The Quincy Times, with this
piper and tho map of Florida he

Georgians, who are not presumed
to know South Florida Spanish.

Notwithstanding the decision of
the judges to the contrary, Com
missioner Crouch insists that De-
Soto county had the largest, finest
and best exhibit of pineapples at
the State Fair and that this was
the opinion of all who saw the
display. 1t would be interesting
to have in detail the reasons that
movd the judges to award the
pineapple premium to st. Lucie
county. May we not ask the
Tampa papers to inquire of the
Judges and publish their reasons

paign. Mr.. LaFontisee is a splen-
did newspaper man, young, active,
energetic and enthusiastic, and his
services will prove highly valuable
to his candidate. His headquarters

are curious to know why The
HERALD man was not given this
work, we will explain that his
business prevented him from CIV
ing it the necessary attention.

Starke Telegraph: - OF the
newspapers that are outspoken on
the subject, a majority seem to be
supporting Hon. Albert w. Gill
christ for governor. In the cam
paign four years ago, Mr.. Stock
ton talked ugly about so per cent
of the papers. 1t can hardly be
expected, therefore, that more
than so per cent. of the total mum
Der in the state will care to assist
HIM in the achievement of his am
bition to be governor.

What Is an Organ2

allusion made by THE HERALD to
the News as u stockton organ"
The News says that, while its ed
itor is supporting Mr.. Stockton,
the News itself supports no man"
and is the organ Of no man.
We accept that statement and
beg to express regret that the ex-
preston used by this paper should
have given offence to a friend. 1t
all comes of the varying ihterpre-
lations placed upon the word "or-
gam AZ applied to u newspaper.
We have always thought that a
newspaper which actively advo-
Gates the claims of any man to
public Office is an organ Of that
man. 10 be such an organ, we do
not think it necessary that the
written or verbal authority of the
candidate be given or that the can
didate should have any proprietary
interest in the paper.
In this sense, THE HERALD is a
Gilchrist organ; that is, without
any request, authorization or de-
mand from him, it advocates him
for governor. Nor does he own
any interest in the paper Right
here we will repeat with emphasis
that The HERALD has no authori-
ty, verbal or written, to speak for
General Gilchrist, and he is In no
wise responsible for what it may
say.
And yet THE HERALD would
take no offence, if alluded to by
the DeLand News or any other
newspaper as a ''Gilchrist organ"
We trust this explanation will
mollify our friend of the News,
who ofcontent with simply OBJ
jecting to the terms applied to it
by this paper and giving reasons
for objecting, INDUCES in moral
lament to the effect that The HER
AID editor has greatly changed in
the past two or three years and,
from being a very amiable fellow,
has become cross and disagreeable
with a kind word for nobody. We
really believe he is not quite so
peevish and ill-natured as the News
paints him, although he is growing
old and symptoms of impotence
and fretfulness may appear with
age.
His "hot shot," to which the
News alludes, If examined care
fully, will be found to contain no
personal malice, even towards such
merciless opponents as Claude
L'Engle, who is utterly regardless
Of the sensibiities of all who do
not agree with him and directs his
criticisms against the individual
rather than the newspaper, the Of
fetal or the candidate. In this re-
spect, THE HERALD editor claims
that, with the exception of
a few cases Of brother editors in
which he has reciprocated person
alities, he has tried in his criti-
cisms to distinguish between indi.
viduals and newspapers, candidates
and officials.
For example: he has criticised
adversely the official acts Of the
members of the State Board of
Pardons and at the same time has
expressed the highest respect for
them as individuals. Indeed, he
is supporting several of them for
denomination, because, outside of
the abuse they make of the pardon
ing power, they have proved them
selves most excellent officials. Any
other set of men placed in their
position would do just as they do
in granting pardons, but that is no
reason why we should not try by

Old Seeds.

Seeds that have not felt the
nourishment-of mother earth for
"a years are growing in the yard
of City Jeiler Wade Brown, and
from a dozen seeds sowu there are
II small plants. The seeds were
secured in BATON Rouge, La, in
1884 by Captain Brown, and since
then have been kept IN a bottle.
Recently the beans were discover.
ed, and planted in the soil. In
the average time the plants pop
ped out of the earth despite their
sleep of "a years and promise TO
make as fine plants as new seed.

at is often said that there are
not the same opportunities to
make money and advance IN
life that there use TO be. In
some respects perhaps this is
true. Nevertheless in this great
country there is still an oppor-
tunity to get ahead in the world,
to lay up something for a rainy
day to own ones home, to raise a
fam Iy respectfully, to educate
them and to make a we'll defined
place in the community ir
which they live. The way to do
this is to begin right and live
right. This way always pays and
no other does.
"The top rounds of the ladder
in ethics, business, professional
or political life are empty. The
lower rounds are always full.
Tins the boys and gIrls should
strive TO get to the top, where
they will have plenty Of room"

CIVILIZATIONS TRIUMPH.

A few years ago Persia was con-
sldered a semi-civilized country, the
government being an absolute mon
archy. Last year the Shah granted
a constitution and parliament.
Recent events prove that the Per
sian people are making great strides
and the time is not far distant they
will be up to the standards of Amer
lean civilization as exemplihed in
Georgia and Mississippi.
The following is cable to the Chi
cago Record Hera1d
"Teheran, Jan. a6.-Advices receiv-
ed here today from Yezd, capital of
the Province Of Habrame, in central
Persia, announce a wholesale Jail de
livery and a lynching. 1t appears
that man named Renza was conhn-
ed IN the prison at the governor
residence, charged with numbering his
brother. Crowds Of citizens assem-
bled, and demanded that the prisoner
be handed over to them for punish
ment, and on the governor refusing
to do so his residence was stormed
by the mob, who released all the
prisoners found in the. jail except
Renza, who was lynched, the rioters
Kidding his body with bullets"

Ecce signum: III
1t appears that all this furniture,

by multiplying its length by its width,
and the result by its height thus: 4
