AS a straw showing the value of
Dunnellon property, we instance the
case OF Mr. G.. Y. Miller, who owns
considerable property in that city.
Some time ago party approached Mr.,
Miller and asked what he would take
for his holdings. Mr.. Miller stated he
would take $4,000. The party said he
would consider the matter and the
same was delayed, and when the
purchaser returned, Mr.. Miller said the
price was off. \ little later another
party made application for the prop
erty and the price was placed at Sl2,-
900, but time was asked for a reply
None was given and shortly after the
party returned and was informed the
price named was for cash. Several
weeks elapsed and another would be
buyer approached Mr.. Miller and ask
ed him to name his price; this then
was $4,000, spot cash. He had to first
consult the principals in the transac-
ton. few more weeks elapsed and
the party returned and said he would
take the property, but again the fatal
wait interviewed and there was moth
ing doing. few days ago another
party approached Mr.. Miller and ask
ed for his price. $4,000 was the re-
Spouse. Again time was asked but Mr..
Miller said he didn't care much to sell
the same as it gave him a rental Of
$4,000 year Now that is not bad for
Dunnellon buildings, when it is re
membered that Mr.. Miller secured the
property for hundreds and not SO
many years ago, when now he can get
thousands for 1t.

BOLD WORDS FROM BORAH
Scored the Northern states for HypOc-

Question

Washington. Feb. l7-That prejudice

North plays the hypoCritr in its con

and bluntly asserted in the Senate
yesterday by a republican senator. The
speaker was Senator BOrah Of Idaho.
His declarations regarding the negro
were made at the close of a prolOng-
ed speech in opposition TO the Suther-
land amendment TO the Senate resolu-
tion providing for the election OF sen
ators by popular vote. That amend
ment would have the effect Of giving
Congress control of senatorial cleo
Tons.
The Idaho senator expressed deep
regret that the race question had been
brought into the controversy and as
serted that its introduction was in
tended only 70 imperil the resolution.
Il wonder how long the North il go
ing to play the hypocrite and the NOR
al coward on this question: said Mr..
Borah. and added that that section al
ways had assumed more wisdom and
more tolerance in dealing with this
problem than had been displayed else
where. He insisted that a call of the
roll or Northern states IN WhlcA tnere
is any appreciable number of negroes
would demonstrate that the North had
not dealt more lenently with the ne
gro than had other sections.
The Northern states have exhibited
the same race prejudice that has been
shown elsewhere he asserted. In the
North We burn the negro at the stake
and there, a. in other sections. we
have our race wars. We push our ne

ORIGIN OF OUR CALENDAR
Story Of the Year and lts Days, ~
Now Constituted, Told
Once More.

The Julian year consists OF 365N
days and exceeded by IL minutes 1925
seconds the solar year Of 365 days
hours 48 minutes 46 seconds In con-
sequence Of this, the equinox in the
course OF few centuries fell back con-
siderably In the time of Julius Cae-
sar, II corresponded to March rs,
and by the sixteenth century 1t had
retrogarded to March IL. It was at
this time that physician of Verona
named Ghiraldi proposed a plan for
amending the calendar He died be-
fore he had opportunity to carry It
forward, but his brother presented 1t
to Pope Gregory XIII. who assembled
a number of learned men to discuss It
1t was passed upon favorably and
adopted, and thus was given to the
world what has since been known az
the Gregorian calendar, In 1852 Greg
ory issued brief, apolishing the Julian
calendar in all Catholic countries, and
Introducing the reformed one.
The reform of the Gergorian. Ut new
on the Julian or old, consisted In
dropping ten days after October 4,
1882, so that the 18th was reckoned
Immediately after the 4th. Every one
hundredth year, which, by the oId style
was leap year. was to be a common
year, the fourth century, divisible by
four, excepted; that is, 1900 was to re-
main leap year, but 1900, 1900 and
1900 were not to be reckoned as such.
while 1000 was to be reckoned.
In this calendar the length OF the
solar year is taken to be 265 days
hours 40 minutes and 12 seconds, the
difference between which and the true
length is immaterial.-The Christian
Herald
