II the principle at the bottom of
the plan of absentee voting, as pro-
posed by Governor Trammell, is
sound, the application of it is merely
matter Of detail, the mechanics Of
legislation, and as in the application
CT other correct principles, 1t Is only
"A matter of time and experiment to
reach success. The Miami Herald
logically suggests that such. a law,
If good for certain classes unavOid-
ably kept away from the polls cleo
ton day. could be extended to all
who are not present at their home
precincts on such days That paper
says
Governor Trammell could we'll
have taken leaf out Of the laws Of
Nebraska, where voters who are out
OF the State may vote for any of the
officials and have his vote cast and
counted In the precinct or ward
where he IL registered, and where he
would vote II he were at home. In
that State, II we are correctly ad-
vised, voter may cast his vote by
mail Under just what conditions
is not clearly known, but it is GER
tain that Nebraskans residing tenn
pOrarily in Chicago during the pri-
martes Of last spring were permitted
to vote in this manner, and their
votes were duly registered and
counted"

.
The editor of the Estero Eagle has
been doing some serious thinking on
new game law for Florida. He re-
.jects one of the measures proposed
because it would arouse the bitter
antagOnism of the native hunters
and that antagonism would make its
enforcement impossible as well as
encourage the game wardens to wink
al its violation. He endorses the
proposed Hendley law, now in sue.
cessful operation in Georgia, where
Il has resulted in materially In.
creasing the amount of game, and
says:
"That is to prohibit absolutely the
killing Of female deer or turkey at
any time. This would not deprive
any one of the privilege and sport
Of hunting. and we believe It would
enlist the favor and support Of oil
the better disposed hunters, who
would not only take interest In %.
serving the law themselves. but In
seeing that others did also. : =
TO encourage the enforcement, heavy
fines should be inflicted, half to 20
" the informer. Why can.
not the whole people act for them
selves as sensibly as one man would
act for himself? The game 10 ours
collectively, and we should be able
to prescribe a set Of rules permitting
its use. while at the same time keep
ing the woods well stocked for our
posterity."

WANTS THE FEE
SYSTEM ABOLISHED.

In a letter to the Tampa Times
Representative Brown. Of this coun-
ty. aligns himself against the exist
ing fee system for the compensation
Of county officers and wants to zee
IL abolished. He says that the sys-
tenn was all right on the start when
the county was sparsely settled. but
it is unfair now when some Of our
county officials are drawing more re-
Enumeration for their services than
any member of the presidents cab
met" Mr.. Brown says, among other
things:
1.-The question of compromising
our county officials is complex
problem, and | know of no one who
has advanced a thoroughly equitable
and satisfactory solution that would
work universally over the State upon
fiat salary basis. The nearest APP
proach towards placing these officials
upon a mutually satisfactory scale Of
pay to the incumbent and to the c0un-
ties, is advanced and incorporated in
the proposed bill of Hon. Robert r.
TOmlin. 1t is very essential that in
fixing the remuneration we should
bear ever in mind that we pay ade-
quately for the service performed in
order to maintain a high standard of
efficiency and to attract men Of ex-
cepti0nal ability for our public Of
fcers. |, therefore, endorse most
heartily the proposed bill of MIR.
TOmlin providing for graduated
fee system with the exception of that
feature providing for a salary for
county treasurer. look upon the
county treasurer's Office as a sinecure
ard should be abolished, and provide
by law for the county commission
ers to designate a bank in each coun-
ty as Il depository for the funds, re-
.aujring said bank to publish at stat
ed intervals the receipts and expen-
ditures, for the information Of the
ppblic."

BIG WORK CUT OUT
FOR THE LEGISLATURE.

The Miami Metropolis is looking
for really great things" from the
legislature this year and wants that
body to take hold of the important
work, the big measures, early in the
session, so tina abundant time may
be had for their consideration, and
leave the freak bills and minor mat
tiers for the closing days. The ad-
vice is good and has been given be-
fore, but with poor results. for legis-
lat0rs, like the rest of us, have the
habit of procrastinati0n and of saw
ing the hard work for the last. The
efficiency spirit which prevails in our
great manufacturing establishments
would be nightly helpful in our
legislative halls: but with only the
sense of public duty to animate them,
No boss but the people. and the pay
sure whether they work or not, our
lawmakers are much like school boys
in the mass, with here and there ex-
captions in whom a compelling sense
Of duty, combined with ambition and
give force and direction to
tie body.
The Metropolis groups the "big
things" Of the approaching session
as follows:
The adjustment of the convict
lease system: the redistricting Of the
State for more Just representation;
the passage Of . resolution endorsing
the amendment to the federal consti-
tuition providing for the direct cleo
ton Of United States senators; the
establishment Of . highway commits
sion and the submission Of three
to the present constitu-
ton Of Florida; one for the bonding
o. the State for good roads building;
one on the question of women voting
and the third to decide the calling
OF the State convention for the maxi
ing Of the proposed new constitution
for Florida"
In the name of Leland ]. Hender-
sen OF Pensacola. We rise to offer an
amendment to the above that W
corporate among the big measures
an amendment to the constitution
to create the State of West Florida.

CHANGE IMMIGRATION BILL.
Conferees Strike Out Clause Requir-
ing Character Certificates for Aliens.

Agreeing to eliminate the provision in
the compromise immigration bill requiring
immigrants to produce certificates of
character from the country from which
they come. the conferees of the two
houses of Congress on the bill reached
their second agreement, today after a
brief sitting.
The certificate clause met with siren
uous objection from the Hebrews of the
c, lntry because of the difficulties antici-
pated by them in getting certificates from
Russia for emigrating members of their
race kilograms We're sent to many SEN
ators and representatives and 1t became
so evident that action in the Senate would
be DELAYED that the bill was sent back to
conference even after 1t had passed the
House.
The conferees did not share the view
of the outside directors, but concluded to
concede the point in 1.-THE interest; of ex-
petition. There also We're other changes
in today's conference, but they were of
minor Importance.
1t will be necessary for the House to
again take up the bill and also for the
Senate to act before the measure can be
forwarded to the President.

Company, paying 10 and - cents pound,
respectively for cannon and small arms
powder.
