AGAINST COUNTY SALARIES
Legislator Light Advocates and Be-
ueves in a Graduated
Fee System

Reddick, Fla. March Is. 1913.
Editor Tampa Times: Your letter
with a copy Of Representative Tom
Inns fee bill TO hand
No, 1 do not intend introducing a
fee bill Representative Tomlin of
your county and Representative spen-
Ger of this county, will have bills.
/ viii do all 1 can TO help pass
graduated fee bill
1 am opposed TO a salary bill for
county officials because the assessed
wealth of our counties ranges from
less than 100000 TO over S25,00o.000,
and to arrange a salary for county Of
icials to do justice 70 all officials in
the way of a salary under these condi-
tions is an impossibility.
DO you like the Tomlin bill?"
No. Section of the Tomlin bill
wants the forty-eight boards of coun-
~ commissioners to get up a system
of bookkeeping for the county officials
to keep an account of fees received.
want the comptroller and attorney
general TO get up a uniform, simple
system of bookkeeping SO that these
records can be uniform in style and
can be published in tabulated form if
necessary.
Don't like section g. Believe that
when a county official is elected, gives
bond, etc, for the faithful discharge
of his duties, that official should be
complete boss of his job; should be
permitted to hire his own help: to fix
the amount of the salary of his help
and all outsiders hands off. Believe
as much machinery connected with a
bill like the Tomlin bill would destroy
all good in the bill
Believe in good pay for county Of
icers.

The following from the always
bright and concentrated PaIatka News
is very apt.
They must have an innocent lot of
officials down in Palm Beach county.
Not long ago Gov. Trammell. because
Of numerous complaints regarding a
high-class gambling house being run
at Palm Beach contrary to the sta
tutes made and provided, requested the
sheriff of the county to raid the place.
provided, of course, there was one.
The sheriff looked but couldn't find
any such place. And neither could he
secure any evidence of the existence
of such place. Here is something the
sheriff might look up. To be sure it
is outside the jurisdiction of the Palm
Beach court, but it could be used as
straw to indicate the direction OF the
gambling joint IN case he ever be-
came conscience stricken or-needed
something to develop a graft IN an
interview in the Detroit Journal one
day last week, one Mr.. Isaac Stearns
of 665 Second avenue, that city, said
OF his visit to Palm Beach: zone day
out Of curiosity I strayed into a
gambling place frequented by million
aires, and saw Payne Whitney lose
$4,000 in about an hour without turn
ing a hair. He saw $4,000 slip away
from him, but remained collected. Ev-
erybody standing around was excited.
The man in charge of the bank was so
nervous that the proprietor put an
other in his place. Mr.. Whitney
cody turned to his secretary and said,
Give me another thousand This he
lost in a minute Then he lighted a
cigarette and left the room recognize
ing that 1t was not his lucky day
Perhaps it was Pastor Russell who in
a recent sermon to the Tampaites
quoted these words: "Vice is mon
ster Of such frightful mien, that to be
hated needs but to be seen; but seen
too oft, familiar with it's face, we first
endure, then pity, then embrace" IT.
therefore, the Palm Beach officials
would carry out Governor Trammell's
order we would advise them to take
but one look. They can work better
when they really hate a thing like a
gambling Joint.

MADERO WAS MURDERED

Colonel Manual Blanche Alcalde,
publisher of the New Era, a Mexico
City newspaper generally regarded as
the mouthpiece of the late President
Madero's administration, arrived in
San Francisco Friday with the asser-
ton that he lis in a position to prove
that Madero was shot to death and
that Vice President Juarez was
strangled on the night Of February 8,
in the palace and their bodies taken to
the prison in an automobile.
''The reported assault by the guard
said Alcalde, was merely a farcical
ruse and a part of the plot. When
the automobile was fired upon guards
were only pouring lead into the dead
bodies of the president and vice pres
ident, who were murdered in the pal
ace hours before"

This is an age of marvels, but for a
man who has lived a quarter of a CEN
fury in Orlando, to get lost on a prom
inent highway five miles from the city,
and to get so bewildered that he turns
his auto square across the road not
knowing whether to go straight up,
straight ahead, or round and round, is
one to be added to the seven wonders.
Yet prominent citizen of Orlando did
this very thing and waited for a pas
serby to start him on the right path.

EASTER OF 1913

Its lesson for me is beautifully ex-
planned in II. Cor 1918.
These daily cares which often seem
heavy to carry; the fatigue; and the
shortness of time to do what we wish
to do for Christ and each other-all
will soon be over.
Easter brings the assurance that in
the life above there will be no more
problems" no more walking by faith
and not by sight. The frailness of phys
ical life will be changed into perfect
health. There will be an eternity for
Praise, Love and Service.
