tenn of political ethics any man who
is opposed to any or all of Governor
Broward's policies is thd heirllng,
agent or representative OF the inter.

atoms.
''The gist Of the argument seems
to be this: All Of Governor Brow.
ards policies are designed for the
good Of the people; those, therefore,
who oppose them, are against the
people.
Now, let us apply this principle
and see how II works. Editor LEN.

them as the tools of the corporations,

CHIPS FROM rAE CAPITAL.

In point Of consecutive service Sen
ators Adams, Harris and McCreary
are the oldest members of the Sen
ate, though the former has been in
the Senate four years longer than the
two latter. Messrs Harris and Nc
Creary served four years in the House
prior TO being promoted to the Senate.
Senator Broome would have been the
senior member of the Senate In point
Of consecutive service had it not
been that he ran for Secretary Of
State four years ago instead OF the
Senate.
Senator Adams is without doubt the
most ready debater In the Senate.
He is equal to any emergency and is
always prepared to meet any situation
that confronts him.
Senator Buchanan is always on the
i.lert for any measure tending to at
tack the famous school law which
bears his name, and Senator Adams
always feels called upon to explain,
when he favors a measure, that II in
no way repeats the Buchanan bill.
Senator shep Clark is the ladies
man" of the Senate, 1t being no un-
common thing to see him on the
street in company with from four to
six fascinating members Of the, fair
sex.
Levy county has the distinction
OF having three members OF the
present Senate, for in addition to
Senator Willis both Senators Cottrell
and McCreary were reared in that
county.
Senator Park Trammell of Polk
has been nick-named by some OF his
colleagues as William Penn, owing
to his peculiar resemblances to that
great man.
Senator Crews may not be the
handsomest man M the Senate, but
no one can best him in debating any

aovERNoR ANp pkEss.


The Miami Evening Record, which
has been a staunch supporter of the
stockton-Broward political faction, re-
fers as follows to that part of the
Governors message condemning GER
tain newspapers and asking the Legis-
lature to ''muzzle@ them by the enact
ment Of law which would prohibit
editors expressing honest opinions re-
garding men and measures with which
they took issue. Says The Record;
In his message to the Legislature
the Governor recommended to that
body that laws be passed making it a
misdemeanor to circulate in print any
false information upon any public
question. or to print any malicious
statement or falsehood about a candi-
date for Office.
This section of the message has
given rise to considerable criticism
of the Governor and that distinguish
ed gentleman has replied in letter
which is published in today's Evening
Record.
1T would appear that the Governor
is too sensitive to attacks by news
papers.
Every newspaper man who dares
express an opinion contrary to that
held by his brethren of the press
knows what it is to be pilloried in
public print, and soon learns to value
adverse criticism at its true worth,
Newspaper criticism of candidates
and measures, even in the hottest of
Florida campaigns, is mild and gem
tie TO what was the custom of half
century ago all over the country.
1.-THE American people have learn.
cd that in full and free discussion by
the newspapers of every phase of po-
litical life is safety. and they will sub
NIT to no laws that will curtail that
freedom of the press to criticise and
blame, even'if the bounds of truth are
sometimes overstepped Exaggera-
ton is at times better than no ex-
preston at all.
ITO layman the enforcement of
the Governors proposition would APP
pear to be extremely difficult, How
is il to be determined when informa.
ton furnished to a newspaper is uns
true? What shall constitute mali
ciousness. where a newspaper has no
feeling against a candidate other
than the desire to see an opponent
elected?
AS an Instance: During the last
campaign on drainage the Governor
appeared in print in Key
West paper over his own signature,
the people Of Monroe coun-
~ that all the counties in the drain
age district were in favor Of the con.
stitutional amendment.
"As 1t turned out emily one Of the
I'VE counties in the district was IN
favor OF the amendment.
Would the Governor under his
proposed law, be amenable to pun
ishment for a misdemeanor in circu-
lating false information?
THE Governor will have to learn |
to take his medicine in allopathic
doses, like the rest OF US"

DINNER GUEST MUST BE ON TIMp
 TIME.

Closely parallel to the flag end of the Huston road, and visible from it at various turnings, is street which be- longs to few mems London. It is q. dingy, granite paved, populous street of no attraction, the sort of street in which you might expect to see on a fine day a dancing bear.
 Yet this street has known better times and eager guests. In the house he knew as No 4S, now obliterated by a big warehouse, Dr. William Kitchener entertained his fellow wits and gour- nets. He had ample means to ride his three hobbies--optics, cookery and music. His dinners were often elabor- ate experiments in cookery, and the guests had to recognize this fact.
 Five minutes past was the minute, and if guest came late the janitor had irrevocable orders not to admit him, for it was held by the mythical aCom- mittee of Taste" of whom Kitchener was secretary" that the perfection of some of the dishes was often so evan escent that "the delay of one minute after their arrival at the meridian of connection will render them no longer worthy of men of taste."-T.

FIGHT FOR PEACE.
Students Fire on Cats Which Trouble Their Study

Students Fire on Cats Which Trouble | Their Study.
 Two Yale students Earl A. Coyne, a Shelf. freshman, and John Baird, an academic student, were in the police court yesterday, because they sought to have peace, even though they had to fight for it. The fight was against cats, the weapon a rife, and here in lay the cause of the trouble There is law somewhere which says one shall not shoot gun within the city limits, not even at an unmusical ca. at a, m. These two simple students of 47 Lake place, however, driven almost to com plete despair by the cats which dis turbed their study, and, what is worse, their sleep, opened fire right upon 8 large black feline, who was promenad- ing the back yard fence. The shots went wide, strange to say, with the one result of stirring up one of the neigh bors. He called in Patroiman Reilly, and the shooters were placed under ar rest.
 Judge Mathewson was moved by the story of the long suffering and impos- ed very light fine of $1, with costs remitted He advised the young men to procure permit and wage the war with the sanction of the law. Other wise they must employ the time-hon- ored bootjack.
