ship in which William J. Bryan 10
said to be exercising an influence In
favor of Col. J. D. Calhoun, has
aroused great interest among the
members Of the legislature.
1--WE all have great respect for
William J. Bryan" said leading
senator, but We do not think that he
has the remotest thing to do with
Florida patronage. and the people OF
florida will resent any interference
ith their affairs in this respect. Al
matter OF fact this very thing il
soing to react on Colonel Calhoun.
II he hadn't lugged William J. Bry.
an into the matter the Nebraskan
wouldn't have been known in tho
matter. and the people Of Florida
wouldn't be exercised over 1t. Will
liam J. Bryan has a good chance 70
lessen his general influence by but
ting into this local matter. The
people of this State have nothing to
d. with his political debts contracted
in Nebraska several years ago, and.
while Colonel Calhoun may be
splendid and deserving gentleman.
the very fact that he is looking to
William J. Bryan to gel. him thia
job is going to militat's against hts
chances"
The story comes from Tampa that
the people there have about given
UT hope that the customs districts
Of Florida are going to be reiustatea
as they were before the arbitrary
TAFT orcer. which is supposed to go
Tito effect July l. 1918. The dope

s.sted for the collectorship ut Jack.
scnvillc, which is supposed to locate
both Jacksonville and Tampa: Jack
sonvillc because It has the main OF.
flee and Tampa because it has the
collector. This kind of thing. how
ever, Is far from satisfying to many.
A letter received by prominent
politician in Tallahassee at this time
says that former Mayor Frcckcr. OF
Tampa Is going to get the place
which Calhoun and Angle are after.
The letter says that Frecker has tho
endorsement of Senator Fletcher and
ether members Of the Florida dele
cation. and stands good chance e
landing the collectorship.
The matter Of appointments is agi-
tating many communities. and Talla-
hassee Is not free from It, Major U.
]. Williams Of this place is a candi-
date for appointment to the marshall
slip Of the northern district. Cooper
Griggs, Of Apalachicola, is also a cam
didate and that gentleman has been
to WASHINGTON and has done some
log rolling to land tn,
Job, but Major Williams is probably
lhe original Woodrow Wilson man In
florida, and he has str"nr endorses
rents. He is a personal friend Of
Iosephus Daniels, havin" served with
hat gentleman in the interior de-
,artment when the latter was clerk
n that department under Hoko

TRANSMITTING

Cabbage, tomatoes and any other
plants raised in hotbed or cold
frame should be transplanted into
freshly spaded, finely crumbled-up
soil, in cloudy or rainy weather, if
possible 1t is well to shade them
from the suns hot rays for day or
so.
If the plant has several leaves cut
at least a third of the foliage off.
This will prevent willing and new
leaves will soon start. Use bibber
or sharpened stick, thrust into the
soil, place roots of plant in hole and
cover by pressing the soil firmly with
hand or foot.
While plants should be well water
ed before removing them from hot
bed or cold frame to retain as much
of the soil around the roots as pos
sible, they should not be watered
when transplanted.
If watering is necessary is should
be done at night time and the ground
stirred up next morning as soon as

PICTURESQUE HAVANA.
A Foreign City In Every Sense, With
Its Own Odd Charm.

Americans driving to their hotel
through Havana's narrow, noisy streets
invariably exclaim that it seems to

duestion-tO borrow phrase from the
widely travelled but Unconditional Mr..
Baedeker-''need not detain them long"
They are abroad. Havana is not mere
" like a foreign town." it is a foreign
town. 1t has its own odd look, its spe-
cial picturesqueness, its own tumultu-
Gus life. 1t abOunds in unknown dishes
and strange fruits. and upon the hot
tropic night it pours out half barbaric
music ard queer melancholy songs.
The long traditions of the Spanish
dominion of the two Americas still
cling about Havana's fortresses and
the palaces, churches and mOnasteries
of her ancient streets. She was
proud. rich city, the entrepOt of the
west, when our northern mainland was
a wilderness. And now in the Cuban
twentieth century she is a crowded,
thriving, gay metropolis, with her OWL
pride, her own trOpic airs and graces-
her own wholly un-American individu'
ality.
She may be crowded in the brief
