The Taliaferro headquarters are send
ing out a leahet entitled, How Brow
ard Saved Our Lands" that is too
trifling to notice, except FORTS cunning
appeal to ignorance. 1t endeavors to
show that Browards settlement of the
l.. & N railroad claim, was a violation
of his pledge to the people. 1t shows
that the railroad got 45O, 600 acres OF
land, and $4,000. But it does not
show that the railroad held certificates
emitting it to l,720,00O acres, nor that
the $3.50, 900 cash was a part of the
money received by the State from the
sale of some of the land on which the
railroad held certificates. One court
had already given the railroad Judg-
ment for their claim. and by his settle
ment Broward saved for the people of
Florida a million acres of land and
5000, 600, besides the expense of lltiga-
ton, Broward Has kept every promise
he made to the people. His vote to
extend the time limit for the compile
ton of the two small railroads which
the leahet mentions, is just exactly
what every member of the Legislature
did. Broward is not a railroad hater.
He believes in encouraging the building
of railroads. He is opposed to the
railroad controlling our affairs, or to
having man controlled by the railroads
to represent the people in the United
States Senate. The ,leaAet is unsign-
ed, doubtless, because the author would
be ashamed to face anyone with such
tommy-rot.

and express rates every instrumentality
at COMMUNICATING tricks" is I'M
stionably justifable. If the carrier
takes his case into politics or introduces
politics into his business, the shipper is
sleeping on his rights and is at dis d.
vantage if he does not do likewise. The
rate question from the growers as well
as the consumers point of view is the
most important as well as the greatest
problem of an economic nature the peo-
pie of the country are confronted with
1t is not difficult to discover the con-
Germ the shipper and the consumer have

their interest in the candidate for legis-
lative honors, State or National The
railroad interests have permitted the
creation of these courts of appeal but
have handicapped them with inadequate
power.
1t is as necessary for the shipper to
have his interests guarded by friendly
and loyal lawmakers as il is to have his
case prosecuted at court by loyal al
torney. The Commission has complain
ed of this lack of power and is asking
for relief AS long as the railroad in.
terests can prevent it the relief will not
be had-no lawmaker can serve the car
rier interests Loyalty and at the same
time prove satisfactory to the shipper,
no more than can lawyer satisfactorily
represent both sides of case.
The growers, shippers and consumers,
alike, are at disadvantage in this
State, especially in that the paper with
the most means and the largest circu-
lation is controlled by interests to which
it must be loyal who ever else suffers.
1t is not an intelligent people nor
wise one who will permit such paper
to do their thinking or name their can
didates.
The interests of the growers and con-
sumers and the interests of the railroads
are common up to certain point. Be-
yond that point their interests are dia-
metrically opposed. The railroad has
transportation to sell and sells it as
dearly as the shippers business will
stand or the law will allow. When it
finally dawned upon the country that
transportation companies were not phil
anthr0pic institutions but were in the
business to make money for themselves

BRowARD's splendid reception in
Tampa indicates the feeling of the peo-
pie; he has demonstrated to them that
he has winning qualities, whether he
has fair deal from the press. or not;
and this is the heroic stuff that men
like to honor. Broward has twice won
against the hostile press and the entire
and allied corporation crowd in Florida,
and he is going to do it again. He has
stood and kept the fires burning warm
wher the blasts of opposition threaten
ed to destroy him and the policies rep.
resented by him. A man of such de-
termination and such signal ability
would as certainly make his mark in
the Senate of the United States and
reflect the credit on the State he repre-
sented. He couldn't be still and inact-
i've; his very nature would move him to
do things, as he has always been doing
useful practical things. Give Broward
six years in the Senate, and he would
have something more to show and less
to defend than a record of one hundred
and four pensions.

TRUE examples of devotion to the
peoples interests are seldom witnessed
but such occurred in Jacksonville last
Saturday and is being continued through
Florida this week. Nathan p. Bryan
was present at the TaliaferrO meeting,
and so vile, unture and against the
interests of the people, We're the state
ments made by Senator Taliaferro and
Frank Clark, that he announced that
he would refute the statements from
the same stand the following evening,
and he did it to the Queens taste"
producing evidence that proved that
the attacks upon Broward were untrue
and outrageous. and were simply the
gasping of the dying corporation con-
troll in Florida politics, which is resort
ing to any means to keep true repre-
sentative Of the people from Florida
ont uf the United States Senator.
Without Mr.. Rroward's knowledge or
consent, and purely from q sense of
duty to the people of Florida, Mr.. Bry-
an has spent this week on the stump in
the interest of Mr.. Broward' s election,
speaking at Orlando, Sanford, Kissim-
NEE and other South Florida towns. Al

IS HE FORGETTING MAT?
Name of Fred Beell, One of the Good
Wrestlers, Does Not
Appear Often.

Cleveland. O.. April allow about
Fred Been?
Is the wonderful little Badger going
back?
They do say that Fred has taken to the
simple life and that his inclination no
longer runs to the strenuous game of the
mat. With gun over his sturdy Shout
der and two or three of his bear dogs at
his stubby heels it is whispered along the
news path that Fred is as happy and con-
tented as Rip Van Wrinkle must have been
with a pack of children and faithful
Schneider.
Frederick Bismarck Beell has made
money out Of the graphing game and lac
has followed the example CT that other
sturdy dean of the wrestlers, Frank A.
Gotch, and saved what money he has
made. He owns a farm near Marshfield,
Wis, and has enough to keep him the rest
of his days. Freddy is simple in his
is very doubtful If he would dress other
than as the boy from the farm. The only
way you could ever get much out of Fred
was to get him wound up on bear hunting.
Then he would keep an opponent waiting
while he told you about some exciting
adventure he had had with his dogs and
bear.
So maybe Freddy is gradually forget
ting about the graphing game and is
happy and cOntented with his dogs and
the bears that are to be found down there
on the old farm. He is one of the fun
niest little characters the mat game has
forced into publicity, and the mat will
lose a great little athlete If Freddy really
decides that there is more fascination in
hunting bears than throwing some man
pounds heavier than himself.
