The Governors Views on
The Leasing of Convicts.

In letter addressed to The Jour
nal, published elsewher in today's is
sue. Governor Gilchrist gives his rea-
sons why the convicts OF the state
should be leased. And among other
things he cites the following, which,
We believe to be the one controlling
influence which continues in Florida a
condition well known to be opposed to
the best thought OF modern ecOno-
mists and humanitarians:
Owing TO financial conditions"
says the governor, 1t is quite evident
that the state convicts should be
leased, that being the only practical
disposition TO make of them for the
present"
The Journal is not willing to accept
the theory that the eonvicts should
be leased, for this or any other rea-
son which it has heard advanced; but
1t is quite confident that for some
time to come they ''wilI' be leased,
and, as asserted, for the reason
named At the same time, the gov
ernor destroys the force of this ''rea-
SON. by suggesting in another para
graph that If the state is DESTROYS OF
securing good roads through the
agency Of the convict system. a law
might be passed by which the pro-
ceeds from the leasing OF convicts
should be applied to the construction
OF good roads"
But what would be the immediate
financial benefit to the state if the
money derived from leasing convicts
were used as suggested? Woul it not
be the same thing to employ them di-
rectly on the roads under state super
vision? For If the lease money were
applied to road building it evidently
could not be used for any other pur-

funny plan to get rid of the ROSTERS.
For any one may see that the follow
ing ordinance passed by the city coun-
Gil and signed by tne mayor is aimed
against the boosters and not the roost-
ers. Just read it, it's a rara avis:
Be it ordained by the city council of
the city of Miami:
Section 1. That from and after the
adoption of this ordnance, its APPROX
al and publication as required by law.
1t shall be unlawful for any person,
firm or corporation, who is the owner
OF any chicken, goose, turkey. guinea,
duck, pea-fOWl or other domestic or do
mesticated fowl to run at large in the
city limits of the city of Miami.
Section 2. That any person. firm
or corporation violating the provisions
of section one ID of this ordinance
shall be punished by a fine not ex-
ceeding ten dollars or by imprison-
nent not exceeding thirty days or by
both such fine and Imprisonment, in
the discretion of the court
The Metropolis may well attempt to
laugh the matter off, but the situa-
ton is a critical one for the persons,
firms and corporations" named in the
ordinance. The guardians of the law
are strict in the Magic City" and
will doubtless teach a lesson to the
United States government in running
down and nabbing some poultry own
ing corporation found loose in the
streets. Great is Miami and great its
legislative solons.

pose for which it may now seem 10 be
necessary.
The Journal, however, is of the
opinion that no great state should
maintain an evil to satisfy a sordid
spirit. It is far better to suffer in
pocket than commit a moral wrong.
1t is better, moreover, to suffer in
spirit, yea, even to a point where the
heart may break, than to do so. We
are confident that the governor is act
ing from what he cOnceives to be the
proper economical and ethical view
point, but it is impossible for The
Journal to agree with him.
The Journal believes that, in so far
as it is possible, the state is looking
out for the good treatment, proper
Judgment and adequate nourishment
of its leased convicts, and in the tu-
ture as in the past this paper will
raise its voice in protest against any
dereIiction in these respects by the
counties toward their criminals. But
there is a great principle involved in
the case of cOnvicts which we have
touched on from time to time and
which, we believe, viii be generally
understood in the future and cause a
radical change OF view with equally
radical legislation to follow concern
ing the care and employment of ali
prisoners.

Oath and Opinion
In Apt Conjunction.

The New York World of Wednesday
used the following at the head of its
editorial matter:
I do solemnly swear that win
faithfully execute the office of pres
ident of the United States and will to
the best of my ability preserve, pre-
tect and defend the constitution of
the United States.-Mr. Taft's oath of
Office
l am far less concerned by uarticu-
lar theories than by general methods
o. gOvenment-methOd which have
been carrying us swiftly toward d con-
dition under which limitation upon
governmental power would be done
away with and the faVoritism and ca
price of an autocrat would take the
place of constitutional restraint. And
some chance barbarian as an autccrat
might oVerturn our temples, and do
more harm in the direction of unciVi-
LIKING the country than all our COL
leges together could possibly repair.
From Republican Congressman Nc
Calls letter declining the presidency
OF Dartmouth College.
The Journal has recently called at
tention to the presidents oath of of
fee, and also to McCaI's utterance.
and was struck by the connection OF
the two thus strongly emphasized by
the World.
OF course no living man may tell
how far President Taft may be willing
to go in carrying out the Root doc
trine of constitutional Interpretation,
not by the letter, but by rule of thumb
in order to satisfy the exigencies OF
the hour. Let US hope the president
win be wise enough to see the danger
of going too far-better still, let US
hope he will esteem his oath above
every other consideration.
Root has just made another speech
in which he has insisted that the gov
eminent should use all its power in
carrying out its treaties. Judging from
the past he believes a treaty may be
made that will override the reserved
rights of the states. The theory is
utterly false; and all patriOticfcitizens
republicans as well as democrats, will
unite in an earnest hope that the new
president will not be misled by 1T.

The Pensacola Journal cannot cease
its efforts to Bryanize the Pilot on the
state rights question, but it about
reached a redUctio ad absurdum posi-

following item upon the subject:

City Pilot who has been dabbling in
states rights would profit by reading
the constitution of the United States.

so. 1t causes ye editor to remark

ing his A. B. C's. And "dabbling in
states rights" wouldn't that jar you?
Panama City Pilot.
OF course The Journal thought the
Pilot editor young. Isn't he? Hasn't
he Just gone and done like all the
other young fellows-got married?
And this leads US to remark he'd bet
ter commence dabbling in marital
rights and leave states rights alone.

former ne might turn out a regular
