fore the committee and that two bills
had been prepared looking to the well
fare of the Indians, one for q reserva-
ton which is to be located in Monroe
county. and one for a school. The In
dian commissioner found the Indians
scattered IN the Everglades; on the
east side there is one camp Of 1873,
which is the largest. and near TT. Lau-
derdale there are, some twenty-five
He says it would be extremely difficult
to keep the Indians on such a reserva-
ton, and this is one phase of the
question that will have to be worked
out, for they've always been free and
don't know what 1t is to be hindered
or curbed. The government appro-
priation Of fifteen thousand dollars to
relieve the distress Of the Seminoles
will revert to the treasury, as the COM
missioner will have to report that there
is no distress among them, but he
says that the drainage Of the Ever
glades is gradually abbreviating their
hunting grounds, by which they live,
chiefly, and the state should do some
thing at once. He thinks the federal
government will be willing to assist
when it is known what is wanted.

RETURN VESTS RESOLUTION.
The house returned to the senate the
West resolution proposing a referen-
dunn and recall amendment to the con-
stitution and the legal doctors are
agog as to whether the amendment,
having been adopted by three fifths of
each house as the constitution of the
state prescribes, is not already fin
ished Job and therefore beyond recall.
The matter will be threshed out in
the senate Monday on two contentious.
First, that the resolution is not be-
yond: second, that a majority cannot
effect a recession of the act of three
fifths and the contrary to each of these
positions.

the Dougherty resolution, Mr.. Angie
offered a bill to increase the salary of
the attorney general. He referred to
a typewriter sheet which held the
achievements OF the attorney genral
since he had been in Office which in
cluded the work for the internal i'm
provement trustees up until last De-
cember, when former Attorney General
Ellis was elected as special attorney for
the board.
OPPOSES ANGLE BILL.
Speaker Jennings went down on the
floor to oppose the Angle bill. He
said that If there were any chance
for the bill to pass that he would be
willing to increase the attorney gen.
erals salary, abolish the offices of
special attorney for the internal i'm
provement trustees and the railroad
commission, and give the attorney
general two assistants, for he thought
the entire law department of the state
should be under the government Of the
attorney general. Mr.. Jennings said
be had introduced such bills, but they
were so far down on the calendar that
he didn't think there was the least
hope that they would be reached be-
fore the close of the session. He
moved that the further consideration
of the bill be deferred until Monday
and the motion passed. The comp
troller's salary has been increased to
$4,000 per year and the salary of the
superintendent of public instruction
has been increased to $4,000; this
leaves the attorney general as the only
ooh 90 of Cay 10. -
who does not receive fees or perquis-
ties If the bill increasing the attor-
ney generals salary should be passed,
it would disqualify Representative
Tom West of Santa Rosa from run
ming for the office of attorney general,
on account Of the constitutional pro-
hibition as to a member of the legis-
lature holding any office which the
legislature creates or raises the emo
| luments of.
| FOR CONGRESSMAN AT LARGE.
Representative Matthews today in
.troduced a bill providing for the Sc
! lection of a congressman at large in
the event congress gives Florida and
| additional congressman; 1t is q simple
| bill, providing merely that the fourth
congressman shall be chosen at large
by all the electors, and that the other
three shall be chosen as by law is now
provided. The bill passed by a unani-
nous vote of fifty yeas.
| HENDRY'S FISH BILL.
Representative Hendry is an honest
man. Because Mr.. Floyd of Franklin,
said some things in the course of de-
bate a few days ago over local fish
| bill that the Lee county representative
| conceived to be derogatory to his
| character and sense of fairness, he in
troduced another fish bill today, which
! he thought to be fairer than the gem
eral bill which had been passed. He
stated that 1t was the kind of bill that
every member could get in on; that
| the gentleman from Franklin could
regulate the fishing season under its
provisions as best suited the people OF
Franklin. But the house had consid-
cred fish bills enough, and the bill OF
Mr.. Hendry and his exhibition of al
| truism were indefinitely postponed.

Watching the actual performances

themselves socialists. we are thus far

there 1t will become more socialtstic
If socialism works well. and less SOC

relation Of socialism to practical and
immediate politics in America, we
hazard the opinion that IL Taft and

possibly three times, as large as II La
Toilette and Wilson are the nominees.

A Thrifty States man.

Not every democratic member Of
congress has lost his sense of obliga-
ton to guard the peoples pennies, 40
was proved by the remark Of Mr..
Mason, of Arkansas, on the proposal to
sell the wreck OF the old battieship
Maine for exhibition at Coney Island.
81 think" he said, 1T would better
for the people to ct what we can for
the Ship and he added that there
were plenty of exhibitors who would
be glad to take the '.old carcass" and
"pay fool price" for it, charging adj;
mission fees to look at 1t or breaking
1t up and selling 1t to curio collectors.
The opportunity to make $1,000 900
for the people was not to be passed
over by any representative earnestly
regarding the public interests. One
million dollars would have gone one
seventy fifth of the way toward pay
ing the cost of the new pensions; or.
probably. one -fiftieth of the way to-
ward paying for the public buildings
which the present house will soon au-
thorize. A fool price," to be sure.
But then. If there are suckers" to be
caught, why should the United States
hold back from catching its share :?

HIST REMEMBER JOHNSON.

A man named johnson was in charge
| Of . United States land office eighteen
years ago. He stole $4,000 and sneaked
1t into hidden deposit under his own
name It struck him that he could
do 90 much with that $4,000. have
such good time, see foreign countries,
even expatriate himself if necessary to
his safety and the enjoyment Of the
money. So he stole it.
A few days later the bank he had
deposited 1t in failed. He had a couple
Of thousand dollars and managed, to
keep from arrest for a few months. He
was. however. caught and indicted. He
Jumped his $4,000 bail and disappeared.
That was nearly eighteen years ago.
The officers sought him few years
but could find no trace of him. So
far as those who had known him and
those he had known, johnson might
have been dead.
He came into a marshars office the
other day and confessed. He had had
enough of it He had been an enlisted
man in the army. had been Boer SOL
der, lived q hard and lonely life and
couldn't stand it any longer So he
came back from the dead and to re-
kponslbility. Punishment seemed easier
than obliteration. And when he had
confessed and his case searched out he
found that it had been nolle pros'ed
years ago and that he might have
come alive sooner.
That's the story. II you are ever
tempted Of other peoples money, If
what you might do and what pleas
ure you might buy with stolen funds
= keep running in your mind, If it seems
to YOU that man could afford to lose
all his friends, leave his home and his
country at the price Of any successful
theft, just remember Johnson.

the things that may be bought With

desirable which can not be bought. In
the later analysis It can not buy the
power to continue the trust Rockefeller
gave his life to organize and continue
it, Organiser at its head. Mr.. Rookie
Teller has lost most Of his influence and
will never own another senate. At the
end the card castle he builded fell
about his ears. His granite turns to
ashes. He was never influential out
side of what he was able to purchase
ana aroused public sentiment has put
market for him. The sichest man in
the world he is Of all prominent men
perhaps least loved and respected. The
American does love money, perhaps he
is inclined to sell his convictions and
his services in the highest market but
he despises and distrusts the man who
buys or brushes others sordidly and in
his heart glorifies nobility of purpose
and the sacrifice of service.
Mr. Rockefeller is alone at last with
his billion. Is he satisfied? Perhaps
the fixed desire for money may
find qualification in an old age spent
counting gold pieces. 1t is hard to I'M
learn the lesson of a lifetime. But
power is life to king and deposed en-
perors never forget the throne.
