believing things 10 be 30 does not
always make II 80, and if distressing

A more truthful paragraph never got
into the public print than is the follow
ing, by John G.. Calhoun: 1.-THE very
essence of free government consists in

slowed for the good Of the country, and
not for the benefit Of an individual or
party"

on the next national Democratic plat
form, revision of the tariff, etc,
The Tampa Tribune says Editor
Harris, of the Ocala Banner, does not
approve the thought that revenge Is
sweet : and he is right It Is bitter rs
gall. And II is the fool foundation of
the 'unwrittcn law Yes, and like
the unwritten law, IL should be wiped
from the face Of the earth, for to be
revengeful has not been handed down
20 this generation as legacy as an ex-
Cuse for action of that kind against any
imagined wrong or evil done any one of

vato secretary Of the Governor take It
upon himself TO implore' Republican
President In regard to the appointment

body worked on the susceptibilities Of
the secretary" And forewarned may
forearm the secretary and prevent
him from putting his foot into more Sc
