The Kllllax 81. stock ~ Ratlreaes'
To tie Editors n tss Floridian..
The want Of a law In this State compelling
railroad companies to pay for stock killed oy
them, in my opinion, is not only grievance to
the stock owners thus damaged, but is an injus-
tee which is seeking satisfaction by violence to
persons connected with the roads who are en-
tirely innocent of any wrong. One conductor Is
said already to have been shot aud wounded,
the reported Indictment to the outrage being
the failure of the railroad authorities to compen-
safe owners for stock killed by their engines.
We had a law meeting this necessity which our
Supreme Court pronounced unconstitutional. l
hand you for publication a copy of one pro-
nounced constitutional by the Supreme Court of
the United States, and which have no doubt
would be so pronounced by the. Supreme Court
of Florida, the provisions of which Tin sub
starfce) hope will be embodied in the enact
ments flour next Legislature.
Very respectfully, r. B. HILTON.
