A. EDWARDS, Clerk' Subscribe for the Home Journal Children Cry for Pitcher’s Castoria FLORIDA AS IT iS Suggestions from a Former Georgian, v Written for The Hove Jouhnal. Live Oak, Fla., June 20th, 1891. Florida bas been the home of the writer since December 1877. Circumstances have, until now, prevented responses to verbal re quests before I came, and written solicitations since, for information respecting the country. As a let ter to each is impracticable now, I propose a compliance through the columns of The Home Journal. Much has been written and pub lished about Florida, and tolerably correct ideas and conclusions may be drawn from these effusion, as to the most desirable portions and !o calities, provided due allowances are made for the play of the imag ination and fancies of the authors, who,for the most part, are tourists, pleasure and health seekers-'flnd newspaper correspondents.. These, having ample time and means, pass hurriedly over our highways and visit only the popular resorts, en joying the splendid appointments and sumptuous fare of the palatial hotels, cars and steamers, and the homes of the rich and well-to-do. These come in winter, when to the invalid, the convalescent and the robust lovers of pleasure, the cli mate is exquisitely lovely. As sum mer approaches they leave us, to enjoy and write np favorite resorts in higher latitudes. They know, and consequently write and say nothing about onr summer; pre cious little about our lovely spring and fall seasons. It is..truethat the descriptive talent of these people could find a richer field if they would come in summer as well as in winter,and divide their time be tween tbeir favorite resorts and the country. Experience is known to be the'best teacher, and they could then bette tell all who think of em igrating to Florida what to expect the year round; how best to utilize the advantages and checkmate and surmount their opposites. Serious ly, this suggestion should be stressed, for the reason that the discouragements, losses and ca lamities inflicted upon the credu lous who are induced to come by partial reports are hurtful,.and in many instances heartrending. For the afflicted the great and good Creator seems to have plant ed this unique portion of His han diwork in this genial sunny clime, under its clear blue covering stud ded with millions of brightest stars lit with the’,brilliancy and increas ed silvery sheen of semi-tropical sun and moon, continuously mov ing its soft atmosphere given, and describd by himself iD Ecclesias tics 1st and 6th, and made it a san itarium where health may be res tored, the pains of disease allevi ated, and the approaches as well as the presence of death itself are made more tolerable. But, with all these and more, Florida is not an Eden. Here, as well as elsewhere, the fragments of the original garden are mixed end mingled with the losses and penal ties incurred by the destruction. Thorns and thistles grow, storm clouds and beating rains spend tbeir fury, sinking waters and even the eartkquake'shock, disease and sickness bring anxiety and induce fears and a longing for a home ex empt from these; but where can it be found! Where? While I would not and do not refuse to tell this, I do not and cannot hesitate to say after a residence of more than ten years here, that I am satisfied that as good, desirable and healthful ! homes can be built np in Florida as in aDy other countrj/or clime. The breaking np of life-long as sociations, scenes and attachments, and moving far rway, is a step in life which, to be wisely taken,must be maturely, seriously and dis creetly considered beforehand,each one for himself, and herself. A highly wrought and partial account of what is met with and seen hereon a flying trip, or dur ing a few weeks or months so journ, or by another whose fancies arc naturally excited by comforts fully met by a! semi-tropical cli mate and scenery, and the appoint ments that only a fall pnrse can command do not represent Florida as it is, or furnish sufficient data for a safe estimate, or calculation, as to what one who makes his or her permanent home in this state may expect. .

S. JobsOn. A BTJSHEL^)F MEAL. Monroe Advertiser. Two pounds of meal is a small matter to write about; but 46 pounds don’t make a bushel of meal, and he who sells you 46 pounds for a bushel commits the same crime es he who sells yon a spavined horse fora sound horse. Where the miller or merchant furnishes the sack, and sacks the meal, two pounds of meal is little enough for him to charge,. There is still objection to the rule. It af fords the seller an opportunity of charging twice for the sack and sacking; once by taking off the two pounds—twice by putting an an additional price for sacking and then deducting the two pounds. Better put 48 pounds in the sack and charge for the sack; or do as most honest merchants do, notify the buyer that there are only 46 pounds in the sack, but the charge is so much. This puts the buyer upon notice, and he buys at Ins own risk. There is another objection to the rule. Custom over-rides law—cus tom makes law. If the miller con tinues this practice, soon the law wall recognize 46 pounds as a bush el, thus allowing the miller two pounds more than is now allowed. By just such sly innovations on the part of business men, and by criminal acquiescence on the part of consumers, have all the great wrongs been fastened on the con suming class. Grasping cupidity on the one hand, and criminal in difference on the other, have been the chief causes of slavery the world over, and have been the dynamite that has destroyed the governments of the earth.

The farmers shonld not be mis led by such arguments as these. The simplest investigation of the facts will prove that "they are not' correct The entire revenues of the gov ernment are raised by means of this tariff. There is no other source from which a single dollar comes into the national treasury. It is levied upon various articles, upon nearly every article, in fact, used for food, raiment, and for their production. It has been properly said that the American farmer taxed by this tariff from sunrise to sundown, and from sundown to the coming of the morning. It taxes the clothes lie wears and the food he consumes; the plows and hoes he uses in the cultivation of his crops; the chair in which he sits at noon and night, and the table from which, and the knife and fork with which he eats: It draws its trib ute from the lamp which he lights at night, and the bed and bedding which he sleeps. He cannot escape it and live. It is with him every moment, and walks and sleeps by bis side, and even ' when he dies it follows him to his grave in his coffin and mingles with bis dust in his burial robe. Still, not vital! If the tariff is not vital, what question is? The money which the tariff draws from him every moment, waking and sleep ing, would remain in bis pnrse were that tariff removed. It would remain in circulation and not be thrown into the vaults of the treas ury and thence into the coffers of the manufacturers and holders of non-taxable bonds. The amount of money saved to the masses is in proportion to the amount they pay towards the sup port of the government Statistics show that the farmers pay eighty per cent, of the taxes of the United States. This tax comes only throngh the tariff. Is it not plain, therefore, were this tariff removed, eighty per cent, of the revenues of the government would remain with the farmers? The fact is too evi dent to require argument. How can the National Econo mist, or any other organ having at heart the prosperity of the masses, conscientiously advise the farmers not to disease and advocate a re duction of the tariff? That tariff secures a half billion of dollars an nually, of which, according to the Economist’s own fignres, four hun dred millions are paid by the far mers. Why should not that five hundred millions, or fully twenty dollars per capita, remain in the pockets of the farmers? Why should it not remain in circulation instead of being drawn into gov ernment vaults? The tariff is a vital matter to the farmers. It is a vital matter to eve ry wage earner and laborer in this anion. To declare that its reduc tion and reform would not benefit the farmers is to make an asser tion the facts will not for a mo ment sustain. The tariff is not alone responsi- ble 0 for the depressed condition of the agricultural and laboring class- ess, but it is largely so. It has been a powerful factor in building up trusts and monopolies and cre ating a plutocracy. If the farmers abandon the tariff as an issue, they will have abandoned • one of their most powerful strongholds and re leased a measure which would bring them relief. Arguments ad vising them to abandon it should be thoroughly sifted. to work, and who are diligently at work in obedience to God’s com mand. While this is true, it is al so true that we will find many who are not thus, and not a few who cannot be properly classed save it be in the line of vagrants. And a close observation will satisfy any one that this class is increasing throughout this country. They comprise the non-workers, who produce nothing, do nothing, have no visible means of snpport.no em ployment and seek none. They are to be found in large cities, small cities, towns, villages, and in the country. They are passing through this world living on the labor of others, and are not only dead weights, bat evil nuisances in any community in which they hap pen to be. Out of this class natu rally develop burglars, thieves and robbers. - They have no pride'of character, no ambition, no aspira tion, but are simply self abandon ed idlers, profligates and roaming tramps. An exchange says of them: “They are able-bodied men, but it soon becomes evident that they have no occupation, and are seek ing none. - They fill the legal defi nition of vagrancy - by having no visible means of support, aud by leading idle and dissolute lives. Their presence in a city is a con stant-menace to its peace, its mor als and its property. They live upon the labor of others, produce nothing, and in the course of time go to swell the ranks of more ac tive criminals.” Yes, they are evidently vagrants and are amenible to the vagrant law. They prowl about the towns and throngh the country simply to seek an opportunity for plunder ing a living from those Adio do work.' There is no channel through which these “dead beat” idlers can be reached except through the va grant law, and its rigid enforce ment, in'every instance, would be a blessing to the whole people. And if the present vagrant law is not sufficiently strong and sweep ing to meet the emergency, it should be made so, and that speed ily. Idleness and vagrancy, which constitute the hot-bed of profliga cy and dissolute habits, shonld not be tolerated anywhere or among any people. Wherever evidencies of these come to the surface the vagrant law should be speedily and rigidly enforced. Touching its enforcement the Atlanta Con stitution says: ‘So long as we ignore the va grancy law, we may expect to see a worthless class in the city recruit ed by the same class in the coun try, and onr streets will swarm with tramping' negroes and a few whites whose labor is actually needed in many lines of employ ment. We must get rid of these nuis ances, or they will take possession of the cities and towns, and make it necessary to double our police force. The vagrancy statute is one of the best laws in our penal code. It does not strike at the honest poor man who is out of work and looking for a job. It is aimed at the fellow who „witb no means of support, is determined to lead an immoral and idle life. “We must put new life into this half-dead statute and carry it out. The beneficial effects of such a course will soon be apparent.” THE POWER OF RAILROADS. Greensboro Heral(l-Journal. Since the .legislature of 1888-89 refused to pass an act enforcing the article of the constitution rein tive to the control of railroads and the preventing ot consolidation, the work of absorption by the Richmond Terminal has steadily progressed until every railroad line in this State, with perhaps oua or two exceptions; is under the sway of JJmt corporation, whose headquarters are in Wall street. One by one lines which checked the way of this anaconda of rail roads have been seized, crushed and swallowed until nothing in the way of appreciable eompetiton re mains. In past.pumbers we have faintly illustrated how the advan tage gained has been used by the railroads to demand whatever they might desire in the way of tariff, and the people have been compell ed to knuckle. The beginning, however, has 'scarcely been made. FOOLISH EXPENDITURES. Sunny South. — We often hear persons make the 1 remark that they can make money bht cannot save it. As-« matter of fact'the explanation of the larger share of poverty in the world lies not in a lack of industry so much as in a lack of economy. Did even half the people lay up what they might from their earning3 the number of the wealthy would be greatly increased. There would too, in- this event, be fewer enor mous fortunes accumulated. For it is a truth, thongh unwillingly admitted to be so, that the few get vastly rich because the many are not prudent in taking care of what they earn. Every man who re solves to live within, his income, and persistently stands to that res olution, removes himself from the risk of becoming a prey for specu lators.

Writing upon this subject, the Macon Evening News says: “Georgians do not kuow how powerfully railroad influence is brought to bear upon the state’s legislature, bat the history of the past will be ns nothing to the fu rare. The Richmond Terminal has taken possession ol Georgia. It is mauagedby tbe shrewdest railroad operators of the age. It is without conscience, seeing naught that stands between it aud success.— Georgia is likely to regret the day the Richmond Terminal invaded this fair commonwealth. “The power of these roads, grow ing year by year as the conceptions of their managers expand and broaden, is soMething thnt some how and’in some way must be met and overcome. Hence it is very necessary that our people awaken to the conditions surrounding them. They must study the meth ods of these invaders, and devise means to hold them to their legiti mate rights, otherwise they will soon become tbe masters, and tbe sovereign people tbeir bounden subjects.” The News is not au alarmist,and the points it sets forth are worthy of study, The power of this giant monopoly shonld be checked be fore it has gained a position of ab solutely invulnerable power. Ef forts to do so in the past have proved futile because the people have been lukewarm. They have allowed specious arguments of shrewd railroad attorneys to move them from a prosecution of their demands. It will be remembered how often it was advanced in the legislature referred to above that the enforcement of the constitu tion wonld stop railroad building in Georgia. Could it have been more effectually stopped than at present under crushing effect of the Ter minal system"? Wonld competition have been as utterly destroyed as at present? Would the railroads of Georgia,and the people who are dependent upon them for trans portation, have been so completely under tbe power of one system and that system under the control of Gould, the wrecker, and his Wall street brothers? The people can study these ques tions, and they can then ascertain whether the abandonment of <he fight on railroad combinations was a wise step. tage; so that every dollar shell do a dollar’s service. This is a form of common sense that is very far from being common. Some in their efforts in this direction de velop a stinginess (bat does not and should not commend itself to general admiration. But the prac tice of a prudent economy which' has in it nothing of niggardliness, demands a sonndness of judgment that is decidedly rare. The num ber of those who become rich with out being unduly close or unjustly grasping tire very small. Some, however,know better than they care . willingly to do. They are not willing to subject tlir-m- elves to the sacrifice which they recognize as necessary to accumu lation. They cannot bring them selves, to forego the gratification of their tastes, though aware that such gratification is unwise. Tims one young man spends a consider able sum in cigars, another much more than is needful iu dress, aud others are lured into extravagance by fondness for fashionable amuse : ments. Perhaps they are never at the pains to count np the jiltje amounts spent for things which they conkl have dispensed with, generally without hurt, aud some times with positive advantage. Nay, some of those who indulge iu these foolish expenditures are very loud in their complaints of being unfairly treated. They insist that they are being uojustly legislated against, or being crashed down by the exactions of capitalists, when the real hindrance to their pros-, perity lies altogether in their fool ish extravagance. Those who are unkind to themselves are rarely just to others. Condition vs. Theory.
