The weekly true Democrat. (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1905-1912, 1907-06-21

Our old TREND Russell, of the Brooks
vile Argus, does not let his devotion to
BrOward and Jennings, and their meth
DDS, stand in the way Of his duty as
journalist to speak the truth TO the peo-
pie concerning public affairs. He says:
We do not see how the people are
going to stand the present rate Of taxa
ton, which is increasing every year.
One cause Of the increase is the con-
stantly increasing state control of
county affairs, which should be left TO
the counties. Every addition to state
control calls for additional state Off
GERS to make it effective. And state
officers come high. Examine the pay
roll at Tallahassee and see what the
transferenCe Of local self-goverment to
state control costs in dollars and cents.
Would it not be- better To go back to
first principles and lower taxation.

Editor Frank Harris. Of the OcaIa
Banner, evidently has IN his possession
bunch of pigeon-holes where he keeps
a choice collection of facts and sayings
about divers public characters, and
when the announcement was made Of
the candidacy Of Hon, K. Hudson Burr
for the Governorship he looked up that
gentleman record and thcrcupon made
the following comment:
Mr.. x. Hudson Burr in his second
campaign for railway commissioner ex-
planned that he had not accomplished
the things that he had desired to accom-
plish during his first term, because he
was minority on the board. Now he

News of the Railroads
Local and General.
SPECIAL SUMMER EXCURSIONS.

The Grand Rapids and Indiana has
announced a series of special summer
excursion rates to points in northern
Michigan. The regular round trip rate
to all points will suffer about a 81 re-
duction. Instead of the rate being
$685. from Richmond to Petoskey, as
has been the case in former years,
the summer rate this year will be
S1295.
The actions of the G. r. & I. are not
exactly understood in Richmond. The
road has refused on several different
occasions to grant excursion rates to
assemblies and meetings along the line,
but still is ready to cut it's rates on
other things of similar nature Re-
trenchment is supposed to be the pol
icy of the road and it hardly stands
to reason that the road would cut the
rates on the most profitable source Of
business which invariably falls to it's
care, if retrenching on account of
losses suffered through the two-cent
law.

OVER SUNDAY EXCURSION.
PENNSYLVANIA RUNS ITS FIRST
TO CHICAGO THIS WEEK.
This Announcement Sets at Rest All
Rumors That Plan Would
Be Adopted.

The Pennsylvania will run its first
"Over Sunday" excursion to Chicago
next Saturday night leaving this city
at 1920 o'clock and leaving Chicago
at eleven o'clock Sunday night. There
has been much speculation in Rich
mond for many weeks in regard to the
Sunday excursion proposition to Chi
cago, and it was predicted freely that
no Chicago excursion "" Id be run
this season. The rate of-ered by the
Pennsylvania will be $500 for the
round trip. 1t has been announced To-
cally that they will continue at in
tervals during the entire summer.
