Florida Press Opinion
City in Good Financial Condition.

City in Good Financial Condition.
An interesting report touching the financial con-
dition of the city submitted to the city commits
soners on Tuesday afternoon by City Manager Eu-
gene Masters. This report showed an amount OF
$4,000 Immediately available for the taking up Of
note for that amount that had been negotiated to tide
the city last wear when the license fees from
the sale Of liquor from the operation of automobiles
There is another note for $4,000 due on March 18TH
Taxes are being paid in such volume that this note
will be call for at maturity This will leave the city
absolutely debt free except for the replacement Of
$4,000 borrowed from the sinking fund. This $1,000
will also be replaced and will give the city total
of approximately $4,000 in the sinking fund at the
end of this calendar The $4,000 has been Dor
rowed from the local banks the rate Of interest be-
ing per cent The city is paying itself per cent
probability this sinking fund will be used retire
more of the waterworks bonds, which amount
to s65O00 This that at the end of 1920 should
the sinking fund be applied. the entire outstand
ing indebtedness against ST. Augustine would be
about $4,000 for the waterworks
Another point worthy of mention is that it is cost
ing st. Augustine only about 5A mills for actual
operation 1t can therefore readily be that the
city will be in splendid position to stand small
increased mage for interest and principal in any
bond issue for waterworks sewers, etc. that may be
adopted by the voters.
This showing by the city ought to be source of
satisfaction to all who interested in ST. Angus
tines prosperity.-St Augustine Record.

Too Many Uplifters.

Uplifting is getting altogether too much CONNER
clalIzed. Thousands of them nowadays make a
business of it and draw fat salaries until half the
money donated in hundreds of drives" goes to pay
overhead expense. The country would be much
more benefited if about ten thousand of the up
litter men were at work producing something and
about the same number of uplifter women would
stay at home and attend to their husband and
children and household duties We who work
continually called upon to put up for thousands of
drones whose work is only of their mouths and it
is getting to be an Internal nusance.-New Hart

What Do You Think of That?

1t has become than mere commonplace ru-
that the republicans have set their greedy eyes
upon the fair state of Florida, and are announcing
nationally that it may follow Kentucky into the
republican fold.
This matter has taken definite form in the Gre
alton of a state organization also county organza-
tions and the naming of candidates for United States
senator, representatives, and state offices.
But already a. fly of decidedly disagreeable odor
has befouled the G. O. P. ointment. 1t is the reap
pointment of the irrepressible republican negro
leader in the state, Joe Lee. to the office of
tary position that calls for direction of most of the
creative work to be done by the party in Florida.
This will be decidedly bitter pill for the White
republicans of the state to swallow and the repua
able portion of the party. that hoped to stand on
equal footing with the dfmocrats in this respect,
will not make any great effort to further political
mscegenation in Florida. else where.
1t was probably the idea of those who made up
the state slate that by this act of political misce-
genaton they would large negro vote but it
is well known and established fact that for vari-
Gus reasons, the negroes do not and will not VOTE
and an attempt to gain strength for any party by
catering to them is utter foy.-St. Andrews Bay

that "a military promenade" be taken

power was only temporarily broken by
