NO TEARS-No FLOWERS.

Tampa Tribune.
There will be but few tears shed for
the present legislature when it disap-
pears into the cold and clammy tomb
of public oblivion at noon to-day.
1t has pretended more and done less
than any body which has ever drawn
a per diem from the state treasury.
1t has contained fewer able men
and more incOmpetents than any of
It's predecessors.
1t has made it possible for the world
to say: 1.-The state of Florida does not
pay its debts"
1t has shown an utter disregard for
the higher and better interests of
Florida, and has squandered the pub
lies time in sensel4ss rag-chewing
over uncomfortable trifies
Whenever it has had an Opportuni-
ty to do something of incalculable
good for the state and its people, it
has been found wanting.
it has served to Introduce to the
state a cOterie of pin-feathered would
be "refOrmersn who entered the capt.
tai with the firm belief that they
were great men, and that they were
called upon to save the state from
Quixotic evils that have never existed
save in their sopOmOric imaginatiOns.
The few really able men of the body
have been pOwerless to accomplish the
things that were necessary to the up
building and progress of the state.
They tried hard but were check
mated by blatant aud thick-skulled
majority.
The action of the body on the
WALES claim and its non-actiOn on
the st. Louis appropriation are the
tests by which its competency and in
telligence must be guaged.
Needless to say, it shows mp as an
impOtent nOnentity.
For its decease, there are no tears.
On its grave there are no flowers.
Let us pray that Florida will never
look upon its like again.

BOUQUET FOR TALIFERRO.
While the state press is striving to
mould public opinion as to the per-
fectness and imperfectness Of political
aspirants, we have yet to find single
instance that comes in the bounds Of
reason that has been brought To- bear
that Hon. Jas. 2. Taliaferro is not the
right man to represent us in the Uni.
ted States Senate. Mr.. TaliaferrO is
FlOrida's business senator; he has
with his earnestness to make an en-
viable record gone down deep in the
channel of research of national legis-
lation and brought forth pearls Of
great price. The many approPrla-
tons that Florida today enjoys were
either secured directly or aided by
Mr. Taliaferro. Since his first in
stallatiOn in office his chief and par
ticular aim has been TO foster our
greatest interests. That Indian war
claim that lay dormant for so many
years under an avalanche Of public
documents was brought 10 light by
Mr.. TaliaferrO and his colleagues, aud
the matter promptly acted upon by
congress. Mr.. TaliaferrO il a pains
taking gentleman, fully alive to the
peoples interests, and to fall or neg
lect to return him To Washington
would be all injustice to our common
interests. He is by no means a poll
tician in harness, or a man who is
able to control the wires Of a political
caucus or convention, but when the
whole people have voice IN the mat
ter, the ballots in his favor will fall in
the box so fast that his election will
be re.--LakelaRd Sun.

ENTITLED To EVERY PENNY.

ENTITLED TO EVERY PENNY.
The "Wsiles Claim" seems to be n
nightly mixed up affair. The bill
which passed the senate appropriated
something more than 81, OO0-about
one half of what the gentleman
claimed-fOr the payment OF the
claim, but when the house got the
matter up substitute apprOpriating
only $4,000 was passed. To this
writer it looks like that if the gentle
man is entitled to anything at all he
should receive every cent which his
contract with the state called for, and
the payment of less can but result in
placing a stigma upon the state which
it will be hard to Dvercome -Madi-

A SHOWER
OF
BEAUTIFUL BOUQUETS.

Editor Frank Harris who, in his
capacity as an editorial writer, has
been educating the people of Florida
for half century, has been named
as candidate for state superidten,
dent of schOols.-St. Augustine Record.
Some one has made the discovery
that Frank Harris would make a
capable state school superintendent.
Looks like they are determined to
have the Ocala editor run for some
Office -Palatka Herald.
The Tampa Tribune mentions a
rumor to the effect that Frank Harris,
of Ocala, will be candidate for state
superintendent of public instruction.
Frank would make a much better
superintendent than governor, and
his many friends would be glad of the
opportunity to vote for him for that
Office.-Pensacola Press.
FRANK HARRIS.
1t is now sincerely hoped by a large
number of the friends of education in
the state that Hon. Frank Harris of
Ocala will at the proper time permit
| the use of his name as candidate for
the office of state superintendent of
public instruction.
All his life Mr.. Harris has been a
Jealous advocate of progress along
educational lines, and his work in
this direction has been marked by
| the results of successful endeavOr.
From party standpoint the demo-
cracy of Florida owes much to this
man and the time seems ripe for the
payment of the Gaines
