help for the agricultural interests
of the country, but it would result
in a great reduction in both feder-
al and state taxes-provided al
ways that the system be faithfully
and honestly administered.
The only objection that can be
urged against it is that it would
present opportunities for graft
by the state officials specially IN
trusted with the administration OF
the fund. This could be guarded
against, however, by the adoption
of wise rules and regulations and
by imposing upon the administra-
tors certain qualifications and pre-
scribing severe penalties for any
species of dishonesty on their part.

Mathews Fine Financial Scheme

In the course of an editorial Wig
orously condemning our new cur
rency system, Hon. Geo. G. Math-
ews, editor Of the Fort Lauderdale
Sentinel, suggests financial
scheme to aid farmers which
should have serious consideration
by all who are interested in the
matter of rural credits. He says
If the government really wish.
ed to help the masses of our peo-
pie why not make each state de-
pository for money issued by the
government for the relief of the
farmers and other producing
tlasses of our people? If we had
absolute power and could shape
the financial policy of the govern
ment, we would issue greenbacks
in sufficient quantity to supply the
needs of all the people. We would
place this money with the various
states according to population.
We would charge two per cent
for the use of the money, and the
state could lend the money to
farmers at four per cent. To get
this money the farmer would be
required to have real estate of
double the value of the amount
asked for; and no man who did
not have reputation for good
habits, honesty and business sa-
gacity, could get a loan. "
" y n Establish the above
named system where the state
would become responsible for
credit extended by the Federal
Government, it would solve the
whole financial question. 1t would
supply half the revenue needed to
support the state government and
thereby reduce taxes one half. +"
This appears to be the best pro-
position yet made for the benefit
of the farmers and the state tax
payers in general. 1t might be a
mended so as to require the state
to pay the general government
three per cent. and charge the
farmers six per cent. That would
not only provide easy and vast

Judge Alfred B. Quinton of To-

made in Miami, synopsis OF
which, taken from the Miami Me-
tropolis, appears elsewhere in The
Herald, argued that the fire in
surance trust, which has been
robbing the people of Florida for
many years, is amendable to the
federal antitrust laws. We are
afraid that the judge is mistaken ;
else, this merciless robber would
have been prosecuted long ago.
Indeed, within the past year or
two, we saw it stated in some
newspaper that an attempt had
been made to prosecute this III
surance trust in a federal court
and the court held that in this
case the Sherman Antitrust Act
did not apply, because that act
prohibited only combinations in
restraint of trade" and that the
insurance companies were not en-,
gagged in Grade" within The
meaning of the act. If this be So
the act should be amended to
make it apply to them, and we
hope that there will be an effec-
tive demand upon congress to en-
act the necessary amendment,

Not a Laughing Matter

The newspapers which are treat
ing as a joke the candidacy of Rev
Sidney j. Cats of DeFuniak
Springs, who is running for gov
ernor, are making serious mis-
take. Wherever Mr.. Cats speaks,
he gains votes; and as he has al
ready made speeches in some three
hundred places in the state, it may
be concluded that he will not be
fourth man in the race.
AT Wauchula, for instance, he
made a speech to a large crowd
and, next day, it was easy to find
Cats voters on the streets and in
the barber shops. So great was
the impression that he made, so
much was the talk about him, that
a large number of people who did
not hear him petitioned for him
to come back and repeat his
speech, and it is reported that he
consented.
1t is a fact that he won voters
at Punta Gorda, Arcadia and at all
other places at which he spoke in
this section; and, being a man of
fine presence and unusual oratori-
cal ability, he is certain to get
votes wherever he makes a speech.
He is a Baptist preacher, as is well
known, and he usually introduces
himself to a community by inst
preaching an excellent sermon in
! the local church and, next day or
night, he delivers his political
Grafton, He is a polished, forceful
speaker and is a well Informed
man.
He has a good deal to say about
the alleged interference of the
Roman Catholic church in the 20
litical and business affairs of the
country; and, being a minister of
the Baptist church, which is noted
for its vigorous opposition to the
Catholics, he is very likely to get
a big vote from his own denomina-
ton, which will make him a form
lidable candidate.
One of his competitors for the
gubernatorial nomination, Hon.
VIM. V. Knott, is also a Baptist.
but not one of the militant kind
and by no means the equal of Mr..
Cats in oratory. The latter is,
therefore, likely to get more Bap-
fist votes than will Mr.. Knott, and
he will get many other votes, too,
unless Messrs. Knott, Hudson and
Farris exert themselves quickly
and theoretically to convice the
people that Mr.. Cats is not the
right man for governor of Florida.
This they can do and they ought
to do it in the interest of the peace
and future progress of the state.
They should get a copy Of Mr..
Catts's speech and study it and ex-
pose the errors that ought to be
exposed.
The opposing candidates should
also procure and give wide circu-
lation to a challenge issued to Mr..
Cats by the Knights of Columbus
of San Antonio, Fla, in which
they categorically deny every one
of the charges which he makes a
gainst that order and against the
Catholic church and offer to give
$4,000 cash to any worthy chart
ty if Mr.. Cats will prove a single
one of his charges.
The Herald is emphatically OPP
posed to Mr.. Catts's candidacy, be
cause it honestly believes that, if
he should be elected governor, he
would be another Cole Blease, and
his administration would disturb
