am not prepared to say that the law
enacted by the Twentieth legislature is
the best law that could be devised, OF
that it is entirely faultless, but believe
that the state under the present pubic
land policy will be able to so dispose of its
great landed interest belonging to her
public schools, as to secure from them a
revenue, instead of their remaining nom
productive and thereby. depressing the
people with increased taxes, when the
means are at hand for relieving them in
a great part, and at the same time not
retard settlement or prevent the hardy
pioneer from occupying these waste
places as a settler in good faith. And
without claiming that the Judgment of the
officials who have attempted to carry
out the provisions of this law has been
always unerring, it is an encouraging cir
cumstance that its enforcement has ere
ated but little friction, and for the re-
suits we invite your attention to the re-
port of the commissioner of the general

hesitate to dispense with this safeguard

importance is emphasized when
we contemplate the effects of the
recent terrible epidemic which spread its
freightage of disaster and ruin through
out Florida, when her whole people were
bowed and trembling under the dreadful
scourge; with her industries paraIyzed
and commerce wholly suppressed; while
want, peStiIence and death were joining

our people from the imminent peril of
such scourge should justly entirle him
to the thanks Of all. His report is sub
