dustry in Florida. 1 supposed that
interest was due 10 the medicinal

the fact that it is an important ingred-
lent in high explosives, and because
Japan has control of Formosa, the
principal source of supply. / stated
that the method in Formosa was to
chop down very old trees and distill
camphor for the chips, but in Florida
and Texas they have this method beat
a block, so far as quick returns are
concerned. They SOW the, seed like

DOES NOT WANT TO, CONVERT
THE WORLD INTO A GRAVE
YARD

The goody-doodies of Charlotte, N.
c., are trying to make other people as
good as they think themselves by leg
islation, and are after the legislature
to pass a law to prohibit people from
spending too much time in the parks
on Sunday and so much money for
soda water. The Pharisaical crowd
does not seem to consider that the
Sabbath was made for man and not
man for the Sabbath, as Scripture
tells, so are constantly trying to cur.
tail the pleasures of recreations on
the day of rest.
The law for the observance of the
Sabbath should be as liberal as are
compatible with public safety and
morals. If we are to do nothing or
the Sabbath day except sit up, lool
solem and sing long-meter psalms
we would rather suffer a blue Monday
than so hypocritical a Sunday. Lei
us, however, enjoy the good things o.
the world without abusing them, and
let each man do as his conscience
i dictates unless it be detrimental tt
his neighbor, or against established
public policy Orlando Reporter-Star

PEARYs REWARD

There is-a measure of poetic justice
at least in the somewhat belated rec
ognition which congress has accorded
Robert E. Perry as discoverer of the
north pole. The doughty explorer has
been extended the nations thanks and
has been placed on the retired list
with the rank of rear admiral and the
highest pay of that rank.
The commanders case would doubt
less have never provoked any heated
discussion had it not been for the
peculiar circumstances amid which he
returned from his famous journey.
DR.. Cook peace to his ashes-was in
the midst of brief but none the less
ebullient triumph wien all of sudden
down dashed Peary with the startling
news that he alone was the real dis
coverer of the pole. The wrangles
which the situation engendered will
ever be one of the rarest chapters in
the worlds book of humor.
If households were torn asunder BY
this issue, it is little wonder that con
gress should have been divided il
opinion. But the most careful examin
alton and the most learned testimon.
seem to leave little or no doubt tina
Peary is the true discoverer.
In that event he is certainly en-
Titled to due honors at the hands o
congress. While we have as We
found no particular use for the nortI
pole, it is a source of pride to know
THAT an American first fetched it from
tits time-old mystery.
! In addition to this any man who pei
forms the feats that the commando
did has set an example of moral a
well as physical hardihood that merit

NO INTENTION OF LEAVING FLOR
IDA


While making an after-dinner
speech at the lawyers convention in
this city, Hon. w. c.. MacWilliams re-
ferred to the idea entertained by some
that it would be better to have the
western part of Florida become part
OF Alabama. While we have the kind
lest feeling toward our neighbors in
Alabama, the vast majority west of
the Apalachicola river would revolt
II the proposition were now made to
have this section made part of an
other state.
Admitting that west Florida gets
about the same deal from the state as
the south gets from the United States,
there is no disposition on the part OF
our people to leave the state. This is
a part of Florida-one of the besi
parts-and we have some of the mos
progressive, most intellectual, ant
most public-spirited citizens in tn,
world. True, this has not been rec
ognized by the voters in the other sec
fions of the state when high offices
were at stake, but there is an educa
tional movement on and we expect
TO bear good results.

and nowhere is the future so bright a

West Florida is satisfied as it is
We would like to have a state office

much--but be that as it may. there il
nothing to make us want to leave tn,

EDGERTON REELECTED
Entire Republican City Ticket
Wins in Rochester.
Inv telegraph to The Tribune.

Rochester, Nov. lin the reelection OF
Mayor Hiram II. Edgerton and the en-
the Republican city ticket, with the ex-
ception of three out of the twenty-five AL
dermen, the Democrats see the handwrit-
ing Oh the wall as a result OF their fac
tional fight.
The fight was started at the time Of tina
election of commissioner OF election,
and a bitter war was waged as a result.
The fight finally resulted in the resigna-
ton Of John F. Daily. chairman Of the
Democratic County Committee. Demo
cratic State Committeeman Thomas T..
Finucane and State Superintendent of
Elections John Palace kept up the war.
even after their man had been elected
commissioner of elections. and when The
Democratic party convention met the Bit
terness again asserted itself. The men
nominated on tho ticket, from that OF
Mayor down, resigned, and the committee,
to fill vacancies, put in a strenuous week
combing the party for available candi-
dates. Finally Howard r. Mosser, for
mer chairman of the Democratic County
Committee and now n professor at the
University of Rochester, was induced to
take the nomination. \ half dozen other
we'll known Democrats were also prevailed
on to fill the vacancies caused by the
wholesale resignation of the former nom
inees.
The Democrats made the campaign an
issue of bossism. directing all of their
guns against the state committeeman,
George W. Aldridge. But the Republican
leader won victory all along the line,
electing the entire city. county and legis-
lative ticket. The Democrats elected only
three out OF twenty-five members OF the
Board Of Aldermen, and only eight out
OF forty-one members OF the Board of Su-
pervisors.
Mayor Edgertons plurality is 500, which
rs almost as large as it was two years
ago. when he was elected by the largest
plurality by which a Mayor was ever
elected in the history of the city OF Roch-
ester
