Anderson has no showing in his effort to have the courts pronounce the Bryan primary ; law unconstitutional. Gyl Editor McClelland wants to know if he has made good in improving the Jacksonville Metropolis since he took possession of it about a year ago. He certainly has. The Me- tropolis is now a force in Florida journalism on its editorial side, and an excellent, all-round, enterprising newspaper. Ot Former Governor Gilchrist in- forms the Wauchula Advocate that he intends to be a candidate for the United States Senate to succeed Sen- 'ator Bryan. genial ex-governor's self,abnegation at the opening of the recent senator- fial campaign was not to be perma- nent and that, like Bre'r Fox, he was merely “layin’ low” awaiting a more favorable time. ety R The army of the unemployed in our gulf port cities can now dis- band, for war on the rats has be- come a vocation in which, if the rat killers show themselves experts, they may land almost in opulence if the rodent supply holds out. In Pensacola the city is paying ten cents for each dead rat with a pros- pect of an early increase in the tar- iff to twenty-five cents per head, and in other gulf coast cities there is likewise 5 similar profitable trade. Thus is the threatened disaster of the bubonic plague made a source of revenue to the needy and the de- tested rodent becomes an economic asset not to he despised. O i Four or five years ago the tobacco industry up in Gadsden county had apparently played out, crops couldn't be sold for the cost of growing them and that section was full of dis- heartened farmers steeped in gloom and without hope for the future. But, as is usually the case, such con- ditions didn’t last and King Tobacco is on his throne up there once more. Here's a little prosperity note from that kounty wlych indiefites how thingg are there now: ; “A crop of shaded tobacco on 56 acres in Gadsden county sold by Douglass, (‘urmivh:lvl/& Malone Quincey, Fla., to the American Cigar Co., New York, for $40,000.” was ,,,,,, {, ENERR SEND THEM TO THE FLORIDA COLLEGES Now that the time of year for gelecting schools of higher learning to which to send the young men and women of Florida for the next ses- sion is at hand, it is timely to call the attention (fi’purvuts to the fact that it is no longer necessary to send their sons and daughters out of the State to get the kind of education they are seeking. Ten years ago our State colleges were for the most part inferior to older schools of higher learning in ‘other States, but a mighty change has been wrought since then amrd the inferiority no longer exists. We not fine, up-to- denominational schools where only have a number of date thorough education can ba obtained, but the State University at Gaines- ville and the Woman's College at Tallahassee are now standard insti- tutions where the facilities for learn- {ng are fully as good as at more pre- tentious schools in other States; and unless there are exceptional reasons the and women of Florida should be sent to these home thereby abling them to grow in strength and for doing otherwise, young men schools, en- excellence with increasing patron- These schools, of course, must | 8t strictly on their merits and if they c 10t offer ir ements as good us t e outside of Florida they have no right to expect home sup- port motives of State pride the point is they can now inducements with the outside and they have a right to expect the e parent is debatin preference when ¢ where he shall boys and girls We suspected that the | The Orlando Reporter-Star has the courage of itg convictions about the outrageous failure of justice so frequent in our courthouses, and speaking of a recent villainovs pub- lic holdup in that city by a bunch of ruffians, two of whom were per- § Harvesting The Kansas Wheat Crop S QECK B Q3 0P OPFORPOPOPOPODOPOE Dg @b frefdpdnid PO EOANEEOO RO i Have You Ordered ”That New FALL SUIT mitted to go free after tr)\'ul, that (Continued from Yesterday.) i get that wheat set up so we can b paper says: | ; i start the headers.” p o “What is the effect of such a ver- The First Knockout.

This is better than holding up trains and picking pock- {ets, and more profitable in the long run. The truth is that Frank James never was a bad man at heart; rath- er was he a weak, good-natured fel- low easily influenced by stronger characters and he was deadly sick of the bandit trade long before he surrendered to the governor of Mis- souri. He inherited the amiable disposition of his good old preacher father, but Jesse ‘“‘took after” his mother, an eagle-eyed, Roman-nosed, thin-lipped woman, of remarkable i beauty even in her old age, and of dominating personality and caloric as clay in the potter's hands and was led into and kept at a life he abhorred by Jesse's brutal and im- perious will. s (s i That gift of a million dollars by Asa Candler, of Atlanta, to the new Methodist University, to be estab- lished in that city, was a splendid and most praiseworthy contribution to a great cause; but it looks almost piker money in comparison to the $20,000,000 recently contributed by Captain Mclrwin, a retired old cap- tain to the Southland Seminary down in St. Petersburg, where he is educating his two daughters. In making this gift, Captain Meclrwin, heretofore unknown to fame as a great capitalist, has distanced Car- negie, Rockefeller and all the rest of them and is in a class by him- self; but it is worth noting that the Candler money is in cash and the Meclrwin contribution is in the shape of hardwood forests over in Cuba, which he values at the stupendous sum mentioned. It is a princely ben- efaction, if the story is true, and will make the Southland Seminary the most richly endowed school in the South, if not in the world. But the old philanthropist could have done decidely more good to the cause of education in Florlda if he had public school purposes, thus help- ing to carry the light of knowledge to many paratively few.

Two of the stu- dents had the same trouble. Jack, the Kansas City office man, had trouble with the stack- er.
