General E. Nj. Law of Barlow Is
now the highest ranking officer of the
survivors of the "Lost Cause" He
was recently the guest OF honor or
the Father Ryan Chapter Daughters
of the Confederacy of Barlow and
was the subject of several very greece
full eulogies. In responding to them
General Law delivered a very touch
ing address from which we make the
following extract:
Last summer it was my privilege
after an absence OF fifty years to
visit the scenes of that terrible con.
fiict around Gettysburg, and view the
wonderful sight of $4,000 veterans en-
camped on the old battle field and
talk with many who participated in
that fierce struggle. All feelings OF
enmity had vanished and the blue and
gray greeted each other with hand
clasps as warm and feelings as ten
der as the conflict had been fierce
just fifty years before.
During that meeting two honorary
presidents were appointed, one from
the far north and one from the ex-
treme south, Gen. Chamberlain being
from Maine and myself from Sunny
Florida. Since that time Gen. Cham
berlain has passed away. Only a
few months ago Gen. Buckner OF
Kentucky, lieutenant general Of the
Confederacy, died and this leaves me
the senior officer now living.

SLANT BoRLAND's FINE GRAPE
FRUIT TREE

There are some fine groves along
the river. In that of ID. s. Borland
there are grapefruit seedlings trees
said to be more than rs years old,
and measure IS inches in circum-
ference at the butt. 1t would require
40-foot ladder to pick the uppermost
fruit One of these trees has the repu-
tation of bearing so boxes of mer-
chantable grapefruit per season. One
year this tree bore So boxes that
were sold on the tree at IS per box.
and another season they were shipped
to New York at price slightly high
er and re-shipped from there to Henry
NJ. Flagler's hotels situated on the
east coast of Florida at a price said
to be SIC per box, although this was
at the period when grapefruit was
first coming into prominence. A few
years before many of these large trees
were cut down to make room for or
ange trees, as the only use at that
time for grapefruit was to eliminate
the thirst of cattlemen or fishermen.
Four acres of young grapefruit trees
in Mr. Borland's grove a few seasons
ago bore 1000 boxes of fruit, which
sold at 81 per box T. o. b. his packing
house.-Florida Grower.

the Union, it is no Reputation for
the state to fail or refuse to pay
them"
At the conclusion of his article
Judge Whitfield very properly and
truthfully states that ''the state of
Florida has never repudiated, scaled,
readjusted, defaulted or delayed the
payment of any part of her public
debt, either principal or interest,"
The total bonded debt of the state
is only $601, ,567, all of which is held
by the educational funds of the state,
every warrant issued is at par upon
presentation, and l feel no hesitancy
in making the assertion that no state
in the Union is in better condition fl
nancially than Florida.
Very respectfully,

cOMMANDER w. w. HARRIS!
BUSY

General w. w. Harriss, command
er of the John NJ. Martin Camp, Sons
of Confederate Veterans of this city,
has been very busy for the past cou-
pie of weeks organizing fourishing
camps in this district.
At Micanopy General Harriss or
ganized splendid camp with thirty
charter members, and with seventy
FIVE on the waiting list.
He has also organized nice camps
az Webster Bushnell and other plac-
es. The idea of this organization,
SAYS General Harriss, is not to engen-
der strife, as many people think, nor
10 keep up any bitter feeling, but it is
to teach the present 'generataion and
the future generations veneration for
their southern ancestry and tradi-
tions, and to correct so many of the
histories that have been written in
late years, and that have so maligned
the south. This is a splendid work,
and in this section General Harriss
Is meeting with splendid encourage
ment and cooperation.
