fore Each House.

lore fsucn house.
Tallahassee. Fla. May 1S.-Contrary to
the usual custom. the general revenue bill
which commonly originates in the lower
house. was to-day introduced in both
branches Of the legislature. Both bills,
which are very voluminous, will be print
ed and the debate over them will doubt
less be long and earnest There is a gen
eral feeling in the state that the Occupa-
tional license tax is altogether too sweep
ing and an attempt will probably be made
to exclude from its operations physicians
and dentists, while the Southern Express
Company Will no doubt oppose the con-
tinuance of the special tax
The routine work of the House embraced
the adoption of a very important resolu-
ton, introduced by Mr.. Drew of Nassau,
providing for a Joint committee to inves-
tigate the states finances and the internal
improvement fund. The object of this
resolution is probably to reopen the old
controversy over ex-Gov. Bloxham's man

Bills were introduced organizing the Mu-
tual Bank of Florida and designating what

cult
The most important bills passed were

DIDN'T SCRUB THE CAPITOL.
GOV. ATKINSON LOCKED OUT THE
NEWSPAPER MOP BRIGADE.

The Governor Had Looked Upon the
AFFAIR as a Joke. But when He

in Earnest He Entered "A Vigorous
PrOtest-The ScrubbIng Brigade
Parades the Streets Headed by a
Fife and Drum Corps.
Atlanta, Ga, May ls.-The state capt
tol building did not get the free bath prom
ised to-day by the Evening Commercial
squad of 'Swipes." The "Swipes" We're
on hand in force with buckets and mops
according to programme, but Gov. AZ
kinson caused them an unexpected set
back. Like the King Of France and his
10000 men. the Commercial 'swipe" bril-
gade simply marched up Capitol hill and
marched down again. When they reached
the capitol they found all the doors 10 the
building securely locked and guarded by
porters. who had received orders not TO
admit the mop gang on penalty Of hay
ing their heads cut of.
While the scrubbing gang was being
formed in front of the Commercial Office
this morning, Gov. Atkinson happened
along. He had regarded the whole thing
as a joke up to this point. but when
he espied the gang Of negroes with mops
and buckets ready TO start toward the
capitol he was vexed and so expressed
himself to Editor Blackburn, who was SUI
perintending the arrangements. The gov
ernor thought the joke was being carried
too far and declared that the Commercial
men did not probably realize the affronr
offered the chief executive of the state
by such a proceeding. But nothing daunt-
ed by the governors emphatic protest,
Editor Blackburn insisted that his only
purpose was 10 render the state a service
by giving the capitol building a much
needed scrubling, as the governor had
thrown down the challenge and that no
personal reflection upon him was In the
least designed. As Gov. Atkinson
proceeded on toward the capitol the mon
gang was put In motion in the opposite
direction UP Hunter street. The gang was
headed by fife and drum corps. playing
sally in Our Alley and kindred airs,
while three large, lurid banners, worded .

Serubbing Brigade completed the novel
procession. AS the mop brigade moved
through the principal business streets be-
fore making the contemplated soapy as
sault on the capitol, II was greeted with
hearty shouts from the crowd. When they
finally reached the capitol they found a
big crowd gathered there to see the fun
Gov. Atkinson had fortified the building
however, and the Commercial man who
headed the gang, after trying to effect an
entrance by all the doors, was forced to
head the "Swipes" about. greatly to the
enjoyment of the crowd. Editor Blackburn
is highly elated over the outcome of his
project The governor. he thinks played
right into his hands by locking the capt.
toll up to keep his men out. The clean
ing job would have been an expensive I'M
dertaking and the editor is congratulating
himself on extracting the glory from the
project without being obliged to foot big
house cleaning bill.
