EDWIN SPENCER, JR.,
COMES OUT DOR
STOCKTON

Put me down for John n. c. Stock
ton for the United States senate; he
should win and l believe he will win"
Edwin Spencer, Jr., of Ocala, who
was a leader in the house of repre-
sentatives at the last session, despite
the fact that he is only % years old,
visited the Metropolis office today,
and the first statement he made is
given above.
Sentiment hasn't crystalized fully
down in our section, but Stockton is
stronger than ever in Marion county,
in which he has always commanded
heavy support" said the youthful leg
islator. mir. Stockton has not been
fairly treated in the past, but | am
sure that the future holds better
things in store for him."
One of the most important and eff
fective measures passed by Mr.. Spen-
Ger at the recent session was the long
and short haul freight rate bill, which
he succeeded in getting through both
senate and house, without an oppos-
ing vote. This bill makes it impera-
tive for the railroads to show the rail-
road commission that their rates are
just, and gives that body power to put
just rates into effect.
Owing to Spencer's legal ability and
to the further fact that he was one
of Governor TrammelPs floor leaders
in the house, considerable surprise
has been exprepssed at the fact that
the governor recently appointed Geo.
w. Scofeld of Inverness, a compare
lively unknown man, as states attor-
ney of that circuit, in place of Spen-
Ger.
Politicians declare that Trammell
overlooked Spencer's ability adm SER
vices for one or two reasons, the first
that he intends to run against Con-
gresham Stephen NJ. Sparkman and
wants the support of Scofield's friend
in Citrus county, while Marion, Spen-
GERS home, has been transferred to
the second district.
The second reason given is that
Spencer did not look with favor upon
the governors bill affecting the con.
vict lease system. That the govern
or's bill was defective was hown by
the manner in which it was slaugh-
tered by amendments in the senate,
and then killed in favor of a better
measure, which is now in force.
Spencer was never given full cred
it for his part in the drawing and
passage of this bill, which came from
a joint senate and house committee,
but the fact is that many of the most
important features of the measure
were injected at his suggestion.
Spencer refused to discuss his fail
ure to secure the states attorneyship.

to take the liquor business out of
the hands of these men you know

tigers and bootleggers. You are
asked to experiment, in the dullest
year Ocala has had since the period
when the orange industry was wiped
out. The phosphate mines are
either closed or working small crews,
the price of lumber and turpentine
is at the lowest. Perhaps our dry
friends do not realize the fact that
this business that they ere trying to
drive out of LEGAL existence has
something to do with the general
prosperity OF the city. The pay roll
for labor amounts to $40, 160 per
year; the city, county and state are
paid for license and taxes 1888
each year, the sum of $3.50 is paid
out each year for lights and ice,
while the rents paid amount to $12,-
600. This amounts to $42,333. If
this amount is taken out of the gen.
era1 business of Ocala at the present
time, what Is going to take its place?

twenty-five years, for the reason that
it has not been wet to go dry. The

Hood River, Ore.--"ln the forest
reserve between the headwaters Of the
west fork of Hood river and the
Bull Run lake are some large trees,
bigger than any have ever seen
anywhere else In the northwest" said
George T. Prather. a pioneer news.
paper man and orchardist Of the Hood
River valley.
my attention was first called to the
giants OF the forest about fifteen years
ago by L. Ferdinand Floss of Latour-
ellie, who made visit every summer
to the northwest base OF Mount Hood.
Mr.. Floss at that time had a COM
munication In the Oregonian relative
to the trees"
The trees are said to be several hun.
dred feet high anG to stand on the
fiat OF hidden canyon. Steep bluffs
on either hand shut in the gorge In
which they rear themselves, and this
reason is given for failure of those
who fish In the Lost Lake district
to have found the trees There are

Several most interesting discoveries
have been made In connection with
the artesian waters OF recent years.
One was that the constituent elements
In some OF the higher and lower lev
els In the same well differ very con.
siderably. the former being generally
Injurious and the latter beneficial to
vegetable growth. The injurious eff.
fects Of the higher level waters are
attributed to an alkali which com.
bines with clay to form a substance
known as difiusible colloid. which
expands in soil treated with these
waters, blocks the pores and renders
the soil unfit for agriculture. Hence
the bad reputation Of artesian waters
as an irrigant for agricultural pur.
poses. But this difficulty can be
overcome by constructing the wells in
such way as to enable the beneficial
waters at the lower depth to be tap.

ones at the upper level.
