AM MY BROTHERS. KEEPER

This question was asked by Cain,
the first murderer. The command
ment which requires us to love our
Reighbors as ourselves in a measure
answers this question, and we are, to
a certain extent, our brothers keeper.
The good people of Ocala and Marion
county should realize this duty that
We owe to our fellow man at the COM
ing wet and dry election. have been
a visitor to your town for two months
past and have fallen in love with the
people. | do not think l ever saw a
more generous, Open-hearted folk
anywhere, even those who have es-
poused the cause of the saloons seem
honest in their convictions, but let
me tell you, brother, the voice Of the
brothers blood crieth to you from the
ground" and 'woe unto him who Civ
eth his neighbor drink and putteth the
bottle to him!"
Voters of Marion county. think for
one moment before you cast your bal
lot. Are you willing to become par
" to the crime, suffering and blood
shed, the suffering and sorrow Of the
women and children of Marion county
simply to satisfy your love for drink
or the easy way of making a dollar
from the sale of whiskey? This is
your only excuse. I dare say that not
one of the men now engaged in the
saloon business will say yes to the
question; yet it is a fact, and we have
Gods word to prove it. Every man
who casts his ballot in favor of the
saloon eliminates himself and be-
comes a party to the crime. For the
scripture on this point l refer you to
Rev c. c. Carroll, the eloquent pas
tor of the Baptist church of Ocala,
and l request him after an extended
notice in your paper, that he will
preach the same sermon to the people
of Ocala that he did on the Sunday
night before Christmas, and make a
direct application in the cause Of pro-
hibition.
May success crown the efforts of
the good people of Ocala in their eff
fort to get rid of the great curse, and
on my return to your little city 1 hope
to see the saloon signs all gone and
their places filled with the young bus
mess men Of your county who are
ready and anxious to push forward,
build up, and continue the prosperity
of Ocala. T. J. BLALOCK.

EDITORS TO BANQUET

Saturday evening, February s, will
be a memorable occasion in the lives
of the Florida newspaper editors, for
at that time will occur the banquet
given annually in their honor by the
directors of the Florida State Fair,
which will be held in Tampa from
February 9th to 22nd. Heretofore this
banquet has been held on Wednesday,
the opening day of the fair. By rea-
son of the fact that the day is not a
convenient one for the average editor
of a weekly paper, the next banquet
will be held on Saturday evening
after every form has gone to press. -
Heretofore the banquets have also
been held at the palatial Tampa Bay
Hotel. The next will be held, how
ever, at the famous Spanish restau.
rant, Grand Oriente, in Ybor City, the
Latin quarter of Tampa, and those at
tending will revel in Spanish dishes,
Spanish wines, and, last but by nc
means least. Spanish cigars of Tampa
makC-the finest cigars iii the world
Members of the state legislature
state officials, and other prominent
public men will be present, including
number from other states, and sew.
eral hundred will be seated around
the festal board Invitations will this
week be extended to every newspaper
editor and legislator in Florida, and
should any happen to be overlooked
they are requested to at once nstify
Secretary F. L. Huffaker, Tampa, of
the fact. Invitations will also be ex
tended to the candidates for various
state and national Offices, and the
banquet will develop into a most i'm
portant and instructive political event
A most interesting program of tOasts
will be arranged. The directors of
the fair and public Of Tampa general
ly hope every editor Of Florida will
visit the city on this day, and every
courtesy possible will be shown them.
Passes to every show on the fair
and amusement grounds will be
shortly distributed to the press.-St

Why the Appointment Was Made

The Tampa Tribune can see no
good reason why Governor Broward
should have bestowed the greatest
Office in the gift OF the people of Flor
ida upon young Mr.. Bryan down in
Jacksonville. The Tribune forgets
that the governor had a large politi.
cal debt to pay to Mr.. Bryan, and
when the opportunity arrived all 9th
er considerations were lost sight Of
and he paid it. 1t was a loyal act on
the part OF Governor Broward, and
speaks well for his fidelity as a
friend, but it may well be doubted il
he had a right to discharge the debt
at the expense Of so many others who
had claims at least equally as strong
as Mr.. Bryan upon the objective
Oak Democrat.

Knocking the Governors Pet Scheme

Knocking the Governors Pet Scheme
A writer in the Miami Metropolis
says:
cit is reported that people are fall
ing over themselves in their eagerness
60 buy the land along the canal, near
Lauderdale, which is said to have
been drained by the state. This looks
70 me like a bunco game pure and
simple. OF course, the lands are dry
now; in fact, am told they have to
build dams behind the dredges in or
der to dam up enough water to float
the dredges. I am told the dredges
have lowered the water along the ca
nal six feet. Perhaps so, and also per
haps it is nature, or a year which is
ending with between twenty or thirty
inches of shortage in the usual rain
fall. which has caused water in some
parts of the Everglades to fall six
feet. There are prairies down near
Cutler. where there was six feet of
water a year ago, which are now dry.
A dry year is as good as a hun
dred dredges at work on the 'Glades
for lowering the water. Wonder how
these land buyers will feel when they
look at their land along the canal af-
ter the rainmakers' strike is broken
1 would rather wait till next summer
before buying; by that time we will
have had a rainfall up to the usual
average or perhaps more; then it will
be seen how pUny are the attempts
thus far made to drain the 'Glades."
Perhaps this is one of the reasons
why the administration candidates
want an early primary. They want it
before the rainy season sets in.

CHARM MIAMI

IL you're weary Of a region
Where the binding billiards blow,
And are looking for a refuge
From. the chilling frosts and snow;
II you're tired of deadly cyclones,
Tired Of lightning's lurid glare,
Hurricanes and tornadoes,
Dealing death and dire despair.
II you seek a home where songbirds
Sing sweet carols all the day,
Where the climbing roses blossom
In December and in May
Seek a home where balmy breezes
Gently blow, and skies are clear,
Where the springtime verdure fades
not
All throughout the livelong year.
Where the silvery waves Of ocean
Gently kiss the golden sands,
And where kindly heaven dispenses
Choicest gifts with lavish hands;
Words must fail, and fancy falters,
Vain are efforts to convey
Thoughts that far transcend descrip
ton,
Scenes no language can portray.
Come to sunny Florida,
Come at oRce-make no delay.
Build your homes in Miami,
Gem Of Biscayne Bay.
When yours come you'll join with
Sheba's
Far-famed royal queen of old
And proclaim in words Of rapture
That the half has not been told.
