MESA
THEY GOT TO MESA. BUT

The bark of neighbors dog ] reused the Republican correspondent from his slumbers at 3:30 yesterday morning. There was a pensive. tear stained note in the howl of the can inc, indicating something pathetic and unusual. Thinking that either the dog or some person was in dis tress. there was an investigation that led to the discovery of a sorrow laden procession entering the town limits, evidently bent on as little pub licity as possible. The first place in the parade was given to the pop ular attorney, M. G. Dougherty, Mrs Dougherty. Attorney Dunn and P. G. Carney, the latter manager of the Carney mines. about twenty miles east of town. Struggling along be- hind was single rig containing Dr. and Mrs. Severn. Slowly and sadly the procession wound its way through the streets, silent but for the persuasive tones of Dr. Severn as he urged the motive power to do and dare." and not die for just a few more blocks (six to the mile).
 What it all meant was puzzling
 
 from one of the party that the two lawyers. the veterinarian and the la dies had been visiting at Camp Car ney, where they drove last Satur- day. and were returning home accom- panied by Mir. Carney as guide and monitor. The party had started in plenty of time for a. daylight ride home, but had fingered by the way to shoot at the bobbing ears of an occasional Jackrabbit, to admire the beautiful scenery or to pluck an att tractive wild flower from the bosom, of the desert. Then. when the real start was made. one of the animals showed symptoms of hook worm and 1t required all the efforts of the vet erinarian to keep the animals cour- age up until town was reached
 Fortunately the night was fine: the stars were shining and the air brac- ing, and the principal regret was the absence. of a generous lunch basket. It was the first time in many years that Mir. Carney had gone to bed supperiess. but he is recovering pr. Severn is silent, but does consider able thinking. and Attorney Dough- erty smiles when asked as to the desert journey and repeats the words of the Bard of Tempe:
 "Ah. well. to all men 'tis known
 Beneath the rose a. thorn is hid-
 den;
 keepers oft reap more than Is sown
 And troubles come. although un-
 bidden.
 Every lane has a turning,
 Every highway hath an end. And We all are daily learning
 To smile-whater the gods may
 send"

7. A. JENNINGS
AND TOM WEST
WEST FLORIDA MEMBERS ARE
PRAISED FOR THEIR GOOD
NINGS KNEW THE RULES
AHEAD OF TIME.

The Tallahassee correspondent of
the Jacksonville Metropolis has the
following to say regarding two promi-
nent West Floridians, T. A. Jennings
and Thos F. West:
The First Question.
One of the first questions asked by
the visitor to Tallahassee, or of the
legislator or attache who goes home
for few days, is, What kind of a
speaker is Mr.. Jennings making?'
The question is a natural one, for
the papers have thus far neglected to
answer it. To borrow an expression
from the Gentleman From Mississip-
pi," a play, he is making just the
very best kind of a speaker" or in the
language of the street, he has made
good and is always on the job"
There are number of splendid par
liamentarians in the house, among
whom are Dougherty, Matthews, Mac
Williams, Watson, ReaVeS and others,
but none of them have so far succeed
ed in getting Mr.. Speaker in a place
so tight that he did not soon get out
of it. Unlike many other members of
the house, the gentleman from Escam-
bia had never before sat in a parlia-
n artary body of the size and dignity
Of the house of representatives of

this and the national house like a
youth his books, so that he was ready
for the wrangles, 1t is not known to
be fact, but it is suspected that Mr..
Jennings studied some before he came
to the capital, for he seemed to be en-
tirely familiar with the rules the first
day he presided, welding the gavel

will then advance beyond your Dreams
and so many of us will come down to

This state has agreed to use $50, 0o0,-

100000. And this township lays a mile
of brick road yearly, and 1T pays, too.

three of the leading journals of state

Insurance For
The Unemployed.

The proposed bill introduced by a
member of the British parliament for
the state to insure laborers against un-
employment. invalidity and sickness, is
one that is destined to mean something
to the common people the world over
True, It may take years for anything
to be accomplished in the matter, but
it is one of the greatest movements
ever started to benefit mankind. 1t
win be a hard matter to make the
members Of any class of workmen
agree upon any general scale of wages
and the proposed movement will have
many obstacles to overcome to make 1t
thoroughly satisfactory, but If it can
be done, then, surely the much talked
of millennium dawn will be here.
The insurance against unemployment
viii not tend to cause idlness as some
might suppose. and when the govern
ment takes a hand in a matter of this
kind 1t will see that the unemployed, II
for any great period. are given an OPP
portunity to learn another kind of
trade which offers better advantages,
both in price and in locations where
the work may be obtained.
This ought to be movement that
viii appeal to the Socialists of the
country. It seems to come nearer to
what they are advocating than any
thing offered recently and state insur-
ance against sickness and unemploy-
ment should be readily taken up by
them.
Much can be said on this subject, for
It has many advantages, but the prin-
cipal ones are that it will increase the
efficiency of the workmen: that it will
insure an era Of peace and content
ment in the labor circles, and that in
dustrial business will be allowed to
continue undisturbed and unmolested.
Capital and labor will never be in dis
puate. the prices for all kinds Of labor
win continually increase, and men who
have served their years Of usefulness
will still be provided for and not be
pushed out by younger and more eff
cient men.
The time is not ripe to agitate this
subject in the United States, but men
should begin to think on the subject.
1t means too much for humanity to let
another country adopt it before this
country takes any steps in the move
ment, and it will have a tendency to
promote spirit of contentment among
the people such as has never been
known before.

Governor Gilchrist's
Pet Measure.

The house has indefinitely postponed
Representative Gray's bill to abolish
technicalities in court procedure. This
Is Governor Gilchrist's pet measure and
the action taken means that the senti-
ment in the house is against it and
any other efforts on the part Of Gov
ernor Gilchrist or Representative Gray
VIII be practically useless.
We believe that the lawyers who
treated this matter in this way did so
from purely selfish motives, and we
believe that they have done their pro-
fession and the people of Florida vast
harm.
The bill as proposed by Representa-
tive Gray is almost exactly in accord
with the English laws at present, and
1t is our impression that it is word for
word like the recommendation of the
American Bar Association.
In England the technical points of
procedure have been eliminated and
justice is better served. Thirty years
ago when the affairs there were wound
up with technicalities justice was often
lacking, but now the case is altogether
different and technicalities do not play
any part.
The American Bar Association is
composed of the ablest legal talent in
the country-in most cases of men who
have made their fortunes in the law
practice, and men who are now work
ing to place their profession on the
highest plane possible. These men
have realized the absurdity of the
present practice of procedure and have
recommended to the various states that
the technicalities be abolished. The
same subject was before the Florida
bar at its last meeting and it seemed
TO be the concensus of opinion among
the members that they agreed with
the national order.
We are sorry that the measure was

pointment of the special committee to

fifteen minutes: West, chairman;
Stringer, MacWilliams, Matthews and

Tom West.
This committee has one Of the most
important works of this session. Chair

lawyer, but they had not seen demon

Elks Trip to Ann Arbor.

AS the result of figuring with gen.
eral Passenger agent of the Ann Ar
Dor railroad, the Owosso Lodge of
Elks has secured a much cheaper
rate for the trip to Ann Arbor Febru-
airy %, than had first been announc
ed, instead of $2.4S the round trip
rate will be but s1.25. The lodge
guarantees that one hundred fifty
wi! make the TRIP.
The train will leave at one O'Clock
y. m. and will return at 1 a. m. on
Thursday.
Owing to the interest aroused and
the low rate of S1.25 for the round
trip there is but little doubt that the
guarantee will be secured. The OH
GERS of the Owosso lodge will do the
work on several candidates, three of
whom will accompany them from
here.
There will be banquet and SOCIAL
session after the work.
