TIE FACTS as THEY ARE.

A prominent Allianceman stated ten
days ago that Governor Fleming had said
to him that he (Fleminy) had many
friends among the Call men, and that he
would consider them in making the ap-
pointment.
The foregoing paragraph from the
Pensacola News of Thursday was
shown to Governor Fleming by a
representative ofthe FLoRIDIAN. who
asked the governor if there was any
truth in it. The governor replied
that the paragraph did not correctly
report what he had stated to an AL
lianceman about that time, which was
in private conversation with the AL
lianceman in his office, and which he
had no reason to suppose was for
newspaper publication.
1.-THE subject under discussion"
said Governor Fleming, "was the
appointment Of Col. Chipley. l
stated as one reason among others
why l did not think it best to ap.
point Col. Chipley, that had some
personal friends among the support
ers Of Mr.. Call, ard that I did not
think it we'll to select from the
whole state the person of all others
whose appointment would be most
Objectionable to them personally"
The governor further said: "The
appointment was rendered to Col.
Davidson without his seeking it and
without the knowledge of any Of Mr..
Calls supporters, nor had Col. Dav-
idson any previous intimation that
| it would be rendered him."

GOOD COUNTRY ROADS.

roads, to enable them to haul their
products to market without killing
their stock and wrecking their wa

Mr.. Isaac B. Potter, chairman of

ment Association; hasrevently issued
a valuable pamphlet entitled "The
Gospel of Good Roads, which is
one of the best educational tracts for
the American farmer ever published.
Mr.. Potter's statistics are especial
ly interesting. He says that the Ur-
ion county, New Jersey, in which
sixty miles of Telford roads have
been built during the past two years,
farm lands have advanced from $50
and $75 an acre to 5000 an acre;
that good authorities say that the
increase in land values alone brought
about in Union county by the new
roads would pay six times over the
cost of every foot of such roads put
down in the state; that near Orange,
New Jersey, land has advanced from
81 200 an acre to $4,000, because Of
new roads. He cautions the farmer
against all halfway kind of good
roads, insisting that the most scien
ti6cally constructed is the cheapest
in the end as well as the best.

WHO FOR PRESIDENT?

The entire democratic press of the
country already devoting consid-
cradle space to discussing the proba-
BILE strength of the several possible
candidates for the presidential nomin-
alton on the democratic ticket, and
it seems to be the almost unanimous
belief that Cleveland stands but little
show of being the party's nominee IN
1882. In recent issue, comment
ing upon the situation the Pensacola
News says:
1t is now generally recognized fact the
country over that, 80 far as the preslden-
tai nomination is concerned, Cleveland is
mot in it," The indications now are that
western man will be selected by the de-
mocracy, and he will be expected to Offset
the disaffection in the East, sure to be en-
rendered by the silver question, in sup
port from republican disaffects in the West
that will counter balance the losses thus Oc
casioned. This, however, is at this time
mere speculation. 1t has been thought
tina, Cleveland would not 90 down without
dragging Hill with him. Hill, however, is
steadily gaining in strength and influence,
| and by the time of the next national con-
vention may prove very acceptable to the
party at large. The chances are that the
party will seek, in its nomination, a~maD
who may be reasonably expected
to retain New York, New Jersey and Con-
necticut for the ticket, and that much will
in all probability constrain it to selection
from the more abundant material of the
East, in which may be named, Hill, Cor
man, Pattison and Russell, either of whom
might be calculated to beget solid east
ern support.
In the West Palmer is practically the
only possibility. Campbell may only be
regarded eligible in the event he shall
defeat Mckinley, while BoieS is scarcely
we'll enough known to be chosen as the
head of the ticket. Grey may only be con
sidered for second place.
With New Jersey and Connecticut sure
for the democracy, New York might be
dispensed with in reasonable assurance
that Illinois will give her electoral vote &c
the democratic candidates. But 1t IS un
fortunately true that presidential years
have an awkward tendency OF restoring
L
Palmer might not be able to bring bis
state into line for the ticket which ht
might head.
II is true that the third party move
ment will inure to the advantage OF tht
democracy, and, as the dieaffec,ion iron
this source will be mainly in the West
returns from that section may embrace
again tor the democracy the states OF lows
and Ohio But this consideration will b,
, rather against the selection of western
man since success in those states is rendere,
probable in the conditions named, and will
more than ever prompt the nomination o
man who will be likely to secure sup
port from sections less promising.
On the whole il would seem that thu
nominee must come from the East, anC
that he will be one of the TOUR mentioned

authorized to levy the tax for school MIR.
poses. Maj. A. ]. Russell, state superinten
dent of public instruction, referred the
matter to Attorney General W. B Lamar
who interprets the two laws as follows.
OFFICE OF ATTORNEY
TALLAHASSEE, FLA, Sept. IA, 1891.
Hon. A. J. RUSSELL, state superintendent
public instruction.:
SIR-1Ou ask, in effect, who is author
lied to levy the tax for school purposes in
the several counties of this state. In replv
l would say that, in my opinion, the board
OF pubic instruction, under the 18th para.
graph of section 20, chapter 1872. laws of
Florida, still has the exclusive authority to
levy this tax.
DO not think that chapter 4012, laws of
Florida, by its second section, repeats the
above provision of the school law of 1889.
BY said second section, before the COun.
~ Commissioners can levy the tax there
by authorized for school purposes. there
must be an estimate" made by the ;sCoun.
ty School Board" and there is no such
BOARD" existent in the statutes of this
state.
That portion of the second section Of
Chapter 4012 relating 10 school matters il
evidently but a transcript from similar
statutes passed for many years back. and
having no direct reference to this subject
Section 35 of Chapter 4O16, Laws of
Florida, is also to be construed in connec-
ton Win these other statutes, all relating
To the same subject matter By it the
county commissioners are TO determine"
the amount TO be raised for all county pur-
poses, EXCEPT FOR SCHOOL PURPOSES.
They are to ascertain the aggregate rate
necessary to cover all such taxes, includ-
ing SUCH RATE as may have been levied by d,
the "Coun'y Board Of Education.n There
is no such Board" in law as the "County
Board Oh Education;" but taking this pro-
vision in connection with the provisions of
Chapter 1872 as 10 levying the school tax;
aud, further, 1t being found in the General
Revenue law in direct juxtaposition to the
Inhibition aganst The e unity Commission
els determining the lax for school pur-
poses, and The revenue bill being subse-
quenl 10 the o liz, acIs IN effect, it necomes
evident thai the B 'aId OF Public Instruc-
ton was meaut ~ be eerred to- and that
CLaper 1872 Was contemplated as still in
force.
! These acts construed together, show
that the legislature meant to divorce the
school tax from the control OF the county
commissioners. Very truly,
| WILLIAM B. LAMAR,
Attorney General.
