We'll wager no shoe would dare lay claim to purity after it had once enveloped one of the Hon. | Bill's Trilbys.

We can build the | best city in Florida with co-opera- | tion and the enthusiasm that should ! actuate every citizen. s The Legislature is saving at the spigot by refusing to print copies of | the daily journals, through which at previous sessions many persons were kept informed as to the proceedings at Tallahassee. Good! Now watch the bung, brethren, and see that an economy stopper is applied there, also. The visitors from the North to Lakeland—in fact, all who come to this city—say it is the cleanest place they find anywhere.

Hundreds of historical incidents might be cited to show how the per- | sonal adventure of a trifle has enor- mously changed the face of human affairs. 11! If you can look back over your own experience in life and say, “if so and so had not happened’"— And that “if” at the time seemed but a trivial thing. Great events have turned on such a trifle as the cackling of the geese that saved Rome. Personal events may be traced to such small things as the sneeze of a child, the smile of a woman, five minutes’ delay, the missing of a train—links in the chain of events have changed the zenship and the efficiency of its gov- ernment. If Frank Harris had to be ill, it is eminently fit that he should have that exclusive and gentlemanly ail- ment, the gout, instead of some com- mon or plebian disease. Score an- course of a life. 1!

It was said that in one of the most excited sessions of this congress, Prince Bismarck, while earnestly and vigorously ad- dressing some very plain words to the Russian plenipotentiary, the old Prince Gortschakoc, suddenly and with much vehemence stamped his foot upon the floor, whereupon the great Pomeranian Mastiff, which al- ways followed Prince Bismarck, sprang at the aged Gortschakoff and would probably have fastened his great' tusks in the Russian's throat had not Bismarck seized him by his iron collar and dashed him, stun- ned and almost lifeless upon marble pavement. - closely with human destiny. ! i | | | In the realm of business it is an | adage that “trifles make perfection, but perfection is no trifle.” It is so of morals.

It is the gen- eral idea that editors suffer from complaints exactly autithetical to that caused by high living. A BN Think of the average of intelli- gence of a county that will send a fellow like Bill Mapoles to the Leg- | islature for two terms! We can con- ceive that, as a foolish and expen- sive joke, he might be elected once; but to repeat the operation is to acknowledge that ignorance and as- sininity are the chief things county has to be represented. » We have for sale, at a great sac- rifice, several thousand copies of “The Suffragist,” a suffragette pa- per, whose editor, publisher or busi- ness manager we are unable to lo- cate, but whose printer we find se- curely, and, we fear, inextricably, in the hole.

We believe this is due to having trained in such a live town as Lake- land—they just got a Lakeland move on themselves. Regarding JFlorida as a training ground, the St. Petersburg Times says: It was more than a coincidence that three of the four big league teams which trained in Florida won the opening games of the season. The Phillies, who trained in St. Pet- Tampa, beat the St. Louis Cardinals. The Brooklyn team was the only one which came to Florida for spring training that lost the open- ing game, going down to defeat he- fore the Giants. o¥ This could not be just an acci- dent. It has more back of it than htat. The fact that three of the four teams trained in Florida won from their rivals shows that the teams which came to Florida for the spring preliminary work are in condition. \m-y went into the zame fit and ready to play mid-season ball and the other teams were not ready. The two Boston teams are picked by many persons as the winners in the two leagues. Be that as it may, it is a fact that the two Boston teams are strong and that the two Phila- delphia teams are not as strong as | they have been. The Braves are world champions, yet they went " down easily before Grover Alexan- der, and the Philadelphia Nations., thel ersburg, downed the Boston Nation- als; the Athletics, who trained in Jacsonville, beat the Boston Amerl-' cans; the Cubs, who trained lnl { ; i In Large and Improved and Unimproved i worth more than half the Small Tracts SUITABLE FOR Fruit, Truck and General Farming UnimproYed and Improved Samples 23,000 ACRES—In Polk County at $6.00 per acre.
