~ Shall Florida Have Good Roads ~


good roads as the man who ran his
Ford 500 miles per week for both
pleasure and profit.
II might be said this system of rails
ing money for good roads would be :.
little hard on those who operate other
machinery by gasoline. The answer
would be no harder for them than to
pay an advalorem tax on the value
OF their property.
I am firmly of the opinion that If
We ever have a complete system of
good roads in Florida, the state will
have TO build them. In my opinion we
made a mistake to vote half a million
dollars in bonds to help build one road
through our county. | am glad, how
ever the bonds are not yet issued and
under existing conditions don't know
shall vote for the amendment and
where they will be.
trust the legislature to raise the tax
ON gasoline to one cen a gallon so
that the tourist and pleasure seeker
will help US TO build and keep good
roads for them to run their heavy cars

A Ripping Rhyme

with Apologies to Walt Mason)
I'm countrysides and byways the
state bonds for highways are favored
bv the people more or less, while all
the opposition to the good-roads propo-
sition is coming from the cities and
the press. The writing statisticians
and scheming politicians think we all
are going to die of license pains, but
the Packard driving hordes ana the
owners Of our Ads are begging to be
taxed TO pave the lanes. That two
mill highway tax now levied on our
cbacks will come off when we bond the
.uto fees and we'll meet the federal
aid offered to us on spade; we II
ride no more in mud up to our knees.

A Difficult Proposition

Speaking OF the difficulty of being

be consistent. For instance. the
Ocala Banner in a long editorial call
ed down the Tampa Tribune for OPP
posing the bond amendment on ac-
count OF the proposition to tax auto
mobiles to the exclusion of all other
property to pay the principal and in
terest on the bonds, and published
the proposed amendment in full 20
show that no such proposition was
nominated in the bond" and that
Shylock 1.-THE legislature) could de-
mand the pound of flesh in such man
ner as it saw fit, and in the same is
sue said "A vote, for the bond issue
and the McRae system Of providing
ways and means for meeting the bond
issue, will accomplish the work" Now
the McRae proposition is no more a
part of the amendment than the other
and has less merit, for automobiles
use the roads and gasoline is used
for many other purposes than to run
automobiles. BY the way, please tell
me Just what is a minimum tax on
gasoline" I must commend the Ban
ner for it's fairness in publishing
many good arguments against the
amendment. even If l do chide it just
a little for what seems to me incon-
sistent.

The End of Carrnnza.

1t was a fortunate thing for the
defacto government of Mexico that
blame for the killing of Carranza
fell upon no revolutionist.
The movement which overthrow
Carranza politically has derived a
large part of its credit from its
avoidance of needless bloodshed
and its professed desire to be re-
garded as moral revolt. General
Obregon, in his reply to the mes
sage which announced Carranza's
death, takes no pains to conceal his
opinion of the 80 officers who made
their escape when tIey should have
defended the former presidents life.
CGrranza is dead With aim
dies, it is to be hoped, the worst of
the H!dalgo spirit, the irritable
pride, LONELINESS and suspicion
which made dealing with Mexico
during his regime a prickly bust
ness.
Frierdliness with the United
States may or may not prove the
basis policy of his Successors.
But at least there is fair promise
that the president of Mexico will no
longer be the strongest influence in
persuading Mexicans that Uncle
Sam has horns and tail.-New

The Difference.

Senator Fall is ready to march an
American army into Mexico and es-
tablish an American protectorate
there regardless of the ultimate
cost in American lives and Ameri-
can dollars.
Such move on the part of the
United States would be purest pa
triotism.
There are oil interests in Mexico
from which substantial dividends
dow into American pockets.
But for the United States to ac-
cept mandate over Armenia. with
a view to protecting Armepians
from slaughter and hopeless disin-
tegration as people is a different
proposition.
Such a move on the part OF the
United States would be purest folly,
There are no dividends from Ar
menia.
Why dwell en- a distinction that
the average senatorial eye can see
without locking? New York

DeSOto Votes For Division.

DeSoto county, one of the biggest
and best counties in the state, has
voted for a division into five new
counties by a majority of 700 or
more. The Wauchula Advocate
celebrates the result wit a blaze of
red letters. and advertises grand
barbecue on July as further
celebration of the great victory.
Our hearty congratulations are
hereby extended to the good people
of that great county for the final
contamination of the wish for
which they have been fighting for
the last 20 years. And our con-
gratulations are due the state as
well, on the formation of five new
south Florida counties. which will
add an appreciate number to our
representation in the legislature,
and bring us one step nearer that
reapportionment. which we have so
long and earnestly desired. 1t is
to expatiate on the ad-

people of DeSoto from the contem-
plated division. They have been
shouted from every stump In the
county during the campaign, and
are known to every citizen as the
vote testifies. We extend the warm

The Peace Veto.

The veto of the peace resolution
was expected by everybody, and no
one is disappointed in the fact. We
imagine that Mr.. Knox and his
friends will be rather disappointed In
the veto message. That resolution
was offered for no reason except to
elicit the Presidents veto, which
they thought they could use In the
presidential campaign. They are not
likely to circulate the message as
campaign document. Pretty nearly
everybody knows that the President
is right in saying THAI such a peace
would place an ineffaceable stain
upon the gallaptry and honor of the
United States. He adds that such
a peace with Germany, a peace in
which none of the essential interests
which we had at heart when we en-
tered the war is safeguarded, is, or

Here is no false alarm. Every act

that if the United STATES will not CO.

The studied affronts to England
and France voiced day after day in

insolence of Mr.. Lodges caustic
