The Times-Union quotes with ap-
prevail the following criticism OF
Brother Mayes's" editorial policy, as
viewed by the Manatee River Journal:
When, however, it is remembered
that his Tallahassee correspondent is
a member of the official family
drawing two salaries from the state,
1t will not be so hard to realize how
it is that he seems to understand but
one side OF many of the prominent
questions effecting the interests OF
the citizens of Florida
Our Manatee River contemporary
probably refers to Miss Jefferson Bell
whose bright letters in The Sunday
Journal are so readable and entertain
ing. We do not think that any
apology is due either from The Jour
nal or from Miss Bell because of the
fact that she happens TO be an en-
ploye of the state government. 1t is
certainly nothing, to her own or The
Journals discredit, but since the
Times Union has interested itself In
the matter, it might be pertinent to
inquire as to how many salaries the
Times-Union's correspondent during
the recent session of the Legislature
drew, and what connection its pres
ent correspondent has with state
capital affairs?

What VIII the Council
Do With Garden Street?

The Council committee, to which
was referred the Garden street pro-
posed franchise of the street railway
company, is awaiting the report of
the city attorney on certain legal
points before a report is made. This
is eminently proper.
However, not the legal points
which the city attorney is bordering
long and deeply, nor any other legal
points, can justify the committee,
when it does report, in favorable ac-
ton on the middle-of-the-street prop
osition. No law compels it, no COM
pulsion that the public knows of lies
on any councilman to grant it, and
every reason exists why it should not
be granted.
Garden street is as wide as Canal
street, New Orleans, which is one OF
the wonders of the traveller Every car
that rolls in New Orleans, excepting
one line, begins and ends its run on
Canal street. Yet, the very center
of the neutral ground is reserved by
-
exempt as possible from tracks. 1t
will be many, many years before the
necessity of the local street car man.
agement can press for space as does
the exigency of street car traffic in
New Orleans, and public pavements
almost as wide as Canal streets pave
ments can be laid on each side of
Garden street, furnishing more room
in relation to traffic than is the case
on the principal land never con-
gested) street in New Orleans, and
yet leave room for the car tracks on
the sides and a wide park space be-
tween the tracks.
There is but one thing that can JUS
tify any councilman in voting away
the middle of Garden street to the
street cars or anyone else, and that
is by his asserting that the convent
ence of the public carrier corporation
counts for more than the convent
ence and rights of the public and
the beauty of the city.
Any public man who votes away
what the public needs, or that which |
the public could advantageously use
(either at once or in the near future) |
to any grantee who does not abso- |
lutely need it at once for the public |
service, fails to safeguard the public |
however sincere he may be |
in his judgment, for sincerity is only |
one part of what a public man owes
his people, and the other part is
sound Judgment
Does the street railway absolutely
need the middle of Garden street in
order to fulfill it's duty toward the
public? If not, then the middle Of
the street should be devoted. as it
can cheaply and easily be-. devoted,
to being made a heart of beauty in
the avenues of the citys industrial
system, and, when beautified, an adj

to have very exalted opinion of
United States District Attorney Shep-
pard, who is being pushed forward
as a successor to the late Judge

state, and we had rather take his
opinion regarding Sheppard than that
of some others who have endorsed

expression such as normal woman of

picture is mounted on a handsome
oblong card, which bears no trace of
an advertisement, and is, with the
the small calendar leaves for 1908

more artistic medium of advertising

A Fine Exhibition.

The second presentation of the gym
nastic exhibition at the Y. M. @. A.
was the occasion for another crowded
house Saturday night, and the enter
tainment went off with the finished
precision that marked the first produc-
tion on Friday night.
All who saw the exhibition were
loud in their praise of the work done
by the members of the different class
es. Probably the most surprise was oc-
casioned by the fine work done by th e
class of girls, fewer of the people be-
ing acquainted with this feature of the
Association s effort. The little ladies
at their different appearances on the
program were loudly applauded.
Much of the credit for the success of
the entertainment is due to Mr.. Aims
wroth, the physical director, whose
untiring efforts and thorough capabil-
tiles were easily discernible in each
carefully prepared and we'll rendered
number on the program. Mr.. Aims
worth was ably assisted by the faith
full members of his classes, who are de-
serving of share of praise for their
hard work during the months of pre-
paration.

Liberty township, 1; Valley township,
8; Washingtonville, 2.
The applications for license run
nearly the same year after year. Last
year there were 40 applications. There
is one less this year owing to the fact,
that Peter Dietrich's place on Upper
Mulberry street has dropped out. The
opinion is entertained by many that it
will never be a licensed house again.
The only other change is occasioned by
