Why CsIled Reaefionary7


The editor Of 1'HE HERALD has
been wondering for some time
why Brother Preyatt and i few
other esteemed newspaper friends
regard him as . reactics:s.y and
he has at last discovered 4 reason.
Il is because he advocated Gil
christ for governor and also for
United States senator; also be-
cause he advocated and voted for
Underwood for president. If that
makes him a reactionary, he is
comforted to recall the fact that
be WINS with 5000 majority Of bis
fellow Democrats in dominating
Gilchrist for governor and with
5000 majority of them in voting
to nominate Underwood for presi-
dent.
From this, ii will be seen that
The so.caIled reactionaries have a
pretty good working majority in
Florida and it would not be po-
|itical wisdom to fling stones at
Them. Eth, Brother Prevatt?

That policy was to win friends
from the opposition. Instead Of
frowning upon those who were
politically against him, or Willy

Stanley found him, but Livingstone
refused to return with his rescuer He
must complete his work. In the gray
dawn Of a day in 1878 he was found
dead on his knees. No highly cultured
and delicateIy sensitive friends could
have met the necessities of that situa-
ton more intelligently than did his
faithful servants, who buried the heart

He opened the road to commerce.
He announced the wealth Of interior
Africa, was the first Britisher to cross
northern Rhodesia, located the cotton
and maize growing regions and discov
cred the healthy highlands of central
Africa
1t was the discoveries Of Livingstone
that drew the attention of the British
government to the possibilities Of CEN
trail Africa. He shattered the claim of
the Portuguese to central African ter
ritory by proving that they had never
surveyed or even visited it. Every
year that passes proves the wisdom of
the advocacy Of Livingstone for parts
of central Africa as white mans
land.
When Livingstone started to cross
the Kalahari desert in 1849 the whole
of central Africa was unknown land.
1t was commonly conjectured to be In
the nature of a vast desert. Living
stone broke through the ignorant con-
lecture Of his day and proved central
Africa to be a fertile land Of mighty
forests and magnificent streams. He
inaugurated wonderful period Of AT
rican travel and discovery and was the
first of noble band of explorers who
have mapped Africa from west to east
and from south to north. Where Liv-
ingstone travelled it was always safe
for white man to follow. His pacific
mission. his Christian behavior and

disclosure Of the atrocities of the At

He travelled $4,000 miles among saw
age tribes, but the black men of the
far interior of the mysterious and IN
known continent never molested him.

simple and fearless manner and trans

he found in the Zambezi he named for

many Of the secrets Of the country and
crossed the continent from the Cape
almost to the Kongo and again from
the west coast to the eastern, he sailed
for England in 1856, after an absence
of fifteen years.
All England honored him. Men saw
in him a most remarkable combination
of astronomer, geographer, zoologist,
botanist, mercantile man, doctor and
missionary. Other long journeys claim
ed him. He consecrated himself to the
service of the slave. His travels be-
came a crusade against the slave trad
ers. He traced the African slave routes
and uncovered the horrors of the traf-
