The Tribune e not making q fight on
the Everglades drainage prop sition,
per se.
While It is beset with grave diflcul-
ties, sure to cost millions Of dollars,
whether successful or unsuccessful, and
while the courts may 30 decree that,
after all the work and all the expense,
Il viii be found that the State has sim
ply been spending money for the bene-
fit Of the railroads, the drainage prOp0-
SitiOn, Of itself, Il a good one, and ap-
peals TO the people who believe IN the
reclamation Of lands and their utiliza-
ton for the great benefit Of mankind
But the Tribune does oppose, and
feels that tho majority Of the people Of
Florida coincide with the opposition, the
plain and undeniable purpose Of the
drainage amendment soon 70 b voted
upon 70 place in the hands Of Ave men
unlimited and supreme power to levy
taxes and handle monies a. It may suit
them TO do.
On it's very face, q proposition to vest
such power in the hands of any one
body Of men Is sufficient to arouse the
doubt and suspicion Of the average cit
izen.
AS Major Abrams says in his article
on the drainage question, which the
Tribune republishes today, this is the
main issue in this whole drainage
scheme.
The Tribune does not believe that the
people of Florida arc ready and willing
to thus vote away their rights.
The past record of the Governor of
Florida is not such as to inspire conf
dence in this latest scheme Of his.
Let the voters of this State consider
well before they authorize the creation
of such powerful machine as this In
ternal Improvement Board will be when
once it is given the authority carried
by the drainage amendment. Tampa

For most fragrant piece of usurpa-
ton of power, commend us to that
drainage commission.
We can't say that we have any more
interest in the adoption or rejection of
this amendment to the constitution of
Florida than any other citizen of the
State, but we feel that we have a duty
to perform in exposing corruption, no
matter who the guilty parties may be.
AS we now see this drainage scheme,
we candidly confess we have never seen
any piece of legislation fraught with
dangers to the State of Florida 1t
overthrOws the Constitution. and builds
upon its wreck an autOcracy, the pow
ers of which are a menace to the vel,
fare of the whole State.
1t will give to these five men who
may constitute the drainage commission
powers never dreamed of by the franz
ers Of the constitution it seems intended
to abrogate or defy.
The legislative, executive and judi
cial branches of our State government
contemplated and recognized by those
who framed and ratified our constitu-
ton are to be unified TO suit the whims
and caprices Of board of five men,
from the decision of whom there can
be no appeal.
Not only is this a dangerous usurpa-
ton Of power, but it is an insult to the
constitution every voter of Florida has
sworn to protect, uphold and defend
Knowing this to be true. we unhes-
tatingly denounce this amendment as
one of the most iniquitous pieces of
legislation ever enacted at Tallahassee.
Unlike a legislative enactment. no
possible appeal can be taken. The
amendment by its ratification becomes
an integral part Of the constitution, and
from the edct of this board of five men
there is absolutely no redress.
They may in their discretion make
drainage districts wherever they choose.
They have absolute power TO confscate
any mans property by these excessive
assessments, and makes of that fright
to acquire and defend property" guar
anteed US in the constitution, delusion
and snare. Jacksonville Floridian.

The Florida catfish is figuring in a
lawsuit in a Pennsylvania court. A
merchant is being prosecuted under the
pure food law for selling adulterated
foods. IL turns out that the Goldfish he
is offering for sale is nothing more than
Florida catfish, dressed and packed as
prime Goldfish. The people Of Florida
have often wondered what became of
the immense quantities of catfish caught
from the streams of Florida every year
and shipped out of the State. They
have reason to believe now that the
Florida catfish comes back to them, in
neat boxes with fancy labels, as fresh

A BRAKE ON SUCCESS.
The Habit of Making Excuses VIII
RetaPd Any Mans Career.

RetaPd Any Mans Career.
Good excuses have kept back many
a man from realizing prosperous ca
reer. Once you get the excuse making
habit formed you might as we'll have {
ball and chain attached to your necl
so far as your prospects for rising Il
the top are concerned.
There are two kinds of excuses which
keep clerk in the business world oc
cupylng clerks position when he Ii
capable has 1t in HIM to be something
better IL he only would. The first class
of excuses are the ones he makes tc
himself. These are often as enervat
ing, subtle and death dealing as the
nasty cigarette.
A clerk sees piece of work which
he knows ought to be done today. He
knows that the best interests of the
business require that this work should
not be put off until tomorrow. But he
has not yet reached point where he
realizes that his employers interests
are Identical with his own, and per-
haps he was out late last night and
feels lack OF ambition today. So he
excuses himself from doing the work
on the ground that ''the boss" didn't
toll him to do 1t today. After soothing
his conscience with this speclous men
tai dope he puts in his spare time read
Ing about the way Slobett knocked out
Casey In twenty-one rounds. Several
days later when the neglected work
comes under the eye of "the boss" our
clerk Is asked why he did not do it,
and he then repeats his stereotyped
excuse that he wasn't told" to do It.
For such one the gateway TO success
is always barred.
This brings us to the second kind of
excuse, that made to ones employer.
OF the two this latter kind of excuse Is
the less injurious to the clerks chance
OF advancement When he excuses
himself from doing obviously impor-
tant work he instills into his own
mind subtle mental poison, a don't
care-a-hang essence that breeds lack Of
backbone, lack of concentration, lack of
continuity and application. He weak
ems and incapacltates himself far more
when he excuses himself to himself be
cause he will then often allow his mind
to dwell on excuses so weak that he
would never dream Of giving them
verbal utterance In the presence Of his
employer.
And when he has once set the men
tai habit Of excusing himself he goes
on and on binding the fetters which
will forever hold him back from any
rise. 1t is now only a short step TO
finding good excuses for not doing
what he has been told to do. Then q
little further along on the same line II
will be strange indeed IL he does not
land himself on the boot toe that ele-
Yates the Incompetent and deposits
them outside in the cold world.

Special Cable to The Herald.
PARIS, Jan. ia young art student
living i'm the quarter" whose funds
had become exhausted, but who had
plenty of credit, decided to cheer him
self up by giving a dinner to half a
dozen of his friends His friends were
willing, and sure enough when they ap-
peared in his rather dlapidated studio
night before last they found a sumptu-
Gus repast awaiting them. The COM
pany was at it's gayest when n strenu-
Gus knock was heard at the door. The
concierge:
"The landlord says he cannot sleep
for the noise, m'sieu, and, moreover,
he cannot understand these goings on
when it remains still true that m'sieu
owes two terms rent and"
Go away!" cried the company.
"We'll see it's paid tomorrow.
Satisfied with this the cerberus re-
tired. Joseph, the student, and his
friends then got together" and de-
cided to move out that very night.
They waited until long after midnight
and then began operations. Joseph had
but little furniture or other worldly
goods. Each of the friends, as he took
his departure, carried a big, heavy
bundle, one clothes, another an easel
and paint boxes. another a chair, an
other light wicker trunk, and finally
came Joseph himself carrying his
precious canvases. The concierge
pressed the tube that opened the door,
never dreaming of what was happen
ing: but when he ascended the stairs
the next morning he found the studio
entirely empty, except for the bed,
which had been rented from furniture
shop.
According to law the landlord could
do nothing, the property having been
carried out past the concierge's lodge
without interference from that worthy" "
as the statutes declare The landlord
is looking angrily about for new
tenant-and a new concierge.
