The meeting in the Town Hall base

She don't know nothink about it
she only thinks she does, that's all.
Phoebe better tend strickly to her
own business as a dressmaker and
let the men of Bingvflle run the

citizens of Bingville, and put down
this hydry-headed monster of
winrncrs suffrage which has
reared its head in our midst!

EDDYTORIAL

We take our eddytoria1 pen In
hand to madly dash off a eddy
torial on a subjeckt which has be-
come a turrible menace to Bing
vile & unless something is did
about it at onct or sooner than
that if possibil it looks like as if
our enterprising & progressive
town was going to get all
smirched up and deterioriate &
degenerate into obnoxshious dee
sewetewd, as we might say.
WE REFER TO THE WIN
MEN OF BINGVILLE WHO
WANTS TO VOTEi
What are we a coming to emmy
how when the wifes & mothers
ard sisters of this town so fur
forgets their places as to ask and
even demand the sakred right of
suffrage which has allus belonged
to the stern and stalwart male
sex of men! What would hap
pen in our midst if US men who
constitoot the husbands & fathers
& brothers of this town would
give our consent for winnen of
Bingville to march to the Town
Hall on eleckshion day and cast
their ballots jest the same as a
man does What in Sam Hill be
we a going to do about this, gents
Be we a going to set back and let
this movement for wirnnen to vote
in Bingvi11e overturn our whole
po1iti<al economy, we ask? No,
1000 times no
It is time for us to rise up like
men and hold fast to our rights
it is time for us to take the bull
by the horns Tor the cows by their
horns which would perhaps be
more appropriately, and show the
wirnrnen of Bingville that their
place is in the home skrubbing
floors and coozin and balzin for
their lords & masters instid of go
ing around amongs theirselfs and
aggitatin the right to vote.
Miss Phoebe FIilderbrand, our
well knowd dressmal<er and maker
of robes ct mantoze is at the head
of this movement. Phoebe is the

(There was turrible loud applause when

Barlow Feb. 9.--After q thorough
Investigation of the conditions affect
ing. the unvei1ing of the monument that
has been erected on the battlefield of
Glustee, on the goth of the present
month. the members OF the commits
sion in charge Of the work are unani-
Elously of the opinion that It would be
entirely i1npracticable to make the oc-
casion a creditabIe one to the state or
to the important event which the
monument is intended to commemer-
ate, If the unveiling should be at
tempted on that date The commission
has therefore decided to postpone the
unvei8ng ceremonies until the annual
reunion Of the Florida Division United
Ce11federate Veterans, which win be
held 81 Lake City In October.
IN order that all interested parties
may understand the situation. atten-
tion is called to the fact that the
monument which has been erected on
the Battlefield is literally in the
woods. and the nearest railroad sta
ton 60lustee), which is over two miles
distant, could not afford entertainment
for enc hundred persons. The attend
ance therefore would derend entirely
. llron excursion trains from points suf-
fcient1y near to so and return the
same day. This would exclude the
people OF three-fourtfls OF the state
from attendance except at great ex-
pense and inconvenience from a cere-
meny that should be state wide in its
interest.

600 majority. To win we must have
Ohio, and Harmon is the man.
THE masses in Ohio speak out to the
other states, he is good enough for US,
and they are living under pretty nearly
the same conditions that the other
states are.
Il am sincere in this opinion, but to

COUNTY.

The United States department of
agriculture calls attention to the fact
that American foul brood has been
found to exist in Escamhia county.
The department has no means of
knowing how long the disease has
existed in the region, but desires TO
notify bee keepers Of the trouble and
to suggest that, If not already In
formed concerning the disease, they
inform themselves at once. Very fire.
quently colonies of bees are destroyed
by disease and the loss is attributed
by the bee keeper to some other cause.
Farmers bulletin No. 442, The Treat
ment of Bee Diseases, gives a descrip.
ton of the brood diseases and meth
