Colonel Appleyard
and the Commission.

Colonel Thos. ]. Appleyard, secre-
tary of the Florida Press association,
has been considering the question OF
transportation in connection with the
approaching meeting of the associa-
ton at st. Petersburg, and he gives
It as his deliberate opinion in an
open letter to the members Of the as
road commission 10 the effect that
transportation cannot be exchanged
for advertising, was made to break up
the Florida Press association because
it is what has been termed a politi-
cal machine.
We regret to see so sagacious a
man as Colonel Appleyard, who has
long been accustomed to deal with
public questions and analyze the mo-
tives of public servants, commit him
self to an opinion which we believe
TO be wholly unjust. II is inconceiv-
able that sworn state officials Of rep
utable character, holding a great trust,
vitality affecting personal and corpo-
dollars in value, would deliberately
prostitute themselves and betray that
trust merely to crafty a personal
grudge against some of the newspa-
per men in Florida who have been
sharp in their criticism of the COM
mission.
1t is, as we say, inconceivable, and
we believe nothing of the kind. Trans
portation under the old system would
be just as convenient to The Journal
as to any other paper in the state,
and our loss and inconvenience under
the new ruling are just as great as
that of any other paper, but that does
not prevent us from doing justice TO
the commission and understanding
that under existing laws which forbid
any discrimination in favor Of news
papers Or any other class, the recent
ruling is sound, and the courts will
doubtless hold it SO if the test is ever
made.
OF course, the Florida Press asso
citation is no machine in state politics,
and it is absurd to think so, as Colonel
AppIeyard says, for the papers are
widely divergent in their views on
state issnes, and that itself is conclu-
sive reason for believing that the rail
road commission has not been guilty
Of the stupid. folly of making an i'm
portant ruling on the assumption that
II was a machine.
If Colonel Appleyard had been a
member of the commission We feel
sure that his conscientious sense oil
official duty and entirely new point OF
view would have divorced him from
the cherished traditions, rights, priv
ileges and inmmitieS of the ancient
and honorable craft in which he Is
so bright a light and that ne would
have Joined with the other members
in declaring that Mr.. Editor must pay
when he rides, like the rest of man
kind Clearly that is the intent of the
law; otherwise newspaper men are
the benefciaries of special privileges
and any man who has attached the
name of Thomas jefferson to his own
surely can't stand for that. Is that
not true, Thomas Jefferson Apple
yard?

There and Here.

1t is not generally known that i'll Ger
many attorneys are liable in damages to
their clients for bad or costly results of
incorrect or misleading counsel.
In other words, the Supreme Court OF
Germany some time ago rendered de-
cision to this effect, taking the position
that in charging for and receiving re-
muneratiOn for advice the lawyer be
comes a debtor to his client and like any
other debtor, must make good"
Under German auspices, therefore, it
is better for lawyer in many instances
to charge client So to stay out of court
than $40 for advice to 90 in.
And i'll the case of writing erroneous
~ paving ordinance for town i'll
Germany the lawyer would be the loser.
But in the United States it is the poor,
trusting, .credulous town that has to
make all the venture and stand all the
liabilities.
And in parts of Maryland it goes far
Their loss falls upon the poorer in,
dividual citizens
Which, altogether considered, is an
irrefutable reason why towns should
adopt system of public improvements
which requires as tile as possible of or
Financing for the confscation of private
property
In Frostburg, for instance, if the town
would pave street, or part of street,
at torn expense, what actual need would
there be of an ordinance providing for
an improvement to which practically
nobody is opposed? .,
