DISCRIMINATE IMMIGRATION.

Editor Jordan, of the Punta Gorda
Herald, says that the Ocala Banner
misquoted him in saying that he was
Iopposed to immigration That he is
only opposed to ''indiscriminate i'm
migration and paying our large sums
of money from the public treasury 10
secure same
We rather cling TO the other side
of the proposition.
See what indiscriminate immigra-
ton has done for this country?
In Olden times it was the boast OF
the democratic party that America
was the asylum for the oppressed OF
all lands.
And see what this doctrine led to?
Immigrants landed here indiScrimi-
nately from nearly all the ends OF the
earth and see what a mighty fabric
they have made of this land? See
how loyal TO our institutions and our
flag their descendants are?
See how rapidly the resources OF
the west were developed and what a
giant OF strength it has become?
There was no picking and chOos-
ing on board the Mayflower and for
many years afterwards, Its crew was
"a heterogeneous class.
Our settlers did not spring from the
groins of loyalty. They sprang rather
from the grOins of those who had
met with royal displeasure. Their
wives were sent out in ship loads and
sold to them for a stipulated sum to
be paid in tobacco.
Under different conditions. environ
ments and surroundings. these peO-
pie developed into hardy. rugged and
frugal race and established govern
ment on these shores that will meas
ure strength with any that the world
has ever seen.
In the early years OF this country ;
growth our ports were open TO all alike
and there were no discriminating nor
obstructive laws to prevent any
class from landing. Suppose it had
been different? Suppose We had been
discriminating? Suppose that we had
permitted To land on our shores only
those possessing a certain amount Of
wealth and entertaining certain poll
.:ccl opinions. who believes that this
country would have been what it is
today? rhis very 'indiscriminatiOn"
has made 1t great: pow eTfui and
strOnE.
When you begin 10 discriminate
then YOU begin TO weaken. II YOU dis
criminate in one place you weaken
in another place. Railroads discrimi-
nations in favor of the seaport cities
have almost ruined the interior cities.
Determinations won't do. Treat all
alike. Let every tub stand on its
own bottom. The fttest will survive
and We shall have no cause to be
ashamed OF the outcome. The under
rail Of today may be the top rail Of
tomorrow. But in any event the
strongest rail will always be on top.
Brains. intellect and energy will al
ways dominate and control.

Surprise for Mrs. Fannina

Mre. n. E.3Fanning celebrated her
birthday anniversary last Tuesday
afternoon and although the cele.
bration was somewhat different
from the quiet way in which che
had planned Ito take little) nap it
is needless to say she was agreeab bly,
and happily surprised. It took
Mrs. flaming some time to realize
that the, two score or more of ladies
who walked in upon her were really
acquaintances of today as their
attire suggested that they might
each have walked out of some fash
ion plate of forty years or more ago.
However, the merry company soon
settled down to games and amid
amusing comments regarding
others costumes an enjoyable after
noon was spent. The ladies partook
of dainty luncheon in the dining
room where the birthday cake was
surrounded by lighted candles-we
won't say how maryland an i'm
mense JackHorner pie was suspend
ed from the ceiling from which
each guest drew a favor. The
hostess was presented with hand
some nut bowl as a memento of
the occasion.

HOW TO TRANSPLANT TREES.
Valuable Suggestions That May Well
Be Followed.

Be Followed.
Virginia people, who are anxious
to improve their property, are aided
in the work of transplanting forest
trees by the following suggestions
set forth in recent pamphlet issu=
ed by the United States department
OF agriculture:
"The tree planter should endeavor
always to transplant his trees with
the least exposure of the roots. The
root-hairs, or feeding cells, on the
roots of a plant will shrivel up and
perish if exposed to the dry atmos-
phere for e-en a few minutes.
"The best time to transplant young
trees is just before growth begins
in the spring, when seedlings are
likely to receive the least injury. In
general, planting should be done as
soon as possible after the frost is
out of the ground, the exact period
depending upon local climatic and
soil conditions. In parts of the
country where the winter is the
only season with an abundant rain
fall, the transplanting should be
done during the rainy season.
It is always we'll to choose wet
or cloudy day for transplanting, but
if the work must be done in dry
weather the nurserp beds or trench
es should be thoroughly soaked
few days before removing the trees"

Wolves Are Hunurv.

John Stewart and John Lindq ui at,
homesteaders residing in the north
ern part Of 59-19, were in the city
Monday, Mr.. Stewart making ar
rangements to offer final proof on
his claim this spring.
The gentlemen say that wolves
have been very plentiful in that Sec
tion during the winter, and that the
deep snow has prevented them from
growing fat on venison during the
winter. They are therefore apt to
tackle anything that walks, even a
pet dog owned by Lindquist having
the fear of the sausage-maker put
in him by pack of these gaunt
denizens of the forest Saturday eve-
ming, the dog being chased from a
root-house quarter mile from his
homestead cabin to the cabin door.
Lindquist let go a couple of rifle
shots at one of the hungry beasts,
but his winters starvation had re-
duced the animal to such shadow
that both balls passed through him
without drawing blood.

Will Probe Rance Towns.

Under the above caption the Du-
luth News Tribune of Tuesday
gives the information that the
grand jury, in its report, criticizes
the authorities of range towns for
their failure to properly enforce the
laws, and recommends that the
county attorney and sheriff make
an investigation of existing con-
o'tlons and report to the grand jury
at the May term of court.
Ihe authorities may therefore ex-
pect a visit from these functionaries
within the next six weeks. It would
therefore be advisable to clean up
the back yards at an early date.

nWlll DRAW NEW ORDINANCE.
Providing For Fire Escapes on Public
BUILDINGS IN the City.

Following the meeting of the city
council Tuesday evening, Attorney
Shea brought up the idea of com.
pelling the erection of fire escapes
on the Fay Opera House and other
buildings of public nature, and
was instructed to draw an ordin-
ance to cover.
The jam at the opera house the
previous evening and the uneasi.
ness created by someone yelling
"put out that fire." was responsible
for Mr.. Shea noting the seriousness
of the situation, and the ordinance
will also provide against the over
crowding of the playhouse.
The council had before it sketch
of the proposed new fire hall, sub
mitted by Architect Radcliffe, of
Duluth, and committee composed
of Aldermen Johnson and Prijano-
vich was appointed to 20 to Duluth
to look over fire hall buildings and
fire alarm systems. The installa-
tion OF proper alarm system is
one of the greatest needs of our
city, and has been under considera-
tion by the fire committee for some
time past. It is estimated that the
installation of proper system will
cost approximately 5000.
The presence of the two shacks in
the street at the corner of Chestnut
and Mesaba was brought up, and
upon motion of Alderman Byrne the
chief of police was instructed to
serve a written notice upon the oc-
cupants to move them forthwith.
The chief was also instructed to
notify the owners or occupant of a
big old house on Pine street, near
the tracks, to take care of same, or
the city will take steps to raze the
building on the ground that it is
public nuisance. Complaint is
made that the place is open and
that boys congregate there, and
neighbors fear the setting of fire.
The railroad ordinance received
it's second reading and was amended
to provide that street railway or
other railroad crossings could: be
made across such line.
The report of the city treasurer
showed balance on March 1st of
$3,164.79.

Grab Company Reorqanized.

The Grab Lead & Zinc company,

The company is now running a
drift from a ravine into the hill. and
the mine will be put in shape to be
wrought very cheaply. The pro.

is anticipated all stock issued will
be taken by the present owners.
Capt. Trezona, of the Fayal, is
president of the company, and r.
E. Bailie of this city is secretary
