gether his path toward the sena-

The Governor has been doing a lot
of buncombe work regarding what he
has accomplished, and what he will
do if given a still further lease of
power. Some of the things he has
done should be thoughtfully investi-
gated by the voter who has any idea
of supporting him in his canvass.
Among them are these.
His deal with the L. & n. r.. R. in
the settlement of the land cases.
This railroad, the chief of the trans
gressors against the laws of Florida,
got all it wanted, and with but little
or no opposition.
His chimerical drainage PROPOSE

is made habitable through a heavy
outlay, which should have been in

Government by Oligarchy.

The legislative duel during recent
weeks between Mr.. Williams, Demo
cratic leader, and Mr.. Cannon,
Speaker Of the house, arouses but
languid interest among the people.
Whether Mr.. Williams or Mr.. Cannon
has always been technically right is
matter of small consequence. What
IS of consequence is the fact illustra-
ted, that a Republican Speaker is able
to block legislation demanded by a
Republican administration and enfor-
ced by the practically unanimous
opinion of the Republican party
throughout the country. This is what
We mean by government by Oligarchy.
The House, with its membership of
391, is too much a mass-meetlng to
transact business unless that business
has been first properly prepared for
its consideration. For this purpose
committees are organized, to which
all measures introduced are referred,
Panama City pilot., 1908-05-07

dies; one is radical, but probably i'm
practlcable; the other is simple and
ought to be adopted by all American
Legislative assemblies.
The first would be converting the
office of the Speaker of the House
from partisan to a judicial office.
In the English House of Commons.
the Speaker is a non-partisan officer,
elected by non-partisan vote, re-
tanning his Office unchanged through
varying administrations, and expect
ed to be as judicial in his temper as
a Judge upon the Kings Bench. In
the House of Representative he is a
partisan leader, elected by partisan
majority, for the purpose of promot-
ing partisan interests. Ii is not per
haps strange that he becomes a fac
tional leader, elected by Il factional
party, and using his power to pro-
mote factional interests. TO make
the Speaker a judicial officer, with
no other interest than to promote the
orderly administration of the bust
ness of the House, is the radical but
probably impracticable remedy for
the present condition. The other
remedy would be to give a minority
of the House, say ten per cent of its
membership, the right to demand a
vote from the House on the question
whether any pending measure should
not be reported by the committee,
after a reasonable time for consider
alton, to the House for its adiudica-
ton. This plan, which has been adj
vocated 10y Mr. Everett Colby, of New
| Jersey, would go far toward destroy
ing the present power of Oligarchy in
our Legislative assemblies. Even so
simple a measure as this Will prOba-
bly, not be adopted unless the Ameri
can people, impatient of oligarchical
control, compel its adoption by an
Irresistible power of awakened public
opinion.
1t is not necessary for us to con-
slider the motives which actuate Mr.
/ Cannon in his obstructive tactics
| except to say that no one suspects
him Of corrupt motives. 1t may be
that he is actuated by personal hos
tility to President Roosevelt, and
/ therefore to all of the Presidents
/ policies; or that he entertains the
, provincial view of Il Representative
who does not look beyond the Dor
ders of his prairie Safe in his con
sideration of National interests; or
that he is CONTROL led by economic con
siderations, and afraid of National
appropriations even to preserve the
National welfare; or that he is con
sistently opposed to all legislation,
and counts that legislative day the
best in which nothingis done; or that
the purchase of the White Mountain
/ and Appalachian reservation is un-
constitutional. His motive is i'm
material. 1t may even be that he is
right in thinking the Legislation in
eXpedient, eXtravagant, or even UNI
constitutional. That also is imma-
terial. The fundamental question is
not, Is this bill wise? but, Have the
American people, through their prop
erly constituted representatives,, a
right to pass upon its wisdom? The
/ Outlook protests against substituting
government by oligarchy, however
wise it may be, for government by
/ the people, however unWise they may
! be.-The Outlook.

Senatorial candidate John S. Beard
is fast disabusing the minds of the
few supporters he had, that he is
proper man to support for such an
honorable position as United States
Senator.
In a recent speech at Lakeland he
took occasion to air his ignorance
of the power of the press and to
elaborate his own egotism by stating
that
editors assumed to advise the
people on matters of such grave i'm
port as the constitution of the United
States, when their advice would not
be solicited or accepted in the matter
of fifteencent trade"
1t is safe to say that the editors of
the state, as a class, have far
more influence than the lawyers,
preachers, or educators. Such a re-
mark but shows the narrow minded
ness or worse of Mr. Beard, a condi-
ton which totally units him for any
position IN our government.
But not satisfied with this gatling
gun practice upon the editors Of the
State, he turns upon Senator Milton,
charging him with representing the
National Banking interests in the
United States. Mr. Beard is we'll ac-
quainted with Senator Milton, has
known him since he was a boy, and
he knew. that he lied when he made
essuch q statement>Oardil'g HIM To
those knowing Mr. Milton, as lie is
known in this section of the state, no
words are needed to contradict
Boards vile assertion. If there be
any one who is in favor of square
deal for the people of the state of
Florida, and the United States, that
man is w. II. Milton. The Senator
has seen fit to reply to Mr. Beard
through the editor of the Pensacola
Daily News, which reply we are
pleased to publish herewith.
''United States Senate,
Washington, ID. c., April 28, 1908.
"To the Editor of the Evening News.
Pensacola, Fla.
DEAR SIR see by the state
press that Mr. John $. Beard, candi-
date for the nomination of United
States Senator, says | represent the
national banking interests in the
United States Senate. This state
ment is absolutely false. | represent
no special interest, and would not
serve in any legislative body if it
were necessary for me to represent
any special interest.
Il am interested in banking, state
and national, real estate, fire and life
insurance, independent telephone
system, steam boating, farming, and
farm lands, and my largest interest
is III farming and farm lands, but |
represent the people Of Florida to the
best of my ability and am now and
have always been opposed to cor
porate aggression and the enactment
of any laws comforting special favors
on corporations as against the in
terests of the people.
Governor BrOward would not have
appointed any man to the Senate who
was not in full sympathy and accord
with the interests of the people of
Florida, and when he appointed me
to represent the people of Florida in
the Senate he knew that | had all my
life fought for the interests of the
people.
And l will even go further than
that-Mr Beard knows this to be the
case and l cannot see how he can feel
that such statement by him is worthy
of one who seeks the nomination of
United States Senator.
Yours truly,

as matter of course, for preliminary
consideration. The Speaker of the
House appoints all the committees;
he determines to what committee
each measure as it is introduced shall
be referred; the committee may re-
port or not as it pleases upon the
matter thus referred to it. Thus it is
possible for the Speaker, foreseeing
the legislation likely to come before
the House during an approaching
season, to appoint a committee GER
tain to be hostile to it, and to refer
the proposed measure to that COM
mittee SO that it may be smothered
without public debate. By the power
thus lodged in the Speakers hands
it is possible for him not only to pre-
vent the passage of any measure but
to stitle Congressional debate upon it
. if he chooses 50 to dc. a concrete
case will best illustrate to the general
reader how this method works.
The Appalachian-White Mountain
Bill, a measure for the preservation
of certain of our great forests in the
East, has been repeatedly recon-
mended by the President in Messages
to Congress, was passed without dis
sent by the Senate OF the United
/ States, and was unanimously recon-
mended by the Committee on Agri-
couture of the Fiftyninth Congress.
/ The Speaker is, for some reason, OPP
posed to this measure. Under his in
/ fluence it has been referred, in the
present Congress, by the new Com
mittee on Agriculture, which he has
/ appointed, to the Committee on Jul
dietary, which he has also appointed.
/ The avOwed object of this reference
was to secure an opinion on its con
stitutionality. The majority of the
Judiciary Committee were supposed
to be strict cOnstructiOnists, and it
was believed that they could be count
ed on to believe any measure uncOn-
stitutiOnal if any possible objection
to its constitutionality could be pre-
scented. Such objections were found,
and an unfavorable report has been
made. Thus bill urged by a Re
publican administration, supported
by the Republican press throughout
the country, and unqueStiOnably haV-
ing the sanction of An overwhelming
majority of the citizens of the United
States, whether Republicans or Demo
Gratis, is for the time defeated by the
Republican Speaker and a small mi
nOrity in the Republican House of
Representatives Nor is this all. The
House of Representatives is not even
permitted to consider the question
whether it is constitutional and
whether it is wise. The whole ques-
ton is foreclosed by the Speaker and
a committee which he has appointed
and to which he mas submitted it for
decision. This is not party govern
ment; ii IS government by Oligarchy;
that is, by "a form OF government in
which supreme power is restricted to
