statisricians announce, that there are
sixteen thousand illicit distilleries in
Florida and relatively the same num-
Der in other states, 1t suggests some
really serious reflections Is the
time coming when one half the men
Of the country will be devoting their
time to trying to evade the prohibi-
ton laws and the otner half putting
in their time trying to keep them
from it? And if that time comes, who
will be left to perform those dis
agreeable but still necessary things
generally classified under the name
of work? If a man wants to make
moonshine it takes at least one other
man sitting upsof nights to keep him
from doing it. And there We are.
as the late Mr. Dooley was wont to
remark.

The fact that the Saturday Evening
Post finds it worth while to presen:
an interesting article on the personal
traits of former President Grover
Cleveland, reminds Us that he is an
exception to the general rules that
presidents begin to shrink in great
LESS from. the day they retire from
office. Cleveland went out Of the
White House virtually discredited BY
both parties; but time has so far vim
dictated him that the nation has fully
accepted his monetary views, and, un
less we greatly mistake the sentiment
of the day, it is ready to adopt his tar
if views. He was a statesman and {
man Of superior intelligence and in
yincible moral courage. No list OF thu
four greatest presidents would b.
complete without his name.

HERE'S TO YOU, DADE COUNTY

With a present population of 1871
Dade county shows an increase in the
last decade Of 25s.1 per cent. This
is the largest per centage of increase
registered by any county in the Unit
ed States. Its nearest competitor is
Baca county, California, with an in
crease of 246.6 per cent.
Ii is record of which the whole
state Of Florida can be proud. We ex-
tend congratulations without the
smallest particle Of envy, because We
know that it is a deserved and we'll
earned distinction.
1t is an inspiration as well as local
triumph. Other counties can find
something to emulate and something
to encourage them in Dade's record.
What has been accomplished there
can be achieved elsewhere. With the
proper amount of faith, backed up by
the proper amount Of effort almos.
any county in this state could be made
to show similar increase in the next
ten years.
Dade county had natural advan-
tages galore. But the people didnot sit
still and wait for those advantages to
operate. They worked without ceas-
ing. They risked their money on the
outcome. They put Miami and Dade
county before the world as no other
section Of Florida had ever been pre-
scented before.
Somebody has said, II you can
write a better book, preach better
sermon or make better mousetrap
than your neighbor, though you make
your home in the forest, the world
will make beaten path to your door
That's Dade county.

WHAT 1T Is FOR

The mere size of Harding's cam
paign fund is of less significance than
the sources from which it is raised
When business man signs his
name to a check payable to a cam
paign committee, he frequently re-
CARDS il as an investment, or, at least,
a fair speculation. He expects some
thing in return.
What kind of an investment or
speculation do Harding's contributors
see?
They are betting on a protective
tariff.

The guava crop, just beginning to
ripen, seems to be one Of the largest
In the history of the state. 1t should
not be neglected. 1t can be made one
OF the most valuable and profitable

simple process Of introducing it to a
larger clientele. With the increasing

ether products, it may easily come to
rival the orange as wealth pro-

Secretary Colby's proclamation an
nouncing the ratification of the nine

And the voter who does not grasp
the magnitude of that issue--the pos
sibilities of skinning the public under
high tariff shelter--simply does not
comprehend the most elemental con-
ditions of the present day.
The world is slowly settling back
to normal. Some nations will reach
the old level earlier than others. The
progress of each nation toward that
goal will depend in large measure up
on the manipulations of its business
and financial affairs by its govern
ment.
1t is fair to assume that the de-
pleted and almost bankrupt countries
of Europe and Asia will be first to
cut prices on products. They must
trade at any cost. Under fair inter-
change Of commodities among the ma
lions of the world however, prices
would keep close together, and in a
few years world commerce ould be
once more upon stable basis.
But suppose this country should
surround itself with tariff wall. Its
manufacturers would be in position to
continue present plices indefinitely
They could do as they ahve in the
past establish one price for the
home markets and a much lower one
for foreign Enthusiastically forcing
their own countrymen to pay bonus
on their exports, while they could
prevent American consumers from
sharing in the benefits Of lower priced
foreign goods.
AS the immortal Beriah Sellers
would remark there's millions In ~
and we may be assured that the pa
triots who are tumbling their cur
rency into the Harding pot are not
blind to the main chance. And WI
may also be assured that when Mr.
Harding entertains his front porch
guests with discursive references tt
the tariff, he is not speaking merely
because he feels the weight of thu
Mckinley mantle on his shoulders.
Not for an instant do we accept thu
explanation sometimes offered tina
Florida is afflicted with Cats as {
punishment for past sins. This stat'
may have committed misdemeanors
hut she has never been charged will
felonies deserving Of capital punish
ment. II design is to be predicatsd
it may be found in the hypothesi!
that our affiiction is to show how
much we can stand and yet com,

ever, to regard it as one Of those rar'
accidents which happen once in
