TEMPLE AND
THE TARIFF.

Here is what Editor J. H. Reese
of the Kissimmee Gazette has to say
regarding William Chase Temples at
titude on the protective tariff in its
relations to the Florida citrus indus
Try:
The Orange County Citizen took thc
trouble to write to William Chase
Temple of the Citrus Exchange ana
send him the Gazette editorial cor
corning that gentleman's testimony
before the ways and means COMMIT
tee. The Citizen wanted Mr.. Temple
to say that the Gazette had misrepre
sented him. Mr.. Temple wouldn't
say so and the Citizen then said 50
tself by referring to the article as a
Misleading Editorial"
We find upon careful scrutiny thai
the only excuse the Citizen has for
making such a statement is the Ge-
zette's statement hat Mr. Temple
asked for the protection of his own
Investments in the citrus industry,
lggregating quarter of million.
whereas Mr.. William Chase Tempt"
asserted himself to be a philanthro
DIST, and asked protection for the en-
ire industry and not for himself.
This is distinction that does not
the least change the situation; it Is
he distinction between tWeedlede
md tweedledum. Just for the fun q
he thing we should like to see the
Orange County Citizen and Mr.. Will
| lam Chase Temple engage IN Jolnt
lebate and explain how Mr.. Temple
Gould plead for the protection Of the
entire citrus industry without asking
or protection of his own interest

misunderstood in it's contention foi

ed in this weeks issue of Dixie, and
hope that it will perform its mis-
sion in an educational degree, so that
it will knock at the reason and con-
science of not only every member OF
the Legislature Of Florida soon to
sit in the session of 1913, but will
carry conviction to, all the people of
the State of Florida that this is a
just and proper claim to be yet rec
ognized.
No matter what Sidney l. Wales
did in his declining years, by his
necessities to accept twenty-five
thousand dollars in full settlement OF
his claims, that is no reason why the
State of Florida should be guilty OF
repudiating its solemn contract.
1t is never too late to make amends

Chronologically, Lent is not
continuous whole. Wilderness iaSt'
temptation and victory lie years away
from the Passion week. Yet inc es
sence of the whole is one. And mat
essence is in this text. The Humllia'
tion of Christ is LentS oVermaSter,,
ing theme. That the Amounted
should abdicate His crown, empty
Himself of His glory, lay aside ms
scepter, and quit His throne; that ne
should be born into our low estate
under the law; that he should under
90 the miseries of this mortal NE,
the wrath of God against sin, and the
cursed death of the cross; that he
should be buried and continue under
the captivity of death for time
this is the deep humiliation OF inc
Christ. II subjected Him TO ignoml,
ny, to insult, TO shame, to taunts OF
weakness, 10 the wrongs OF Inc
wicked ones. And yet, TO say all
this does not measure fully NOR can
words measured tn deeps OF His hu'
initiation. We can appreciate it on.
" as we appreciate what happened
when Jehovah caused all our iniqui-
ties TO meet on His sacred head in
one cruciiying blow that sunk Him
10 the depths OF the grave. ms
depth of humiliation of Jesus meas
ure the depth of mans fall into sin.
GLOW deep did you go?" asked an

more lad than alive, had staggered

deep did we CO. half Sneered the
captain, impatient OF such question
at such time; deep enough to get
the men," That's what Jesus did.
He came down deep enough to gel
the publican, the harlot, the chief oil
sinners.
And he did il freely. ''Iie hum
bled Himself" He was not driven
into it. He did ii freely.
| And why? To seek and TO save
that which was lost. And ii we
would truly share in the Lenter

GAMBLERS OF HIGH POSITION
Great Ladies' of England Formerly
Played Continually and for the
Highest Stakes.

A little over century ago there
were hundreds of great ladies in Eng
land who made their drawing rooms
regular gambling dens, and many in
the most exalted social positions lost,
or won as the case might be, thou
sands of dollars in a single nights
play. The royal princesses did not
hesitate to play for the highest stakes
and a faro bank was a portion of the
paraphernalia of Dame Fashion.
Queen Elizabeth was fond of cards,
but she was inclined to be somewhat
peevish and lost her temper at the
game. Mary, Queen of the Scots,
carried her infatuation to the extent
of wagering her personal attire on a
game. She would play continually
from Saturday to Monday, and sac
rifice her wardrobe, if necessary, to
do so. Queen Ann of Austria was
fairly pursued by i'll luck, We are
told, but she is said to have played
without passion or greed.
Anne Boleyn was an inveterate
! gambler, as were all the wives of
henry VIII, with one exception
Catherine of Aragon did not gamble,
as she had no love for the card ia.
BILE. Nell Gwyn lost 400 guinness one
night to the niece of a notorious gam
! bier Mazarin, who afterward died in
/ solvent, having lost at cards an en-.
ormous fortune left to her by her
/ cardinal uncle. Cards are still popu.
lar among the hostesses of many of
the English drawing rooms, but not
to the extent they were a century

OF marvel or surprise,
Assured alone that life and death
His mercy underlies.
And if my heart and flesh are weak
To bear an untried pain,
The bruised reed He will not break,
But strengthen and sustain.
No offering of my own l have,
Nor words my faith TO prove;
can but give the gifts He gave,
And plead his love for love.
And so beside the Silent Sea
wait the muifled oar;
No harm from Him can come 10 me
On ocean or on shore.
