WHAT WILL BE THE ISSUE?

For the past several years the successful candidate
or Governor of Florida has been elected upon di
rect issue espoused by him in presenting his candidacy to
,he people In the contest between Captain Broward and
Colonel Robert W. Davis it the drainage Of the Ev
gades and the opening of that vast body of land to
homestead by the people. Park Tramme elected on
MS personal popularity, probably, but the failure Of his
opponents to wage aggressive campaign doubt
trbuted much to his success. Glchirst the To-
cal option issue as against Statewide prohibition AMI
ats on his fanatical opposition to the Catholics and
promise to cruelty them.
But what of the two great issues that BrOward and
Cats espolsed? Thousands upon thousands of dollars
Of the States money has been spent upon the Ever
gades project and the Glades remain undraned while if
they should be drained not single will be open
to homestead
The Catholics still among u.s. enjoying the right
Of religious belief guaranteed them by the Federal and
State Constitutions and of the Governors has
married sweet Catholic girl and taken her into his faith
trs home Thus the two greatest issues of the past
twenty-five years nullity
What will be the main issue of the candidates for
Governor in 1920? To the editors mind at present it
appears that the issue between Carey Hardee and Van
Swearingen the two leading candidates, will be Conser-
vatism and Radicalism.
The people have had enough of the latter and it is
certainly time they gave the former its inningGanes-

CAPPER SAYS FARMERS
ARE NOT MAKING GOOD
MANY WILL CURTAIL PRODUC.
TON TO THEIR OWN
NEEDS
Middle Men Gouge Them Out of All
of Their Profits-May Mean
Same AS Strike
(By United Press.)

| WASHINGTON, Nov 15.-Farm
ers are having their troubles, too.
Indications point to greatly re.
duced crops next year because OF
this discomfort, according to Sena.
tor Capper, Kansas, publisher of sew
eral agricultural papers.
Farmers are not planning to strike
exactly, but there is a general ex-
pectation that acreage will be great
ly reduced, Capper said in an inter-
view late yesterday.
Low profits, labor shortage, high
wages and rising costs of implements
are some of the reasons assigned.
"The American farmer won't go
on strike but he is getting mighty
sullen," Capper declared. Wheat
acreage will fall off probably one
third next year and the general crops
are going to be smaller.
81 don't think there is any concert
ed movement among the farmers
along this line. No farm organiza-
tions, so far as l know have adopted
resolutions urging a deliberate cur
failing of production. But neverthc-
less, farmers are individually sizing
up the situation and are deciding to
go slowly next year.
- receive many letters daily
from farmers, complaining about
everything. Hog prices are down,
wheat will probably be lower next
year, while labor costs are going up"
EX-soldiers are refusing to go
back to the farms and are flocking
to the cities. Capper asserted. Dur
ing wheat harvest it is almost impos-
sible to get help, he stated. The
farmer is, therefore, turning from
wheat to corn and other crops which
do not require harvesting during a
short period in the middle of the
summer. lie is distributing his crops
so he can do most of the work alone.
Higher bread prices maj result
from the diminished wheat supply
although lower meat prices may off
set this, Capper said.
Far crs will never unite with or
ganized labor" he predicted. Their
economic interests are in conflict"

FAULT OF THE SYSTEM.

In calling attention to the inequalities in the person
al roll The News wishes to dsclam any intention Of
rejecting on any official Of the city especially Assessor
Jarrett The fault lies the system which has not been
revised
We believe it is a good thing that the matter has
been brou- Lit TO a focus. 1t is question OF whether
Or not there should be certain amount realized from per-
sonaI taxes and certain from real estate taxes,
but question Of equal distribution Of the burden. If
the man who pays fifty thousand dollars real estate
and has thousand dollars worth of personal property
he should be assessed the agreed ratio the personal
property If this is uaa. the entire personal tax roll
is unfair.
Assessor jarrett says that the practice heretofore
has been high priced automobiles at mini
mum and cheaper announcer m nmum ana to fix a
general minimum of hundred dollars for personal
taxes Under this system the person assessed hun
dred dollars might be paying at ratio ten times that OF
others.
Council has gone into the matter very thoroughly,
and will adjust these discrepancies in assessments as near
ly equitaby as possible.

be prevailed upon to eat even a
mouthful at meal times. She
was nervous, too-poor child
and would toss, twitch and jump
in her sleep something dreadful.
The doctor said she had adenoids
and throat trouble but we dread
ed to think of an operation and
it was out of the question while
she was still so weak and run

began to vanish. She now sleeps
peacefully nights and her appe-
tite is somewhat improved for
she is eating better than she did.
Her throat trouble is some bet
