Money For Us All.

Cecil Rhodes, the great philan-
! thropist, tells US all how to make
money. He says: you have asked
[ me what | think of the safety of min
/ ing investments; second, what coun-
/ try | consider the richest mining
country; and third, if | would advise
men and women of small means, to
( buy mining stock. | shall answer
your three questions at the same
time. My investigation shows that
% per cent more people lose money
farming, that 20 per cent more peo-
| pie lose money in mercantile bust
ness, that IL per cent more people
lose money in manufacturing bust
ness, and that more lose money pro-
portionately in any of the profess
sions than is lost by investing in
mining stocks.
Mining is the backbone of all
wealth, the spinal column of all GER
tainty. | can see a score and half
of men and women in this hall to-
night who few years ago invested
in mining company at my sugges-
ton, and some only invested few
dollars, because they had only a few
dollars to invest. These persons
have cleared anywhere from twenty
five thousand to five hundred and
fifty thousand dollars 1t is not I'M
common for a good mine to pay the
holders, dollars for every cent they
invest. Often 500 invested in good
mining stock, will pay the fortunate
holder more than 100000 could pos
sibly pay if invested in real estate.
bonds or stocks. In my opinion,
Mexico is the richest mining country
in the world. Mexico, will one day,
furnish the gold, silver and copper
Of the world.
in answer to your last question,
my answer is, that men and women
of small means are the very people
who should invest in mining stock.
They have too little money for or
s per cent to do them much good;
while 10 or 80 per cent on the small
investments would bring comforts to
scant and meager boards. There
are plenty of good mining companies
which pay from 10 to 50 per cent on
stock, and pay these large profits
steadily, and often there are eXcep-
tiOnal opportunities where thous-
ands of per cent are llade almost
Immediately. $40 to S25 well invest
ed, besides paying a good interest
while held, can soon be resold for
hundreds of per cent profit, and in
this way often the poorest man or
woman can quickly climb the ladder
of wealth"
The above was the opinion of Cecil
Rhodes, expressed to his friends, on
ly a short time before his death, and
his advice is surely worth following.
By addressing the Pittsburg-Oaxa-
ca Mining Co., Block 27l6, Pittsburg,
Pa, you can obtain, free of charge,
absolutely reliable information re-
yarding safe investment in Mexico, /
and few dollars invested now, may
insure an abundance for old age.

Political Dry Bones WIN Rattle

The announcement of John n. C..
Stockton that he will be candidate
for governor in the primaries next
year will cause "A rattling of dry
bones throughout Florida. such as
the state has not heard in many a
year.
John Stockton is probably the best
liked and the worst hated man in
Florida. He unquestionably has
more personal friends and more open
enemies than any other one man in
the state. His name is closely iden-
titled with all of the important pO-
litical contests which Florida has
witnessed in the past 20 years, and
his own political history is a story of
alternate success and defeat. But
whether successful or defeated
John Stockton has never known
what it meant to be whipped.
1t was John Stockton more than
any other one man who defeated
Chipley in 1895, and who was direct
ly responsible for Mallory election
to the United States Senate. He
was one of the strongest advocates
of the primary system, although he
was defeated for the United States
senate under that system when he
ran against Taliaferro in 1904.
Stockton has always been Il radi-
cal democrat, and it is reasonable to
suppose that his platform, when he
announces it, will be a radical dOcu-
ment. Whether he will attempt to
take up Governor Broward's policies
where the latter leaves them off. is
yet to be seen, but he and Broward
have usually gone together in poll
tics, and they will quite likely do so
now.
The announcement of Stockton
will probably mean the retirement
OF r. Hudson Burr from the race.
There is not room for two such men
as Stockton and Burr in a race in
which both would draw their sup
port from the same source.
Politics in the state of Florida will
now take on new and more or less
lurid hue, and the "luridity' of the
hue will probably increase as time
goes on.
John Stockton is in the race.-Pen-
sacOla Journal.

How 70 Prepare Simple Mix
ture 70 Overcome Disease.

To relieve the worst forms of Rheu-
matism, take teaspOOnful of the fol-
lowing mixture after each meal and at
bedtime:
Fluid Extract DaudeliOn. one-halt
ounce; Compound Kargon. one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
These harmless ingredients can be
obtained from our home druggists. and
are easily mixed by shaking them well
in bottle. Relief is generally felt
from the first few doses.
This prescription, states a well-kuown
authority in Cleveland morning pa
per, forces the clOgged-up, inactive
kidneys to filter and strain from the
blood the poisonous waste matter and
uric acid, which causes Rheumatism.
As Rheumatism is not only the most
painful and tOrturous disease. but dan
gerous to life, this simple recipe will
no doubt be greatly valued by many
sufferers here at home. who should at
once prepare the mixture TO get this
relief.
Ii is said that person who would
take this prescription regularly, a dose
or two daily or even a few times a
week, would never have serious Kid
ney or Urinary disorders or Rheuma-
tism.
Cut this ont and preserve it. Good
rheumatism prescriptions which real
ly relieve are scarce, indeed, and when
you need it, you want it badly. Our
druggists here say they will either sup
ply these ingredients or make the mix
tureEeady TO take, if any of our read
ers so prefer.

J.LH. Reese of Tallahassee, who

ministration as any other man in the
state, has written the Pensacola
Jolrnal that it is generally believed
in Tallahassee that Gov. Broward
will call an extra session of the legis-

A Caution To Snakes

Commenting on the Ocala "com-
ing OUT convention of last week and
the inconsistencies of some of the
politicians there present, Albert w.
Williamson editor of the Floridian
has the following:
Well, well, well! The way they
talked prohibition was caution to
snakes.
But, publish it not" in the Ban
ner, tell it not" in the streets of
Reddick or Leroy There was a
banquet. And "twant no temper
ance banquet, nuther." And while
many of those candidates present
may be turned out, it is rather a sin
gular coincidence that not a single
glass was turned down until after its
contents meandered homeward in
ecstacies of delight, making glad the
waste places in the dreary red lane"
that led from the mighty lips and
gates so recently closed to the cause
of prohibition and temperance.
Now, there is or should have been
nice little prelude to this play.
Upon their arrival, the good women
of Ocala sent to each of these caDdi-
dates a sweet and pathetic letter,
the covering of which bore a special
delivery stamp. This little missive
modestly implored these awe-inspir-
ing, death-defying advocates of pro-
hibition to prove by their own
DEEDS as well as precepts, the
faith that was in them, and to abb
stain from anything OF an intoxica-
ting nature at that banquet.
But alas! 1t develops that prUhi-
bition is also like the proverbial street
car platform-only intended to get
in on and not to stay on" And
they all tuck sugar in thairn."
Talk about the frailties OF woman!
A man is damned sight weaker!
And as conscience doth make COW
ards of US all so dotE the candidacy
Of the Florida politician make of him
a humbug and liar.

"A POLICY; NOT
A PROJECT


Congress, to convene at the New
Willard, Washington, or December
4, 5 and 6, will be of the ut
most Importance. The second ses-
sion since the reorganization of the
congress, it will be memorable from
the fact that it will give official
stamp to the fact that it was brought
into existence for the purpose of ad-
vocating a broad national policy with
reference to inland waterway and
harbor improvement but committed
to no special project.
That platform, the justice of the
demand for adequate annual appro-
priations for the great work of inland
waterway and harbor improvement.
ana the imperative necessity for in
creased facilities for transportation
have drawn the attention of all
classes of trade and commercial in
terests to the coming session Of the
congress. Opposition to the i'm
provement Of the inland waterway
and the harbor has disappeared.
The country has come to recognition
of the fact that there is no possible
hostility between the inland water
way and the railway, but that be-
tween the two there is nothing but
healthy competition. That fact was
given strong public recognition in
the report of the special committee
of the French Chamber or Deputies
in 1903 in the statement that Where
transportation by water and by rail
are both available, they complement
and complete each other, the one
transporting the heavy materials,
the low cost of which is an indispen-
sable condition to the vitality of in
dustries which, in their turn, ALI
ment the traffic Of the railways"
To that wise conclusion the Ameri-
can people have come as we'll as the
French government, with France ex-
pending on the improvement Of her
rivers and harbors $l,l2O.OC0, $50
up to 1875 and with the government
of the United States expanding for
like purposes only S470,OO0,OO0 up to
and including the same year, aud
with France now engaged in the
construction Of a canal between the
river Rhone and the city OF Aries,
only fifty miles in length yet at a
cost Of l3,703. 90.
The wonderful success OF the
French system, is due to the fact
that France has stood for a policy
and not for a project, with the
French merchant, manufacturer and
consumer reaping the benefits.
Standing for policy and for no
project, insisting on adequate appro-
priations for the great work. annual
ly made, the coming session Of the
National Rivers and Harbors Con-
gress cannot fail in commanding the
attention of the entire country and
in impressing the strength and the
justice of the demands of trade and
commerce on the congress of the
United States.-Com.
