Among the bills that are receiving
favorable consideration at present IS
that introduced by Captain tombstone,
asking that the circuit court judges
be allowed their travelling expenses.
In speaking of this bill prominent
LAWYER VINO has never worn the judi
cial ermine, said: The judges of
Florida's circuit court are without
doubt the poorest paid officials OF the
state in spite of the great response
billy that rests upon them. II is re-
markable indeed that the men on the
bench today possess the high charac-
ter and ability they do. They're al
most as badly paid as the newspaper
men, poets and musicians"
Can ANYBODY down Tampa way tell
me where Key West is? Among my
fellow dodgers is a courteous and able
gentleman, known to fame as Hon. w.
Hunt Harris. The esteem in which
Mr.. Harris is held is shown by the
fact that he is the head OF the most
important committee in the senate
the judiciary committee. That, how
ever, is not the question at issue l
have known who Mr.. Harris was since
first came TO Florida, but l can't
exactly locate that place called Key
West, although the distinguished gen.
tleman. tells ME of its glories morning,
noon and night. Is Key West located
on this ordinary earth of ours? Is it
one of the biggest planets or is 1t
the hub of the universe? 1t doesn't
matter exactly where this enchanted
place is located, it could not be better
represented in the august halls of
Florida, but I'm asking for information
as to its Whereabouts. Maybe III
want to go there when my poor writ
ing causes the rest of creation to
shun me. Put me next, please.
A familiar figure around the capitol

United Confederate Veterans, as is
generally known, is now chief of the
Pension Bureau, and is now anxiously
awaiting the time when he can hand out
pension money TO his old comrades
in arms who, thanks to the fact that
patriotism is still alive in Florida, are
receiving well-earned persons for their
bravery in the sixties and the hard
ships they underwent with heroism
for the lost cause" As yet there is
deficiency in the pension appropria-

this will be righted in a short time
and the old gray coats will receive

The field is regarded as a favorable
one for the development of electrical

WHY NOT TRY THIS?
Persuade Rock Island Road to
Establish lnterurban Service
on Mercer Branch
AS OTHER LINES ARE. DOING
Should Be Good Thing for City and
the Company-Sone Rea-
sons Why.

Why not the business men of Rock
Island make united effort to induce
the Rock Island road TO inaugurate in
terurban service over its branch line
into Mercer county.
There are many benefits TO be de-
rived and there are number of rea-
sons for hoping that such an effort
might be successful.
In the first place interurban service
has been tried very recently on the
Alton in the vicinity of Springfield,
H., and by the Union Pacific between
Omaha and Lincoln Neb., and is prov
ing successful. Electric motors are
used and the Alton is so well pleased
that it is investing in more equipment
and promises to extend the service as
rapidly as possible The c.. B. & Q.
has for some time been experimenting
in the same direction. Railroad men
recognize that the interurban road rep
resents new and menacing phase
OF the traction problem. II they do
not meet it il will meet them and to
their sorrow. An interurban roal to
the lower end of Rock Island county,
for instance. would get much of the
business that the Mercer county
branch of the Rock Island road now
secures.
Plans at Des MOInes.
According 10 the Des Moines Capital
the Rock Island has already been con-
sidering using electricity on its lines
out of Des Moines. Within the last
few weeks officials have gone over the
lines where it is proposed to do this
work with electrical engineers. These
engineers have been supplied with
plats of the road, profiles. etc, and are
now actually engaged in drafting plans
and preparing estimates for the work.
The plan is to use the trolley system
for passenger. mail and express serv-
ice and for light freight and to contin-
tie the use of steam for the heavier
freight traffic.
The proposal is to use electricity on
~ miles of road between Des Moines
