1T is true that the Senate, has q
right to deny me a seat on the fiim-

This is no joke; this is solemn and
serious question. If the Senate de-

cided to follow the red flag, that 1T

call, as advocated by its arch cham
pion." He attacked the Chicago pa

worth ten million. He said the News

The Florida State Good Roads AS
sociation has recommended to the
Legislature the passage Of a bill look
ing to the improvement of the roads
Of the states It proposes the creation
OF State road commission to be com
posed Of the trustees Of the internal
improvement fund whose duty it shall
be to lay. out, a system of roads
through the various counties rum
ming as nearly as practicable from
county seat to county seat, such roads
to be continuous and connected and
plated as state highways.
1t also proposes the employment Of
competent engineer at a salary not
to exceed $500 year with travel
ing expenses, to be known as State
highway commissioner and an assist
ant, if necessary, at 500 per month
and travelling expenses-these to col
feet data for the State and furnish
advice and assistance to the counties
desiring their services.
The passage Of this bill would not
entail heavy expense on the State,
but we think it would give an inn
petus to road building. 1t would fur
nish to the counties a competent ad-
wiser for their work and it would
tend to the uniacation or at least the
connection Of the various county
plans. Much Of the work that is now
being done in the State falls short Of
the best results because it is discon-
nected. Each county acts for itself
regardless of all others.-Times-
