The new enterprise. (Madison, Fla.) 1901-1908, 1908-01-23

Few men to-day in public life
have been truer to the people
than the Hon. w. B. Lamar.
His record in Congress has been
an unselfsh devotion to duty,
Representing the highest ideals
and feeling for the oppressed
portion of our people a real
sympathy, he has at all times
fought to ameliorate their con-
ditions. And without hesita-
ton l viii say, if merit deserves
the peoples support he should
be sent to the U. s. Senate by a
large majority. And he will
win, but viii be fought by
special interests, for no friend
OF the people can hope to have
their support. To know his
record IS an that is necessary

"Jacksouvilles modesty IN

for political preferment may be
largely due to the striugeney in
the money marEet," is the way
Albert Williamson, in the Flo

must be something the matter
other than the sure enough
modesty of Jacksonville and
Jacksonville politicians.

That was a pretty warm
package our junior Senator
handed to editor Harris of the
ocala Banner. But to be per-
fectly fair the Senator should
not have confined his remarks
to editor Harris but should have
directed them to all of the news
papers which so fagrantfy mis-
quoted him.

Another effort is to be made
to make Jacksonville a great
cotton port where the product
Of our farmers may be stored
and from whence it may be
shipped to all parts of the
world. We sincerely trust that
the effort will be crowned with
success. It has been a matter
Of wonderment with us for many
years why it was that the Flor
ida farmer had to ship his cot
ton to cities in other States,
from there to be marketed, when
our own State has such an ex'
tensive seaboard and enterpris-
lug cities which could by a ht
tie effort. be made cotton marts

UNMANNERLY MOB
JOSTLES THE TAFTS

NEW HAVEN. Conn. June 20
Owing 10 mismanagement on the part
OF the committee OF his old class. rs,
Secretary Taft and his wife passed a
most uncomfortable 20 minutes at the
station in New London. There had
been no arrangement 10 sequester his
party and the consequence was that
when the secretary and his wife APP
peared at the station they were
dumped on the platform. with hardly
a policemtn in sight. and the big
crowd jostled and pushed the pair In
their anxiety to see them. Taft tried
to protect his wife from the onslaught
and was hustled around the station by
the pushing throng
Finally the police got him and his
wife behind the station and later seat
ed them In front OF pile OF baggage.
which seats others were wildly
struggling TO take. They sat there for
10 minutes and then crowded their
way to the New Haven train.

ATTEMPT MADE TO
WRECK PASSENGER

An attempt was made to wreck
Michigan Central passenger train No.
500, at Greetings crossing, mile and
q half south OF Monroe, by a railway
tie being placed on the track. The
spot is a lonely one, near sharp
curve and down grade. The engineer
saw the obstruction, but not in time
to stop. SO he increased his speed.
hoping to knock the tie from the rails.
The engineer says the engine
seemed to leap from the rails
almost a foot, but landed back on
the rails, with the tie fixed between
the wheels in such way that 1t acted
as brake. The train was brought
quickly TO q standstill.
Many Detroiters were on the train.
That serious wreck did not result
seems almost miraculous. The only
placed the tie on the track hoped TO
rob the dead and injured if their plans
carried out.
When the passengers learned OF the
marrow escape they were badly fright
ened, and several tainted.
h Special Officer Burch and Ofhcer
lHerman, who happened to be on the
train, searched in the vicinity for the
'Guspected train wreckers but no trace

ATTEMPT TO SMUGGLE
RAGS is FRUSTRATED

When smuggling is mentioned. one
Is prone TO think OF valuable things
such as diamonds. laces and spirits
as being the most profitable things to
get past the customs wall.
Nevertheless. the largest and most
important smuggling venture that has
come to the attention OF the local Gus
toms officials was in none Of these,
but big shipment Of rags.
Rags are dutiable goods. but paper
stock Is not and some rags are used
for paper. Recently big shipment
of rags, billed as paper stock, was
sent through the local customs. The
inspectors and treasury agents inves-
tigated and discovered that the rags
were of pure wool and intended for
the manufacture Of shoddy clothing.
Thereupon> they followed up the
shipment and collected the neat little
sum OF $4,000 for Uncle Sans money

ENGLISH Women as Physicians.

The Englishwoman is making great
Roadway in the medical profession.
The College of Physicians already ad-
mits her to all its examinations. The
Royal College of Surgeons has just Ia
ken up the question. At recent poll
of the fellows and members major
ity Of the fellows were in favor Of ad
hitting women, but the majority Of
the members were opposed. The Lon
don Hospital, cOmmentig on the re-
suit of this poll, declares that the OPP
position of the members depends on
their ignorance of the excellence OF
woman practitioners and on fear OF
their competition. These two objec-
tons cut each others threats. Skilled
man surgeons are not troubled by the
competition of unskilled woman sur
geons. On the other hand, there is no
tenable ground for barring the skilled
woman from any of the honOrs or priv
ileges of the profession. Antique
prejudice cannot long hold out against
the assault of the expert, no matter
how unwise she may have been In
her choice of SEX 1t is better to give
cordially what she demands than to
wait till she takes what she deserves
and makes the withholder ridiculous.
