Work of the Legislature.

Governor Bilbo is going to give
out a statement summarizing the
good work accomplished at the
recent legislative session. We
would respectfully suggest that
the caption for the article be
this:
THE Kindness of My Enc
miles,"
The governor can find many
nice things to say concerning
the work of the legislature-re-
capitulating the nice things al
ready said by the Daily News
concerning that body.
But if Theodore attempts to
tell just how these measures
were passed, or to describe the
influences that placed them on
the statute books, he will have
to admit that they were the work
of his political enemies, and not
his devoted followers.
The plain truth is that Bilho u
friends treated him Ike I n ~
child throughout the s ~ Il }
They refused to heed his ad1iic
declined to obey administrator
orders, and behaved like bad
boys generally.
When the administration want
ed to put through a measure of
merit the Macedonian cry was
sent out, and the members whom
he had regarded as his enemies
made noble response.
But insofar as his own faction
was concerned. the governor had
no more to do with what was
going on in legislative halls than
the color of your hair affects the
phases of the moon.
1t would probably be better,
Theodore, when summarizing
the good work of the legislature,
to studiously avoid any reference
to the influences that brought
about the passage of progressive
laws Or constructive legislation.
1t will certainly make your
friends feel bad if you tell the
whole truth about it. jackson
