Cannonism
And Matrimony.
. A eneclal from Washington to the
New York Sun follows, and is full ol
human interest :
People all over the country write to
Speaker Cannon about everything.
But the prise package In the way of a
request dropped in on Uncle Joe today
in the form of a perfectly respectable
letter, which says: "Our beaux 'can
not marry we girls because all foods
and clothing is too high. What good
is us girls if we do not hare husbands?
Why don't you make congress provide
' htutbands for m? You will do the
country, more good by seeing that ail
the young people are man-ted. ' If all
the young people were married we
would not need any congress or presi
dent. This world would then be a
paradise. We must have husbands.
flo mnma tnr lid "
- For reasons or the most proiouna
delicacy the girl's name is omitted, but
the letter is postmarked Cleveland, O.
' That little girl ought to be writing
philosophy for sale to the -big maga
zines instead of penning a note to
Uncle Joe Cannon, who doubtless will
also stand pat on this as he does on
other proposed innovations.
There is an undercurrent of excel
lent, and perhaps unconscious irony in
the note to Jthe speaker. Not that
there is a lack of boys in a receptive
mood, but rather a lack of boys who
have the courage to tackle the mam
monial problem on $15 or $20 per
week, is her missive ironical. There
are worlds of deserving young men
who revolt at the future which
bachelorhood holds out, yet who are
too proud to take a smiling young
dame from her home of luxury into a
boarding house or a ten-by-fourteen
flat heated by an oil stove. ;
The average young man who can
read and who is able to put the brakes
on when he feels that enlargement ot
the heart like the sap rising in a
white oak tree coming on; who
knows what ails him when he falls 1n
love, and is able to overcome the sun
rays of her merry eyes for once, is not
going to rush heedlessly Into a whirl-
...! M t 1 J I -
inrut ui struggle sua cuul in lace ui
present conditions.
The young man of today is forced to
blot from his soul those sentimental
and liner qualities which inspired our
fathers. If he isn't an heir, and has
no such prospects In view; if he is just
one of us ordinary fellows who must
work every day except Sunday to
make ends meet, the young man of to
day knows that marriage is too serious
a proposition to enter without "due
consideration." He knows that, with
meat making a record breaking rise
each day, along with house rent and
other things he must have, two can
not live as "cheap as one," as was
taught him. He cannot give to the
young wife as many pretty dresses as
6he has been accustomed to; he can
not give her a new piano in a new and
nicely furnished home with lovely pic
tures on the wall and flowers in the
yard. He sees that he cannot marry
and live if he would don a new tailored
suit occasionally and smoke a good
cigar after supper. He is simply face
to face with the undeniable proposition
that his salary is not commensurate
with the amount he must needs ex
pend if he would live, in the event of
matrimony.
Many of our unmarried young men
cannot be led very far under that old
spell of "love in a cottage." Marriage
today is largely a business proposition
and he who does not regard it as such
will have cause to learn his lesson
well after he enters the market to buy
the weekly supply of produce for he
and wifey.
We doff our hat to the little woman
who wrote to Uncle Joe for aid. He
Is one of the very few who are indi
rectly responsible for the present revo
lutionary trend against matrimony.
They engineered the very laws whicn
baUa a, handful of individuals to lay
any price on the necessaries of life
they choose and thus frighten from
the altar thousands of young men each
year.
Talk about your race suicide all you
please, Col. Roosevelt, but your own
party is a greater menace to society in
that one respect than all the "suicides'
in Christendom!
It is a terrible arraignment to hold a
political organization, or a set of reput
able men, responsible for this, but
there is no other conclusion to reach
when we look facts straight in the
face.
We are all boycotters of the poets'
trust.
Oh! say now, te the baby growing as
fast as the grocery bill?
If Atlanta were situated in Florida
she would have something to boast of.
An occasional call down keeps us
from getting upstairs betore the lignt
is turned on!
A Little Cold.
He caught a little cold ,
That was all.
So the neighbors sadly said.
As they gathered round his bed.
When they beard that he was dead.
He caught a little cold
That was all.
(Puck.)
Neglect of a cough or cold often
leads to serious trouble. To break up
a cold in twenty-four hours and cure
any cough that is curable, mix two
ounces of Glycerine, a half ounce of
Virgin Oil of Pine compound pure and
eight ounces of pure Whisky. Take a
teaspoonful every four hours. You can
buy these at any good drug store and
easily mix them in a large bottle.
THE WITHDRAWAL OF
JUDGE L. J. REEVES.
His Motive.
Judge L. J. Reeves, of Pensacola,
has likewise withdrawn from the sen
atorial race. The withdrawal of Sen
ator Blount several weeks ago left
Judge Reeves without a motive. Pa
latka News.
Favored Reeves.
The announcement in this morning's
papers, that Judge I. J. Reeves had
retired from the race for the United
States eenatorshlp was no surprise to
us. Knowing Judge Reeves' delicate
physical condition as we did, we
doubted from the first whether he
would be able to stand the strain of
the canvas, yet we sincerely regret
that he has been compelled to retire.
Of all the candidates in the field, he
was our decided choice for the posi
tion and while we felt that it would
be hard for him to win against Sen
ator Taliaferro, he would have grown
stronger at every step in the canvas
and that he had at least a fighting
chance to win the race. Bartow
Courier-Informant.
Our gophers are never noisy, but
their constancy is something to be
marveled at.
Any way, it won't be long before the
baseball season opens and that will
help us to forget most of our troubles.
Then, too, there are those who will
pay the price of pinching humiliation
just for the notoriety the public prints
afford.
New Hampshire has a woman candl
date for .governor. She probably
stands as good show of election as
some men in the Granite State.
Meat made another record-breaking
rise Monday. In that particular meat
is breaking more records and men
than two Wright aeroplanes.
People are commuting suicide in
preference to trying o live under the
present system. My, but the Repub
licans will have lots to answer for!
A regular job means that you won't
be tempted to get into quite so much
devilment, although you are at a de
cided disadvantage in out talking your
creditors.
Better quit starving yourself, friend,
and go to eating meat again. By the
time your boycotting ardor has cooled,
beef will have enhanced in value so
much that you can't buy it at all.
They have spring, birds and 6un
shine In other states, we understand,
but the birds don't sing as loud nor as
sweetly, spring doesn't come as early
and the sunshine isn't quite so bright
and cheerful as in Florida.
Nobody in the senate came to Hey
burn's rescue, but Representative HoL.
llngsworth of Ohio makes a speech in
Dayton, commending the man from
Idaho. The senate and house have
one each now, but neither body is
bragging about it.
Florida cannot be charged with hav
ing a foreign nobleman as the hus
band of one of her daughters. Our
girls are very select in their taste.
We wouldn't recognize a piece of
royalty strolling around in these parts.
He'd attract as much attention for the

from the cloudless sky.

Mr. G. T. Roberts of Resaca, Ga.,
R.F.D. No. i, Box 43, writes : "I have
used your Liniment on a horse for Swee

so removed a spavin on a mule. This
spavin was as large as a guinea egg. In
my estimation the best remedy for lame
Bess and soreness is i

Mr. H. M. Gibbs, of Lawrence, Kans.,
R.F.D. No. 3, writes: "Your Lini

I had a mare with an abscess on her neck
and one 50c. bottle of Sloan's Liniment
entirely cured her. I keep it around all
the time for galls and small swellings
and for everything about the stock."
