Pins, arrows, bullets, shells, schrapnel and all the other devices of attack, destruction and death used in modern newspaper warfare rebound from the impenetrable hide of the T.-U. without any visible effect and there is no fun whatever in assailing that kind of an adver- sary.

Y S jWe note that the pastors in Kis, simmee are agitating for the estab: [\ lishing in Florida of what they call “a clean daily State ' newspaper,” which, to meet their requirements, must not issue a Sunday edition, nor insert liquor advertising, print the sermons of the so-called Pastor Russell, and whicn is friendly to the cause of prohibitlon. Gentle- men of the Kissimmee Ministerial Association, you need agitate no further. Your quest is at an end ere it is well begun, for we have the honor to inform you that the Lake- land Daily Telegram is precisely the kind of goods you have fully de-liquor-adized, Russellized, warmly cause of prohibition, issued on Sunday, abounding virtues not specified in your bill of particulars. We court inspection and challenge investization, and when these Kissimmee ministers are fully satisfied ag to the impeceability of this paper we call upon them to boost for us right along with their' congregations a truly good and great moral orzan, absolutely free from all forms of germs or bacilli deleterious to moral or spiritual health, with every issue fresh from a prophylactic bath, so to speak, and perfectly safe to take into the most | fastidious and exacting homes in the specified, de-Pastor attached to the not printed nor and richly I | in many other merits and | er, {the Kidney | they State.
