Tarrian1 Trail Re-ROuted
at the Fort Myers Meeting

Providing for the employment
of state convicts on the public
highways to the fullest extent
such employment is practicable.
Providing for the state aid in
the building of inter-county and
intra-state highways along the
lines of federal aid now available.
Providing for the fixing of
standard of the quality of gaso-
lene that may be sold in the state.
"Your committee further rec
ommends for the consideration of
the members of this association
and the public the advisability of
enacting a law requiring all ve-
hicles commonly used ON the high
ways to be of the standard gauge
in use in other states. "
Secretary Dickie was authoriz-
ed to send a telegram in the name
of the association to the Atlantic
Deeper Waterways association
convention at Philadelphia, now
in progress, endorsing the st.
Johns river route as the proper
route for government develop
ment as a part of the intra-coastal
waterways system. 1t is favored
by the association over the route
on the east coast, utilizing the In
dian river, because the St, Johns
river is already open to naviga-
tion and no private right-of-way
need be obtained, and because as
link in the inland waterways it
would also serve the large cities
of Central Florida, such as San
ford.
A resolution was adopted ex-
tending the'sympathy of the asso-
citation to l.. A. Whitney of st.
Petersburg, one of the directors
whose wife died Monday.
The Fort Myers people tender
ed the visiting delegations a good
reception, and the meeting was an
enthusiastic one throughout.-Re-
port in Tampa Times, Sep. IA.
The following are the resolu-
tions re-routing the Tamiam
Trail:
Whereas, there has been en-
dorsed by this association a cross
state highway, known as the Tami-
am Trail, extending from Tampa
to Miami and,
Whereas, it is the purpose of
this association ito endorse rort-
ings of such highways through
t." -orritory that is showing an
active interest, and to assist in
good roads movements and,
Whereas, the association has
recognized the great progress be-
ing made by Manatee county cit
izens and specific arrangements
have been made for throu~h
hlghWay from Sarasota to Punta
Gorda; therefore,
Be it resolved, that this asso-
citation endorse the routing of the
Tamiam Trail from Tampa to Mi
ami as heretofore designated, ex-
cept that in place of its being
routed from Sarasota through Ar
cadia to Punta Gorda it be
routed from Sarasota through
Venice, Englewood and the Char
lotte Harbor bridge at Punta Cor
da.
Passed this the 18th day of
September, 1916, at Fort Myers,

Ut HSIEtS dilu SHuuucIS dJ pcICcll-
tages. However, the abstracts
given indicate that, in spite of
more or less economic. conditions,
Florida's growth for the last five
years has been at rate never e.
qualed in the past
Such then is the rather mixed
population whose physical welfare
is the charge of the State Board of
Health. The expenditures of the
Board for 1915 averaged approx
imately 13 cents for every man,
woman and child, white and black
in the state.
There is at present no machin-
cry by which the exact, or even
the approximate death rate of the
state can be determined, but bas-
ing an estimate upon the reports
from those cities in which ,ac-
curate statistics are kept it is Is
for each 1000 of the entire popu-,
lation, and according to races, it
is 131 for the whites and Is for
the colored race. In the cities
with population above 10000, it
is 17.7-14, 6 for the whites and %.
4 for the negroes.
Reports received from those
cities of Florida which have re-
allied the Importance of keeping
accurate accounts of health mat
ters, show the relative fatality of
various diseases, and these results
may fairly be taken as represent
ing conditions in the entire state.
tuberculosis claimed more VIC
tins in 1915, than any other dis
ease. Bright's Disease came next;
organic disease of the heart fol-
lowed Diarrhoea and enteritis
(under 2 years. cancer and other
malignant tumors, pneumonia,
pellagra, typhoid fever, Influenza,
broncho-pneumonia, syphilis, ma
laria, diphtheria, and Group,
whooping cough and measles fol-
lowed in order as causes of death.
Not a death from small pox oc-
cured in the state in 1915. Deaths
from violence, still births and
those following childbirth are ON
tilted from this enumeration.
Florida s death rate, as nearly
as can be determined by present
methods in force in the state, var
les but little from that of northern
States where similar statistics are
available. 1t is lower than in
those states where the larger share
of the population is gathered in
the cities. 1t is lower than that
of North Carolina; somewh"
higher than those of Virginia and
Kentucky.
The death rate from typhoid
fever, from pulmonary tubercu-
losls and other forms of tubercu-
losis, and from pneumonia is
markedly lower than in the states
named and in most of the northern
states. 1t is higher from malaria
excepting in North Carolina),
from influenza, from pellagra Tex
cepting in North Carolina) from
syphilis and Bright's Disease.
These and other scores of facts
that might be deduced from the
published authentic reports, are
proofs of the high rank that Flor
ida holds among the states of the
Union for healthfulness. It has
a decided advantage over many of
them in the low rate of mortality
from typhoid fever, consumption
and pneumonia, in spite of the
fact that hundreds of tuberculosis
sufferers come to Florida annual
ly, hoping for benefit and relief,
and death in their adopted state
is the final result.-State Board of
Health.

Report Goethals To Be Republican Dark Horse
CONFERENCE DECIDED TO
 INSIST UPON DEMANDS

SAN FRANCISCO, June S.-A conference of the various striking employees committees from different ports was held here for the past two days.
 It was hoped by business inter- ests that some means might be found whereby a settlement of the dock strikes might be effected.
 The conference adjourned today after deciding that the longshore-

CONVENTION WORK IS
 REPORTED IN BALD DETAIL

CHICAGO, June 9.--Cummins. Dupont, Weeks, Fairbanks, Lafolette Sherman and Roosevelt were nomi- mated today.
 With nine nominations in the field and more to come, Roosevelt seems to have stronger hold over the situation, but it is now evident tonight that any person may win out with the juggling of states and delegations that is going on.
 The statement is made that if the positive assent of Hughes could be secured, but it cannot, Hughes would be nominated hands down.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-06-10

and to some companies which wanted to hold out they told the rest that frankly they could not af- ford to haggle over wages any longer. The increase relative to their losses was only a trifie.
 The men are enthusiastic over their victory.
 Some strike breakers leaving the docks were badly mauled by some strike sympathizers today.

WASHINGTON, D. C., June D. The Star publishes 6 sensational story to the effect that the eleventh hour dark horse will be Governor Goehtals of the Canal Zone and that his presence in the United States at this oppCrtune time iG to be pre- pared to rec i've and accept tho mo- mination. Gooth;.ls may be the re- publican dark horse, but it iG inn probable.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-06-10

CHICAGO, June 9.-This morn ing the situation briefly stood sum- marized as deadlocked owing to the insistent demand of the Progressives that Roosevelt get the nomination at the unity conference. Senator Borah addressed the progressives unofficially on the matter of concili- ation. If there has been any giving way it is from the republicans.
 In addition to the nomination Of Hughes by Governor Whitman. Nicholas Murray Butler nominated Root, with Hughes prime favorite at the republican convention.
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-06-10

sudden collapse of the resistance to the part of the employers is due to the fact that ships were arriving so fast and the rates so high, every delay caused the owners fabulous losses. One firm alone which has had few ships tied up in this port since the strike began, estima- tes its losses including expenses and loss of rates about $20,000 a day

HAMPSHIRE SEANEN DRIFT
 ASHORE ON A LIFE RAFT

LONDON, June 9.-The country anticipates that the German fleet may make another effort to break the blockade established while the British are resting confident in the belief that they have been finally shown the impossibility of doing any such thing.
 Several papers are urging upon the Admiralty the advisability of extreme vigilance so that the ships will meet a proper reception if they again attempt to come out.

mems strike should continue until the employers granted the demands in full.
 In every port along the Pacific Coast ships with full cargoes are awaiting their unloading.
 With charters and freight rates the highest on record, this sort O. thing is very exasperating to ship owners who nevertheless state they will not concede the mems demands.

some of the delegates have threat ened to leave the convention ratn- CT than go on record favoring I. R.

COPENHAGEN, June 9.-Several officers and men of wrecked Ger man boat which took part in the Jutland battle arrived here having been cast away. on the coast. They will be interned. They admit that the battle was a serious one and that flight was necessary to save the German ships.
 They were surprised that the losses were so great and do not yet believe it.

NEW YORK, June S.-It is fear ed in commercial circles that the invasion of Mexico by American troops is very objectionable to south American countries and that for this reason considerable trade loss Is certain to be incurred.
