-Four years Of enterprise-that's the
history of H. H. Splitter and his car
riage works.
Four years ago Mr.. Splitter estab-
lished a repair shop for bugg1es, car
riages and wagons at the corner of
Main and Commemorate streets,
naming the business the Enterprise
Carriage Works. The business has liv-
ed up to its name in every way-al-
ways blazing the way in progressive
methods and employing high class
workmanship on everything entrusted
to them. The work turned out by the
Enterprise shop has, in fact, proven
so thoroughly satisfactory to their pa
irons that the business has grown with
great rapidity.
The original shop occupied only the
first floor of the present building, but
two years later the second floor was
converted into a vanishing and fin
ishing room for fine, light vehicles.
And now, Mr.. Splitter is erecting an
addition to the present building
which viii more than double the floor
space of the establishment. the COM
pIeted building being two-stories,
3S by lat feet, with floor space of
over IL 900 square feet.
The addition, which is now in course

that campaign, the use of automasic
guns was prohibited in all the prov
inces of Canada. In the United States
Pennsylvania was the only state which
finally enacted a law against auto

time that such a law. wherever passed.
would be unconstitutional; but -he
constitutionality of the law has been
sufficiently established by the superior
court Of Pennsylvania. The opinion of
Judge Dady is set forth in full IN this
document.
In behalf Of the wild life that IT
present is threatened with externina-
ton. submit this question:
Is 1t not the duty OF every state Of
the Union Immediately enact a Law
prohibiting the use in hunting of all
such unfair weapons as automatic,
autoloading and pump guns?
l offer with this question various
exhibits that bear upon it.
Respectfully submitted,
G. o. SHIELDS,
President Of the League of American
Sportsrnen.
Draft of q Bill.
Here is a suggestion for a bill to
prohibit the use of the automatic mad
pump guns:
An Act to Prohibit the Use of Auto
matte and Repeating Shot Guns in
Hunting Birds.
The people of the state of Florida,
represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
Section 1. 1t shall be unlawful to
use. in hunting birds or animals of a1v
kind. any shot gun holding more than
2 cartridges at one time. or that NAV
be fired more than twice without re-
loading.
Sec. 2. The intent and meaning of
this bill is to prohibit the use of any
so called automatic or repeating shot
gun or pump gun for the purpose of
hunting wild birds or animals
Sec. 3. Any person found guilty of
violation of this statute shall be
fined not more than $50 nor less than
s25 for each offense; and the carrying
Of any automatic or repeating shot
gun in the woods or in the fields or on
any OF the waters of this state shall be
considered prima facie evidence of an
attempt to violate section of this
statute. and shall be punished as pro
vfded in this section.

Business Mems League has sub

come from the Land Congress
fund.
In the report of the auditors
published on the fret page of this
paper is the following paragraph:
We note from the County Depository's
statements that on February I, 1911, your
Treasurer had to his credit there the sum
of $2o,223. This is. I, 3o4.81 more than
our statement herein shows the Treasu-
rer should have on hand that date; how
ever, the outstanding unpaid checks
should be checked against this difference.
This we are unable to do because we are
advised by the Treasurer that your deposi-
tory of county funds refuses to surrender
to the Treasurer his cancelled checks and
also refuses to furnish him with a list of
cancelled checks showing dates of pay
ments. This information is absolutely
necessary in order that you may determ-
inc the actual balance on any given date,
less unpaid outstanding checks, and your
depository has no legal right to withhold
this information from the Treasurer. We
suggest that this Court make an order on
your depository for the return OF all can
celled checks, and require it to return the
Treasurer's cancelled checks each time
his pass book is balanced, or furnish him
an itemized list of cancelled checks with
dates Of payment, each time his book is
balanced. When you have obtained this
list, it will be a very easy matter to ascer-
tain how many checks are outstanding,
the amount Of same and then compare
the said amount with the difference be-
tween the balance we have shown herein
and the 81, 223 referred to.
Yesterday the County Court
promptly ordered the depository
to return to Mr.. Jones all his cam
celled checks received and retained
by it during the past four years.
Time and again, the Treasurer has
asked that these checks be re-
turned, but without avail. Now,
1--WE will see what we shall see.''
Meanwhile, the court has ordered
a supplemental audit embracing
an examination of the interest ac-
counts rendered by the depository
to the county, the report to be
submitted at the August term.
