Seeking Florida's Surplus.

rather curious bill was introduced into
the Florida legislature the other day. 1t
may be that me of the members thought
it was intended for a joke when they heard
it read for the first time. Doubtless they
have found out that there is no joke in it.
1t provides that the state shall pay the
counties the expenses they incurred in
maintaining quarantine last summer If
this bill were to become a law the tax rate
would have to be increased considerably.
At least $500, 900 would be required to meet
its requirements.
1t is not easy to understand the grou ID
upon which the state is asked to pay these
guarantee bills. The state did not author
iz9 the counties to est 1blish quara tines,
and, il fact, the state would have been a
great deal better of if there had bsen less
interruption of business a I'D travel
by quarantine regulations. Ia many H.
stances quarantine was unnecessary, ami
accomplished no good. 1t kept the people
alarmed and untitled them for occupation
or business of any kind.
But the counties that established quaran-
tine reg gulations did so to protect themselves.
Do they want the counties that suffered
from the fever to help pay them for guard
ing themlelveSs
The counties that escaped the fever ought
to be thankful that they did so at such a
small cost. Those that were afflicted with
it would have gladly paid almost any sum
for quarantine if they could have kept the
fever outside of their limits y that means.
1t will be good while bsfore any county
gets from the sta. o what it paid for sup
porting quarantine, and if county were
required to show that its quarantine was
effective before it could get the cost of the
same, it is pretty certain that it would
never get anything
