 .Ji-Seditor saie t tells
why Hon. R.. W,'Davis was de- tg
feated for Oovernor, as will be seen n
by the following, from the Saven- lI
nah Morning NetWs: b
4 "Moultrie, Ga., June 15.-Ex- tl
Senator Samuel Peaco of Florida W. I
in the city for a few days with 'h. h
daughter. He says thi eitijg I
Plbor$a primary was 1h. wa*iuwt "'
political contest PFlbrid, s lA id in
years. *This ts alrst ex-
periment wi th .t primary,'
said Senator P .', *"iW have had i
thopdrimav it Uty nomination 1I
fX r aptomt19 l, but this is the first t
time thtipeople have voted direct C
otr <ndlkdates 16r Governor.' "
"'"When asked it he thought the '
experiment a satisfactory one lie s
replied with some reserve, but in- p
dicated that there were objections i
to it and much will depend on the c
final outcome of the contests, etc. I
It was no surprise to him that
Davis was defeated. As he ex.
pressed it. Davis Was 'pmied up i
with Standard Oil which eaeced ls I
defeat.' avis is personall- &very. i
admirable man, but be'made alig-. I
ments with Tallaferto and other 1
Standard Oil candidates that caus- I
ed him.to be defeated.'
 "Senator Pasco said Taliaferro I
though comparatively an unknown
man in his State, was able to pull i
through, being aided materially by I
ample campaign support snd.strong I
corporations. Broward, the nmosn-
nee for Governor, Senator Pasco
regards as a very acceptable man, 4
whose administration will be inde.
pendet of trust influences. Snena-
tot Pauco will j6 from here to St.
Xoufs to see the fair and wilt re.
main over for the Democratic con-
vention."

 One of the most appal ing disast
 eor hi the history ol New York was
 caused last Wednesday by the burn-.
 ing of'the General Stocum. a three
 decked excursion steatmer itt the
 East river at.the entrance to Long
 Island Bound and the death, by
 burning and drowning, of more
 than five hundred human beings,
 mostly woman and children. It
 was an occasion of a Sunday
 school picnic excusionists. The
 captain of the Ill-fated steamer was
 placed under arrest. He says he
 knows not how .the fire started.

 i When it began to be known
 that Broward had been nominated
 some of the Davis papers began to
 say that the "backwoods" vote
 was coming in and was likely to
 elect Broward. Of couse suce pap
 era consider the "backwoods"
 voters very Ignorant, but it is
 a fact that some of the best people
 on earth are those whom the cor-
 poration papers consider "back-
 woodaers," and they sometimes-as
 probably om last Tuesday-saved
 the State.


 Iowa Masons declared against
liquor dealers last week. No sa-
loon keeper will hereafter be per-
mitted to Join the fraternity in Iowa.
The- Orand Lodge of liorids took.
similar action several years ago and
other states should, and will follow.

 If the people ot Aladhsa county
would only remember that the
corporations and nonresidents pay
more than halt the taxes, possibly
they would become willing to see
taxes levied for the purpose of
building hard roods

 An exchange says a thread of
spider silk is decidedly stronger
than a bar o steel he same ai.
what we would liKe to know Is who
whittled the bar of steel down to
the comparing size?

 Tom P. Mceath presided over
the meetings of the Florida Press
Association in Jacksonville this
week with much dignity. Presi-
dent McBeath sounds very well.
 Hon. Henry 8. Chbb.. of this

The Priden is showtinKblelf I
o be a. pretty bshrewd pollticitn,
otwithatanding the fact that he is
laughed at for 'hbe. posing as a
reocho. buster. .He .1s insisting
bat Mr. Cannon, the speaker of the
ItoU hall be the Republlcau
iiq*Iupe for Vice President, and
tr, Root shall he the Republican
indidate" for Goversno' of New
Vork.
Anid why dues he insistt upon
Canton and Root? Because there
s some doubt about his carrying
llinois and New York. and he
hinksthey would assist hlins. Mr.
Cannon is very popular in Illinois.
His name on the ptedidenti il ticket
would be worth a goo4 manyv thou-
and votes to It, and Mr. Roor ia
popular in New.York. It is prob-
able that he could. 'come nearer
carrying that State than any other
Republican that could be named. P
 Mr. Cannon, however, doea't
want the nomination for Vice Pres.
dent and isn't going to take it if
hie can avoid doing so without mak-
ing too many enemies in his party.
He prefers the place he has .and
would rather take the chance of
being re-elected to it than to be
named for the second place on the
presidential ticket.
 Mr. Root is even more emphatic
in his desire to keep out of politics
for the present. He resigned his
place in the cabinet in order to get
back to his law practice. He waint-
ed, he said' to provide a compet-
ency for his family.
 The President, however seems
to think his political fortunes are
of more consequence to his friends
than their own can possibly be to
them and.so it is said, he is Insist-
ilg that Mr. Root an4 Mr. Cannon
shall abandon their plans and come
to his assistance.-Savannah News.
 The Tampa Times in terribly up-
set. Monday it came out with a
three-column "scare head," a part
of which read as follows: "The
Stockton.Browardl Gang Guilty of
Flagrant Outrages." It then went
on to publish a lot of mess with the
hope that the public would swallow
the false statements and believe
that the "Stockton-Broward Gang"
had been more corrupt than was
the "Taliaferro.Davis Gang." 'The
fact is we duio't believe the editor
of the Times would believe any
man on his oath who would state
that there had eIen more fraud on
the Stockton. Broward side tlian on
the Taliaferrn-Dtvis side. It's
enough to caSii.e satan to .siii.il to
hear Rditor MIcKny talk nhonti
fraud among the Stockton-Briw ird
forces. ____
 Some of the disgruntled onus pre-
 tend to fear that Governor Brow-
 ard Is going to remove .tht East
 Florida Seminary from Gainesville.
 01 course he'll do it. Just as soon
 as he gets Evergreen cemetery
 moved to Gulf Hammock, aud
 Alasha county's fine court house
 moved from Gajnesville to Para-
 dise, he will at once proceed to
 move East Florida Seminary-any.
 where just to be moving. The
 "skaraed" ones would better begin
 to say, "Now look here, Governor.
 Broward, behave youjsel."
 If "nothing succeeds like suc-
 cess" Tallatenro and Clark must be
 aII right.--Times- Union.
 Wasn't there a man by the name
 of Broward, who was "cook on a
 teamboat" successful in the race
 for Governor. But then the T.-U.
 was agin Browqar.-Daily Capital.
 .Some of Hon, W. ,avIs,


friends ay he will be a candidate
for Governor four years hence. It
he ever becomes a candidate again
and will shake ol the Times-Union
and East Coast railroad and be the
peoples candidate, he wil make a
better run, and pay be ejected.
 Among the more or less oimort.
 ant gatherings for Jacksonville this
 week may be mentioned the Bank-
 er's ASocdatioU' the State Press
 Assoolation and the State Demo-

 Judge Parker, one of the prospec-
