Wherever it is possible, it is being worked for all it is worth—at Pensacola, at St. Petersburg, and even at little Pass- a-Grille. It is never any trouble to find some people everywhere who are “‘agin the government” on general principles. —0 "That “‘society circus” over at St. Petersburg on Saturday and Monday is going to be some event, if we are to believe the St. Petersburg papers. The Times carries a picture which it claims is a “typical event” of the af- fair, depicting a fair St. Petersbur- gerette, clad in slivpers and a rut- fle around her waist, Jjumping, through a paper-covered hoop held as high as a man can reach. We're going over just to see that stunt, and if they don’t make good on it somebody’s got to stand a damage suit. ——0 If DeBerry can make that daily he is about to start at Plant City as funny as he has made his semi- occasional Arrow, he will do much to make life brighter in the sanc- tums of weary newspaper men. For instance, referring to the statement that Angle had included in his ex- pense account an item of “$7.50 for licking J. Fred DeBerry,” Fred's Ar- row says, ‘“the law does not allow him or any other man to use money in any such way.” For delicious, unconscious humor, Fred has all the funny fellows beaten four ways to breakfast.

The announcement that these items had been eliminated, coming two or three days before the primary, looked al- most as if it were an electioneering scheme, pulled off by the enemies of these gentlemen, and capital was made of it; but their restora- tion to the bill cannot be charged to pre-election activity, and is due to the fact that we have able men in Washington, who are always on the job.
