A strange fatality has overtaken a
number of United States senators
from Florida in recent years It will
be remembered that when the lament
ed Stephen Mallory died, the brilliant
William James Bryan was appointed
by Governor Broward to fill the unex-
pired term. Senator Bryan was in the
senate only a few days but in those
few days he gave promise of making
one of the best senators the state ever
had. After the Grim Reaper gathered
Senator Bryan in, Governor Broward
then appointed Senator Milton to fill
out the very short time remaining of
the term. Now after primary which
to all intents and purposes was an
election, Governor Broward was elect
ed and soon afterwards was himself
stricken by death in the very zenith
of his powers. Besides the sadness of
the thing the occurrences have an un-
canny look.

Have the Cities
Robbed the Country?

The sensation OF the census for this
year is the rapid growth of the cities
of the south. This growth Is not con-
fined to new or boom towns that have
recently sprung up but to old and con
sentative cities that were large and
influential fifty and hundred years
ago. Such old cities as Mobile, Rich.
mond and Montgomery have shown
almost phenomenal increase in popu.
lation.
The question naturally arises, have
not the rural districts Of the south suf-
fered in this rapid increase Of the
cities and towns? While it is yet too
early to tell what has been the growth
of many of the rural communities IL
Is believed that their increase has not
been in keeping with that of the
cities and towns.
IL was believed that a few years ago
when the movement of back to the
farm" was inaugurated and so much
was spoken and written on this mat.
ter that the growth of the country
sections would be large. The fact
that this is time very favorable to
farmers and that the prices Of farm
products are higher than they have
been for years should also give a great
impetus to the settlement of the farms
but such has not been the case.
The Journal believes that the south
has not suffered as much in this re.
spect as most OF the other sections OF
the country and that Florida and
especially the country around Pensa
cola will show a healthy farm in.
crease. While the cities of the south
have grown most. 1t may be that the
southern rural districts have also
grown considerably.
In some of the farming sections OF
the north and middle west it is be-
neved that the population has actually
fallen of, but nowhere in the south
has this been the case, although in a
great many instances many Of the
country people have moved into the
towns and cities rather than maintain
their households in isolated communi
ties. But these people are farmers
after all and often have their planta
lions in a high state Of cultivation
