Let us hope, for the sake of suffering humanity, that this is a case where medical conservatism is merely loth to lower its barriers to a new and startling idea. At any rate, any effort to find a method of successfully combating the Great White Plague should receive the kearty co-operation of all men of gcience, and professional jealousy ghould not be allowed to enter into judgment. rosigeactes Ut Hardly a day but witnesseth the incipiency of a boomlet, tagged with the name of some more or less co- lossal statesman, in connection witn the succession to Park Trammell's jeb. A gubernatorial boom is a dei- fcate thing at best, and especially when launched some two or three years ahead of time, its premature birth, and precarious existence usu- ally are tollowed by an early con- signment to the great political graveyard where so many dead am- bitions lie buried beyond hope of a resurrection. Let's all stick to lll(‘l Jobs we have just now, and leave llu\: governor's business, which is being! mighty well taken care of, until such * or. Frederich F.

AN ANNIVERSARY GREATLY REMEMBERED. — In view of the approaching na- tional reunion of the United Confed- erate Veterans at Chattanooga there is the annual revival of civil war lit- erature always preceding such occa- plons, From a northern source the New York World, we reproduce the following tribute to Stonewall Jack- gon, a great plece of writing worthy of Napler or Macaulay, about a won- derful man, and no southern paper “Rifty years ago Friday there fell mortally wounded at Chancellors- ville one of the great captains of the English-speaking races. “Lee, who called Stonewall Jack- gon his strong right arm, once said that he would have won Gettysburs if Jackson had been there. Be that as it may, the almost uninterrupted victories of the Army of Northeri Virginia ended when Jackson passed away. Chancellorsville marked the fiood-tide of the Confederate arms. Two months later came Gettysburg, and from thence on to Appomatox Lee's forces, despite all their marvel- lous courage and tenacity, were nev- er again invineible. “Jackson's place in military his- tory is unique. Most great reputa- tions were made by long years of service. His carcer was compressed into a scanty twenty-two months, from that day in July 1861, when Lee pointed to him ‘standing like a stone wall' at Bull Run, to the early May day in 1863 when he marched bis corps around the front of Hook- ors army, smashed in its right flank and gave the Confederacy its most brilliant victory, only to fall under the fire of his own men. “A terrible partnership was that between the Cavalier and the Puri- tan; ‘between Lee, who embodied the chivalry of Virginia, and Jackson who was a direct spiritual descend- ant of the men that fought with (romwell at Naseby. In all erises the two men seemed to fight with a single brain and a single purpose, destitute alike of the jealousy and intrigue that all but wrecked the Army of the Potomac. “Jackson presents a strange, ap pealing figure on the pages of his- tery. He was as gentle and gracious as Lee, as silent and taciturn as was/| Grant, as daring and audacious as Stuart or Sheridan, as relentless as should fail to reproduce ft: ll time as it may come up in regular K Sherman, and with it all there was | | order o0 - “Uncle Joe" Dixon, for some time, engared as cditorial on the staff of the Ever Telegram, ha hearkened to the call of the road., and left this morning for all points North and West.

A Little Nonsense Now and Then Couldn’t Spare the Time. An elderly pair were making their first visit to a New York playhouse, says Judge. “Well, Sarah,” remarked the old gentleman, at the conclusion of the first act, “don’t you think we'd bet- ter be a-leavin'?” “Why, no, Hiram! The show ain't half over yet.” “Well, it says on this here pro- gram that three days elapse between the first and second acts, and I'm durned if 1 want to set here that long.” { oSBT 1 WARNING TO PUBLIC. See Anna Maria “key’ property It has been brought to my atten- | tion that agents are calling on peo- ple in South Florida in an effort to sell them lots at Anna Maria “key,” representing that the lots they are selling are at Anna Maria “Beach.’ For the information of the public 1 wish to say that Anna Maria “key” is about eight miles long, and & number of people have placel lots on sale at different points on thx': “key.” A number of people have lately visited Anna Maria Beach and requested that they be shown their, lets.
