ALL IN THE GAME

/
H. NJ Hampton and Anderson &
Anderson, attorneys of Ocala, have,
at the request of other citizens, filed a
written formal protest with the board
of commissioners of state institutions,
at Tallahassee, against the letting of
contracts to complete the proposed adj
ditions to the state capitol, authorized
by the last legislature.
The act appropriated $250,000 @out
Of any moneys in the state treasury
not otherwise appropriated !" The pro-
test takes the position that there are
no moneys lin the state treasury not
otherwise appropriated. !"
The Tribune has not looked into
the question of whether there is or
is not any moneys in the state treas
ury not otherwise appropriated, there
fore, it will not attempt to speak of
the probabilities of success for the
Iprotesters; but, it is fair game that
is being played, and it is a fair move
that is taken.
When the sentiment for capital re-
moval last session of the legislature
began to get warm and the demand
was being made from all over the
southern half of the state for an op-
portunity to let the people, as a
whole, speak on the matter North
and western Florida, which holds as it
has held since it dominated the legis-
latures which arranged the present
apportionment of representatives and
state senators, made haste to put
through bill providing for the ma
terial enlargement of the old capitol.
1t was openly said the main object of
the bill was to cut off any further
danger of removing the capital, they
thinking that, with this much of the
taxpayers money spent there, the
sentiment would be against throwing
it away The advocates Of giving the
people no voice in the matter, won
out. and the bill passed and was sign
ed. Architects were called on for plans,
and it has been announced that the
contract will be let by the board of
state institutions early in January.
But the friends of capital removal.
lying low and salving the smart given
them by the move of the upper state
crowd, are not asleep. They have
taken the matter under consideration
and have decided that one foxy move
is no worse than another foxy move.
Therefore, the protest which has been
filed, and which will doubtless be fol-
lowed by an injunction against the
boards movement
1t will take some time to get the
matter adjusted, but friends of capital
removal have already waited long
time, and they are patient and will go
through the entire machinery of the
courts to have the matter settled. If
it be true there is no money in the
state treasury mot otherwise approp-
rated" then the work cannot go on.
The expenses of government have
been running up to monstrous height
for years in Florida, and the time has
come to go strictly by the Law in all
such matters. Tampa Tribune.

DISCOVERER OF PHOSPHATE IN
FLORIDA GOES TO HIS LAST REWARD

States revenue service under Dennis
Egan. After the expiration of his
term, he removed to Orange county
and engaged in the publication of the
Altoona Argus, gaining honorable rec
ognition in this occupation, and subse-
quently he had experience in the real
estate business of Yallaha and at
Ocala.
1t was our pleasure to have known
him through the many vicissitudes of
life: when young man struggling at
the foot of the ladder; again, after
reaching almost the zenith when his
name was blazoned forth as great
discoverer and the states benefactor
and while listening to the applause
of men,
Passing through these several plas-
es we remember with affection that
he remained the same strong and
steadfast friend.
While living at Dunnellon in May
1889, in sinking well, he penetrated
a white substance which he knew
was not lime but which he believed
was more valuable and his belief was
so strong that he had it analysed. It
proved to be phosphate, and when
the chemist added a footnote stating
that. if found in quantity it would
prove more valuable than a gold mine
in the Klondyke, Mr.. Vogt, in CON
| junction with his friend the late Hon
John F. Dunn of this city, had no diff
ificulty in organizing a company for
promoting the phosphate industry AMI
the DunneIlon Phosphate Company
/ was the result and soon the organiza
ton of other companies quickly fol-
lowed.
The discovery produced revolution
in the history of Florida.
| Through Mr. Vogt's discovery
hundreds have grown opulent and
Florida was made to occupy a new
place On the map and became com
lmerciaIly known in all lands.
For a time the deceased feaped a
rich reward from his find, and it was
then that his true nature was shown
in the dispensing of a prodiga1 hospi
tally and becoming the patron of
many benevolences.
Mr.. Vogt was twice married and it
is a great consolation to know that
his domestic life was most happy and
his last years were made peaceful By
/ the devotion shown him by most
devoted family.
i He leaves a sorrowing widow, two
sons, a niece and two nephews all Of
whom were with him in his last ILL
ness.
/ Just before his death he expressed
a desire to be buried beside the grave
of DR.. Dan'l A. Vogt. favorite uncle,
in the Lcng Swamp cemetery, near the
old Mt. Hope church where he wor-
shipped in his younger days.
His wish was gratified The body
was met at the Union Station here
| by number of friends and it was
conveyed to the cemetery OF his
choice and was laid to eternal rest be-
meath the soughing pines.

Methodist church, OBLIGATED and the
