Washington, Feb. Rear Admir-

naval committee today that battle
ship construction costs navy yards
were greater than at private plants,
but that as a matter of policy it was
better for the government to divide

Cattle Tick Should be
Driven From West Florida

Driven From West Florida.
West Florida Is destined some day
20 be the greatest cattle raising sec
ton OF the South. Tt possesses every
natural advantage and cattle raisers
and farmers are beginning to realize
this fact.
But before amy progress can be
made the cattle tick must go. Profit
abIs cattle raising and the tick do not
go together. Where the former exists
the tick has been eradicated and
where the tick fourfshes there are
no fine cattle.
The eradication Of the tick Is es-
sentfal to the development Of sound
agricultural system in West Florida.
With the tick out Of the way the
South can produce cattle free from
many Of the handfcaps possessed by
other sections. The pasture season is
long, feed can be produced at mini
mum cost and only inexpensive shell
ter in the winter is necessary.
But this can never be as long as
The counties of West Florida are I'M
Tested with the cattle tick. It sucks
from every animal on which it lives
blood that could be sold for meat, or
which would go to make milk. It
irritates cattle, keeps them from turn
ing grass and feed into flesh and
milk. Tt gives them Texas fever, from
which even the native cattle some
times die and which is almost GER
tain to cause the death Of imported
stock.
The tick prevents cattle being
Ehipped to the large markets, thus
compelling the farmer and cattle
raiser to market at home, and tickey
cattle are worth less at home than
free cattle. The tick, by keeping down
farm profits, keeps down the value of
farm land. The tick is an enemy of
the farmer, the banker, merchant and
all the people.
There is no reason why the counties
Of West Florida should support the
tick. One-third of the area where the
tick formerly thrived has conclusively
proven that every county can solve
the problem at nominal cost All
that is necessary Is to dip cattle
Dipping watts should be located In
every community in West Florida.
The cost is nominal and the arsenical
bath win kill the ticks, enable the cat
tie to thrive, take on more flesh and
produce more milk. The Increase in
the value Of the hides alone win more
than pay the cost of dipping, for the
bath can be given and cattle freed
from dick at total cost of less than
fffty.ce per head.
It requires, experts tell us, less
than ayear to rid a county of the tick,
provided all cattle owners work to-
gether. Fine cattle can then be i'm
ported and West Florida can go for
ward by leaps and bounds until it
becomes great meat producing sec
ton.
Escambia county has started a
campaign for tick eradication. Sew
eral vats have been constructed and
others are contemplated. The board
of county commissioners will be asked
TO aid by donating the cement and
SO for other material needed for each
vat, the people of the community in
which It is placed to perform the
labor.
Every county board in West Flor
ida should adopt some such method
of aiding in the work. It will be
money well spent. Now is the time to
begin.

The Miner has been a consistent and

portation for the Beaver creek and

district, and, in common with all citi-

the construction of branch up
Beaver creek will soon be actually
under way The enormous mineral
deposits of the section to be served

In spite of the uncertainty of rail-
road transportation, development work
has slowly but steadily progressed on

words. Now for the deeds. During

The Hector Mining company is now

now on the way. and Manager Arthur
George expects it to arrive in time to

tending the crosscut to the Wonder
vein has been suspended pending the

Wonder vein is parallel to the Hector

drive 1900 feet to reach 1t. In the
meantime drifting continues west on

suits. A little ore, both lead and
zinc, is found continuously and great
confidence is felt that this big under
taking will yet be rewarded with a
great ore shoot.

Since substituting a new electric
hoist in place of the one run by gaso-
line, much better progress has been
made sinking the shaft on the Sunset
mine. The shaft is now down 500 feet
and station is being cut preparatory
to prosecuting to the vein. The vein
has been quite extensively explored on
the 200, 400 and 600 levels, on all of
which the showing of ore Is reported
to be very satisfactory. If equally
good results are developed on the 500,
1t is regarded probable that tunnel
will be run from the Beaver creek
side which will open the mine at great
depth. However, no official informa-
ton has been given out on the sub
ject. The fact that railroad to that
section Is now an assured fact gives
strength to the belief that deep de-

EDlsoN's OPINION.
lGoodWin's Weekly

| "C0hIy.J
Thomas A. Edison was disappointed
because Colonel Roosevelt was not
nominated for president and is out
now for Wilson, and supplies a state
ment giving his reasons for his course,
which reasons the democracy are cir
culating as important campaign mat
erial.
The first thought awakened is, when
did anything that Mr.. Edison ever
said or did, outside of his profession
carry anything like authority to any
thinking man? He has made some
most important electrical inventions
and has from time to time promised
a great many more which have never
naterialized, but when did he become
a political authority, and what has he
ever said or done to single himself out
from the masses of his countrymen as
gentleman whose political ideas were
either wise or worth noting, or essen
TALLY different from one of his own
talking machines?
He writes as one who for a long
time has held his ear to the ground
and knows whereof he speaks The
trouble is, he has the misfortune to
be very deaf and the sounds that come
t. him are confused.
All the reasons he gives for his pre-
sent position are stale and flabby, and
many of them have no foundation in
fact, but If they suit him, all right,
but to assume that his opinions are
worth one penny more than those of
any ordinary citizen who loves his
country, Is to make a mistake

Of the mining property on Sunset and
Beaver creek is held by practical men
of large means who are in position to
undertake development on a large
scale and who will no doubt become
more active now that a railroad will
afford means for marketing their pro-
duct. But more important still Is the
benefit that will come to the owners
OF valuable mining ground by individ-
uas and companies who have not the
means for extensive operations. These
will now find it easy to induce capital
to come to their assistance. There are
numerous properties thus held which
would have long since attracted capt.
tai had transportation been available.
and the coming of Beaver creek branch
viii bring to them the financial sup
port they merit.
Taken altogether, the outlook for
Sunset and Beaver could hardly be

STATE TREASURER EAGLESoN
AND HIS ENDORSEMENT,

1t Is seldom that a candidate for
state office receives such a decisive
vote of confidence as that extended to
John W. Eagleson, state treasurer in
the recent primary A letter from him
expresses his great appreciation for
the high testimonial ana requests the
Miner to make public acknowledges
ment of the same. Indications are
that Mr. Eagleson has carried every
county in the state and that he has
been nominated by two to one vote.
Mr. Eagleson took charge of the
state treasurer's office following the
Allen scandal, and from the first day
he entered the office he displayed un-
usual ability in bringing order out of
chaos, and in devising system for
handling the large financial affairs of
the state that practically protects the
public funds from raid by crooked OFF,
Gals Under his administration his
Office Is model for efficiency, and the
record of every separate fund Is kept

ton may be determined at any time

A few years ago, when he was not
candidate for office, but instructing
young men who would go out into the
world and take leadership in business
and politics, Woodrow Wilson denoun-
ced labor unions and said that the
usual standard of the employee in our
day is ito give as little as may be for
his wages" When he became a can
didate for Office he changed his line of
talk, whether he changed his real
views or not. 1t will be interesting
to see what Wilson will be saying on

been retired to private life once more

thinks.
