Every paper we pick up tells us
Of the prosperity Of the country, I'M

Of prosperity, we have Put our best
economists to work to try to regulate
the financial affairs of the country, in
such way that panics will be i'm

lessen the danger of panics, If not
do away with them entirely. In fact,
we doubt If panics can be averted en-

on. We ind many cures for disease,

THE UNITED STATES AND THE
SUBMARINE.

A nice question has been raised
over the submarine controversy hy
England. whether or not there be
merit in it.. You will remember tina
the American government, when
British war ships were lowering close
by the harbor Of New York just out
side the three mile limit, requested
Of the British government that i'm
structlons be issued to her war YES
sells to stand out further from our
shore, as II was an unpleasant feelin"
to have watchdOgS at our very door
and did not show due respect to a
sovereign government. The British
government compiled with this de
mand.
Recently he submarine U-53 came
in close to shore ON the line of travel
from England to the United States
ana I'm one day sank four British YES
sells and two ncutrals. In the al
Sence Of the British cruisers she had
things her own way. Naturally Eng
land inquiries what win America d.
about it? If we will permit Ger
man submarine which is looked upon
more or less ms an outlaw, to operate
at our very doors. certainly the YES
sells of other belligerents will be per-
mitted to patrol the waters nearer in
in order to protect their own com
merce. II the English vessels had not
.bem ordered away, the submarine
would at least have had some oppo
sitlon, and perhaps could not have
SUM, any boats.
Obviously, there is only one ans
wer the American government can
give to England's inquiry, and that
is, "You must both stay out far
enough not to cause a blockade of
our ports. "

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS.

The 1915 Florida legislature, at
ing under the authority of the con
stitutiun Of tSN5, passed three JOINT
resolutions proposing amendments 10
the constitution Of the state Of Tor
ida. 1t was necessary as re lutral ny
law. that thrce-fifths of all the mem
hers Of each house should vote 10
submit these proposed amendments
to a vote Of the people for ratilica'
ton. Three-'ltths of the members OF
each house actually voted TO submit
these amendments tC vote of the
people. aud You are now called upon
November It'll. to decide whether or
. not these proposed amendments shall
be ratified.
The very fact that three-tifths of
the members composing the last leg
islature, known TO be one OF the
ablest the state has ever hal, Is at
least a good argument why you
should give each of them you, most
careful consideration as probably
worthy measures.
Discussions are now being made
through the press of the state beth
editorially ami 10y private citizens.
This Is wise. Every 'iti7"n should
read propositions If such importance
and be sure Of fulg understanding
their provisions before casting your
vote. We take pleasure in calling at
tention to each briefly. after having
studied carefully the provisions and
purposes Of each.
one NJ the proposed amendments
is in Relation to Taxation and FL
nance. 1t purports to do nothing hut
exempt from taxation property val
ned at $500 or less Of all widows
with dependent children. and also to
make the same exemption to all bo'
ma fde residents who have lost a
limb or been disabled in war or mis-
fortune. This amendment is a good
one, and our vote on this shall be
'SYes."
