An Appreciated
"Roast for Two"

Quincy Times: Six years ago Edi-
tor M. F. Hetherington Of the Lake
land Weekly News, started the exper.
iment Of daily afternoon paper in
Lakeland which he called the Tele.
gram. That experiment" now easily
leads among the daily newspapers of
the smaller class in Florida and is
one of the recognized institutions of
Lakeland. There is a peculiar excel.
lence about it, due to the remarkable
ability and fine character of its edi.
tor that gives it real and positive ed.
itorial influence In the Lakeland sec.
ton, and makes it probably the most
quoted paper in the State. But Mr..
Hetherington, highly capable and in.
domitable as he is, hasn't done all
this by himself. There's demure,
blue-eyed little woman of magnetic
personality, Mrs. M. F. Hetherington,
always by his side, who is quite as
talented and efficient in her depart.
ment of the paper as he is in his; ;
and the wonderful team work of
these two makes the Telegram what
1t is and has been from the start
really great little paper firmly es.
tablished in the confidence Of its
community because it is strong and
enduring in all the things that make
the right kind of newspaper an in.
dispensable institution. We have
just received a copy of the handsome
edition of the Telegram celebrating
its sixth ahniversary-hence this "hot
roast for two"

This paper has repeatedly deplored
the fact that many thousands Of dol.
lars are sent out of the State. for
printing, particularly booklets and
high-class advertising matter. What
ever excuse may have existed for this
practice in the past certainly does
not apply any longer. for Florida
print shops are now equipped to pro-
duce work that will satisfy the most
exact and critical. We are moved
to these observations by an inspec-
tion Of a booklet advertising Lees
burg which lies before us, and which
is equal to anything in the line Of
the printers art that we have seen
come from the big print shops of the
North. The booklet, in its entirety,
was produced by the publishers of
the Leesburg Commercial, and it is
marvel of mechanical skill and
beauty, and forms a magnificent ad.
verdsement for Leesburg.

Dear Mr.. Collins-It is good to know
that your plans for the future con
template extensive advertising OF
your products as soon as these are
put on the market, and as funds are
available.
We feel that you are working
along the right line and that even
tua]ly you will put the thing over in
big way. With your factory p-ac
tically completed and actually oper
ating, it should be much easier to in
terest capital than at any preceding s
stage. Certainly conditions were
never more favorable for building UP
a demand for juices, marmalades and
other fruit products than at present.
We anticipate seeing you before very
long, and in the meantime, wish you
much success.
Very truly yours,
THE THOMAS ADVERTISING

The cornerstone of the Washington
monument was laid on its fine site,
which overlooks Washington, George
town, Arlington and Mount Vernon, by
President Polk July 4, 1S4S. Its mar
BILE shaft rises in all the dignity of un-
adorned simplicity to the height of 555
feet. The base of the shaft is flfty-fve
feet square, and 1t gradually tapers
until at the 500 foot point it has dimin-
ished to less than thirty-fve feet This
monument is said to contain $4,000
blocks OF marble, each two feet thick.
They were lifted on an elevator run by
steam, suspended in an inner frame
work of iron, which was built up at in
teryals, thirty or forty feet at time, In
advance of the surrounding masonry.
The aluminium capstone, nine inches
high, was set In position Dec. 6, 1884,

Organized Labor Out Against the New

New York, July 3l.--With the purpose
OF combating the influence of the new
workmen's council, led by Morris Hill
quit and other Socialists, the American
Alliance for Labor and Democracy be
came real yesterday. Offices are to be
opened at once. Samuel Gompers, presi'
dent of the American Federation of La
Dor, heads the alliance.
Propaganda now being issued by the
Workmen's council, leaders liz the new
alliance declared, is regarded as very
dangerous to the successful prosecution
of the war, in which efficient conduct of
the industrial forces of the nation is es-
sential."
A fight in organized labor is expected
to follow formation of the alliance. Sew
eral labor bodies are identified with the
Workmen's council, among them some
who have fought the election of Gompers
as head of the American Federation of
Labor.

Sporting Notes.

Schneider, the Cincinnati pitcher, ap.
pears to be a promising finger, he hav.
ing won his last nine straight games.
The Chicago White Sox commenced
the most important series of the season
yesterday at Boston, which may decide
who is to hold the supremacy of the
American league. The series commenced
with the Red Sox team two games be
hind Chicago and unless Boston can win
three out of the four scheduled games,
things are going to look pretty serious
for Barry's men.
Judge, the Washington first sacker,
made things lively in Sundays game be-
tween Cleveland and Washington, when
he secured four hits out of four times at
bat, besides having seven putouts and
two assists to his credit
johnson, the Washington star, not
only pitched well in Sundays game be-
tween Cleveland and Washington, but
also secured three triples in five times at
bat.
Roger Peckingpaugh increased his bat
ting average considerably in Saturdays
double header with Chicago, when he Sc
cured six hits in eight times up, five in
row being made in the second encounter.
Walter Ruether, the hard hitting pitch
err of the Chicago National league team,
has been sold to Cincinnati. Ruether
came from the Pacific Coast league.
Speaker, Roth and Chapman of the
Cleveland club are certainly great trio
of base stealers, they having stolen more
than so bases.
