Passion for Union.

Perhaps the number was small of those
who saw more in the issue than this
the union, the unon-ah, they saw that
everywhere, and men were willing to give
the hearts best, in battle and wound and
death. that the union, one and INSOFAR
able, one indissoluble might abide among
the nations of the earth.
Secession was on the lip and in the
brain of half the south. The men who
were to gather soon under the Stars and
Bars were as earnest in their devotion to
their ideals as sincere in their concep-
ton of the essential things as the men
Of the north.
when the axman of Sangammon went
to the White House TO be Gods master
newer in those terrific years. with his
clear cut views of all that the historic
documents implied and guaranteed; with
his unerring instinct of the essential ne
cessities of the situation as expressed in
his great utterances of the preceding
campaigns, the die was cast. The spark
was put TO the train. The thunder of the
first mine at Sumter roared out to blanch
the faces and to shadow the hearts of
Americans.
Dark was the sky. The hopes of a
thousand years grew dim Was God S
plan to fail? Were the Stars and Stripes
that had chanted so brave a song on all
the winds of heaven to be one with the
standards of yesterday-Only a memory ?
Was liberty to die?

of that sad revealing of nation defence

sweeps down on the north. and as the
tragic scene unrolls, God flung into every

Answer of Centuries.

when the union was established it was
the answer to the struggle and sacrifice
of a thousand years. The toilers of the
earth whose brains and souls had been
touched by the awakening of the time, by
the new spirit which changed an empire
into community, and colony into a
free republic, Strengthened their shoulders
and swept into the new march of hope
with great gladness. The planting of
the union was a seeming pledge of the
realizing dim dreams of human brother
hood. 1t was the prophecy of worldwide
freedom. The divine right of kings and
the splendid pageantry of aristocracy died
in the hour that the divine right of the
lowliest man in the world was born, and
the march of the humble began to the
place of liberty.
1.-THE declaration would have been sim
ply document of wonderful dreams apart
from the articles of federation and the
constitution, which ordered life into unit
ed strength. As all were for one. and
one was for all there was alone abiding
guaranty of liberty for any.

ed Saint Abraham, the true and ideal
American, who was statesman, savior and

simple but immortal beauty of his Get

An Event Monumental.

THE events we remember. the achieve
ments we celebrate can never become old
for the true patriot. AS the story of heart
love- old as the race, is ever new, so the
passionate devotion of that intelligent
Americanism TO the race ideal at the heart
of the civil war. that is so eloquently
spoken in it's Sacrificial service, must be
ever new and wonderful TO the patriot
whose heart answers to the high purpose
of the fathers.
1.-The civil war is one of the milestoneS
on the main high-road of human freedom.
1t was an event monumental
THE great heart of free nation keeps
memorial not to feed on the baleful fire
of wars terrible passions, or to glory in
conquest. 1t beats unanimously because
of the great facts that swept through and
were sealed in the issues of that war.
For seven centuries from Runnymede
and its great charter, the main stem of
human freedom had been developing in
Great Britain. Step by step, through
bloody fields and fires of suffering men
had fought and walked to an ever clearer
conception of human rights and liberty,
till at last in the providence of God, the
fathers planted in the Declaration and the
Constitution with their guarantees white
expanse of liberty under the folds of the
Stars and Stripes. The inherent right of
the individual was no more than his OBJ
legation TO service. Over against indi-
vidual liberty there was the federation
of all for the one. The guarantee of abid-
ingness lay only in union.

ADVERTISING BLUEFIELD.

There is much said nowadays of
advertising Bluefield. We need ad-
vertising to bring new industries to
settle here and in their wake the
crowd of the best class of citizens
for any growing town, THE 1aboring
class, but we want at the same time
to be able TO truthfully tell what are
the actual present conditions ex-
listing here and make these existing
conditions such that when capital is
induced TO settle here and labor fol-
lows in its footsteps. it will be to
take up permanent abode.
To this end must we get a rea-
sonable freight rate on goods import
ed. Why should coal, right in the
heart of the finest coalfeld in the
world, cost practically as much as
the same coal does hundreds of miles
away? Excessive freight charges.
The usual commodities of life are
from 25 to 80 per cent. higher than
In towns no nearer the centre of
trade. Why? The storekeeper SAYS

rates.
The rates charged by public ser
vice corporations are 25 per cent.
higher than elsewhere. Why? Ex-
cessive freight is again the answer.
House rental is so per cent. and
more higher than it should be. Why?

more to build. Why? Excessive
freight rates

Orange Trees Budding.

The following from the Courier
Informant tells of the condition of the
groves around Barlow:
Up to few days ago the impress
sion was general that many orange
groves had been killed by the cold
snap of December The impression
seemed we'll founded for time, and
some growers were badly disappoint
ed at losing what they had been years
in bringing into bearing. Then, the
dry weather apparently worked a
hardship on the trees, and combined
with the cold, seemed to put the fin
ishing touches to partially damaged
fruit trees
During the last few days, however,
new hope has sprung up in the hearts
of the orange growers, for the large
majority of trees are showing signs
of life by sprouting out, in many cas-
es to the tips of what was thought to
be dead limbs. In many groves the
loss of wood will be small, but in
some groves the branches are killed
back considerably. Especially is this
so in young groves. In fact, some of
the very young groves seem to be
killed to the ground. However, this is
still in doubt, and may be for some
time to come.
At any rate, there is a strong prob
ability that fairly good crop of or
anges will be shipped from this Sec
ton next fall, as the trees the writer
has inspected are coming on nicely
and will soon be putting on luxur-
liant growth of leaves.
Should we be fortunate enough to
have a rain any time soon, it would
do the orange growers good to wit
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1907-02-13

majority have not yet reached their
prime, and some of the finest Indian
River fruit is shipped to the markets
and disposed of to the private and
fancy trade.
While the north end claims the dis
tinction of being the heaviest orange
shippers, yet there are many groves
in the south end and even this week a
carload of oranges were shipped from
Ankona, and every day small ship
ments are going forward from every
station along the route.
While we would not detract one
iota from the immense value of the
wonderful pineapple crop of St Lucie
county every year, still it is fact that
citrus fruits are gaining ground and
from present indications the harvest
in few years will rival the value Of
the old favorite, the pineapple. But
to the pineapple is due the credit of
developing the county as much as
any one thing and will always be as
sociated with this section as the prin-
cipal crop. However, to the prospec-
tive investor, whose taste does not
run to the JUICY and luscious pine.
there are other lines equally remun-
erative and the orange, grapefruit and
vegetable industries have assumed
vast proportions and are decidedly be-
You'd the experimental point
The pineapple, orange and grape
fruit, the three most famous and best
liked fruit on the market, are all
grown with equal care and profits are
handsome to the man with energy.
St. Lucie county offers to the home
seeker lands adapted to all, and to
the man who wishes vegetables to be
his staple crop, we offer the best in
the land for this as we'll as the fruits.
