What State Editors are
Saying.
To Remove Principle Destruction

10 Remove Principle Obstruction
In explaining its position on the pro-
hibition amendment the Tampa Times
makes it clear that it does not believe in
statewide prohibition, but declares its
fcalty to the cause of Temperance and
Sobriety. That is all any of us are
working for, but we differ as TO the
means of reaching the end. Many be-
lievc that the home, the pulpit and the
press furnish the best means of inculca-
ling habits of temperance, and these
are undoubtedly potent factors, but it
does not seem the part of good judg-
ment to set up the saloon, with its allure
mentS, in constant and active opposition
TO these influences. Generally when
men set out TO accomplish a great work
for the community they try TO remove
obstacles in the way of its accomplish
ment in order that a clear track may be
had. This is what prohibitioniStS are
trying 10 do. They want the saloon

Expose Land Sharks and Fakirs-

Don't you know that it will hurt the
stories about land Swindles in Florida
and enticing people here by false repre-
SentationS," says some one. No, we
don't; but we know that it will hurt the
state very much more for the press to
keep silent on the subject and thereby
practically aid and abet such work.
every man who is duped out of his
money by these land schemes without
truth or merit in them is tranformed
from a friend into bitter, active and
perhaps lifelong enemy of Florida, and
he will make il point to decry the
state and everybody and everything in
it every opportunity he gets. But if the
press shall unite TO expose these illegiti-
mate schemes the integrity of our peo-
pie in their efforts TO secure immigration
will be vindicated, valid land enterprises
will helped, and the victims of the other
kind be greatly diminished in numbers.
This State has too many honest induce
mentS and splendid resources to draw
capital and immigration TO permit land
sharks without conscience, operating
schemes without merit, TO put cloud
upon them by their glowing advertise
mcntS of lands down here purposcly
worded to deceive and to separate the
sucker from his money. The honest,
valid landed opportunities in Florida TO-
day are almost bewildering in their ex-
tent and diversity. No state in the
Union can match them or near match
them, and sharks and fakirS with their
gilded schemes should be quickly ex-
posed and put out of business in the in
tcrcst of the vast, and actual resources OF
the State waiting to be exploited. See

arises: Can one man alone produce,
by his individual effort, the vast dis
plays of wealth which is often credited
to one alone? 1t is true assertion,
borne out by all history, that some
men will scatter and some gather up,
but taking care of our possessions with
the right thought and planning does
not include trusts, combines, corners,
corporations which hold the power to
exercise absolute control of vast
amounts of material wealth. We have
seen the results of these conditions.
We have seen the monster Greed de-
vouring the smaller powers and factors

the power of one man or a combine of
few men, used to send prices soar

of supply, no motive whatever except
that which prompts the cannibal to
eat his fellow. And yet corruption,
clothed in fine garments, receives too
often our recognition. Our very laws
arc perverted and justice crippled.
