This seemed strange, for we knew that the Flor- ida Federation of Labor was not en- gaged, in partisan politics and was in the habit of confining itself to its proper- work of promoting the cause of organized labor, to which Senator " Fletcher is no less a friend than Mr. Stockton. The following from the Miami Herald explains it all, and, while showing how mean and unscrupulous i8 the war which certain individuals are making on Senator Fletcher, re- lieves the Federation of even the guspicion of such unworthy methods: “It'is hardly a fair thing to report} a meeting of a representative body of men and quote them as having committed themselves to an action which they did not adopt. durid headlines were used in attempting to show that the State Federation of Labor, whose annual session in this city has just closed, had practically endorsed one of the candidates for the United tates senatorship from this State, and had severely criticised the other. This was unfair because it would give the impression over the State that the federation had depart- ed from its well known principles and had gone into politics. Tt was not only unfair to the federation, but it was unfair to candidates who was critjcised and who was not present t& defend himself. The Her- ald is most reliably informed that, although there were one or two men who made violent political speeches during the sessions of the federation, all reference to what was said was expurged from the minutes by a practicallly unanimous vote. The at- tempt to commit the great Federa- tion of Labor to the candidacy of Mr. Stockton and to a fight on Mr. Fletcher, failed utterly, and the par- tisan attempt to make it appear that the federation had taken such action will utterly fail of its purpose as all deception fails.” [, S The Ocala Star says it with pith, force and perfect accuracy of judg- ment in the following: way he spelled his name, and it wlll' NOTICE OF SALE not be many weeks before we can be writing it Dennis, or even simplify- ing it to Mud. SIS S Again we score in high class prophecy. Some months ago when went to Columbus, Ga., to take the position of secretary of the (Columbus Board of Trade, we stated boldly and without ambizuity that he would re- main there a brief period and soon be back in South Florida at his old trade of boosting the best country in the world. A dispatch from Colum- bus announces htat Willis has re- signed and will come back to South Florida, locating temporarily in St. Petersburgz. He is a restless genius, is Willis, but he is no mossback, for rolling stones gather no moss, and while he lasts on the job he is a val- uable man in any community, for he is a dvnamo of energy and a progres- sive to his fingertips. 0 Amid the well-nizht universal lust for the slaughter of birds at this season, regardless of their value to the farmers as insect destroyers, it is pleasant to learn of at least one farmer in Florida who realizes that a live bird feeding on the insects that hurt his growing crops is of much more value than a dead one even in the seductive form of quail on toast. The Gainesville Sun says: “There is at least one farmer in Alachua county who appreciates the services of the quail, dove and other birds. G. W. Harrison, who con- ducts a large farm about half way hetween Gainesville and Newman's lake, never molests a bird in his field or permits any one else to do so. He says birds (and especially the quail) are the farmer's best friend.’ The tin revived that Dannette Mays, of Jefferson county, will be a candidate for C(‘Ongress in the Third district Mr. Me resented that district in Congress for one term and was defeated by Wil- son, the present incumbent. He is really and truly a farmer, and as Wilson and Stokes, the other two candidates for the place, are lawyers and both Pensacola men, Mr. Mays would appeal to the farming element with good prospect of success. And the farmers are very numerous in the Third district. —_————— Congressman Clark can now dis- miss his fears and get some much needed peace of mind. Dr. Sato, of the Imperial University of Japan, says that Japan doesn’t want to send her people to the United States ‘and makes it as difficult as possible for them to get the necessary passports before leaving their own country. Japan wants to settle up Manchuria and Korea and nearby dependencies and gives no encouragement to the schemes which take her subjects nearly ten thousand miles away to alien lands where they are no advan- tage to her in peace and could be of no benefit in war. A few Japs scat- tered here and there in our rural dis- tricts would be very useful as object lessons in improved agriculture and intensive farming, and there isn’t the slightest danger that they will come here in sufficient numbers to be a menace even without exclusion ramor s rep-| EURCPEAN NEWS AND VIEWS London, Jan. 10.—London trades- people have begun to speculate on the number of royal visitors to Eng- land during the coming season and the | Willis Powell left South Florida and | there is not much prospect of big business so far. Some of the dis- tinguished visitors scheduled to come to London are known *“tight- iwads” and very little business re- sults from their trips. London shop- keepers are always glad when the king and queen of Norway and the | king and queen of Spain come to England, for they are lavish spend- ers. The most prominent of the early visitors is King Christian of { Denmark, who is expected here in [March. The economical traits of |the Danish ruler are famous. Probably the most interesting of the Scott Antarctic expedition speci- mens, which have just been placed in the Natural History Museum at South Kensington, are the few pieces of coal found by Captain Scott’s par- ty in latitude 85 degrees, in the mid- dle of the frozen plateau that stretches from King Edwards Land way beyond the South Pole. The coal was found by Commander Ev- ans among little bundles of fossils which Captain Scott and his three companions dragged through the blizzard with their other baggage on that memorable journey which cost them their lives. The few tiny frag- it follows that at some remove pe- ments, under the light of science, tell a wonderful story. If it is true, as these specimens strongly indicate, that there is coal at the South Pole, riod there must have been forests growing in this frozen, ice covercd land. {which azes ago shone over the hills and fertile valleys of King Edwards | Land, noew a desolate ice waste., CAN YOU DOUBT IT?

The proof is not far away—it is almost at your door. Read what a resident of Tam- pa says about Doan’s Kidney Pills. Can you demand more convincing testimony Mrs. M. E. Andrews, 2908 Cen- tral Ave., Tampa, Fla., says: “For a number of years I had attacks of kidney complaint. My back was weak and I suffered greatly from oth- er kidney ailments. Doan’s Kidney Pills were finally brought to my at- tention and upon using them, I was relieved. Since then I have taken them on several occasions and a few doses have always removed any sign of the old trouble.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
