Did Catholics Elect Him9

From the Punta Gorda Herald.
Several Florida newspapers, in
Guiding the Barlow Record, DeFuni-
ak Breeze and Jasper News, assert
that Mr.. Taft owes his election to
the support given him by members
of the Roman Catholic church, and
they sustain the assertion with some
apparently good reasons. Their ar
gument is that the Pope and other
dignitaries of the church, feeling
grateful for the fair and very liberal
settlement made by Messrs. Roose-
welt and Taft for the church property
in the Philippines, gave their men,
bers in this country to understand
that they should show their appreci-
alton by voting for Mr.. Taft.
Accordingly, to the establishment
of the whole country, New York City,
heretofore a Democratic Gibraltar,
gave Mr.. Taft majority, as did also
Baltimore, Cincinnati and other large
cities in which the Roman Catholic
element predominates.
Admitting all this to be true, it is
not to the discredit of Mr.. Taft nOl
of those RomaniStS who voted fOl
him. We happen to remember that
these same church people contribu
ted as much, and thar righteously. t.
the election of Mr.. Cleveland be
cause DR.. Burchard, who supported
Mr.. Blaine, classed them with run
and rebellion. If their resentment
in the one case was commenable
their gratitude in the other is equal!

All the proposed constitutional
amendments were defeated at the re-
cent election. 1t has been sometime
since constitutional amendmenthas
been adopted by the voters of this
state. The people are tired of the
heavy taxation brought upon them
by the passage of so many laws dur
ing the past two administrations. If
all the laws of the last legislature,
and about half the acts of the pre-
eeding one, were repealed the state
and the people of the state would be
decidedly better off. The state tax
is now z mills, the highest since re-
construction. Eghtor ten years ago
the state tax was three mills. Ithas
increased over 100 per cent since
then.

General conditions in the orange
trade have slumped badly within the
past week or so, due to the indiscrim-
mate shipments of all sorts Of fruit
without system or method. Prices
at the markets of consumption have
broken so to rs cents per crate.
Much of the fruit on the market is of
poor quality, while an abundance of
excellent quality is still on the trees
ungathered. This unfortunate con-
dition is brought about by lack Of
organization and system, and it is
very damaging to Florida.

Costly Revenge.
the Cleveland Plain Dealer,

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
According TO the old story, it was
the lack OF nail that caused the
loss OF battle and the fall Of a king
dom. The displacement Of q pin In
an engineering survey will cost the
German state OF Baden nearly
100000 and much time and an
noyance. The state has been con-
structing a tunnel through the Black
Forest mountains, progressing to.
ward the center from opposite ends
These tunnels were to join at the VII
lage OF Forback, and the engineers
had no fear that their calculations
would be found amiss when the crit
zeal m oment that brought the union
arrived.
What was the horror OF the Black
Forest eningeers when they found
that the two bores had missed each
other by twenty.six feetl An investi
CATION was made and then IL was
found that the Intentional misplac.
ing of a surveying pin had caused the
costly error. Furthermore, the In
vestigators seem assured that the
author of the act was h labofer who
had been discharged during the pro
cess OF the work, and whose desire
for revenge had been grstifed In thit

More in ignorance Than Gun.
ming.

Ia connection with the matter 1t Is
pertinent to quote what The New
York Sun, q newspaper with Taft
inclinations and one certainly not
favorable to Bryan, said about this
feature OF the Roosevelt letter. Says
The Sun:
We would prefer In charity to
assume that Mr.. r )osevelt In this
attack upon Mr.. Olney wrote
more In ignorance than In cum
ming, but to do 80 is to imputeto
Mr.. Roosevelt a shortness OF
memory which stsggers credulity.
Mr.. Roosevelt has time and again
In his official and nonofficislcom.
munications claimed credit for
himself and party In having in
troduced this amendment which
made shippers liable to indict-
ment for accepting rebates. Tn.
less his memory has suffered a
total paralysis he must have
known when he wrote his reply
to Mr.. Bryan that the law for
whose existence he has loudly
claimed credit was not passed
until after the last Democratic
administration had ended. The
fact is that In this, as In most OF
his controversies, Mr.. Roosevelt
has shown a shameless disregard
OF truth and fair reasoning. Mr..
Bryan who with all his economic
vsgaries, has shown himself In
this controversy to be q gentle
man and to have some distant
respect for truth, will soon find
that 1t is impossible to continue
a dispute with an antagonist
who resorts for bis facts to his
, Imagination and whose insistent
/. advocacy OF the square deal" Is
a monumental hypocrisy OF
3 American history.

1t is said that History repeats Il

records the fact that In the year

Who Was not wanted by the party.
The result WAS the election OF Grover
Cleveland by over 10000. This

There are many reasons why MIR.
Bryan will be elected this year. The
bsst and most potent one is that the

his integrity OF purpose, his nobility
Of character and his purity OF lie
These are winning traits.
