A Time-Saver

Observation has taught us new
way to manicure finger nails and
although we have not attempted it
ourselves we believe that. it could
be worked out satisfactorily. The
system is this: Riding down the
street in the back seat Of Ford,
allow your arm to hang well over
the side of the car, thrusting the
fingers in between the rear fender
and the rear tire. As the wheel re-
wolves, lightly rest the. finger nails
on the tread of the tire. The dirt
on the tire serves as a polishing
powder and the tire itself Il very

candidate for United States senator at
the coming fall election, requested the
regular organization to do likewise,
and let the result of the vote for the
candidates for this Office be accepted
as determining the attitude of the
party on the issue involved.
1t is believed that the issue, as thus
presented, constitutes not only the
most important political issues from
a business standpoint ever submitted
to the voters of this state, but that it
may have a far-reaching national sig
nificance as we'll.
Now want to say that, stripped of
all the make-believe mystery, the
fearful forebodings, the grave head
shaking, and other tommyrot with
which both republican and democratic
politicians have cloaked this political
"scarecrow," their counsel means Just
this: That shortly after the war
somebody started a lie about racial
equality, and now it can't be stopped.
And about the same time somebody
began promising Offices to negroes, as
reward for political support, and
now these promises can't be with
drawn" And to think that we, the
rank and file of the party, would fall
for such stuff as that! Why business
men know that the way to stop that
lie about racial equality, is to stop
telling it, and that the way to stop
promising offices to negroes, is to stop
promising them!
The fact of the matter is. this Ques-
tion, with all its tremendous infiu-
ences for evil, is nothing but recog-
nized party policy. whose only rea-
son for existence is that it makes a
mighty convenient political tool.

WHITE WRONG FOR ONCE

Editor William White of the En-
poria Gazette usually is a pretty safe
man to tie to, but for once he has
slipped cog, from our point of view.
His defiance of the authorities of the
imperial state of Kansas in carrying
a sign in his window expressing fifty
two per cent sympathy for the striking
railroad shopmen, while a splendid
vaunt of his right OF free speech, still
is a defiance of the constituted author
tiles.
Kansas law says that no man may
strike in any industry that is a public
utility. The law is plain. A railroad
is nothing if not a public utility
Therefore Editor White placed himself
in the attitude of cheering on oppon-
ents of the law Of the land There
is the point where we part company.
and we assert, beyond peradventure,
that Mr. White has picked up the
hot end of the poker. He is dead
wrong.
Had he no recource to the law it.
self for relief we might figure him in
martyrs role; willing to be i'm
INJURED in the county jail for such a
period as would expiate his offense,
to preserve our liberty of free speech
However, he failed to go into court
and ask for an injunction restraining
the authorities from forcing him to
remove his placard. No private citi-
zen is greater than the law-not even
an editor, although the cub reporter
occasionally feels that way. Editor
White is no cub. He's a veteran at
the craft and it looks to us as though
he is wrong for once.
Kansas editors will be justified in
supporting Governor Henry Allen in
his attitude, even if he is attacking
one OF our own newspaper family. A
nan who attacks the law and goes
against the authorities is fouling his
own nest. IT'S brave man who es-
says to break lance with the sage
of Emporia, and Governor Allen has
proved to be Spartan in this in

TAELolD FLoRIpA HISTORY

One of the chief industries of the
state is phosphate mining In 1881 a
government official was examining
some rocks in Peace creek, in Polk
county, where lie the great beds of
rock that are treated by acid and thus
converted into the greatest fertiIizing
element. He endeavored to interest
capitalists in Jacksonville, then in
half a dozen northern cities to take up
the matter. but without avail the
idea of making fertilizer out Of old
rocks evidently looked to them like
a crack-brained theory OF the widest
kind.
Eight years later a village doctor at
Ocala analyzed some of this rock
brought to him from the vicinity OF
Dunnellon, finding it contained seven
ty-fve per cent of phosphate of lime.
He started a movement that spread
like wildfire, soon all the land in the
vicinity changing hands at what SEEM
ed then as fabulous prices and result
ing in the great phosphate factories
at Dunnellon.
1t was not until 1888 that the min
ing of phosphate rock in Florida took
on the degree of an industry and to
January 1919, the total output was
valued at S129,O55,7S7.
This region is now the greatest
phosphate producer in the world, and
even the geography of the section has
taken on some of its characteristics,
one town being named Pebble and an
other Phosphoria.
The phosphate deposit is found in
layers running from eight to twelve
feet thick and is of three kinds-soft
and hard rock and pebble, the latter
being mined automatically. There is
more pebble rock mined than of either
of the other kinds.
In 1915 Levy county had two mines
employing lao men and with $3.50, 900
capital invested. In the vicinity of
Mulberry there were reported in 1914
to be sixteen mines within a radius of
a few miles, their shipments being
two and one-quarter million tons an
nually.
In 1918 104,946 tons were shipped
to foreign ports, the value of the out
put for that year being: Hard and
soft rock, s524,17S; pebble S5,565, 1928.
The businessA lis still growing; dur
ing the first half of 1921 there were
shipped 371,765 tons and the first half
of 1922, 435.379 tons. This output
was nearly equally divided between
foreign and coastwise shipments. The
figures in this last paragraph apply to
water shipments from Tampa and do
not indicate the full output of the
mines, as considerable quantities are
shipped by rail.
Lakeland and Barlow also receive
considerable benefits from these acti-
vities.-Agnew Welsh in Miami HE

CLEAN UP, HOOVER
ADVISES BUILDERS
Secretary States Practices of
Minority Have Become Un-
endurabIe to Public.

Dy the Associa ted Press.
CHICAGO, April 5.-The practices of
small minority in the construction in
dustry are uncomfortable and must be
cleaned up if business and commerce
desire protection from the steady in
vasion of regulatory hands of the gov
eminent" said Herbert Hoover. Secre-
tary of Commerce, in his address yester-
day before the fifth annual meeting OF
the National Federation OF Construction
Industries.
The Secretary said that during the
past ten months the Department of
Commerce had given intensive study TO
the situation i'll the construction INDUS
try. and that the survey led to only one
conclusion on his part-''this situation
must simply be cleaned up.
"Need Cleaner OrGanization.
The industry needs cleaning, and
the decent men in the industry must
organize to do it; the great indirect
wastes which are beyond the control
of any individual or concern must be
eliminated by concerted action. To
accomplish these ends there is need
ed a cleaner organization OF the
trades, not the destruction of the
trade organiZa tions." These were
the conclusions drawn from the de-
partment inquiry into the industry,
Mr.. Hoover said.
He continued, in part:
Il have an aspiration for con-
structive remedies.
Let US take single material
lumber. Several leading manufac-
turers inform me that the time has
come when we must have n guaran-
tee against short deliveries and
fraudulent alteration of qualities
The product of the honest miller
must have protection from the crook
ed competitor. Many COM
modities are assured as to quantity
and grade under the inspection and
rules of our voluntary trade associa-
TONS If you think il wiser to do so,
we could probably secure the enact
ment of a pure food law in all build
ing materials. l would much rather
see the trades themselves establish
their own standards.
Asks Better Statistics.
1--WE need a cleaning up in the statis-
teal work of the trade associations.
I'VE need in our organized labor a
removal of every restraint upon eff
fort. There can be no answer to the
fundamental economic fact that the
standard of living of all people is the
simple quotient of the commodities
and services produced.
Restriction upon effort in the
building trades simply reserves the
better class of homes to the better
TODD people,"
