Heavy Travel to Florida and the south.


Heavy Travel TO Florida and the South.
The tide of travel which sets in every
winter from the northern states to the
milder climates of the south. and south
western portions of the country has begun
this year at very much increased rate
over that of any previous season. Trans
portation companies report that their fa-
cilities are completely utilized, and that
early application is often necessary in or
der to secure choice accommodations
The Southern Railways new and palatial
train, the Southern's Palm Limited, :"
which began its service in the middle of
January, between the more prominent re-
sorts of the South, has proved welcome
and in view of the increased travel-a
necessary addition to the means of inter
communication between these two sec
tions. This train is running heavily load
ed every day, every compartment and
stateroom being taken, and it has frequent
ly been necessary to put on additional
sleeping cars in order to accommodate the
demand. The popularity of this train is
mainly due to the prominence of the
points which it touches and the quick
time which it makes between New York
and Florida Another train operated by
the Southern Railway System is the
Washington and Southwestern Limited.
Its close connection with the ''Sunset
Limited of the Southern Pacific Co. at
New Orleans to Mexico and the Pacific
Coast makes it popular Southern route
for winter travel. This system offers quick
service to the beautiful Land ofthe Sky"
the mountain region of North Carolina.
within which are located such famous re-
sorts as Pinehurst, Asheville, and Hot
Springs, also to Columbia. Summerville,
Aiken and Augusta. These places are
easily reached, and is one of the main rea-
sons for the present great increase of
Southern travel. The travel to the still
milder and more southernly located re-
sorts in Florida, st. Augustine, Palm
Beach. Ormode, Tampa and other places
on both the Atlantic and gulf coasts of
the state seems to be equally heavy. The
Southern Railway route is also most pop
uiar among travellers to Cuba, since the
quick time made between New York and
Miami, materially shortens the trip to
Havana. Travel westward through the
Gulf States to New Orleans and the west
is unusually heavy, and the approaching
Mardi Gras festivities in New Orleans are
also attracting a considerable number of
northern visitors to that city. Complete
information in regard to reaching all of
the above resorts can be procured of Chas.
L. Hopkins, District Passenger Agent,
Southern Railway, 828 Chestnut Street, as
his Office is a bureau of information for
southern travel.

BURLINGTON county's members of the
legislature are asking for opinions frorG
their constituents with reference to thu
bill which has been introduced in the sen.
ate with view of changing the metho.
of conducting the business of the county.
A synopsis of the bill is printed Oh
another page. The system of government
proposed is similar to that now in vogue
in Pennsylvania. Ohio and other states
where the county fathers are styled com
missioners. In both those states there ha.
been great satisfaction over the manage
ment of affairs. both In a business sense
as well as a matter of economy. The re-
suits indicate thet five men-or even three,
as in some instances selected with especial
regard for their business qualifications,
are as well fitted for this particular line Of
work as those who seek the office mainly
for what there is in it. The bill Just in.
troduced provides for a salary of $500
per year for five men-a total of $500.
$1,000 per year would be sufficient.
Taking the five years ending May, 1901,
the yearly average salaries of the members
has been $6,s37.23. In three meetings
this year the personal bills have reached
the sum of $45,590S. There are two
more meetings which will probably bring
the sum up to the average This is ez-
elusive of the amount paid the clerk Of
the board and the extras voted that
official each year. The new law does not
provide for the election of a clerk, but
where no specific mention is made, the
present law prevails. SO it is supposed the
new board would be empowered to elect a
clerk and fix his salary. The main point,
therefore, is reduced to the question
whether five men selected from different
parts of the county will look after the
various interests more diligently and
more economically than 81 men who pay
particular attention to the affairs of their
own locality. The new law, if passed,
cannot become operative until it has been
submitted to vote of the people. This
seems to be the best way to get an ez-
preston of the voice of the taxpayers.
Pass the law and then let the voters put
their stamp of approval or disapproval on
it. That is possibly the best course for
our members to follow.
