Tallahassee. May NE early half the
session of the legislature is gone and
only very few bills have passed the
senate. A gentleman who for good
many years has been a conspicuous
figure around the legislative halls of
the state, was Kidding one of the
senators on this fact yesterday when
the latter replied that it was his
opinion that in this particular he
thought this senate had been loyal to
their constituents. why he con-
tinued, IF we could go on until the
end of the session without passing an
other bill we would be the greatest
benefa ctors of the people who ever
assembled IN this chamber" The con-
versation attracted quite little as
sembly of people who were in the ante
room to escape the dull proceedings
Of reading a long bill and adopting II
by sections on second reading, and
the opinion expressed by the senator
above II seemed had grabbed all Of
them. This recalls to mind that the
same opinion is general throughout
the state. and has been for a long
time, that we have too much legtsla-
ton and too little consideration Of
what comes before the legislative
bodies. The average legislator is an
ambitious American, with an eye on
something higher up and a determine
ton to reach It. He comes here with
a fixed determination to do things as
the best way of keeping himself be
fore the public. 1t is soon apparent
that the uppermost thing IN his mind is
legislation, and the less delfberation

employed the better II suits him, for
the reason that he can more quickly
get started on something else which
lies close to his ambitious heart. This
fact alone is responsible for many
pieces Of vicious legislation that slip
by men who would not have passed
them had they been advised of what
they were doing.
1t Is claimed that the present house
of representatives contains candidates
for every office to be given out by the
president or filled by election in the
next two years-with very few excep-
lions, and that this is having its eff
feet upon the avalanche of measures
coming before that body. Whether
that be true or not It Is the opinion
Of most DISTINGUISHED spectators of the
proceedings of the house that some
compelling force is behind the action
of large number of it's members.
They were never before kaown to fol-
low blindly the lead OF any one man
for nearly half the session. and IN this
case II IS we'll known to the most
casual observer that it is not the force
or magnetism Of the leader. 1t is true
that a. small! breach occurred last week
and that it widens a little ccasionally,
but up to that time it was only neces-
sary for the leader to express his
views on any measure for it to become
the fixed views Of every member of
the house with only one or two ex-
ceptions. Such unison is contrary to
human nature in a body containing
seventy members, and 1t Is not con-
sidered the wisest policy to pursue in
the hunt for wise legislation. for it is
well known that healthy criticism
brings out faulty points in way that
cannot be accomplished by anything
else.

The Grand circuit will see no free
for-au trots this year. There are only
four horses eligible and in condition,
and Old Pop Geers is training two
of them. Hence, there would be only
three starters. too few for the Grand
circuit
Players Of the western end OF the
American league have discovered the
way TO rattle Pitcher Joe Benz, of the
White sox. They merely make allu-
sions to his ears. which are not at all
small. Then Joe gets made and
ascends. Manager Callahan is think
ing Of buying Joe a pair OF ear muffs
President Tom Lynch, OF the Ma
tfonal leag que, wants IT understood that
there never was a baseball trust. He
laughs nervoTsly at the suggestion OF
a congressional investigation made by
Representative Hardwick and Senator
Hoke Smith, on account the of Ty
Cobb salary dispute. Barney Dreyfuss,
owner of the Pittsburg club, declares
that the proposed investigation is
merely politica: move, with the in
stigators hoping to make campaign
capital out of their actions.
Another stroke Of tough luck has hit
the pennant aspirations of Manager
Connie Mack of the Philadelphia Ath-
letics. Amos Strunk, speedy outf1elder,
has Joined Pitcher John Coombs on
the hospital list. StrUnk sprained his
ankle in a recent game and Will be
