Venice, Italy, Aug. 20.
Dear Folks:-Have had just the
best time. Left Pola with ship
mate at $50 p. m. for Trieste. The
train climbed up and up, overlook
ing valleys with little villages tuck
ed in the corners. When we had
assembled for two hours we hit a
country without vegetation-rough,
rocky and barren, like pictures >of
the North Dakota bad lands. We
arrived at Corsina just at shutdown.
Corsina is large and lies about 300
feet directly below the railroad
tracks. 1t has a fine stone COM
panile.
We arrived at Pisino, the highest
point enroute, 100 meters above
the sea in full moonlight, got off,
stretched our legs and ate kilo of
| Hungarian summersausage and a
big hunk of cheese. Yes, ate
cheese too-white Swiss cheese, just
Ike you use to put on macaroni.
/ guess you don't. know that | have
a passion for Swiss cheese, acquired
once when it was either cheese or
go hungry!
Going down the mountains to Tri-
este was speed intensified. AS we
approached we could see the harbor
and lights while still seventy miles
away. Nearing the city the tracks
ran along the edge Of deep can
yon, then spiraled down from dir
ectly above the city to the water
front, giving US a good panorama.
almost an aerial trip.
Trieste, | have decided, is the
cleanest, most modern and industrial
city I've seen in Europe. All build
ingS are large and of clean white
granite, wide streets fine fountains
and statues, grand big plaza and
good sculpture on all sides. We

THE FRIDGE" UNITED FOR PROGRESS
Times nion.)


Some projects, agricultural, industrial, and 9th
orwise that arc under way aaJ il contemplation
in Florida are so unusual in both Importance and
assurance of ultimate success, that hesitates
to give publicity thereto for fear of being accused
of boosting" in its more less questionable
sense. Not so, however, with the latest big pro-
ject that has just been launched in Florida, but
not without months of hard work by men who
are just as "hard-headed," when it comes to sizing
up a proposition under the question: us it prac-
tical?"
Reference is made to the announcement, just
made of the greatest cooperative enterprise that
ever has been undertaken in Florida, an epter-
prise, not of individual character but one in
which many individuals putting their should
ers to the wheel" for the moving forward of what
is known as the Ridge section of the state, ex-
tending from Haines City on the north to Lake
Stearns and Lake Childs, almost at Lake Okee-
chobee as the south point of this great and nat
urally rich section of Florida.
In February last the Farm and Live Stock Rec
ord intimated that some such great enterprise
under way, saying: Mr. Van Horn, some
of these days not far distant is going to tell of
development projects that are going to make 9TH
ers than the good people of Haines City, OF even
the entire Ridge, sit up and take notice." Many
wondered what lin the wind"
Well, Mr. Isaac Van Horn has gone and done
it," The news is out and has started travelling
throughout the United States and even into for
egn countries, for be it known that the men
and the money back of the developments that
proposed for the Ridge section of the state will
carry the glad tidings far and wide. Not only
that. The same motive forces. with the CO.
operation of the people of nearly of sue
cessfully established communities, towns and
cities, will be at work in the announced endeavor
Ito make this the greatest section of Florida"
through the combined "unselfish effort" of all the
people of the scenic highlands section, which it
is sought to benefit.
Mr. Isaac Van Horn has been mentioned in
connection with this great cooperative enterprise
because through his efforts has been brought to
realization this project. Although a citizen of
and interested financially in Haines City, he has
worked for what he conceived to be the best
interests of the entire Ridge section. Thus he
established confidence which has brought forth
inent business and citizens, scores of them,
of the entire section, have joined with him in
launching this gigantic and latest enterprise for
the more complete development of Florida, or in
this instance, very particular and large section
of the state ~. 81
The foundation has been 'deep-laid; on it will
be erected series of enterprises by which not
will be benefited. Cooperation, wisely directed
and amply provided with funds, in hand and as
sured, will put it over"

John BURROUGHS

A message Of sadness flashed over the wires
Tuesday when it was announced that John Bur
roughs. venerable naturalist and author, had died
suddenly on a train bearing him from California to
his eastern home.
Though not the greatest man the country has
produced he filled distinct and enviable place
in public estimation. He was a man of pure char
acter, strong common sense, master OF easy
and delightful literary style, observer of nature
a critic of books and connoisseur of all the
agencies of culture While not strikingy orig
naI nor the discoverer of startling facts in natural
science, he performed an invaluable service in
popularizing natural history.
He was pioneer in popular science literature
in America. From his delightful essays, most of
which were originally published IN the atlantic
Monthly, other authors drew inspiration and
joined in the work of bringing the dry facts of
science within the comprehension OF the masses.
He was a man of ardent faith, an optimist in
his philosophy, poet in thought and feeling, a
critic who loved 10 introduce the best ideas of
his subject TO his readers, and an essayist whose
spnghtly thoughts ranged through all the realms
OF heaven and earth
A world in which John Burroughs would be
an average citizen would be as near perfect as
human limitations permit Ito hope for. Yet
such world-or at least such country-is not
a moral impossibility. He is the type of what a
cultured, educated gentle hearted, we'll Informed
man should be. and what thousands could be if
they fixed their thoughts upon worthy things and
cultivated hne and generous feelings to the ex-
ousons CT the unworthy and evil.

TURN ON The LIGHT

The regrettable thing about the disclosures in
Jasper county, Georgia. of the murder of eleven
negroes alleged to have been held in peonase,
aside from the fact itself. is the invitation it holds
out to the north to indulge in injurious criticism.
Such a condition admits of no defense. If the
facts have been correctly stated the Georgia author
tiles should make the investigation so searching that
guilty will escape, and peonage will be
forever impossible in that state in the future 1t
can do no less for the sake of its own reputation
and the good name of the south.
No cry of race riot should be permitted to
draw a herring across the trail. There will be no
race riot if the authorities do their duty, and if
they refuse the responsibility will rest upon them.
Such practices are not to be tolerated in civilized
country.

THE. MILL TAX

The ampa Tribune is against the proposed
amendment to the constitution to permit special
districts to increase the mill tax from mills to 0
mills to take care of the schools 1t says, The
lnbune does not see its way clear to advocate any
higher eves for special districts under the present
i'll working, unfair burdening tax system that Flor
ida IS suffering from today
The Tnbunes conclusion strikes us as a non
sequitur. The fact that our tax system is bad calls
for "a reform of that system. and the Telegram is
much in favor of it as anybody But whether
we can get better system or not the need of bet
ter schools is imperative and cannot be postponed
and we can see justice in Furnishing the children
with imperfect educational advantages for the
SINS of the fathers In permitting our tax system
to become deranged
If any better plan for raising the money then
the seven mill increase can be suggested we are
for it; but are in favor of raising the necessary
money by any that the legislature can de-
wise. after which we shall be pleased to Join the,
Tribune in fighting for more equitable arrange
ments.

SALE OF COUNTIES
FLORIDA Metropolis.)

IFIOrlda MetrOpO1isl
All Florida is deeply interested in the question
of that sale of West Florida counties to Alabama,
but it is the attitude of the West Florida counties
themselves toward the proposition that makes
the most interesting reading The De Funiak
Breeze says: Even Alabama has become inter-
ested in the prospective oil fields of western
Florida. They want to add this portion of the
state to that state. Such action would help West
Florida to a certain degree for we believe Ala
bama would develop our bay front, for this is
what they are after. but the horror comes in
changing the name of Florida to Alabama The
next legislature will have this question to deal
with and then it will be up to the people to vote
on if considered by them"
