Gent % use the English language cor
rectly and address himself intelligently
TO any and all public questions Of state.
a man who has been used 70 thought,
study and action along lines OF great
public moment. A man OF mental

A man Of absolute moral character and
uprightness not only in his own person
bat iri his ideals. A man who would
not debase himself nor degrade the

of any sort by bribery, vote buying,

cal victory
In fact. a man who will stand the
peer Of any Governor of any State IN

ashamed Of or make apologies for.
Is there any such man around here !
Let him stand up and show himself. -
Orlando RepOrter-Star.
Florida has had some that come
very'near, If not quite up, to your high
standard, and two Of them are yet liv-
ing, Governors Fleming and Bloxham.
The True Democrat believes others
could be furnished. We believe Hon.
Fred. T. Myers, of this city, or DR.. E.
S. Grill, would come near what is sorely
needed in Florida at this time. We are
sure they would carry dignity to the
Governors office, and no Floridian
could or would doubt that either Of
them is educated sufficiently to use
the English language correctly and adj
dress himself intelIigently to all public
questions Of State, etc" They have
the experience and moral character
and uprightness in person and ideals, Z"
and no influence in the world could in
duce either Of them to do low or un-
clean thing for political victory. Now,
let Florida select one Of the character
you mention in the list above. Florida
has more Of them, and the True Demo-
Graf does not in this wish to cast re-
Election on any name that has been
mentioned as a possible candidate.
They are good men, perhaps, every one
Of them.

LII tNtIa BlttA hp3 Aut te-t
AZ was recently suggested n these
columns, the joint committee investi-
eating the Internal Improvement Board
finds Itself unable to complete the work
Of investigation before the final ad-
journment Of the Legislature, and has
made a special report showing the pro-
gress Of the work. and asking whether
additional time will be granted for it's
continuance and completion in accord
ance with the terms Of the resolution
under which the committee was cre-
ated, or make report Of its incomplete
transactions and ask 10 be discharged.
The disposition Of the Fsrris bill,
looking to the aboliShment Of the Board
Of Trustees and the winding up Of the
trust in the courts. naturally depends
upon the report of the investigating
committee. Unless the investigation
is completed at this session and in time,
the Legislature cannot intelliRently act
upon that very important measure.
The shameful treatment which the
COMMITTEES has received would naturally
impel it's members to abandon their
task in disgust ~ and this, perhaps, was
the purpose Of such treatment but
they have very wisely and very proper
ly put the whole matter up to the Leg
islature, which body, as the represent
ativeS Of the people, must decide what
shall be done. If the Legislature does
not want the investigation perfected,
after ordering II 10 be made and pro-
viding for a part Of the expense, the
committee will be instructed TO wind
up It's work, less than half finished, and
will then be discharged from further
duty in the premises, thus turning the
whole matter into disgraceful farce.
If, on the other hand, the Legislature
desires TO have properly completed the
task which it set for the committee to
perform, the order may be for the
committee to be extended for a suffi-
cient length Of time to enable it Doom
plete the work, for it's report TO be pre-
pared and presented to the proper Off
cials, and for the committee, after thus
complying with the order, to be dis
charged
Instead, however, Of taking definite
action in the premises, the House, for
its part, appointed another committee
10 investigate the work of the COM
mittee.

THE WALES CLAIh.
Tampa Tribune.l

The Tribune is glad to see the ITALIA
hassee True Democrat speak 80 truly
and 30 strongly with regard to the stig-
ma being placed by her Legislators upon
Florida through their continued neglect
to pass an act for the relief Of Col. S.
/. Wales Every one comedies the fact
that his claim is righteously due him,
and there can be no excuse to delay its
payment. The liquidation of a debt by
a sovereign state is a matter OF honor
and therefore most sacred.
Every Floridian should feel humili-
ated," says the True Democrat, that
up to this date not a single step that
this newspaper is aware of, and the
legislature is now better than half gone,
has been taken to correct one of the
greatest public wrongs that was ever
put upon thefair name of this state. The
failure or refusal to come to an honora-
BILE settlement or compromise with Col.
S. /. WALES, puts US squarely and fiat
footed as regulators, and it cannot be
rubbed out, as the matter still stands.
This writer has no MORE personal inter-
est in that case than any other Flori-
dian has or should have, but for the
sake of honesty, decency, and the fair
name of our native and great state we,
with many, yes. many of FlOrida's best
men, deplore the rank injustice and dis
grace, if you please, that hangs over US,
from the way Col. WALES and the Beard
estate has been treated in this matter,
since through their work and Colonel
Wales money that large amount was
turned into the state treasury, and their
contract not being carried out and their
commission paid them. We may con-
tinue to refuse to give them justice,
but the stigma can never be removed
until justice is done"
The True Democrat is now pleased
that The Tribune has spoken on the
above subject. Does seem to US that
large majority of Floridians should feel
outraged oyer the matter and lend a
hand in righting a great wrong and in

Last Thursday che Senate passe
resolution introduced By Senator Frank
Adams, requesting the Comptroller %
furnish the Senate with a statement
showing the amount Of money now IN
the State Treasury in the General Rev
enue Fund, with an estimate Of the
necessary expenses for the ensuing two
years. and the amount the State would
receive during the ensuing two years.
Senator Adams was seen by a repre-
sentative Of the True Democrat We'd
nesday afternoon and the gentleman
stated that he had received copy Of
the COmptroller's report which shows
the following;
Money in the General Revenue Fund,
and to be received from all sources,
81, 67s, 4SL63.
Actual necessary expenses Of the
State, 81, 248, 698. SO.
Leaving available funds of s429, 69s.
60.
Appropriations contemplated and
passed by this Legislature, 81, LOG, TOO
90.
In commenting upon the above re-
port Senator Adams said:
II requested this report because the
Legislature appeares TO be inclined to
be liberal in making appropriations
without any actual knowledge Of how
much money the State had. Bills for
aspirations for enormous amounts were
being introduced; and believing as / do,
that the business Of the State should be
conducted in a business-liRe manner,
thought perhaps that it would be well
to know how much money the State of
Florida had to appropriate. It will be
seen by this report that if all the meas
ures that are now before the Legisla-
ture carrying appropriations should
pass, that the State of Florida would
be in debt S677, 10000 or I might say
$577, 700. 90, because the bill carrying an
appropriation Of 500, 10000 for build
ing an annex to the State Capitol was
defeated in the Senate yesterday.
The constitution of our State pro-
hibits the issuing Of bonds or borrowing
money, therefor, the only thing that
can be done if all these appropriations
that are pending should be passed, will
be to put the State on a script basis and
we would have to assess higher taxes
to meet this enormous deficit.
81 am in favor of making all actually
necessary and worthy app1 priatiOns,
but ! am unalterabIy opposed to run
ming the State into debt and raising the
taxes for any purpose unless it be abso-
lutely necessary.
with this condition of affairs star
ing the Legislature in the face, it is
necessary for US to carefully consider
all measures and keep within the bounds
of the States financial condition. This
threatened deficit must be avoided, and
/ hope and believe that now since the
Legislature is familiar with our finan-
ces and resources that we will conduct
our financial affairs upon a business
like basis and make only such appro-
L.. Ia.
