Tallahassee, Oct. 15.-Either through
chance or design the republicans have
this year nominated as their candidate
for state comptroller Mr.. George c.
Crom OF Ocala. For about ten years
prior to last February the comptroller
or the state was Hon. A. G. Groom Of
Brooksville. Mr.. Groom had thousands
OF personal friends in Florida. He died
last February. and Hon. w. W Knott
was appointed to be comptroller to
succeed him. In the democratic pri-
mary OF this year Mr.. Knott was
nominated without opposition for the
full term commencing next January
The republicans have very evidently
taken advantage of the similarity of
Mr.. Crom's name to that OF the late Mr.
Groom, and are trying to avail them
selves OF Mr.. Croom's great popularity
to get votes for their candidate for
comptroller. That this subterfuge has
already had some effect Is evidenced
by letters received by Mr.. Knott from
various parts OF the state. All demo-
Gratis should bear in mind that the
democratic candidate for comptroller is
Mr. w. V. Knott, and not be deceived
by the resemblance OF Mr. Crom's
name TO the late Mr.. Croom's Mr..
Knott is making q most excellent re-
cord as comptroller and deserves the
hearty support of every Florida dem
ocrat.-Times- Union.
Mr.. Crom, who was in the city last
night, refused to become agitated
about the foregoing. He says that he
never thought of availing himself OF
the similarity in names, and so far as
he knows. neither has his friends.

l.. 8. BECK

7 Many of our people were grieved this
morning to hear of the death of their
ord- friend and fellow citizen, Mr.. l. S.
Beck. who passed hway this morning at
s:45 o'clock The news was something
Of a surprise, fof while Mr.. Beck had
not been very robust and Of late years
had been ratheri feeble, he was always
able to be about and was cheerful, and
his friends had reason to believe he
would be with them yet several years.
Mr. Beck was 81 years old last
month. He was born in Camden, VIII
cox county, Ala, and was a member OF
one Of that states old and influential
families, while like thousands or
others supported the Lost Cause and
suffered in life and fortune with its
defeat Mr. Beck was elected mayor Of
Camden when only. 81 years old. He
was a college graduate and exceeding
ly well grounded in law. While
young man, he married Miss Halle
Irby, who died a year after the birth
of their only son, Alfred.
Mr.. Beck came to Florida about
thirty years ago. He at first follow
ed farming, but after few years
ago came to Ocala and resumed his
law practice. Since then he has made
his home in this city. Previous to Mr..
W. K Zewadskfs removing to Illinois
some years ago. he and Mr.. Beck were
law partners. Mr.. Beck generally did
the inside work, while Mr.. Zewadski
represented the firm in court, and Mr..
Zewadski speaks very highly of the
learning and acute application of Mr..
Beck, which always went to the foun-
dation of legal principles and brought
out points that decided many a hard
fought case.
Mr.. Beck was a most courteous as
we'll as intelligent gentleman, and a
great favorite with his friends. Tho
| in feeble health for many years, he
was always bright and smiling, and his
| kindly greetings and his ready tho
quiet wit made him welcome wherever
| he went. He was the soul Of honor
and was always ready to help others.
| Many times his legal services render
ed quietly but effectively and without
remuneration, helped the weak right
and curbed the vigorous wrong.
About ten days ago, he became too
i'll to remain out of bed any longer
His physicians and friends made a
good fight to keep him with them, but
| the disease was too strong for his en-
| feebled frame. His last days were
passed in his room in the Thomas res
idence on South Fourth street, which
has been his home for almost a quarter
of a century. His son, Mr.. Alfred
Beck, who has tended him most faith
fully during his illness, and others
dear to him were with him at the last
| The funeral ceremony will take
place tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock
at the residence of Mr.. Charles Math-
ews, on Tuscawilla street south. Mr.
Beck was a lifelong member Of the
Episcopal church, but in the absence
of a minister Of that denomination, DR.
w. H. Dodge will conduct the SER
vices. Interment will be in Greenwood
and McIver & MacKay will have charge
| of the arrangements.

BANNER CROP OF BEANS

]. L. Green, who settled last Novem-
Der on a tract Of land three miles
south of Summerfield, which he pur-
chased from the Florida National Land
Co., brought in last Thursday sample
Of velvet beans Of which he is very
proud. Mr.. Green has thirty acres and
estimates his crop at 400 barrels which
he can easily sell for s1.35 per barrel
in the pods. This means that he will
receive something like $500 from thirty
acres. OF this same land this year
Mr.. Gren has harvested a good crop of
corn, sweet potatoes, etc.-Summer-
field Chronicle.

AS soon as election is over, many
people in northern and western states
will have the means and the desire to
travel, and the disposition will in
crease after the holidays. A great
many of these would consider it the
time of their lives to take a trip to
Florida, but the expense is just little
beyond them. II the railroads would
give a low rate, effective from Dec. /
to March 1, 1T would bring thousands
here who otherwise will remain at
home and stop hundreds of miles north
of Florida. A most important thing to
consider in connection with the sug-
gested low rates is that they would
bring more prospective settlers in pro-
portion than are found among the peo-
pie who form the bulk of ordinary
tourist travel. They would be more
greatly impressed with the advantages
OF Florida as home and more likely
to return or induce their neighbors to
come. This Is matter that our boards
of trade should take up with the rail-
roads at once.

from his speech-making campaign on

welt. He is under the orders OF the

says, and will continue to make

him off. 1t really Is not necessary for
Governor Marshall to cease his cam
paign work. 1t Is appropriate enough
for Governor Wilson to await the COL
