State Prohibition Committee
Making Plans for the Work.

But the chief plan the committee
has in mind to bring about "A substan-
tia gain is in the signing of pledge.
While this pledge has not yet been
printed or. distributed the idea is as
follows: The person signing the pledge
agrees that when certain number
of voters Ctl1c numBer has not been
determined 40 yeD have signed a sim
liar pledge that he will vote the Pro-
hibitfon party ticket. BY this means
the signer will not be bound to vote
the ticket until the equalled number
have signed. The committee believes
that where a man would not vote the
Prohibition ticket if he thought there
would be only a small number with
him that he will be ready to do his
part and cast the vote when he knows
that there are several thousand others
with him.
The evening session was held in the
old Woodmen's hall and was attended
by many people of the city and was
in the form of a conference. Any who
wished had The opportunity 10 eX-
press their views and make sugges-
tons for the benefit of the committee,
who will consider them later.

GOVERNOR GlLCHRIST SENDS
SPECIAL MESSAGE TO THE
LEGISLATURE

Gentlemen of the Legislature: l
have the honor to submit to you for
your consideration the following joint
resolution proposing an amendment
to the constitution of the United
States:
Resolved, by the senate and house
of representatives of the United
States of American in congress assem-
bled (two-thirds of each house con-
curing therein) that the following ar
ticle is proposed as an amendment to
the constitution of the United States,
which, when ratified by the legisla-
lures of three-foIrths of the several
| states, shall be valid to all intents
| and purposes as lart of the constitu-
| ton:
"Arti lie XVI.-The congress shall
have the power to lay and collect tax
es on incomes, from whatever source
derived, without apportionment among
the several states, and without regard
to any census or enumeration"
The passage of this bill is recon-
mended.
This is just measure. With the
exception of taxes derived from IL
censes, and the tax recently imposed
upon the incomes of corporations,
the revenue for the federal govern
ment is derived from taxation upon
consumption. This proposed constitu-
/ finnoI 10.
on the wealth. Without the strong
arm of the law, no one would be in a
position to accumulate wealth. Hav.
ing accumulated wealth, without the
strong arm of the law, no one would
be in a position to enjoy the same
Wealth should pay it's just proportion
of the expenses of the government
which makes the procurement and en-.
joyment of the same possible. The
main objection that l have seen urg-
ed against the passage of such an
amendment is that the federal govern.
ment will be in position to enforce
tax upon the incomes derived from
state, county and municipal bonds,
thus impairing the credit of the
states, counties and municipalities.
In the event of the adoption of such
a constitutional amendment, it is un-
necessary to state that no law pro-
viding for tax upon incomes could
be passed without the vote of the SEN
ators and congressman. All of the
senators and congressman are resi-
dents of a state; they are all resi-
dents of county, and practically all
of them are residents of a municipal
ity. An Objectionable tax could not
be imposed without the same affecting
every member of the federal senate

MUST BE COMPLETED BY NEXT
JANUARY

A special from Key West says that
the extension of the Florida East
Coast railway to that city must be
completed by next January, or it will
forfeit the franchise for carrying the
Cuban mail
At the present time there seems to
be nothing to prevent Mr.. Flagler from
carrying out his plans. The working
forces have been doubled in month
1t will be tripled and quadrupled in
two months more Night ana day the
work goes on wherever and whenever
it is possible.
Continuing the special says:
1T will be an eventful day for this
city when its people can greet Mr.
Flagler. Other cities towns and vii
lagos he has placed on the map may
look to him and applaud his indomita
BILE win, admire his executive ability
praise his name, but the people of thi:
old city simply wait for the comins
of the man who by his remarkable
foresight, his unlimited perseverance,
and his millions of dollars, has fas
tened Key West to the United States
Mr.. Flagler will find hundreds of chill
dren here named for him.

A NEW KlNK IN THE CONSTlTU
TON

The Tallahassee correspondent of
the Tampa Times says that Hon. c..
H. B. Floyd, a member of the legisla-
ture, has found a new kink in the con-
stitution of this state. This is Mr..
Floyds "kink:"
The constitution provides, in Sec
ton l, article II, as amended at the
general election in 1906, and also by
section 1, article II, before it was so
amended, as follows: IF majority
of the electors voting upon the amend
ments at such election shall adopt the
amendments plural AGAIN., the same
shall become a part of the constitu-
tion." 1t will be seen by this Ian
guage that there is some ground for
the view that where several amend.
ments are voted upon at the same
time none of them is adopted unless
the number of votes in favor of its
adoption constitutes majority of the
votes cast for the amendment, for OF
against which the largest number OF
electors voted. Many more hundreds
of votes were cast for or against the
! prohibition amendment than were
cast for the amendments authorizing
the creation of more circuits and an
Escambia court
1t was the object of the constitu-
ton to make it difficult to change. the
constitution. If the amendment in
question was legally adopted it then
follows that if $4,000 voters cast their
ballots for or against one amendment
and another amendment received only
one favorable vote and no votes were
cast against it the organic law could
be changed by this trifiing expression
from the electors.

The proverbial ingratitude of repub

bers who were trying to plumber the
building. The boy has not been even
thanked, much less rewarded.-Pun

This boy should be thanked by the
