The touristg are already coming in and new faces are seen upon our streets every day. The war isn’t going to diminish Florida’s annual crop of this kind; rather will it in- crease it, for the rich people can’t get to Europe now to blow their money, and a fierce northern win- ter will inevitably drive them to the sweotness, warmth and light of tbis glorious peninsula. | e O Ll We are mighty sorry to learn that Colonel Calhoun is to lose his ,lt)bl as deputy collector of customs at Tampa as a result of the removal of the headquarters from Jacksonville | to the latter city. It is what is’ called an automatic removal, what- ever that may be, but that doesn't bring any comfort to the colonel.! He iz a close personal friend of Sec- | retary Bryan, wag chummy with him | in the old days in Lincoln, Neb., before Fame had marked the silver- tongued Commoner for her own, and if the latter is the man we take him to 'be, he will find another berth for his old comrade who has been deprived of his job through no fault of his own. D Brother Henry Watterson or some admirer hypnotized by his fascinat- ing flow of words, has sent us a two- column broadside against prohibi-' tion taken from the columns of the Courier-Journal . and undoubtedly written by Marse Henry aimscif. It i3 great stuff in its way, for its author is a genius and it is no trou- ble for a genius to make the worse appear the better part when he 18 moved to do so. But we will have aone of it. The aroused world is placing the seal of its condewnation upon the liquor traffic as an evil without one redeeming feature, and the work will go on until the reform is complete. \Vatterson leads :. fcr- lorn hope and his cause. is doomed. L The editor of the Jacksonville State says that he would like to serve on a jury drawn to try the man who first originated technical- ities in the administration of jus-, tice. Technicalities in their place, are indispensible, because they are rules prescribing precision, and THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAKELAND, FLA., OCT. 17, The hostile armies in France seem to have reached thc stage of an unbreakable deadlock in their military operations, but i¢ the Kais- er sends the several huandred thou- sand troops down there he used to capture Antwerp, something ought to happen there in a few days of a decisive character. The world is hunery for results. , ——0 Miami wants the next annual State reunion of the Confederate veterans after Lakeland getsthrough with them, and that fine little city would be an elegant place for the old soldiers to meet. But there will doubtless be other contestants, for it is an honor worth seeking to en- tertain this fast diminishing com- pany of gray old men who helped to make the biggest and most enthral- ling chapter in the history of this country. —_— Senator West, of Georgia, who wag the first to speak yesterday in the Senate on the proposition to have the government lend $250,- 060,000 to the Southern farmers on their cotton, takes the same view of the subject that the Telegram does. He says that relief should come ‘from action taken by the varicus cotton States and individual citizens and that the federal governmeut should not be called on. The precedent would be a very bad one and would not only divert the government from its true and only function, which is to govern, but would aistinetly dis- courage the spirit of seif-depend_ ence in the people, which is one of the most valuable moral assets any nation can poOssess. O NDAY'S BIG SALE OF NE- " BRASKA HORSES AT TAMPA The best drove of business horses that has been in Tampa for some time arrived this week. J. A. Damewood, of Grand Island, Neb., brought in a fine drove of farm and aeneral purpose stock. Ten head of “cow ponies” that are quick and trim. Ten head of good farm mares i for the plow and grove work. Some | ‘biz gray horses for heavy hauling purposes. A number of good busi- ness chunks. In fact, he has some of | “all kinds to select from. ‘ Mr. Damewood is anxious to sell | this stock before leaving for thel Whest, and will do so at a great sac-; rifice to close them out. They ar(\i now at the Tampa Horse and Mule ! Exchanze, where they can be seen and tried by intending purchnsers.' The Nebraska horses are known for their strength and dnrability and rugged workers. His stock is all guaranteed to be right in every way, and the kind that will give satis- faction. He has instructed the Tampa Horge and Mule Exchange to close every remaininz horse to the hl[;h-I 'ost and last bidder at auction th|s| Monday, Oct. 19th, beginning at 10 in the forenoon. Those in need of geod horses should be on hand. 3296 — The Woman’s Club will hold a bargain sale Thursday. Mrs. Blan- charge of this sale, appeal to every- without precison there would be'one who may have clothes or other no adequate system or method. The articles to contribute to phone or trouble comes from the outrageous seo them immediately misuse of technicalties, 1u which the spirit and purpose of the law is lost sight of in its mere ietter, and an absurd rigidity in non-essentials | is required, as fatal to justice as it is destructive to common sense. There isn’t a single technicality in the Decalogue and yet any man charged with offense against it, could get a fair trial before a sen- sible judge whose mind was not afflicted with the technical obses- sion, without depriving him of any just right and his guilt or innocence be much more certainly and speedily determined. RISETS S The Miami Herald criticizes the official report of State Game and Fish Commissioner Jones because he put some poetry in along about the end of it. \We read that poetry and it was good poetry, pertinent to the subject, and, while it is something of an innovation, it s one that might be followed to advantage by other officials. It lends a certain literary grace and charm to what might be otherwise prosaic reading and makes a human interest story, as it were, of a document good in itself, but all the better for this graceful associa- tion with the Muses. When a public official is writing about the fasci- nating wild life of the woods and urging us to cease from its wantou waste and destruction, he is appeal- ing to the truest poetry in us, not less than to our sense of economic values; and, if he can gild his story and emphasize his words by apt quo- tations from the poets, or even poetry of his own, he has strength- ened his plea and assured it a wider reading. That report is all right, and Commissioner Jones is ‘ onto hig job” with an intelligent zeal that some other public servants would do well to emulate, WANTED—I am in the market to buy any kind of second hand building material.
