1t Is sdld to be a literal fact that not
half a dozen English locomotives are
provided with efficient modern record
ing speed indicators, whereas on the
continent about 10000 are in use.
There, it is said, they are practically
compulsory on all passenger locomo-
tives, and in some countries every
main line freight engine is also provid:
ed with one. A law in France and
laws about to be enacted by Holland
and Belgium require every passenger
locomotive to be thus equipped within
q given time. Speed indicators on the
continent, it is stated, are considered
as important as steam gauges on boil
ers and automatic brakes on trains.
The engineer, it is reasoned, would no
more disregard the speed indicator
than the steam gauge, and therefore
only as the result of mental alteration
could an accident occur from neglect of
the railway company's speed rules.

Tallahassee. Fla. May 24.-(SpeciaD
Governor Broward was severely de-
nounced by Representative Melton in
the House this morning>yhen the Gov
ernor's message vetoing the Jackson
willie charter amendment bill was read.
Mr.. Melton is the senior Represen-
tative from Jacksonville County. and
said he founded the faction which
started the Governor to his political
fortune. Il have followed him and
his gang as far as I could but l can do
it no longer. The objection l have to
the Governors message is that he fall
ed to state his real reason for his veto.
His reason Is that his political al
lies In Jacksonville are now in power
and he wants to keep them in power,
for he knows that none Of them
could be elected by the people," The
veto message. said the Duval member.
was written in Jacksonville and not In
Tallahassee.
Mr.. Farris the Junior representa-
tive from Jacksonville. who introduced
the measure. which received the Gov
ernor's veto, asked that the House sus-
tain the veto. He said he believed the
Governor was perfectly sincere in his
objections to the measure, and anoth-
er measure would be drawn to meet the
objections
The House tonight considered good
roads and child labor bills. The child
labor bill was amended to make the
age of debarment from factories at IL
instead of IA years. Dupont's bill for
removal of the Capitol to some point
east of the Suwanee river went to third
reading without debate.
