AND SUCCESS
SPEAK

We reproduce elsewhere an account
of a visit made by Mr. Z. c. Chambliss
to the experiment station, which is a
part of the University of Florida. Mr..
Chambliss is an intelligent, practical
business man. When the writer first
knew him he was a country merchant.
He is now. and has been for several
years, at the head of Ocala's largest
banking institution. As a side line
he is a farmer and a breeder of fine
stock, but he is no les practical and
intelligent in these lines than in 9TH
er business affairs, and is making
money out OF his farming operations.
AS an all-round business man who
has made a brilliant success of what
ever he has undertaken his opinion
regarding the experiment station and
university is worthy of attention, and
it is noteworthy that he thinks these
institutions we'll worth the money
that is being spent upon them-an
opinion differing very considerably
from the opinion of some OF the
states embryo statesmen, who have
succeeded little and thought less, but
who nevertheless essay leadership in
public matters that call for the pro
foundest consideration of men who
think and act and accomplish. So
far as the Telegraph is concerned we
prefer to follow the teachings and ex-
ample of the Chamblisses of Florida.
He belongs to the type of citizens
who are making for the development
of our resources and the permanent
betterment and elevation OF our citi-
zenship He is a large tax payer and
therefore a large contributor to the
states institutions that are maintain
ed by taxation, but instead of espOus-
ing the selfish and parsimOniOus view
Of the croaker, he sees the improve
ment that money judiciously spent on
such institutions will bring to the
state, and not only pays his quota of
taxes ungrudgingly, but throws in a
word of approval and encouragement.
Such men are safe leaders. No town
or county or state was ever uplifted
or developed by croakers, and no vital
public interest was ever promoted by
the class of men in public life who
see no further ahead than the end of
their noses.-Starke Telegraph.

GOD AND NATURE

Drummond says that the design of
nature seems to be to make mothers.
I wish he had been accurate and said
God instead of nature. Nature is sim
ply Gods habit of doing things. 1t
is a rule of conduct and not a crea-
tor.-Florida Christian Advocate.
Perhaps if Mr.. Drummond had been
accurate in his statement there would
have been a war made on him for say
ing that God worked on the seventh
day" What the Advocate describes
as "a rule of conduct shows nature
always in a state of activity. Nature
never ceases from her labors. There
is no rest in nature. Day in and day
out the sun makes his circuit of the
heavens. There is no day of rest for
the orb of day. The rivers run from
the mountains to the sea. Seeds
terminate and the tiny tree and plant
unfold themselves into strength and
beauty. The ocean waves toss them
selves in restless fury and break up
on the shore. The rains descend, the
winds blow and the dew drop gives
it's myriad tints in the morning sun.
The squirrel leaps from bough to
bOugh and the birds carroll their sweet
songs the seventh the same as the
first day of the week. So Mr.. Drum
mOnd in employing the words, The
design of nature" was no doubt avoid
ing controversy. All through the ages
nature must move on in her restless
course. Were she to rest for a day or
for an hour wreck and ruin would
result.

THE EDITORS PRAYER

The following is going the rounds
of the press without credit:
81 would fee from the city's rule
and law-from its fashions and forms
cut loose-and grow where the straw
berry grows on its straw. and the
gooseberry grows on its goose; where
the catnip tree is climbed by the cat
as she clutches for her prey, the guile
less and unsuspecting rat, on the rat
tan bush at play; | will watch al
ease the saffron COW and the cOwlet
in their glee. as they peal in joy from
bough to bough on the top of a COW
sin tree: and last while the partridge
drums his drum. and the wOod-chuck
chucks his wood, and the dog devOurs
his dOgwoOd plum in the primitive sol
itude. o, let me drink from the moss
grown pump that was hewn from a
pumpkin tree; eat mush and milk
from a rural stump. from form and
fashion free-new garnered mush
from the mushroom vine. and milk
from the milkweed sweet-with lus-
cious pineapples from the wine; such
food as the gods might eat! And then
to the whitewashed dairy I'll turn,
where the dairymaid Fastening HES,
her ruddy and gOld-red butter to
churn from the milk of butterflies;
and I'll rise at morn with the earliest
bird. to the fragrant farm-yard pass,
and watch while the farmer turns his
herd of grasshoppers out to grass"

FLAeLER's GRAPEFRUIT GROVE

A few miles south of COcOanut
Grove, at Kendall, Henry NJ. Flagler
has a large orange and grapefruit
grove which is worth going miles to
See, and all who have visited it say
that it is one of the best in the coun-
try, considering the time it has been
set out. A few days ago a force of
twenty men was sent down by DR..
E. V. Blackman to work on the grove
and it is expected that a great many
more trees will be set out this fall.
While the grove is not intended to en-
ter into competition with the rest of
the groves of the county, Mr.. Flagler
is said to be anxious to develop it in
the best possible manner just to show
what can be done in this end of the
county. Naturally the success of this
grove will prove a benefit to the rest
of the county, and will be the means
of proving to the home-seekers who
are expected to arrive here in the near
future the excellent opportunities for
fruit culture at a profit in Dade cOun-
ty.-Miami News-Record

Tom Watson may have his idiocin-
cracies along many lines, but accord
ing to our understanding his ideas of
money and it's function does not APP
pear to be one of them. Some people
seem to think, as he says, that money
comes to us ready-made. That ma
ture provides it. 1t is true that ma
ture provides the raw material, but
the creation of money is, or should
be, the function of government. And
whenever it is created of any mater
ial that has a large intrinsic value in
itself it invests the owners of the raw
material with a privilege that puts
them in a class by themselves and
does something outside the motto:
Equal rights to all; special privileges
to none" For instance, under our
system of the free coinage of gold, if
it were possible for an individual to
discover a mountain of gold he could
control the financial policy of the
whole world. 1t is not likely that any
individual will be so fortunate or un-
fortunate to do this as the case may
be. But under this system the prin-
ciple is here just the same. If mon
ey were coined or manufactured from
a material that in itself has no intrin-
sic value it would not invest the in
dividual with this extraordinary priv
elege over his less fortunate fellows.
The stamp of the government gives
value to money, and the tax paying
power of the government makes it
more or less sound. That at least is
the way it presents itself to us. So
we cannot see why the government
should pay interest on money when
it has the power to create it and with
the still further power to assess and
collect taxes, and thus give to it sta
bility and strength.

White county, Ark, has what is
probably the most unique newspaper
published in Arkansas, or in most any
other state, for that matter. Its Of
fee of publication is in a farmhouse
about twelve miles from Searcy, and
its editor and publisher is a farmer.
There is no town of any sort. not even
a pOstofice, at the place where this
paper is published. The publication
is entered in the mail at Bald Knob,
which is about ten miles from the Of
fee of publication.

Last Thursday the work was start
ed on county road from West Palm
Beach to Jupiter, which is the first
part of the much talked of Homestead
to Stuart road. The work is to be
carried on as rapidly as possible, and
as there is but little grading or filling
to be done the main part OF the road
between West Palm Beach and Jupi-
ter will be completed in few months.
Needless to say all the citizens Of the
north end of the county are rejoicing
over the commencement of the work
and they feel sure that the new road
will be a great help to that section Of
the county. Later on a road building
gang will be put to work AT Stuart TO
start operations on that end of the
long highway. Rock is being sent out
very rapidly, and there will be no de-
lay in keeping a supply of material
on hand.-Miami News-RecOrd.

Fie on Editor Harris of the Ocala
Banner for intimating that the apple
fed dumplings of North Carolina get
their compilations at the drug stores!
Can it be that the Nestor has found
his second eye-sight, that he can thus
penetrate the mystery of wOman's
charms? AS for us. we take all things
of and appertaining to women with
a faith simple and sublime. When
we See pretty, peachy cheeks we know
that their cOlOring is the handiwOrk
of nature-the glow of health, the
mingling of wonderful atmospheric
pigments with OzOnic secrets, cum
ningly compounded by natures al
chemy, for masculine undoing. When
We see two or three shades of hair
on one head, we know this to be but
the outcrOppings of that infinite va
riety which age cannot wither nor
custom stale" When we see this
same hair done up in countless crimps
and cOrrugatiOns, We awedly exclaim,
How wonderful are thy works, o,
Nature!" for we know that hair grew
that way. Our faith in womanhood is
blind, unreasOning and unquestiOning
and we're going to hold on to it as
long as We live.-Lakeland News.

Mr. Yancey Carter, the nominee Of
the independence party for governor
of Georgia, seems to be a weak disci-
pie. In his appeal to the dear people
of Georgia he says that zone of the
most deplOrabIe things with which we
have to contend in our political life is
a disposition on the part OF the peO-
pie to misapprehend the situation. -
1t is the old case of the eleven Obsti-
nate jurors. Mr.. Carter goes on to
say: THE people absolutely refuse
to see things as they are" That is,
they cannot see why Mr.. Yancey Car
ter should not be elected governor of
Georgia rather than the democratic
nominee. Tom Watson thinks the
same thing. Cannot see why the peO-
ule should not vote for him for pres
ident above every other nominee. The
independence league candidate says
it in very shame and sorrow that
Georgia, his beloved state, will new
er attain the position she should Oc-
cupy in the sisterhOod of states until
a majority of the good citizens shall
have a higher conception of their du-
ties to the state"-until they elect
Yancey Carter governor. Isn't the
reading of this sort of trash humiliat-
ing?
