CHRISTMAS
R. F. ROGERS,


And she brought forth her first
born son. and wrapped him in swad-
ding clothes and laid him in mang-
er. And there were in the same coun-
try shepherds abiding in the field,
keeping watch oyer their flocks by
night. And, 10, the angel of the Lord
came down upon them, and the glory
of the Lord shone round about them
and they were sore afraid. And the
angel said unto them, Fear not: for,
behold, / bring you good tidings of
great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the
city of David Savior. which is Christ
the Lord. And suddenly there was
with the angel multitude of the
heavenly host praising God, and say
ing, Glory to God in the highest, and
on earth peace, good will toward men!

A PIECE OF FOLLY

Referring to the fact that there is q
demand among the farmers for pro.
lection on peanuts and that a Loulsi-
ana man in a recent address demand
ed duty on cotton the Montgomery
Advertiser says:
They ares logical in one resepct at
lleast-if, when the Republicans ore
drawing their new tariff bill next
spriE.g and summer, they decide to put
tariff on manufactured cotton goods,
they should certainly put tariff on
cotton imported from other countries.
Not the least of the sound objection
to a high protective tariff policy is
that it is always marked by indefen-
sible determinations 1t would
only following precedent for in
stance, if the Republicans gave cotton
manufactured goods protective tariff
and left it off raw cotton, peanuts
any other agricultural product which
comes direct from the producer.
I OF course if tariff were written
that would give equal protection to
every man in the country it would not
be unjust-it would be only foolish. Il
would increase all prices, increase all
earnings and all expenditures equally.
The dollar would be the only thing it
would discriminate against. But
while in it's relations to individual
Americans, it would not discriminate,
it would have the effect of shutting
this country out of foreign markets by
increasing the cost of production here.
But such a tariff could not be writ
ten. 1t would tax wage earners and
salaried men and professional men
without giving them any compensa-
ton and even the majority of our pro-
ducers would get nothing out of it
while paying more for many of the
things they buy.
1t would be unspeakable folly for
the cotton growers to demand protec-
ton on cotton, for a duty would not
raise the price one cent bale More
than half the cotton grown in this
country is exported and sold beyond
any tariff wall this country could
build. The cotton exported would fix
the price at home, for there are more
than a million cotton growers and
they could not combine to exact a
higher price from the home manufac-
turers than from the foreigners and
no tariff could be written that would
add to the price paid for cotton
abroad. But there are comparatively
few manufacturers of cotton goods and
they can combine to hold up the price
and they do. They would get out of
the tariff all it protested to give and
the cotton growers could not possibly
get one cent out of it-Times- Union.

THE ELECTION AND THE LEAGUE

We are not of those who interpret
the recent election as the reputation
by the American people of the ideal of
League of Nations for the adjudica-
ton OF international issues and the
preservation of peace. On the contra
ry, we are confident that there will be
such league and that America will
be in it as an important factor. The
President-elect has repeatedly pledged
himself to the idea of Fan association
of nations" for this purpose, and i'm
mediately after his election announc-
ed that he will soon call conference
of leading Americans to help work out
such plan.
Just what form the league will take
and how effective it will be, no one
can say. We can hardly hope that at
first it will be and do all that we so
devoutly desire. But that the ideal
will live and grow and ultimately dom
mate the globe we feel absolutely
sure. Whatever may be the temper
airy eclipse of President Wilson's fame
the league will live, and with it will
live the name of Wilson

HARDING's "REsT MINDS

World is told, are three Democrats. .
James A. Reed of Missouri. bitter

Woodrow Wilson, who was denied a
seat in the Democratic convention at
San Francisco, and who labored
against Governor Cox in the campaign.
John X. Shields of Tennessee, bit
ter-ender of the peace treaty and con-
sistently against the Democratic
party's stand on this issue.
Atlee Pomerene of Ohio, who by vir-
tue of his residence Mr.. Harding prob
ably believes is not likely to be OBJ
streperous to any alarming extent.
All these are senators who have
long been associated with the presi-
dent-elect. He knows full well that
two of them do not, by the widest
stretch OF the imagination. qualify to
speak for the Democratic party on the
issue OF the league of nations. He
knows, too, that. one Of them barely

CUTTING DOWN THE soUTH,s
. REPRESENTATION

Washington. dispatches tell us that
Representative Tinkham Of Massa-l
chusetts, is going to make an effort
to reduce the South's representation
In the house of representatives.
Well, there is some satisfaction IN
knowing that Mr. Tinkham, and those
who think with him. can not prevent
the South from controlling her state,
county and city governments, and if
its vote in the nation is not potential
enough to count in the presidential
elections, what boots tito her if her
representation is great or small?
1t reminds US of the little girl who
possessed nickel and went into a
store to separate herself from it.
She first wanted to purchase a coca
cola but was told that the price was
5 cents plus the war tax; she next
asked for an ice cream cone, and
again was told that the price was 5
cents plus the war tax, and 50 was
every article she named
So when reaching the door upon her
leaving the store she was called back
by the obliging clerk and was inform
ed that she had left her nickel on the
counter.
Well, she said: Il don't want it

it won't buy anything"
So what. boots it to the South if her
representation is cut down if her vote
in national affairs is not potential
enough to count in presidential cleo
ton or in shaping needful legislation
in the congress?

The BANNER FALLS INTO AN
ERROR

III referring to a political marriage
that was staged as one Of the princi-
pal attractions at the Ocala Semi
Tropical Exposition in 1890 between
Col. Bob Davis, now editor of the
Gainesville Sun, and Col Bob Rogers,
now postmaster of Ocala, this paper
fell into an error in saying that Col.
Rogers, as the "blushing BRIDE repre-
scented the populist party.
Col. Rogers at the time was presi-
dent of the Farmers Alliance and, as
the bride, represented that organiza-
ton while Col. Davis represented the
democratic organization
Political parties in the state were
more evinly divided than at the pres
ent time, so the event was hailed as
laudabIe and significant affair. It was
made q great state occasion and was
witnessed by large concourse of peo-
pie and congratulations and good
wishes were showered upon the CON
tracing parties. as politically speak
ing, it was looked upon as harbinger
Of better times.
1t was rot until two years after
wards that the Farmers Alliance was
merged into the Populist party.
Governor Frank Fleming, in his
Memoirs of Florida, page $50 says:
"A state organization of the peo-
pies party, commonly known as Popu-
lists, growing out of the Farmers AL
lance movement, which had been
strong in the state, was made in Ocala
on February Sth, 1892, and subsequent
ly put in nomination state and nation
al tickets"
1t was to prevent just such an out
come that the marriage between the
Democratic party and the Farmers
Alliance was staged and was hailed
with so much delight.
/ Col. Rogers says that he never vot-
ed any other than the democratic
ticket in all his life and is to be COM
mended for his course and this paper
takes pleasure in correcting the error
and in making the amende honorable.

of the groom and Col. Bob Rogers rep
resentfng the populist party, acted the
role of the blushing BRIDE

the correction by giving this space as

At the meeting you refer to I was
president of the State Farmers ALI
ance and represented that organiza-
ton and not the Populist party. /
never have knowingly voted Popu-
list~ticket and never belonged to nor
represented that party.
All this is a matter of small import
but as / near the foot of the hill in

record straight politically.
The Populist party was not known
in Florida until in the campaign Of

you refer to was at a congressional
convention pryor to the campaign of
that year and held in Ocala.
