though last year ten thousand barrels
of pears were shipped from Monticel-
10 to the northern and eastern mar
kets, the profits amounting to about
twenty thousand dollars.
Quite good deal Of tobacco is also
grown in Jefferson county, and al
though at present this industry has re-
ceived somewhat of a black eye, still
great things are being hoped for from
it in the future development Of west
Florida.
There are many large plantations
in the near vicinity of Monticello, and
the old-time aristocratic planters of
Jefferson county were famous all over
the south. In the olden days the cot
ton plantations in this county were
very large and the Bellamys here were
among the largest planters of Sea Is
land cotton in the south. One of these
Bellamy plantations, now owned by
Mr., Randolph Eppes, a descendant of
the Bellamy family, consists of ten
thousand acres, and is one of the STOW
places of the county. Mrs. Dannette
Mayes is a descendant of the Bella
mys, and her family own very large
plantation Tuscawilla--between Mo :
|ticello and Tallahassee, in Leon coun-
ty.
There are several very beautiful
and attractive estates within few
miles of Monticello, which are owned
by northern men, some of whom
come down for the winter and others
remaining south for the greater part
of the year. The Frishmuth place,
owned by Philadelphia people; the
Pugsley place, owned by Buffalo peo-
pie, and the Burrows place, owned by
wealthy men from the middle west,
are among the most notable. These
places are beautifully kept up, and
show evidences of the push and ener
gy and thrift of their northern own
ers.
In few days the writer will try to
give the readers Of the Banner an ar
ticle on the pecan industry, which is
in leaps and bounds in this
county, and which bids fair to place
Florida in the front rank as nut pro-
ducing state. IS. II. L.

SNOW HILL. MD. MAY Is
Do You Want 1t?

One of the things the voters
of Worcester County will have
to decide at the polls this year
will be whether or not they
favor the Crawford County
system of making party nomi-
nations. When the State pri-
mary law was passed by the
last Legislature Worcester and
several other counties were ex-
empted from the operations of
the law with the proviso that
the question be referred to the
voters of these exempted coun-
ties.
Thousands of people who
thought they favored the new
way of making nominations got
a fair insight into the way the
law operates, by closely watch
ing the result in Baltimore a
few weeks ago, and they are
now just as much opposed to
the law as they formerly favor
ed it. The Republicans always
have been opposed to the Craw.
ford County system, as the
nominations of that party are
usually controlled by a few
politicians, who farm the offices
out to themselves and a small
coterie of their friends.

Wickersham Is Worried

United States Attorney Gen
eral Wickersham is worrying.
He is afraid the Investigations
to be made into the affairs of
the steel trusts, sugar trusts,
shoe trust and wooden trust
will give these concerns immu-
nifty from prosecution. AS all
of these concerns, with the ex-
ception of a few SIS a week
employees of the sugar trust,
have enjoyed absolute immu-
nifty from prosecution and in
vestigation since the day Mr..
Wickersham left the service of
the sugar trust to become the
chief prosecuting officer of the
government, it is difficult to un-
derstand how the immunity
which they might receive, but
will not, through congressional
Investigations, could be any
more complete than the immu-
nifty Mr.. Wickersham has given
them.

Schedule TX" is Next.

Schedule X, the joker-filled
wool schedule of the Payne,
Aldrlch tariff law, will be the
subject of the first general tariff
revision of the Democratic
house.
All the jokers by which rates
have been piled one upon an
other until the total has been
far in excess of 100 per cent. are
to be abolished.
Likewise there will be abol-
ished the infamous provisions
of the Payne-Aldrich law, by
which material containing wool
but really made of cotton, is
taxed as wool. The average re-
duction on all items in the
wooden schedule is expected TO
reach at least % per cent.
What the Democrats propose
will cause a tremendous cutlery
from the wooden trust and its
allies, the producers of raw wool,
and will no doubt provoke men
like Warren of Wyoming,
Lippett of Rhode Island and
the other high protectionists of
the senate into predicting the
the downfall Of the nation.

Mr.. Anderson's statement does
not take into consideration at
all the attitude of any Republi-

No doubt Mr.. Anderson does not

he does not consider the Repub-
lican party of Maryland worthy
