CIVIL SERVICE REFORM IN
FLORIDA.

About two months ago one of the
most prominent democrats in the
state, in discussing the difficulties
which await the constitutional CON
vention, suggested that the fears of
the black belt rs to negro domina-
ton might be removed by the crca-
ton of a board Of civil service cx-
aminers to which should be left the
selection of our county officers.
Without assuming credit for any
originality in the matter, we simply
suggested his idea, and waited de-
velopments. 1t was taken up by
the Times Union, and that journal
has been noticed by prominent cN-
changes in the north which have lit
tie faith in the practically Of the
scheme, but thinks its mere suggcs-
ton shows how far the principles of
Cleveland's administration are pen
etrating the south. SO far we cared
nothing, but of late several state pa
pcrs possessing real influence with
our people have taken up the idea,
and the matter is now worthy of Sc
rious thought.
We think it may be taken fol
granted that the calling of the con
stitution, grew out of the feeling OF
our people that we should elect oul
county officers. Now if SO, there
would be no real change effected 10y
giving the appointing power to /
board instead of the governor. L
the board were appointed by tn,
state executive, it would be a new
piece of machinery as costly anl
useless as a fifth wheel to a wagon
if the board were elected by The
people, it would be useless as our el
ectoral college. The governo
would be the real power in one case
and the people in the other, Will,

Not So Easy for Men TO Fly.

Industrial American.
With wings of any moderate spread a
horse power is able to lift about %
pounds. To lift $50 pounds, the average
weight of a man, calls for G-horse power
while mans power is estimated to be
about one-ffth of n horse power when
eXerted to the greatest advantage. In
other words, if the machinery for the
purpose weighed nothing, mems strength
must be increased 30 times at least be-
fore he can sustain himself in the air.
Even then he could fly only in a calm.
1t has been stated that the average We
locity Of air currents at a distance above
the earth is 20 miles per hour These
must be met and overcome 10y any flying
apparatus before it can be successful.
These facts ought to be enough to settle
one side of the question at least. Men
cannot hope to fly by muscular exertion.
Any flying apparatus must weigh less
than % pounds per horse power in order
to sustain itself, and if supported by a
balloon must be even lighter.
