A Philadelphia physician has sued a
rich patient for $4,000 for medical
treatment. The doctor made So visits
therefore he charged more than $500
zach visit. which he says Is not I'M
reasonable as the patient is million
aire. This seems to be on the prin-
ciple of fixing the rate at what the
traffic will bear.

Candidate Taft
and the Farmers.

MI. AT mas DScu lfyiHS ueIu
to get the farmer vote of the West,
but if his efforts are no more salts
factory to his party generally than
they are to the New York Post, he
ment no Roadway worth noting, but
is undermining his natural support
in other quarters For his own good
1t is better to hold fast to that which
he already has than to lose it or a
considerable part of it in fruitless
effort to get something elsewhere.
The Post, supporter of Mr.. Taft,
bluntly expresses its disapproval of
the speeches he is making, as if it
considers the bait ne is using fit only
is catching but few of them. Here
is what it thinks of the value of his
arguments:
IF We may judge from letters
which come to US and from comment
which everyone hears, something
like 1000 of 5000 hesitating voters
must be turned from Mr.. Taft every
time he expounds anew his peculiar
doctrine about the Wilson tariff and
the panic of 1888, We do not recall
any selection of an issue by can
didate in any previous campaign SO
thoroughly calculated to do mini
mum of good and a maximum of
harm to his political fortunes 1t
even surpasses General Halcock's in
nocent description of the tariff as
a local issue The South Dakota
audience to whom Mr.. Taft de-
scribed the Wilson bill on Tuesday
as that great tariff measure under
the influence of which wheat went
down below so cents may possibly
have included two or three farmers
so densely ignorant as to suppose
that the two things had some rela-
ton to one another. But the South
Dakota speech was duly Geographic
and printed elsewhere, and We can
assure Mr.. Taft that for every mud
dle-headed farmer, who might have
been decided a hundred Intelligent
readers of his words among mis- ma
tural supporters in other localities
were stirred to indignation at them.
That he will actually gain any votes
by such an argument is doubtful in
the extreme; that ne will lose votes
by it is certain. and his persistent
repetition of it passes our under
standing"
There is much in the foregoing be-
sides an admission of the falacy of
the argument being used by Mr.
Taft. 1t is an open admission, and
reminder to the candisate that
the farmers, among whom may &C.
casionally be found some middle
heads" are not his natural support
ers, but that his natural support il
to be found among an intelligent
class in other localities than In the
wheat and corn and cotton fields. His
natural supporters are among those
who contribute by the twenties and
ffties and the hundreds Of thousands
of dollars to the campaign fund #
the republican party. 1t does not pay
to disgust these and lesser lights Of
this class in an effort to gain votes
naturally democratic with arguments
the fallacy OF which even those ap-
pealed to are, with few eceptions,
Intelligent enough TO recognize.

In your Issue of June 18th MIR. W. T.
Vaughn asks for, Information, etc.
why the inspectors Of election did not
allow him to take a paper into the
booth to mark his ballot by. He adj
mits that he had such paper in his
hand. / think that he can be best
answered by quoting Section 55, Laws
of Florida, as follows:
ANY elector who shall, except as
herein provided, allow his ballot to
be seen by any person, or who shall
take or remove, or attempt to take or
remove, any ballot from the polling

into the election booth any mcchani.

to mark said ballot or ticket, or any
person who shall interfere with any
elector when inside of the polling
place, or when marking his ballot, or
unduly influence, or attempt to unduly
influence any elector in the prepare
ton of his ballot, or any elector who
shall remain longer than the specified
time allowed by this act in the booth
or compartment, after being notified
that his time has expired. or who
shall endeavor to induce any elector
to show how he marks, or has mark
ed, his ballot, or aids, or attempts to
aid, any eleetor by any means OF any
mechanical device, whatever in mark
ing his ballot, or shall print or pro

Waterways Convention.
Good interest is being manifested
throughout the entire southeastern
portion of the United States in the
coming invention to be held at Co.
lumbus. There is no question but that
it will be q most representative gath
ering, and one whose members will
be thoroughly in earnest as regards
the Improvement of the waterways OF
the country they represent.
1t is recognized that transportation
by water is the only remedy to re-
lieve the congested condition of rail-

from Eureka getting better acquainted
with the voters here. Mr.. Pomeroy is a
most pleasant gentleman to meet, is well

the northern part of the county should
particularly favor him, and undoubtedly
will do so, as he would take good care OF
their int erests.
