the hands Of settlers who win engage
in an industry which il and always
will be the basis of values agricul-
ture; to smooth a way TO the front
door of our farms; to double the num-
Der Of automobiles in the state; TO
bring the markets closer TO the pro-
Queer; TO shorten the way TO our
beauty spots; to spread the fame Of
Florida and her good roads 10 the far
points of the world. Is there a man
and taxpayer in the state Of Florida
who would not be willing to pay SIS
a. year for a term OF years for all
this? We wonder. Strange to say In
all these arguments against the pro-
posed bonding no one has seemingly
thought Of the certain increases IN
per capita wealth and additional pop
uIation Are the opponents of the
opinion that Florida ID going to stop
where she is And isn't it fact that
the advancement we have made has
been due directly to good roads? Are
we going to stop and wait for each
separate county to line up? Again we
wonder Florida Grower.
There will probably be great
many people who after reading the
foregoing well-written article, will
fail to realize that the Grower has
not even mentioned the main point at
issue il the bonding amendment ear
ries; namely, the ability Of the legis-
Iature to put another sawlog on the
camelss back every time it meets. We
might not object to one $40, 000, 900
bond issue lie we knew the money was
needed and would be honestly spent.
But IL this amendment carries it
gives power not only to the next leg
islature to bond for twenty million
dollars, but the next legislature after
that to bond again, and so on and on
+ and on, thru not only the decades but
maybe the centuries No use to say
the legislature won't do it. Only a
foolish people win give its legislative
body that much power. Seldom ii
is that men or women give up power
once placed in their hands. The his
tory of ages shows that power has to
be wrested from them And with the
power to make a bargain with the
next legislature, by bonding for five
or ten, or maybe another twenty mil
lions, it will be in the opinion OF al
most any legislature, no business to
give the people chance TO repeal this
amendment, once it is saddled on the
state. It is not that we consider the
average Florida legislature to be made
up Of dishonest men. re is made up
Iof average men and will in future
years be made up Of average men and
women, and average men and women
world over and world from begin
ming, and probably world without end
have been loath to give up power
privilege or graft.
This argument alone is worth more
than all the Grower can bring up on
the other side which is probably the
reason why the Grower has carefully
abstained from mentioning it.
