DOWN WITH INDEPENDENTTSM.

II is time for the state democratic ex
ecutive committee and the democrat
PRESS of the state to bestir themselves il
the interest of the democratic party. Ii
three counties, namely, Hamilton, Mon
roe and Palm Beach, the party nominees
for the legislature have opposition
. From whence this independent move,
ment springs there is at hand no definite
information, but no matter what is It's
source it should be squelched. There
are indications that the conflict of opin.
ion abort the proposed prohibition
amendment to the constitution is at the
bottom Of this wave of independedtism;
and the Telegraph begs here aud now to
caution members of the party on both
sides of the amendment proposition that
there will be need for an organized, and
vigorous white mans party in Florida
after the present contention has been
settled one way or the other and forgot
ton. We cannot be assured of this if
we allow any question whatever to car
~ us to the point of giving aid and COM
fort to those who would place themselves
up in opposition to the nominees Of the
party or suffer ourselves to even condone
such opposition.
So far as the influence of the Tele.
graph reaches it shall be exerted for the
democratic nominees, no matter what
the occasion of the independent move
mert against them. If the whiskey peo-
pie encourage independent candidates
into the field we are against them and if
over-zealous and radical prohibitionists,
if there be such, inspire their csndi-
dacy we are still against them, and
for the party nominees.
We think the prohibition amendment
is a matter that can be settled without
disrupting the party organization that
redeemed Us from the hideOus scenes of
reconstruction and that has given rs, for
the most part, at least, a clean and eco
nomical and progressive administration
of our state government.
Down with independentism. Let the
good old party Of our dsddies live on in
the glory of its strength and integrity to
shelter Us from the evils that might fol-
low in the wake of divided house.
As q means of rendering the prohibit
sSien amendment unpopular the Jasper
News is waging warfare on the Anti
Saloon League. 1t refers to the officers
Of the Lesgne, now resident of Florida,
las interlopers sent here for no good pur-
, pose, but rather to gain control of the
politics Of the state. Developments up
to date seem to indicate that this is a
fflgment of the Jasper editors fevered
imagination. The League people appear
to be devoting themselves wholly to the
work IN hand-the organizing and en-
thusing OF the prohibition forces ofNthe
state-but suppose they should take a
.han6,in politics. The Jasper editor him
self says that they have enrolled in their
organization the best people Of the state.

the Congress Just ended had done more

ton enacted. the Speaker said:
This work of legislation has gone
on quietly but effectively. while those
who view Congress from a distance
have been assuming that the House
was doing nothing but changing its
rules. The changes of rules have con-

the power of some individuals in the

itself has moved on as usual, with little
disturbance on account of a few new
methods and with little advantage
therefrom.
