he attempted to show the great value of
flowers and their near relationship to
human beings. He concluded his
marks by saying: THE Lord that made
me made a daisy" Whereupon some one
in the audience called out: You bet he

professor discovered why every one

Issue For
Legislative Candidates.

1t has been frequently remarked that
while many OF the other states in the
Union were taking vigorous measures
to reduce the three-cent passenger
rate, Florida presented the strange
spectacle OF submitting without pro-
test to a 'four-cent rate on the leading
line through the western part Of the
state. No steps. of any kind are being
taken TO reduce this tariff, and public
sentiment has seemed TO be entirely
dorman on the question. Lower rates
is burning issue everywhere else but
here, ana il is hard to understand why
this should be SO. But there seems
to be a prospect that this matter will
get into politics at last, and it is well
that it should, for the people have
reserved rights in the premises and
they are at least entitled TO know why
they are still compelled to pay a rate
apparently so excessive. On this sub
ject, the DeFuniak Breeze says:
The Laurel Hill Home, which is the
organ of the Farmers Union. calls
upon candidates for the legislature to
declare themselves on the question Of
three-cent passenger fare. The
Breeze has suggested a good many
times that this would be an issue in
this campaign and that no man could
be elected to the legislature from West
Florida this year who did not stand
squarely ON this proposition. Other
states, notably North Carolina and
Georgia, have gone further than this
and made the rate two and half
cents and have succeeded in enforcing
it. Ia North Carolina a tWo-cent rate
bill was passed and on an agreement
with the railroads a special session Of
the legislature was called and made
the rate two and half cents. No
man wants, or expects, the railroads
to do business at a loss, and no man
who has kept up with the matter be
lieves that three-cent rate would re-
suit in loss, but on the contrary that
the experience elsewhere would be re-
peated here and passenger earnings be
increased instead of decreased by this
reduction in fares. This is one mat
ter on which the people are in thorough
accord

The billiards are raging all over
the North and West, and that region is
buried deep in snow and sheeted in
ice. 1t is nonsense TO talk about low
ing such a winter climate as that.
and the best proof that it is nonsense
Is the increasing number of people
from that section coming to Florida
every winter. They may not find here
all that they would like, but the ag-
gregate OF their objections would be
vastly more than counterbalanced by
the arctic discomforts they left be-
hind them. More and more is Flor
ida coming to be the chief winter re
sorts of northern people who have
means to make the trip, and they are
discovering that Pensacola has attrac-
lions equal to the best that the East
Coast can show.

TO a French marquis with a long title
and short purse, goes into her honey
moon with some sinister shadows
gathered about it. The Countess OF

the Duchess of Marlborough, all duped

sacrificed themselves for trumpery Old
World titles, could give Miss Shonts
some valuable pointers on the beauties
of the international marriage system.

nature, as well as of a sweet girl Of

One of the good things about the
candidacy of General Gilchrist is that
he has the newspaper instinct in him
and furnishes such beautiful type writ
ten copy for the press. 1t may not be
available for publication in every in
stance, but at least it shows him to
be an up-ro-date man, quick to utilize
modern facilities for the spread of in
teEigence. General Gibchrist and his
'tduS Achates." Editor Jordan, of the
Punta Gorda Herald, are two highly
interesting figures in the pending cam
paign, hardly spectacular, but always
attractive, and there is a charm in
the utter loyalty between them almost
unique in this hard, grasping age The
general and this eloquent organ are
making noble fight, and if they go
down in defeat, which now seems
probable, it viii be a spectacle to
paint moral and adorn a tale for
many long years to come in Florida
politics. And We ara saying this in
no fiippant or iTonical spirit, for there
is really something impressive, almost
ideal, in the relations of Brother Jor-
dan and his candidate rarely seen in
modern politics.
