'syast as this may appear, yet it is
quite within reason when the whole
of the conditions and probabilities
from every standpoint are thoroughly
and intelligently considered.
1T is estimated that the commerce
of Great Britain alone with the Pa
cific ports, that will use the Nicaragua
canal. will be sufficient to repay the
entire cost of the construction of the
Florida ship canal within 20 years
after it's completion Lord Bacon
said: There be three things thar
make nation great and prosperous
fertile soil, busy workshops and
easy conveyance Of men and things
from place to place.
The foregoing statement, showing
the enormous increase in the assessed
value of property in the Southern
with better facilities, such as there
are in the proposed Florida ship ca
nal, would give a still greater pros
perity for the South, southwest and
west and northwest-in fact, the
whole country-must follow
The total increase of assessed prop
erty value for twenty years, 1870 TO
1890, being 81 ,135, O00, 600, it would give
for every seven weeks during that
time an average increase of SOL ,0O0,-
600 and this last amount is enough
to build the proposed Florida ship ca
nal or sufficient to construct this
canal seven times every year for the
whole twenty years. The New York
Herald of October 81, 1894, says:
Farmers will get better prices for
their products if the cost of transpor-
tation is reduced.
Economical Provisioning CoaIing.
The proposed Florida ship canal
undertaking includes many other en-
terprises that will contribute largely
to its revenue, amongst them being
the supplying of coal, provisions, etc,
to vessels while passing through the
canal, the principal depot being at
Orange Lake.
Orange Lake as Supply Station.
For instance, vessel arriving al
either end of the canal could teie
graph her orders for her supplies to
be ready on, her arrival at Orange
Lake, viz: Coal, meats, -four, vege
tables, water, etc
These would be placed on lighter
fitted UP with suitable lifting machin
cry, and upon her arrival at the Lake
the lighter could be attached to her
and the coaling and provisioning could
be carried on without stopping hel
during her passage of about 16 miles
| through Orange Lake and it's exten

resentative of President Roosevelt tc
the Columbus convention, Nov. $40,
1908, of the Mississippi to Atlantic
Inland Waterway Association, said,
You are going TO get the waterway"
Add to this encouraging statement
the fact that the great inland system
of waterways. proposed win be incom
plete in many essential particulars
without the link between the Missis-
sippi river and the Atlantic, thereby
connecting these great arteries of
traffic TO each other and every river
which flows to the gulf, the Atlantic
and the Great Lakes, allowing an in
.terchange of eastern manufactured
articles and western products, and
according TO the estimate of an emf
nent authority, Robert May Canfall,
made in 1896 and confirmed by Sem
ator-elect Duncan u. Fletcher, of Flor
ida, carrying 10 and from the gull
ports alone 80 million tons OF freight
annually. That this estimate is too
low for the present may he seen from
the fact that the Caffall estimate
was based on the production of 1880.
Speaking of the Florida ship canal
Mr. Caffall says:
"The question has been asked.
what and how much commerce will
use the canal?' As reply the fol
lowing general statistics are gifen,
also those of other waterways, ports.
etc.
Tonnage Through Florida Canal.
Estimating roughly, as to the guam
tity of freight that will pass through
the proposed Florida ship canal when
completed. it may be safely put as
follows:
Cereals, 5000, 900 tons; coal, iron
and other minerals, 1000, 900 tons;
lumber. cotton, sugar, etc, 1900, 0Uv
tons; total 15,000.000 tons annually,
one way from the United States
gulf ports alone.
But as nearly every sea-going YES
sci engaged in this commerce from
the gulf to the Atlantic would, neces-
sarily. have to pass through the canal
in both. directions, it, would double
the above registered tonnage to pass
through it, and would make $4,000, 900
tons for the year upon which a toll
could be charged and collected
Mr.. Caffall says further:
Upon the completion of the Mica
ragua canal the commerce of five con-
tinents will pass through the proposed
Florida ship canal, viz: between Eu-
rope and the western coast of North
America; the western coast OF South
America; Asia, China. Japan, ETC., and
Australia, and no other route or ca
nal will command and receive SO

A NOVEL SUGGESTION.
Brooksville Argus.
O >>>A>>>>>> A>S

The novel suggestion OF John S.
Beard would be a good one il it could
be put in practice. He advances the
proposition that all the states COM
prising the solid South" form com
pact not to enter any of the national
parties four years hence, but hold
aloof from all of them; have the Dem
ocratic state organizations nominate
by convention a full set OF electors
Instead let them be pledged to cast
their ballots in the electoral collage
for the candidates for president and
ice-president who will give the South
ern states their rightful share in the
government and policy OF the nation
These electors should have a confer
ence with the candidates after and
not before the November election.
AS that election elects electors to
vote for president and ,yice-president,
not those officers themselves, the 12o
electors elected from tn South, I'M

in determining the political policy of

ors to- certain party candidates before

the Southern democratic electors I'M
pledged. they could by their united
votes place in power the party repre-
sentatives who would pledge them
selves to do the most for the South
and human rights. t
Under present conditions the South

en- the party it supports. If the sug-
gestion of Mr. Beard were put In prac-
tice and be successful, the parties In
the north and west would fight their
battles with one another without op-
position or assistance from, the South
for either side. After the election
the electors of the two leading parties
would be divided and the South would
be in a position to elect the side that
would do most for its section, the
country at large and the Jenersontan
principles Of popular government.
Under such conditions the South

HOW 1T HAPPENED.
Brooksville Argus.

Our worthy contemporaries, tho
Tampa Tribune, Jacksonville Metrop-
oils, st. Augustine Record, inland Me-
tropolis, Pensacola Journal and other
papers are giving their solutions of
how 1t happened that the people re-
jected all the constitutional amend-
ments in the last election.
The Tribune charges IL to common
everyday ignorance, the Jacksonville
Metropolis to jealousy of the ruralistI
for the town, the Record, Miami Me-
tropolis and Pensacola Journal to OPP,
position to increase of taxation how
ever slight or however necessary. The
Times-Union says 1t was not. on ac-,
count of the peoples love and respect
for the old constitution.
We believe the people voted them
down because they are tired and dis
gusted with being called on every
election to mend an old instrument
which is entirely out of date and
which no amount OF repair will adapt.
to modern conditions. Plainly speak,
ing, the people want and iced a new
cons titution from beginning to end.
Havig made up their minds for a new
one they are not going to vote fos
anything else.
1t would be money and time saved
for the amendment makers to realizG
this now and cease tinkering with tha
old constitution and begin hustling for
a convention to frame a new one
We wish to impress most forcibly
upon the minds Of our legislature thai
no more amendments win be voted
for however meritorious in them
selves.
This is not our answer but that OF
the people.
| The people are as anxious for o
new constitution as they are opposed
to amending the old one.
