Tallahassee. Fla, Nov 90.--The an
nouncement that former United States
Senator Wilkinson Can proposes to con-
test the seating of Senator-eIect James
p Taliaferro was received at the capital
of the state with mingled feelings of
amusement and pity-amusement because
of the very absurdity of such proceeding
emanating from Mr.. Call, and pity because
both his old friends and his former polti-
cal opponents had hoped that he would
have judgment enough TO pass the remain
der of his days quietly and outside the
arena of political strife.
MIR. Call is a queer character. For eigh-
teen years he was one of F'lorida's repre-
sentatives in the upper branch of Congress
and there is practically nothing of value
TO show for his service.
This talk of his creating a scandal over
ion last spring is ridiculous. Talaferro's
election was the cleanest and most honor
able that Florida has known in recent
years and, indeed, it was used as a text
by the press of the whole state because
of the happy and forcible fight II offered
to the Quay contest in Pennsylvania
