Editor DeBerry, of the Florida Arrow, seems to have abandoned his “fact and attitude toward the human race and in the last is- sue of his paper talks in this gemtle and soothing way: “The Arrow has decided that as the election is over, the war is over, and the winter weather is somewhere else besides in our sanc- tum, to bury the hatchet and forgive and forget." furious” The nerves of this old world are s0 jaded with shocks, surprises, sen- sations and disasters innumerable and stupendous that even the super- lative horror of a general European war now threatened, stirs hardly more than lanzuid interest outside the regions directly interested. The human race is becoming shock-proof and only the Day of Judgment will make us all sit up and take notice. it i S i SRR That dear old Ulster county Ga- zette printed in the year 1800 and giving an account of George Wash- ington's death and funeral has turned up again—this time in Flor- ida, and its owner imagines that he has a real bona fide copy actually printed on the date claimed. Like imitations of the Old Masters, it is! just as good as the original unless you know the difference. —_—— It is opined by the Palatka News that the Florida Anti-Saloon League will ask the next Legislature to re- submit the State-wide prohibition amendment to the people. We don’t doubt it, for the chief purpose of that league is to make trouble for the liquor traffic. is submitted, Bro. find new inspiration for his talented Pen in behalf of booze ag the corner stone of our liberties, X RS W 0 The Fort Myers Press suspects that the Telegram would like to re- call a recent editorial paragraph in which the opinion was expressed that diplomacy would find a way out and save Europe from a general war because of the Austro-Servian trouble. Our war editor never ap- plies the recall to his predictions until the evidence is all in and the prophecy is disproved by the event. Diplomacy in the matter referred to hasn’t reached the end of its re- sources and at this writing the gen- eral European war hasn't material- {zed. Our prophetic withers are un- wrung—we stand pat. Yo Tn this country criticism of the re- sult in the Caillaux trial comes with bad grace. The woman was guilty of murder, of course, and she was acquitted on grounds of sentiment | and sex regardless of the facts in the case, but we acquit hundreds of urderers in the United States every year for reasons not half as valid and respectable. Despite her erime the French woman is not a menace to society and will never Kkill again, but over here our jury ver- dicts and technicalities amount al- most to a license system for certain classes of murderers and more than a few of them take advantage of it and repeat their crimes -0 If Russia and Germany and the other big powers keep hands off Aus- to lick her adversary tria ought to be able puny but plucky little Servia, but it tain if Montenegro and other Balkan States join forces, as they promise with their late ally and that nation has unsuccessful in nearly all its of Hapsburg, been so wars for the past century and more that the Mishapsburg might be a name more 1)\ accord House of with the facts point of view it seems AN unnecessary war, but we ar with all the 1 racia] twists ns with nation from big-head get to be in d to be well spank swelling and nec the is reduced.

The subject 1 have | 2ot on my mind at present is weads. I'he weads in this town is altogather { too numerous and prosperous to sute {me. I am wanting that we should al] arise in our mites and get these [weads cut down. At the writin they are all 'and it will not be long until the fcundasions for a | better crop n(*xll | yeer will be lade good and propper 'by these here sedes bein flung far and wide on the breazes, ete, present going to sede summer | We had not ought to allow these ithings to be this way. "ellick Some smart will ast me how we are go- in to get things diferent. And they is some truth to this. It is pretty 'easy to get one man to do something but when you are workin on sr‘\un-ll ,beeple or a hunderd peeple all at oncet you would think some of them would do something but such is not the case. The more they is to work on the less there is of them that will do anything. It is now time, i however, that something was being done. If we had a wead cuttin day like a good rodes day, it would be a good idee, but such is not neses- sary. Nobody is rasin there weads out of spite or because they like weads or because it is such hard work to cut weads. Cuttin weads is not hard work, vut it 1s awful hard to get started. It is like takin | a bath. 1 kind of like to take a bath but it makes me so blame mad to have to pump the water and cart lit into the wood shed that time I get the sope and the towels cand my other sute of undeiclose and | my clean socks and the wash rag| ready, and if it is winter time, I have to get the water het up, and it all togather about gets my en-' mentation surmounting the arch.
