Mr. Steel is a man of good, upright character and in every way qualified to fill thu position and as the "third term" doctrine was squelched at Chicago, the present in cumbent should step down.

Approaching Its End. The lovely month of May is approaching its end, and Rogue liver valley continues to be clothed with an exquisite mantle of verdure and flowers. We doubt whether Florida with all her aromatic floral beauty can make a better show ing in this respect than our own mountain-locked valley. A visit at this time to Peter Eritt's botanical gardens, where a great variety of the beautiful flowers confront the eye in every di rection, will not only convince the ob server of tho truthfullness of the above remark but will imptess the mind most favorably. The scented magnolia, the velvet Emperor Napoleon rose, the grand cactus bloom and the hundreds of other objects of botanial and floral beautys, atlbrd a rare treat to the lov ers of tho beautiful. The same can be said of nearly ever' yard or garden in Jacksonville. Prominent umong these aio the tront yards ot Mrs. Ivubli, Mrs. Pane, Mrs. Beekman, Mrs.Helms, and very many others.
