To the successful operation Of the
Florida Citrus Exchange, which is be-
ing rapidly organized all over the Or
ange growing section Of the state, moth
ing is of greater Importance than that
the members of the various sub-ex-
changes and associations should be kept
in close touch with each other and with
headquarters, and thoroughly informed
on every subject of interest to the or
ganlzauOn. In no better way can this
be done than by subscribing for the
official organ of the Exchange. The
Florida Fruit and Produce News. In
point of fact it is the duty Of every
member of that Exchange, to himself
as well as to the organization, to sup
port its official organ which as its
mouth piece is part and parcel Of the
exchange itself. We don't think the
matter needs further argument.
Subscriptions for the News will be
received at the Office of the Demo
crat and promptly forwarded. The
price is one dollar per year.

The body of Olaf Olsen Norwegian of about 50 years of age, was found Tuesday morning on the beach about mile above the Price farm at Juneau. C.. Fitzgerald who was rowing along the shore saw a red discooration in the water and upon examination it proved to be blood flowing from the dead mans ear. Fitzgerald immedi- ately notified the authorities. The body was lying on the beach where it was found and blood was flowing free ly from both ears. Several holes were also discovered in the head, but are supposed to have been caused by strik- ing the rocks. Olsen left the city yesterday afternoon for Tee Harbor where he intended to begin trawling for salmon.
 An overturned boat was found early this morning near the point where the body was discovered and it is pre- sumed that the drowned man was capsized. The body was dressed in good clothing and heavy hip boots. Corner Folsom and jury arrived at the scene at l 30 and had the body taken to Juneau.

The wits of the taX-dodgers in some of the states are overtaxed these days by simple device hit upon hy the boards of tax commis missioners. It is so simple that we can only wonder that any body ever thought of any other method. The method is to make all assessments, in the case of real pro- perty, directly against the land itself, with no at empt to create personal liability against the owner or occu- pant by carrying his name on the roll. Parcels of property are numbered and are unidentified only by their numbers. Tn this wise, it avails Mir. Dodger mo- thing to conceal his place of residence, or to transfer his property back and fourth between himself and an oblig- ing friend. The community does not have to set title abstract men and de- tectives on his trail every time he plays will o'the wisp; for man is known only by the property he keeps, and the property is not known by the man. Supplement this method with the law which gives tax liens prece- dance over first mortgages, and vir- tue will be really cheaper than eva sion, for all concerned. -Fairban ks Times.

GOMPERS CASE

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-An appiica-
ton for writ OF haveas corpus In the
Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison con-
tempt cases in which the labor leaders.
now stand sentenced to terms in jail will
be made Monday morning in the Supreme
Court Of the District of Columbia. This
will act as a stay In the execution OF the
mandate which would otherwise issue
from the District Court OF Appeals and
operate TO conhne the labor leaders on
that day
Because there is some doubt as to
whether an appeal to the Supreme Court
Of the United States. can be made IN the
case at bar, the attorneys have decided
upon the habeas corpus proceedings.
The case will then by regular stages
TO the highest tribunal in the land where
# is hoped to get'a decision as TO wheth-
er the original injunction In the Bucks
Stove & Range Company was an inva-
sion OF the constitutional rights OF free
speech and free press.
There is little doubt that the Supreme
Court of the District OF Columbia and
the District Court OF Appeals will de-
eide aSainst Gompers in the habeas cor
pus proceedings as the issues are the
same as those recognized IN the contempt
case proper. But an appeal TO the SUI
preme Court OF the United States from
the decision Of lower courts in habeas
( corpus proceedings may always b
made.
