More significant and important perhaps

attitude Of railway officials toward the
new railroad rate law. In a discussion Of
the operation OF the act the commission
says:

and worthy man for the place and
that he would abundantly justify his
appointment.
Even in the few days he was able
TO be present in the senate he showed
himself equal to his duties, and it was
generally recognized by senators on
both sides of the chamber that a
new force had come up from the
South and that in the smoothfaced,
boyish young Florida senator the
counterpart of Beyeridge of Indiana
had probably appeared on the Demo
cratic side
But Death has stalked in, in ghast-
ly mockery of all human hopes and
plans and aspirations, and the eager
candidates for the senatorial success
sion will halt their ambition for a
day while the brilliant young man who
was their rival for the honor comes
back to Florida, stricken of God,
shrouded for the grave, to and sepul-
ture in her soil. We must have these
little human ambitions of ours, but
how poor and mean they look in the
tragic presence OF Senator Bryan's
death at the very outset of a career
that looked so fair! We have no
heart to talk about the succession
while Bryan lies unburied.
But widespread as is the sorrow
throughout Florida for the untimely
death of our young senator, who can
imagine the deep, heart4breaking grief
of his parents? They knew him and
loved him with a tenderness and
strength which can only be known
in the sacred relation which they sus-
tanned to him. Proud of what he had
already accomplished, they fondly
looked forward to the time when he
would be ranked among the states
men of the nation, a senator equal to
the best, who would bring credit to
his state and party. The whole PEG.
pie of Florida deeply and sincerely
sympathize with the stricken parents
and we can only commend to them
the words of the dying president: at

so masterful, courageous, gentle and
persuasive, that he converts to his
cause where other men OF perhaps
equal learning and logic would fail
for the want of equally strong per-

honor of Bishop Galloway that long
years ago he said that religion could
and should be, outside OF all con-
ventfonal religious lines, a mighty in
fluence for the solution OF Intensely
pressing and non-religious problems
in the South, and he has carried that
influence into those problems with
vigor and success that have earned
him the gratitude not only of the
Southern people but of all the people
of all the country who are interested
in our emancipation from notorious
evils. If we had more men like Bish
CD Galloway outside the church as well
as in it-more like him in politics and
finance and great industrial move
ments we would have few problems
in this country that were not easy OF

The Machine"
Has No Existence.

The Journal has for some weeks
past been making an arduous but in
effective search for the machine" in
Florida politics. We have suspected
from the first that it was a ridiculous
myth unworthy OF serious attention,
and we are confirmed in the impress
sion by the impotent efforts of such
excellent but misguided papers as
the Tallahassee True Democrat, the
Ocala Banner, the Times-Union, the
Tampa Tribune, and some others to
materialize the monster without any
results worth mentioning. We are
glad to be confirmed in our judgment
by so leyel-headed and clear-sighted
paper as the Tampa Times which
has the following to say on the sub
ject:
To the Pensacola Journal, Greeting
We observe that you, too, are an in
nocent little lamb because you can
not see a political machine riding the
highways like a car of juggernaut.
The Times had been requested to see
the machine, but it failed to observe
anything out of the usual 1t ever
remembered that the people who now

little while ago cried against as a
machine. II saw no machine then

What is the matter with our breth-
zen of the Florida press? They have
been fully informed OF the imperative
legal reasons binding upon both the
intelligence and conscience of the
state railroad commission which COM
PEELED it to rule that transportation
could not be exchanged for advertis-
ing with the newspapers of Florida.
And yet with few exceptions, the
papers continue to denounce the COM
mission for that ruling without at
tempting to answer the reasoning
upon which the ruling itself was
based This seems to us rather
puerile, and we should really be glad
to see at least one, paper in Florida
take hold of the case on its merits
and show how the commission could
have honestly decided other than it
did. This is not challenge-merely
an appeal.
