DEMOCRATIC
NOMINEE OR
BULL MOOSER
PARK TRAMMELL GIVES OUT IN.
TERvIEW REGARDING CLAIMS
OF RoosEvELTs SUPPORTERS
IN FLORIDA.

Just before leaving the city yester-
day morning after delivering an ad-
dress the night previous to the voters
Of Escambia county, Hon. Park
Trammell, the Democratic nominee for
governor. spoke further of the Bull
Moose claims and of their ideas of
government, proving conclusively that
they are either ignorant of how the
government is conducted or else are
attempting to fool the people. Regard
ing the claim of the Bull Moose can
didate for governor of abolishing all
state and county taxes the attorney
general said:
I have noticed that he says do away
with state and county taxes but as Of
ten as I have noticed his utterances
along this line, l have also observed
that his suggestion as to how it is to
be done falls far short of providing a
plan by which 1t can be done.
He says use the license tax, the
interest on the state school fund, the
hire of state convicts and other funds
which he does not name and which
does not exist. support the state and
county governments and abolish taxes.
BY the figures and the facts we can
determine whether or not his sugges-
ton Is feasible and one that can be
accomplished or is an absurd PROPOSE
ton. The total of the license tax, the
interest on the school fund and the
hire of convicts amounts to about one
million dollars annually. This is ap-
piled on the expenses of the state and
county governments In addition to
this million dollars, the state and
county taxes amount to about five and
a half million dollars annually. This
sum is also used in paying the ex-
penses of the counties and the state.
AS the last named sum is required
over and above the million dollars
from license taxes, school fund and
hire of convicts, 1t is plain that to do
away with taxes we must provide a
way to raise the five and half mil
lion dollars now raised annually by
taxes. He seems to rely upon the mil
lion dollars from license taxes, the
school fund and convict hire for this
purpose when, as a matter of fact, five
and a half million dollars is needed
| in addition to the million.
Where Will Balance Come From.
! Where is it to come from? That is
| the all important question. He has not
| informed us yet and until he gives a
feasible, just and practicable plan fol-
| raising the five and a half million dol
/ lars, every citizen in Florida knows his
! proposition has nothing to it and thai
! it is pure foolery to think taxes car
i be done away with in any such man
\ ner When the facts and figures are
considered his talk about abolishing
/ taxes is shattered and the absurdity
/ of his proposition is plain to everyone
/ He has been quoted as saying that the
i plan was not original with him but il
i came from the late Comptroller Groom
| Having talked with Mr.. Groom very
! frequently about tax matters and never
/ having heard him suggest a PROPOSE
/ ton in keeping with that of the Re-
! publican-Bull Moose candidate, I fee
! sure he has confused the plan sug-
/ gested by him with the idea which Mr.

fund Is loaned TO foreign corporations,
unless a state is to be so called, nor
is any of ii loaned to private institu-
tions in Florida. The entire fund is
invested in state bonds and Florida
county and city interest bearing bonds.
Every dollar of the interest, which
amounts to about sixty thousand dol
lars annually. is apportioned to the
counties and is used for county schools.
The board handling this fund has for
the past three years been investing it
as fast as available in such Florida
county and city bonds as bear the
highest rate of interest and it is the
purpose of the board, If the next legis-
lature will pass laws making the in
vestment in county warrants, most Of
which bear seven and eight per cent
interest, a safe investment, to get the
fund as rapidly as possible invested in
such warrants and thereby get more
interest on the fund"

having any taxes as is claimed to be
true in Minnesota. This is answered
by advice from one of the officers of
that state to me that Minnesota has
both state and county tax on all
property. The county tax is about
thirty million dollars and the state tax
about six million dollars annually in
Minnesota.
Would Double Taxes.
ANY plan for having a tax for a
certain number of years and then
doing away with taxes for an equal
number of years. as suggested by the
Bull Moose candidate, would mean
that taxes, both state and county.
would have to be increased to double
what they are now so as to make
ready for the period of no taxation.
Do the taxpayers want their taxes
doubled for the purpose of carrying
out any such scheme?

could be supported by the license tax,
the hire from convicts and the rail-
road taxes without a tax levy for
state purposes, but Mr.. Croom's plan
carried with it no idea of also doing
away with county taxes, as he was too
well informed upon the question of the
state and county revenue and the ex-

both without taxes. In keeping with

AN EXAMPLE OF GRoWTH.

After the freight bill had been paid
and the commission mans percentage
suhtracted a Long Island farmer re-
ceived a little more than 80 cents a
bushel for the lima beans he raised
this season. The farmer went to New
York within a day or two, and feeling
some curiosity as to the retailing of
his beans, traced them to one of the
big markets. There he found his 80
cent beans selling at 10 cents a quart,
which figures $3.50 a bushel.
The farm produce raised in this
country last year brought the farmers
about $4,000, 100000. The consumers
paid $13, 600. 600, 900 for that produce.
Somewhere between the farmer and
the ultimate purchaser the price had
doubled and a billion dollars slapped
on for good measure.
Doesn't $1,000, 900, 600 seem rather
tough charge for transportation, hand
ling and marketing a 49, goo, 600, 600
crop: Yet how much worse If the price
upon all farm stuff multiplied as much
and as fast as the beans Of the Long
Island farmer?
The optimist will find some ground
for thankfuiness in the marketing sys-
tenn, bad as It is. 1t is hoped, though,
the conviction that the situation might
be worse will o deter the optimist
from Joining any movement to operate
on that $4,000, 00O, 900 swelling.

THE ATHLETE IN AFTER LIFE.

In the current number Of The Am
erican Practitioner, Or. Harley Brooks,
professor of clinical medicine in the
New York university, has a valuable
contribution to the controversy on the
subject Of the influence of youthful de-
yotion to athletics on the future of
the man, from a physical standpoint.
Or. Brooks has had exceptional oppor-
tunity to study this subject from the
fact that, as examiner for a national
guard regiment, he has had occasion
to pass upon the physical conditions
both of men who have obtained dis
tinction in college athletics and of the
uaen Of the average type who have
taken no active part in sport.
There are, Of course, two sides to
ibis question. DIR. Brooks at the start
admits most that has been claimed as

The career Of sugar manufacture
from beets as a real industry in this
country is less than fifteen years old.
The census Of 1900 was the first to take
account of it. The year before that
8 1873 tons Of sugar had been made
from beets. Two years later the pro-
duction increased to 218, 4O6 tons. The
half million ton mark was passed in
1905. Last year the increase was rela-
lively small over 1905. but the final re-
turns of this year will show a pro-
duction very nearly, and possibly more
than 100000 tons. ...
