Our AttOrney-G General

Up at Tallahassee there is a quiet
good-looking, able young man named
Thomas F. West. Everybody, or near.
ly everybody in Florida is his friend
Tom West has made good as attor.
ney-general. He has filled-is filling
"a big office in a big way. He has
carried two important causes to a
satisfactory conclusion for the state
of Florida, both of which will result
in more money in the treasury and
make possible the further reduction of
state taxes.
One of these we commented upon
editorially only recently. 1t was his
successful fight through the state
courts and in the United States Su-
preme curt to prove the states right
to impose percentage tax on gross
income of the Pullman Car Company
derived in Florida. His latest success
is in likewise proving the constitu
tionality of the state law passed in
1913 whereby the state imposed a tax
of per cent upon the gross income
of insurance companies derived from
policyholders in this state.
Some day Tom West is going to ask
the people of the state of Florida for
an even bigger, even if not more i'm
portant, office than he now holds. The
chances are very strong that he will
get what he goes after. He seems
to be built along those lines.-Tampa

Seventy-one years of organized

Methodist preacher was a force in

from Georgia and rode the woods of
this state on horseback, with his sad
dle-bags. He preached the gospel
to the poor. Times have changed.

points heavenward from every town
and city in the State, and its organ

great and growing membership con-

strongly attested than by Bonfort's

organ of the liquor traffic in the Unit
ed States, in its issue of October 25th
last, when it said: 1--WE must realize

A LOGICAL"
CITY'S HOPES.

of Hillsborough county goes dry
Jacksonville may get Tampas clga
factories" screeches a two-columl
head line in Tuesdays Times-Union
And then the story goes on to sa!
that Jacksonville does not rejoice il
the misfortunes of its sister cities
but it is pointed out that when the
latter bring misfortune on themselves
there is no reason under the sun why
this city should not endeavor to reap
every benefit possible therefrom."
Certainly not, but who but the or
gan of the liquor interests of the
State would think of calling the eX-
termination of the saloon "misfor-
tune?"
The Times Union cites Quincy and
Tallahassee as cities which have lost
their cigar manufacturing industries
because the people voted out the sa-
loon. They each had one small cigar
factory.
But it says nothing about Key
Vests big loss of cigar factories.
That city was wet when the industry
was founded and if possible even more
wet when the factories moved away.
This case of Key West is cited mere
ly to show that there may be other
reasons beside the lack of booze for
removal of cigar factories.
Here is Palatka we had one pros
porous cigar factory under the saloon
regime; since the county went dry
three new factories have been added
and the original is bigger and better
than ever.
Admitting that Jacksonville is the
"logical" city for these factories in
case Tampa goes dry and the manu-
facturers decide to abandon their ex-
pensive plants to the bats and owls,
where would they go when Jackson
vile and the balance of the country
goes dry, as they surely will before
very many years? Will they fall
back on hell, and will every one who
desires to smoke a good cigar be
obliged to go to the demnition bow
vows to get it?
The chances are that all these
Times Union arguments have been ad-
vanced by the liquor interests during
the campaign now drawing to a close
in Tampa. And the chances are chat
the arguments have been answered
much better than this paper could !,
hope to do.
But the idea that the extermina- =
ion of the saloon is followed by loss :
If business to a community is an ex-
,loded one. There is too much proof Il
o the contrary, and nothing in the ',
way of facts to back it. Palatka is a
much better city from every point of -
lew since it ousted the saloon. And D
he prosperity of Tampa is not due, =
irectly or indirectly, to this vampire y
