HERALD TELLS A. C. L. HOW
TO RUN THEIR TRAINS

The Punta Gorda Herald hands
out the following advice to the A. C.
L. relative to what it thinks would
be an improvement over the present
schedule:
"The officials Of the Atlantic Coas,
Line are hereby respectfully request
ed to shorten the schedule time of
the Fort Myers-Tampa train so as to
give visitors to Tampa more time in
the city. This can be done with lit
tie trouble-without having the
train leave Fort Myers any earlier.
THE run from Fort Myers to Pun
ia Gorda can be shortened fifteen
minutes. 1t now takes one hour
whereas it can be made in forty-five
minutes. Punta Gorda will not OBJ
ject to the train leaving there at
1915 a. m.
Orders should be given to the
train crew to quit killing time at
unimportant stations. Sometimes
for example, the train stops at Lee
Branch or Motifs seven to ten min
utes. when twO-minute stop is all
that is necessary.
"And the stop at Lakeland is much
too long. Ten to fifteen minutes are
all that is needed there. Passengers,
baggage and mails for Jacksonville
and intermediate points should be
put off at Lakeland and the train
run on to Plant City by II a. m.
THE Sanford train can easily get
to Lakeland in time to transfer at
1890 a. m. to the train going into
Tampa If the Sunny Jim" from
Ccala cannot get there in time. let il,

THE MENACING SHADOW
OF THE SUFFRAGETTE.

The Jacksonville Metropolis has
committed itself unreservedly to the
woman suffrage movement in Flor
ida. and strongly fayOrs the proposed
constitutional amendment to give
the ballot to the women of the State
The next Legislature will be ap-
peaicd to to submit such an amend
ment, but we have no idea that i.
Y ill be done and We suspect that the
suffragettes of Florida have a long
and rocky road ahead of them before
their cause can be submitted to pop
u!ar vote; and even when it is the
amendment will be beaten over
whelmingly if the vote is taken
within the next decade. Events move
SO rapidly these times that 1t is not
safe to prophecy beyond ten years,
but undoubtedly the woman suffrage
movement is here in Florida to stay
until it is settled decisively one way
or the other. and it will become
more Obtrusivr and insistent every
year. In England the suffragette has
become a veritable terror, a menace
to law and order and the plainest
property rights; and she may become
one here if we dismiss her claims
a. absurd and tell her to stick to her
household duties and other vOcations

Relax In the Water,

Lew Sarett explains the difficulty
which the nonswimmer has in remain
ing af1oat in "The Knack of Learning
to SWIM" in Outing. as follows:
1.-The nonswimmer, fearing the wa.
ter. very naturally lenses his muscles
as he struggles to keep his head above
the water until he is as hard as a rock,
swimmer, having no fear, relaxes his
muscles and hence becomes buoyant.
The explanation is a simple physical
one. Tense. taut muscles increase the
specific gravity of the body and make
it sink in water; loose, relaxed muscles

Names Election.

By a narrow majority the
voters of the third congressional
district of Maine have sent Re-
publican to Congress. The dis
trict has always been Republican
save in the year 1910 when it
went Democratic. There was
prospect that in this election,
owing to the differences among
Republicans, the Democrats
would again be able to elect their
candidate. Perhaps they would
have done so had the Democratic
candidate had the solid support
of his party, for the Republican
majority is so small that very
few more Democratic voters
would have overcome it.
The Administration appre-
ciated the weakness of the Dem
ocratic candidate and endorsed
him in a personal letter to the
voters. 1t also sent Secretary
Bryan, Speaker Clark and other
Democratic leaders into the dis
trict to solidify the Democratic
vote and, if possible, to prevent
the Republicans and Progressives
from getting together. But the
effort miscarried in both direc-
tons much to the chagrin of
Democratic leaders who conf
IDENTIFY counted on success.
The real significance of the
election is found in the reversal
of the positions of the Republi.
can and Progressive parties in
the district. While in 1912 the
Republicans elected their con
gressional candidate because of
his popularity, they lost the dis
trict on the presidential vote.
The Democratic party cast Ia, 692
votes, the Progressives 1853,
and the Republicans 7,l59. In
this special congressional election
the Republicans cast Is, LOG votes.
the Democrats 14.553, and the
Progressives 6,4S7. This re-
versal of the positions of the Re-
publican and progressive parties
| has led to considerable conject-
ure throughout the country as to
it's influence on Progressive fort
unes.-The Grit.
