All of Douglas Island and part of Ju. Juneau and Thane is filled with a feel
 ing of excitement because of the Fire. nen's ball at Treadwell tomorrow night. This is really the big social event of the year, and the young girl or Che married woman, maiden lady or widow, who don'tget new dress for this occasion is in hard luck. The Tread we'll Club will be packed and real comfortable dancing will be almost im- possible, but the floor will be swell, the music will be excellent, the decorations grand and lunch good. Many who will make no attempt at dancing will go just to look. And it's really worth while, for, of course, everybody likes to look at the pretty girls, and it is @ matter of fact that you may see more of them at the Firemen's ball than at any other aEent during the entire year.

AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT

AS we glance over the world to :
day and note the progress along
agricultural lines, we are impressed
with the great advancement that Is
being made in not only the raising
OF products but in the marketing of
them as we'll.
BY a scientific study of conditions
a farmer succeeds in raising twice
as much on his farm this year as
last at the same cost, thus doubling
his apparent profit. However, un .
less he knows how to market his
crop his labor has been in vain, for
TIE packing, grading. ETC.. are as
Important as the producing. II he
would obtain the highest prices, and
the railroad facilities also must be
considered. Many crop of peaches
or melons has gone to decay through
failure to anticipate conditions and
plan ahead.
Soon the MARKETS OF THE
WORLD will be open to Southern
planters through the opening of the
Panama canal. but it Is generally
conceded that Of all the States in
the Union, Florida will be the most
benefited by this vast enterprise.
What do You know about this
great achievement Are you inter-
ested in thing which means so
much to yourself and to your state?

The intelligent, fair minded man
who meets Governor Trammell per
sonally and listens to his temperate,
thoughtful and conscientious way OF
discussing public questions, is sure
to note his evident desire to get at
the right of every issue and do his
duty without favoritism, and con-
sequently he carries away a good
impression of the chief executive OF
Florida. He was in Miami last
week and the Herald of that city
speaks Of him as follows:
Governor Trammell made a fine
impression upon the people of Mi
ami while in the city this week
Heretofore the governor was either
on a political jaunt or attending te
state business while in the city.
This time he came on an errand thai
brought him much nearer the peo'
pie, and the effect was gratifying te
Miami and Dade county people and
probably, also, to the governor.

The following from the st. Pet

ter we like to read in the papers,
for a hearty, genial, old soldier who
has outlived the hates of war and
all the shriveling prejudices and
preposterous fictions sprung from
that poisonous soil, and is able to
meet his former foes as a kindly,
tactful, courteous gentleman, is a
good man to shake hands with and
q healthy object lesson in any COM
munity in this country. The most
ferocious individuals we have met,
both North and South, since the
civil war, warriors of the never,
no, never forgive" kind, have almost
invariably been those, who did little
or no fighting during the conflict
itself and have been professional"
veterans ever since. Here is what
the Times says:
Capt. ]. X. Gowdy, ex-soldier
of the Union army and former
American consular general to Paris,
France, cannot say too much in re-
gard to the warm welcome he has
been afforded by ex-confederate
soldiers here in the South
"Tt does my old heart good,
said Captain Gowdy yesterday, to
live to see the day when l can come
south and shake the hands of the ex-
Confederate boys in bonds of true
friendship. We are now united as
we never were before. have never
met more courteous people than the
southerners. Only the other day.

federate soldier, who recognized me

over the old times and and nave
