Perry Wall and F. A. Wood
Deliver Addresses In
Pensacola.
WALL TAKES RAP
AT GOV. TRAMMELL
Wood Talks On the Fee
System and Why It
Should Be Abolished.

Perry G. Wall, candidate for Uni
ted States senator, and F. A. Wood,
candidate for governor, spoke to a.
crown of about 500 last night in
Mallory court. The speakers started
at 7:30. Mr.. Wood spoke for about
an hour and Mr.. Wall, following him,
spoke until $50. A. P. Jordan, can
didate for secretary Of state, also
spoke.
Mr.. Woods remarks brought forth
much applause as he outlined the
main planks in his platform. His
main point was a discussion of the
fee system, which he elaborated upon
and presented two arguments for its
abolition. First. It would mean
more economical administration, and
secondly, its inconsistency. His sec
ond plank was taking of banks and
insurance companies out of politics
and placing them under the supervis-
ion Of a commission, appointed by
the governor. The third point which
he brought out on his platform was
publicity for legislation, contending
that ''hasty legislation is the curse
of every state"
Mr.. Wood stated that, under the
fee system, officials are elected to
Office at times just because they are
good fellows and are paid, under the
present system, from 81 200 to $751;
900 a year, and said that the Office
of sheriff and other fee-paying of
fees should be put on a salary basis,
because it meant the saving of mil
hon or more dollars per year to the
state of Florida. He said that the
fee-receiving officers of the larger
counties are fighting him because of
his advocacy of the adjustment of
the fee system, which is not only per-
nicious, but Is Anticipated and hurt
full to the taxpayers. He said off
Gals Of the smaller counties are not
opposing his candidacy to any extent.
He declared that the Office of sheriff
in the largest county or counties of
the state should not be paying more
than $4,000 per year.
Mr.. Wood illustrated how the friv-
olous arrest evil had cost and was
costing the state of Florida many
hundred dollars, telling the crowd
that, in "some counties, but not in
Escambia," (which remark was
cheered), when fees began to get low
that, very early on Sunday mornings
at times, the sheriff and deputies "in
some countless" would get into an
automobile, go miles into the back
woods to some out Of the way camp
or settlement, and "pull 7-come-11
or some skin game, for the fees
there were in it." and then detailed
at length the additional costs which
followed the pulling" of the dusky
crap shooters from away out Of civ.

ly, seven or eight blind tigers were
