of speech is the last proof
Of divine favor, in virtue of which
mankind has the rest of the animal
kingdom faded, and stands in class
by himself. Some beasts are stronger
than men, and some know more, but
no beast can be such a bore as man,
nor can any beast slop over, in the
true sense Of the term. These dis
tinctions we owe to the gift of speech.
The gift of speech, moreover, lays us
under compulsion to read a great
many things which otherwise we
would not, in order that when we
have nothing to say, we may never
theless say something. Thus we pro-
mote the publishing business, create
demand for wood-pulp, assist in the
deforestation of the earth's surface,
stir up new school of kickers, in
crease discomfort and contribute, at
length, to progress and petulance. Our
ancestors used to consider speech
means of concealing thought, but we
have nothing to conceal.-Puck.

The Coward in US All.

One little sentence written by V. v.
V. in the Sphere stabs one rather
poignantly. 81 am coward at heart"
There are things that man suspects
about himself but does not say, says
writer in the London Chronicle. For
example, you may see a man grinning
when he is accused of being a cynic,
but one has not heard a man saying
calmly and seriously, II am a bit Of
snob." Snobbism is not a vice for
the public confessional You may &C
cuse a man Of being a 'Lothario" and
he will be pleased. If you call him
coward-it is a challenge. Yet there
is always the swapping point. And v.
V. V. shows his courage in confessing
the universal failure of civilized man,
