FLORIDA JUSTICE

editorial about the miscarriage of justice in Flor

the Herald has called attention to the fact that

almost any crime and get by with it for money

As Others See 1t
FLORIDA THROUGH BRITISH EYES
(Florida Metropolis.)

A view of the Florida Everglades, as seen
through British eyes, is given in an article in the
London Mail. The article says:
Three quarters of the way down the long
row peninsula of Florida you come to an immense
lake. This is Okeechobee, as large as the county
of Surrey, yet nowhere more than dozen feet
deep. most dangerous sheet of water to cross,
for, owing to its shaowness a summer thunder
storm raises sea in which boat can live.
South Of Okeechobee you reach wall of mon
strous cypress black and forbiddng, hoary with
trails of grey Spanish moss, and beyong this the
gades themselves.
The Everglades of Florida form a swamp which
is one of the largest and in many respects the
strangest in the world Cupped by a shallow
rim of limestone, it's surface is not more than
ten feet above low-water mark, yet the swamp
itself is not brackish, but filled with clear soft
water.
What you see at first is an endless expanse Of
sawgress, grey green in color, eight to ten feet
high, and apparently impenetrable Yet every
where run narrow channels of clear water dot
ted with lily leaves. Here and there these broad
en- into exquisite lakes where alligators float like
logs, and where is sometimes seen that strange
creature, the manatee, the true original of the
mermaid. 1t is a great animal allied to the du-
gong, quite harmless, and devoted to it's young
Islands dot these lakes-isands covered with
grape vines and sweet yelow-fowering jasmine.
Here linger the last survivors of the Seminole
Indians, a type more nearly approaching the
Redskin of fiction than any still existing any
where. They live by fishing and hunting, they
travel by canoe, and, curiousy enough, they still
retain few negro slaves, descendants of those
runaways who took refuge with them in the old
days.
The bird life of the glades is wonderful Ibis,
heron, ducks of many kinds snake birds, limp
kins, and the beautiful white egret abound. There
are snakes, too. Great diamond rattlers and the
sluggish, hideous swamp moccasin In the hum
mocks' grow wild grange, wild lemon, the GUS
tard apple, and wonderful orchids.
And now comes the news that the state of Flor
ida has begun to drain the whole of this wonder
full land. 1t seerhs1 Dissertation, but it had to
come, for here is an area twice the size of York
SHIRE which is probably the richest piece of land
on the earths surface. 1t will grow the finest
sugar. tobacco, and every kind of subtropical
fruit, and has the enormous advantage of being
almost on salt water, and consequently within
easy reach of the best markets in the world

HARDING ON THE TARIFF

That President Harding is not mpervous to-
the arguments which were made against the tariff
bill which passed the lower house of congress
during the special session, is evident from the
tone of his address to congress. At times he
comes perilously near to sound argument. Thus.
he says:
I'VE face the necessity of buying wherever we
sell and the permanency of trade lies in its ac-
ceptable exchanges. In our pursuit of markets
we must give as we'll as receive. We can not sell
to these who do not produce, and we can not buy
unless produce at home
Standing alone, the foregoing is an unanswer-
able argument for free trade And it is not fully
controversed by anything else contained in his
address? Why then, cling TO protection?
Foreign nations must sell, he admits, if they
would buy. But protective duties handicap their
commerce. They can not sell as much to a coun-
try protected by tariff walls as they could sell
to the same country if those walls were down.
Hence--how amazing that the irresistible conclu-
sion eludes him-they can not buy as much from
that country
Mr.. Harding admits that the exclusion of for
egn trade from this country would have the eff
feet of excluding our trade from foreign countries.
They can not buy unless they can sell. Is it not
equally clear that partial exclusion results in a
corresponding partial inability to buy.
On the very face of the only logic that makes
his address Ineligible, then, the way to attain
the maximum of foreign commerce, and with it
the maximum of production and the prosperity
that attends it, is 10 open wide the doors so as to
permit foreign nations to enjoy the maximum of
production and commerce.
A nation, peculiarly situated, NAV, for time.

fairs where trade with this country is the chief com
mercial factor of all the leading nations, tariff
IN excess of strict revenue needs, is simply brake
upon world progress. If Mr.. Harding could 90
just one short step farther and recognize that
fact he would be in position to confer the greatest
possible blessing short of universal peace. upon all

sign which states: Park your cars in Georgia or
South Carolina-no more room for tourists here.
And, like the postscript to a womans letter, the
paragraph concludes with its most significant sem
tence, They are urging that Augusta improve the
camp so as to be enabled to take care of the
visitors.
We do not believe there Is any such sign on
the boundary line as the unnamed tourist de-
scrbes. If so, it was put up by somebody with
the design of knocking the state by false and
malicious implication, and not by any representa-
tive of real Florida sentiment.
This state is prepared to welcome and take
care of all the tourists that come If there is any
complaint of i'll treatment it is reserved for outside
ears. Tourists are rolling in every day, by train
and automobile. Practically every city and vii
lage has its free camp site, not yet crowded. Be-
sides, the big outdoors-the roadsides, fields for
ess, and everywhere accessible to water.-is &C
cessible to campers, who are freely availing them
selves of the advantages offered.
Florida makes its appeal on its own merits. 1t
knocks no other state and states no invidious
comparisons If visitors prefer 10 stop in Georgia,
that is their lookout; or. if they prefer to go on to
Cuba or the Isle of Pines, Florida has nothing to
say. They have right to Judge for themselves.
But deliberate attempts to misrepresent conditions
in this state can not go unchalenged. If the
cities north of the Florida line expect to benefit
themselves by disappearing this state. or sup
pressing the truth about it. they will find they have
started an argument which is bound to be decided
against them.
Let EN- try it, if they are not afraid of the con-
sequences.

KNOCKING FLORIDA

The Augusta, Ca, Herald, evidently believes
that the only way to boost its home town effectively
as tourist resort is to knock Florida. An article
In the Sunday edition CT that paper, under the
signature of Edith Bell Love. contains some of
the most remarkable statements we have ever seen
in print.
Every day, she says tourists relate in
stances of other tourists who are headed back
home from Florida unable to find a place, and
