FLORIDA DEMOCRATS
GIVE NOTICE

The worm Is about to turn. Indi-

the following:

riff on citrus fruits to a point that

resolution adopted by the directors
of the exchange. The Florida grow
ers are angered over treatment &C.

This looks like business. The ex-
ought to be followed by Democrats in

tries are menaced with destruction

the interests Of the cane and rice
growers; the Democrats Of Texas, in

Democrats Not Harmonious

we're not always harmonious. For

Senator Bacon, the senior Democratic
senator, from the position to which
he was rightfully entitled. The same
may be said of Senator Martin and
also of Senator Tillman, whose serv.

of the appropriations committee.

Scenes of "The Woman" Story

so the opposing faction attempts to
wreck Standish's career by delving in

They find that years ago he had

the woman. They try to wrest it from

she is adamant At the end of the
grilling the woman who committed the

Gripping in its big scenes and adroit-

the lobby of Washington hotel, and,
for the sentimental interest, and incl

her and young Blake.
The Woman is one of the greatest

the dialogue is at all times natural

man, will play young Blake.
