because it created no Second Con-
residual district and two Third
districts. Examination shows tnat
the engrossed bill made no such mis-
take ard that the error was made by
the printer and corrected in an "er-
rata" at the back of the book. But
the ait was defective because 1t
made the redistricting effective only
after the terms of present Congress
men expire in March, 1915, where
as the congressional elections take
place in November 1914. The ques-
ton is how can elections be held UNI
der a law which does not become
operative until after the date for
holding them? 1t would seem that
the law is void for nonsensical con-
tradiction and that the elections
must be held under the present law
in which there is no Fourth district
and L'Engle must run again for
ngressman-at- large.
Oh, you legislature!

NO DISAGREEMENT
BETWEEN US

We beg to assure our friend OF
the Tampa Times that what we
have said about certain coarse and
fippant paragraphs in some Of the
papers suggested by the vagaries OF
modern dressing by the ladies was
intended as a rebuke to those writ
ers who seemed to forget the obli-
cations OF gentlemen in their atti-
tude toward the other sex. Some
OF those paragraphs were intolera-
bly, vulgar and personal and must
surely have been penned in mo-
ments OF mental alteration and
we're doubtless deeply regretted by
their writer's with returning san
ity. We don't believe there is a
man on the Florida press who would
purposely wound the feelings of a
lady by anything he might write
for publication, but in the mania
for satirical paragraphing some Of
them have gone beyond the limit
and it is proper to tell them so. The
Times should not suspect that our
interest in this matter is in be-
half of those feather headed fe-
males who delight to "shock" the
public by brazenly stepping across
the line of convention in their
dress and, at the sacrifice of what
ever modest sensiblities they may
have, play like the silly, unthink-
ing creatures they are along the
perious edge of that abyss wchih
lies across the pathway of every reck-
less woman. II their own finer in
stincts and home training will not
save them it is needless for news
papers to consume space in showing
them the error of their ways. Our
lance Is poised in behalf OF the
other kind. But we would never
forget that q woman is woman
and has the eternal immunities of
her sex, when we talk about her in
cold type.

The vast circulation and high
standing Of the Saturday Evening
Post makes any material misrepre-
sentation in its pages harmful to an
unusual degree, and one of its writ
ers has recently done Florida a great
injustice by selecting a single in
stance OF the alleged victim of a
land shark in this State, which mieht
easily create the impression that
worthless lands and rascally sharks
were characteristic of Florida in
general. Secretary Meares, of the
Tampa Board Of Trade, has taken

commendable promptness concern

"Mr. Meares very effectively Of

Doubtless Canada preathes sigh
OF relief now that Harry Thaw is
OF her soil and his lawyers have
ceased to tangle up her courts in
such doubt and confusion as was be-
ginning to hurt the splendid reputa-
tion of British justice for speed and
certainty. Despite the tragic horror
of murder in which it begun there is
an almost comic element in some of
the later phases of the Thaw case,

Lord Haldane, the official head of
Englard's highest court, was in this
country recently as the guest of
the American Bar Association at its
meeting in Canada. In his address
before that body he used the fol-
lowing LANGUAGE which every lawyer
in the United States ought to mem
orize and then paste in his hat lest
he forget it:
CRITICISM of the law, the courts
and the LEGAL profession is one of
the popular customs of the day. The
public has become convinced that
there IS gross inefliciency in the ad-
mlnlstration of the law. 1T has
weighed current procedure in the
balance and found it wanting. There
Is too much delay, expense and un-
certainty about It. 1t does not pro-
duce results commensurate with the
efforts employed.
