Sank Centre is a very popular point

Ducks and prairie chickens are more
plentiful this year than for many
years past, according to all reports.
For several seasons past the game
birds have had favorable seasons for
Matching and the late opening of the
game season gave the birds a chance
to fully mature before the hunters
got after them. AS a result more
birds have been winteriDg over and
they have steadily increased from
year to year. Farmers coming to
Sank Center report chicken num-
erous, and around the lakes and
streams an unusually large num-
Der of ducks are to be seen. The
first day of the open season for
chickens falls on Sunday this year,
and it is safe bet that every man
and boy who can procure a gun, will
be in the fields at daylight on the
opening day. H. A. Rider, executive
agent of the State Game and Fish

Congressman Claude L'Engle
is being highly praised here for
his successful efforts in behalf of
the improvement of Charlotte
Harbor. After the proposition
had been turned down by the gov
eminent engineers, on request of
our representatives the engineers
agreed to grant re-hearing to be
held in Washington sometime
this month. This would have put
our people to considerable ex-
pense in sending up committees
to represent them at the re-hear-
ing and they appealed to Congress
man L'Engle to use his influence
to have the re-hearing held in
Punta Gorda. This he did, with
the result that the engineers
agreed to have the re-hearing held
here on some date yet to be fixed
during next month. For this. our
people feel very grateful to MIR.

DeSoto county is not yet afflicted.
They hold that the supreme court
would take this view, if the ques-

refuse to levy tax to pay for q

event the Arcadia advocates only
recourse would be to apply to the
supreme court for mandamus
compelling the commissioners to
levy the tax.
This would bring the question
up on its merits in equity, when
it would be shown to the satisfac-

Tampa and her people and

resentatives in congress, the presi-
dent of the United States and the
officials of the treasury depart
ment, are hereby informed that
the people of this entire section
disapprove emphatically of the
proposition to make jacksonville
the headquarters(or only port for
customs for Florida. If the Gus
toms districts must be consolidated
as is probably right and proper,
then Tampa is indisputably the
right place for headquarters. Of
many arguments to this effect
that might be presented, one only
should be sufficient and that is
that the customs collections at
Tampa are three times greater
han those of all other Florida
ports combined and are seventy
i've times greater than those of
Jacksonville. In view of this, it
would be actually foolish not to
make Tampa the headquarters.
