Aldrch, the Republican boss of the
tariff bill now under consideration.
Make your kilograms strong and send
them TODAY - tomorrow may be too
late.
After the tariff question is settled
the pineapple growers should organize
and take up the question of reduction
in freight rates. Let committee be
appointed and furnished with every
fact and statistic necessary, and let
them present same to the officials OF
the Florida East coast railway - with
out malice--and urge reduction, and
if they are unsuccessful, again take
the matter before the Interstate Com
merce Commission. The destruction
of the pineapple industry in Dade and
st. Lucie counties will cause a loss of
$3.50, 900 annually to the Florida East
Coast railway, in incoming and outgo-
ing freight, which they can no more af-
ford than the growers can afford to
continue under present conditions.
Much good can be accomplished by
organization and conservative, intelli-
gent action, and THE TRIBUNE will be
found on the side of the growers in
every movement conducted along these
lines.

Strange Disease Among Horses

An epidemic, diagnosed as spinal
menengitis, has recently broken out
among the horses in this section and
already number of animals have de-.
veloped the disease, death resulting in
several cases. The State Agricultural
Department was notified by wire of the
conditions here and Wednesday a tele-
gram was received by j. G.. Coats from
B. E. McLin, suggesting that the mat
ter be brought to the attention of State
Health Officer J. Y. Porter of Jackson
vile. This was done and it is expected
that the state authorities will make a
thorough examination for the purpose
of finding means to put an end to the
spread of the malady.
The disease made its appearance in
this county about two weeks ago and
among the first horses to die from it
was j. A. Franklin's valuable carriage
horse. Charles Chase of Fort Pierce,
also suffered the loss of horse by the
disease. j. G. Coats e. Co. have been
the largest loOsers. two horses and a
mule having died in the past few
days, while another horse is suffering
with the disorder and not expected to
survive. The loss of the mule was not
directly due to the epidemic, collie being
the supposed cause of death. j. T.
Waters, Of Walton, has lost one horse,
while three or four cases nave resulted
fatally in White City, among them be-
ing fine animal the property of Chas.
Bemenderfer. G. w. Drawdy, of this
city lost one of his horses, also James
Jenkins, colored lost one. G. E. Dut-
ton and Mr.. Rogers, of this city have
each horse suffering with menengitis.
