route then passes over the Florida
East Coast railway to knights Key

This new routefis Of interest to the
travellers, for the reason that the

night in June a horse owned by Mr..
Henhessey and being driven in the
bus team, was suddenly killed by
hanging electric and uninsulated wire.
1t was proven that the Hoag electric
power company operated this line and
the city agreed with E. w. Hoag for
an equal division Of the claim. This
matter was adjusted and an order
made to pay the amount.
The Joseph Hutchinson claim Of
$500 was not allowed. This matter
was thoroughly discussed. and sever

We welcome the belated promise of
tariff reform now offered by the Re-
publican party in tardy recognition
of the righteousness of the Democrat
ic position on this question; but the
people can not safely entrust the ex-
3ecution Of this important work to a
party which is SO deeply obligated to
the highly protected interests as is
the Republican party. We call at
Itention to the significant fact that
the promised relief was postponed
until after the coming election-an
election to succeed in which the
Republican party must have the same
support from the beneficiaries of the
high protective tariff as it has al
ways heretofore received from them;
and to the further fact that during
years Of uninterrupted power, no ac-
ton whatever has been taken by the
Republican Congress o correct the
admittedly existing tariff iniqutties.
We favor immediate revision OF
the tariff by the reduction of I'M
port duties. Articles entering into
competition with trust-controlled pro-
ducts should be placed upon the free
list and material reductions should
be. made in the tariff upon the ne
cessities Of life, especially upon ar
ticles competing with such American
manufactures as are sold abroad moia
cheaply than at home; and graduate
reductions should be made In such
other schedules as may be neces-
sary to restore the tariff to a rev.
enue basis.
Existing duties have given the
manufacturers of paper a shelter be-
hind which they have organized COM
binations to raise the price OF pulp
and paper, thus imposing q tax upon
the spread of knowledge.
We demand the immediate repeal
of the tariff on wood pulp, print pa
per, lumber, timber and logs, and that
these articles be placed upon the free

country say that Mr.. Bryan's election
is not unlikely, and no man, much
less a candidate for congress, should
say any thing which would tend to
alarm the timid or destroy confidence
III the happening of that event. Such
talk will not help the unemployed
workmen of our big cities to get jobs
IL will not accelerate industry; 1t will
not promote the public veal.
And, to say the least, you were
entirely mistaken Mr.. Pickett when
you told your Manchester audience
that the democrats in their Denver
platform, declared for tariff for
revenue only" There is no such Lam
guage in the Denver platform, nor
does the language of the Denver plat
form mean any such thing. The dem
ocrats stand for revenue tariff, SO
levied as to best promote the inter-
ests of all the people OF this country,
and not favored few. For the ben
eft of any one, who mayfdesire to.
examine the democratic tariff plank,
we publish # in ~ entirety on this
page.
And, Mr.. Pickett, your criticism of
Mr.. Bryan, for not continuing to adj
yocate the free coinage of silver, is
not well taken. In 1896 Mr.. Bryan
and Mr.. Mckinley occupied positions
similar to rival architects, who
were submitting plans for the con-
struction of a large and costly build
ling. In the case OF the architects,
each would try to convince those
who were having the building con
structed to adopt his plan, and the
two presidential candidates did much
the same thing in 1896 when they
went before the country with differ
ent plans for the construction of I,
financial system. Only one plal
could be used for the. great building
and when that plan was selected an,
the building completed, the defeate
architect would be little better tina
: an idiot, If he went around advocatir
the destruction of the costly building
! lected according to the plans Of hi
successful rival, and the constru'
ton of another to take its place ths
|: would conform with his ideas. An
Mr.. Bryan would be no better tina
: the defeated architect, if he contil
a ued to advocate free silver. And
q saying this we do not admit tn;
2; free silver was wrong. Had Mr. Br,
ans plan been followed, the panic {
e last year might have been averte'
and clearing house certificates an
d credit money might never have ha
/ place in the history of this countr,
e But, Mr.. Pickett. we can not fo
d .ow you further at this time. Ye
g are probably doing the best you ca
with poor case, and are more e
9 titled to coincidence than censure 4
