congress. 1t meets in September at

has done in behalf of the peace move

voted herself to the establishment of
a Unity Sunday, and the organiza-

had been presented at the English
court, and Queen Mary had compli-
mented her on being the most beau

placed the costly gown of turquoise

A deal of Importance was consum-
mated Saturday when KILLER Bros,

This property was purchased ten
years ago by Mr. Lowell for $500,
which demonstrates the way proper
ty has advanced since that time.
1t is not known exactly what the
plans of the Messrs. Kibler are, but
as they recently purchased the old

DIXIE is OFF ITS TROLLEY

When a Jacksonville paper COM
pared Tampa with Sodom or Gomor-
rah-or both--it sounds to us like
pot calling kettle black.
Tampa may be infested with cut
threats, scoundrels and gambling
bells, but if Dixie would get the beam
out of it's own eye it might possibly
discover that Jacksonville is infested
with footpads, thugs and murderers.
In fact, we believe Tampa has a
little the best of it, It's cutthroats
and scoundrels prey upon each other
and have a little hell of their own,
while the Jacksonville thugs and muir
derers prey upon the innocent and
peaceable citizens.
While Charlie Jones was muck-rak-
ing in Tampa an innocent old gro
ceryman was found dead in his store
in Jacksonville, killed while defend
ing his till from burglars Dixie did
not feature this story.
We believe there is a half dozen
murders in Jacksonville to one in
Tampa. and still further, that not one
murderer in ten in Jacksonville is
ever brought to justice.
The citizens of Duval county voted
million dollars for good roads, and
from all We can learn graft is going
to get fully one-half that million.
Really. it looks as if Dixie would
get a fne-tooth comb and rake over
Duval it would have enough TO do for
the next few years before ii would
even get TO its rum emporiums-those
fellows who advertise 100 pints or
half pints for the convenience of the
blind tigers throughout the state.
We can understand how mothers
love makes a woman think her baby
rhe prettiest and cutest baby in the
world. but it is beyond our compre-
hension 10 understand why man Iiv-
in a town STEPPED in iniquity and rum
would go 10 another town to look for
sin.
We have long contended that both
Jacksonville and Tampa have pros
pered not by being "wide-open"
towns, but in spite Of their handicap
Of sinfuIness. .z!iEl!sl
