AGAINST M'MULLENS BILL.
The county officers are against the
McMullen salary bill for county off,
GERS. 1t Is understood that the Single
tary bill abolishing the fee system will
not haN e much backing and that it will
be allowed to die while the McMullen
bill along the same lines will be the
measure to be favored by those who
want to see the fee system go. So it
is the McMullen bill that the county
officers are after with long knife.
TO Az END PRIMA ~ Law.
Mr.. Wards concurrent resolution
came up for second reading in the
house today, but was substituted by
senate concurrent resolution No. II, to
the same effect. The substitute is the
resolution proposed by Senator Flour
noy to appoint a committee to report
the changes needed in the primary
laws. The preamble to the F1ournoy
resolution was Objectionable before 1t
was passed, but the purport of it re-
jects sought by the resolution Is a re-
vision Of the registration lists, which
has been called for from time to time
In the editorial columns Of The Pensa-
cola Journal and other state papers.
There are alleged to be thousands OF
names on the registration lists in each
county Of dead and fictitious persons,
and these classes are named in the
preamble to the Ward resolution.
CANDIDATES BECOMING ACTIVE,
The number of candidates for places
on the circuit court bench In the event
of the creation of the FIVE new circuits
that are contemplated Is daily growing
AS predicted in these columns, there
Is q candidate from every county, and
in some cases there are many more
than one. It is said that the mention
Of the name of Mitchell D. Price as q
possibility for the judge Of the new
circuit to be composed Of st. Lucte
Dade and Palm Beach, in the event
the committee bill is adopted, has
brought out nearly every member OF
the Miami bar as a candidate. Judge
A E. Heyser, of Miami, is in ITALIA
hassee, and said that he understood
there would probably be other candi-
dates besides Price; among those men
toned are Judge H. F. Atkinson, Of
the criminal court Of record, James B
Sanders, the prosecuting attorney Of
that court, and possibly one or two
others. Judge Heyser is also men
toned as a possibility. He said, how
ever, that he thought it premature t.
talk about the judgeship until aftel

termined.

MEXICO SEES NO WAY '@'.''T -.
TO AVOID A CONFLICT
BY Associated Press.

Mexico City. April 21.-While devout
Catholics at the request of the Arch
bishop began today to join in prayers
for peace, official Mexico sees no way
to avoid a conflict at Juarez. Still re-
fusing to treat with the rebels, the gov
eminent has ignored the ultimatum
issued by Madero. A new element OF
trouble came to the surface when the
students in the city tonight at mass
meeting decided to join what may he
termed a peaceful wing of the revo-.
luton and ask Diaz to resign. That
Diaz thinks of yielding is not consid-
cred as a possibility. 6

Messrs. Gray, Butler of Duval, Cade of
Volusia, Sheppard of Gadsden and
others supported the bill; it was OPP
posed by Speaker Jennings, Lake and
Tomlin. The bill passed by 48 to 8.
This is recognized as being against

be affected, having maintained hos

TEXT BOOK BILL.
Senator Cones uniform text book bill
was made a special order for Wednes-
day when reached on the calendar this
afternoon. 1t will be considered with
Senator Hillsburn's bill.

grant passes to families of physicians
and attorneys went through the house
by q large majority. Both houses ad-
journed until Monday. 1t is predicted
that this will be the last week end ad-
journment taken on Friday. The cal
endars are filling up fast and but little

The temperance committee has con-
sidered fourteen bills against the liquor
traffic, and Will report ten favorably.
The coeducational bill Of Senator
F1ournoy will likely be killed. and it Is
also reported that the child labor bin
which IS a special order for Tuesday
in the senate will have a substitute.
WARDS RESOLUTION.
House concurrent resolution offered
by Representative Ward Is as follows:
Whereas, the present system Of man
aging and conducting primary elections
is not what It ought to be and far
from what the people have a right to
expect 1t to be, satisfactory, II at all,
only to the successful politician,
fanatic or patriot fool. and
Whereas. it is the purpose and duty
OF the legislature to create and estab-
fish such laws as will terminate gross
abuses Of machine politics; that will
promote purity in government: that
will establish the best form of govern
ment possible; that will be a monu-
ment of honor rather than disgrace TO
the American institutions, intelligence
and conscience; that Will preclude the
registration of dead men and fictitious
persons; that repeating at the polls
may be avoided; that the elector may
express his will free from intimidation.

corrupt practice OF indecently using
money and fraudulently influencing
elections may be diminished and the
activities of the special interest In I'M

or otherwise may be prevented; that

and ends may not pervert the nohlest
ideals OF the republic OF our fathers

MANY WILL BID
ON SEWER AND
PAVING WORK
SEVENTEEN CONTRACTING FIRMS
HAVE MADE INQUIRY AND DE-
POSTED $40 EACH FOR THE
PLANS WITH THE VIEW OF BID
DING.

Indications are that there will be no
lack of bidders for the sewerage and
paving work to be done in Pensacola
in the near future, as inquiries by con-
tracing firms indicate that contract
ing firms from all sections of the
country will submit proposals.
The board Of bond trustees have
thus far received seventeen inquiries
from contracting firms regarding the
contract to be awarded on May 2.
Each of these firms deposited $40 to
guarantee the return of the plans, and
it is expected that nearly all of this
number will submit proposals.

DID NOT READ MESSAGE.
The house today refused to hear the
reading of the governors special mes
sare in REGARD to remedying the op-
Grafton Of the law in the courts with
respect to the elimination of techni-
calities. This is a pet measure of the
governors, and was introduced in the
house by Gray of Gadsden. The exec
utive proposed to help Gray pass it
and sent in a special message. The
governors great weakness for prolixity
was the cause which he must charge
up for the non-reading of his mes
sage. Representative Eugene Matthews
moved that the message be spread
upon the journal and the reading dis
pensed with. The reading clerk volun-
tarily announced six pages of legal cap
typewriter. This seemed to decide the
house, for there was no reading of the
governors message. The Judiciary
committee has reported the bill I'M
favorably.
GOVERNOR SIGNS FIRST BILL.
The governor yesterday afternoon
began the signing OF bills. The first
for the present session was to approve
an act to validate a bond issue Of
100000 for the county of St Lucie;
at the same time a number of senate
concurrent resolutions relating to
visiting committees were approved.
WEST WOULD LIMIT DEBATE.
Mr.. West had little resolution Of
fered early this morning to limit
speeches to five minutes on any sub
ject. Mr.. Bullock opposed in an effec-
tive speech and the resolution was lost.
ASSISTANCE ALLOWED JARlTOR.
The house allowed the janitor an
assistant at a compensation not to ex-
ceed four dollars a day. Mr.. Bullock
moved to amend it making it two" in
stead of -four" Mr.. Gornto opposed
the motion to amend; he said he
wouldn't do the work Of a janitor for
four dollars a day, whereupon Mr.. Bull
lock Withdrew his amendment.
RELIEF SOCIETY BILL PASSES.
For the second time today Speaker
Jennings appeared on the floor, the
first being in favor Of the Watson
resolution to pardon the peonage con-
victs, the next being in opposition to
the Gray bill which seeks to relieve
the employees of railroads and other
corporations that maintain relief So
cieties from waving their right to sue
for damage If they have previously be-
come members of such relief societies.
