Bomford, the Tampa murderer of

bauched, was sentenced to one years
confinement in Jail; the "Black Kid,
a notorious negro criminal of Bradford
county, sentenced to be hanged, was
reprieved by the Board of Pardons at
the last moment; j. E. Butts, convicted
Of embezzlement in Jacksonville and
sentenced to one year in the peniten-
tiary, has received a full pardon from
the board, and James o. Williams, con-
victed Of murder at Miami, and senten-
ced to the penitentiary for life, was
granted a conditional pardon by the
board But Walter L. Taylor, convict
ed of an assault, at a cost to the State
of $500 in counsel fees, must serve out
his five-year sentence in the peniten-

1905 has been fixed at six mills. divided
as follows:

The increase of two mills in excess of
the levy of 1904 as the Madison New
Enterprise pithily remarks, is another
result of the late business administra-
ton" Governor Jennings was a can
ddate for United States Senator and
spent much Of the time for wi ich the
people were paying him a sala y as
governor, in the eager pursuit of that
elusive honor. In aid of his campaign,
he ostent ltiously and unnecessarily re-
duced the tax rate, so that the glory of
having lifted burden from the tax
payers might react upon the primary
tote for the u. S. Senatorship. The
scheme failed to make the desired con-
nection, but the dear people,, in
whose interest alone the reduction of

The last Legislature passed numer.
Gus laws which the sO-called sovereign
people are supposed to respect. SO far
no list of these laws has been published,
and we are doubtless violating them
every day The only authentic record
to be obtained is to watch the Times
Union and jot down the title of those
declared to be unconstitutional De
Land News.
Several newspapers have published
lists, more or less incomplete, of the
titles of the laws enacted, but no such
list could, of course, afford reliable in
formation in detail as to the provisions
of the laws themselves. AS to the date
when the published laws may be ex-
pected to appear, we are unable to give
any information, except that although
the law requires them to be ready for
distribution within sixty days from the
date of adjournment, at this writing,
ffty-three days after the adjournment,
there appears to be no prospect of the
completion of the work within the legal
limit.
1t is unfortunate for any city to have
published within its borders a newspa-
per which deliberately falsifies the real
conditions existing therein and uses its
influence to belittle the efforts of those
who make business and prosperity for
the community. Such publications do
not deserve, nor will they receive, the
support of those citizens who take a
pride in their city and who are found
always battling for its best interests. 49,

The great and only Chauncey Depew
started off to "Yewrup" for a costly tour
after proudly pointing to the fact that
the fake loans of Equitable policy hold
ers money to several moribund Depew
enterprises were made "by authority
of the directors. But the investiga-
tions disclosed so many elements of
rank collision, and thereupon the news
papers made so many damaging
charges, that the irate Senator decided
to return to New York and annihilate
few of his accusers. 1t Is well! But

The Orlando Star, discussing the loca-
tion of the University. states that "Mr.
Yonge and the Board Of Education. all
politicians, now in Office, favored
Gainesville. =" The designation of Mr..
P. X. Yonge, of Pensacola, as a poll
tician," is amusing. No citizen of
Florida less deserves the term. His
only "offence" in this respect is that he
was recently chosen as a councilman in
Pensacola. He is justly regarded as
one OF the most responsible and de-
pendable members Of the Board Of Con-
troll, and his splendid business qualifi-
cations will be manifest in all the pro-
ceedings of that body as long rs he re-
mains a member.

THE PRIMARY PETITION
Report Of Senate Committee as to
Validity of the Same.

The committe on Rules respectfully
report that they have had under con-
sheraton, a certain purported petition
for the enactment and submission of
an act to provide for party nomina-
tionS and the election of national dele
gates and party committees, and re-
spectfully reports:
That, approaching, that the adoption
OF the amendment to the constitution
in relation to the initiative was urged
by its advocates as a safe guard to the
liberties of the people when threatened
by the misuse of power in the hands Of
a corrupt legislature and fully appre-
ciating that it is the duty of each mem
Der of this legislature to observe with
equal respect each and every portion of
the constitution and statutes, without
regard TO individual opinion as to the
wisdom of the same, and believing that
the peoples who ordained and estab-
lished the constitution and the laws,
and believing. that when small mi
nority demands the benefit Of said con-
stitutional provisions and of the
statutes enacted in accordance with
the same, an equal duty rests upon
such minority to INVOKE this legisla-
ture with the same fidelity to and OBJ
servance of the law governing their
procedure, your committee proceeded
g
to the first ndgreat inquiry which sug-
gested itself. which was that Of ascer-
tanning whether such minority of cleo
tors has invoked the initiative in ac-
cordance with law, and whether fraud
or illegallty was practiced or occurred
in the making OF said petition or in
the procurement of signatures thereto.
Your committee finds, first, that said
purported petition was filed in the
Office of the secretary of stateon the Sd
day of January, 1905, after the cotiven-
ing of the legislature and while the
legislature was in session, and instead
