THE PROCESS OF LAW-MAKING


Many of the legislatures of 48 states
are now in session, and some fearful
and wonderful attempts at law MAX
ing are offered to public view.
No concern of daily life is SO init
mate but that one wants it regulated
by law. The freak bills, however.
are soon laughed out of sight. 9th
ers of a more dangerous character
read very innocently on the surface.
Examination and investigation shows
that they are offered to meet the
needs of some private interest and
they would be an injury to the gen
eral public.
A competent examination of all
these propositions is not an easy task.
The range Of subjects covered by the
requests for iaw-making is so wide,
that each proposition must be submit
ted to small groups delegated to study
the classes of subjects.
The results of legislatures work
depend very largely on the quality of
service rendered by committees. If
the appointment of the same is made
to please politicians, and if the most
brainy and thorough men are buried
in unimportant posts, or put in places
where they do not belong, the COM
mittees will let lot of jokers slip
through. Many sound propositions
will be turned down because they rep
resent a new idea which sluggish
minded men can not grasp.
Good committee work is often spoil
ed by the poor attendance of mem
bers. The man who is given the
responsibility and honor of making
laws for state should attend everv
session of each committee on which
he is appointed He ought to spend

Budapest, which has been saved
from starvation by the American Red
Cross, and which is confronted by all
the miseries of unemployment, infia-

it favorable opportunity to agitate
for the recall of ex-Emperor Charles.
And yet there are persons who think
Europe can be reasoned with.

MY PHILOSOPHY.

kind words can never die; cherished
and blessed.
God knows how deep they lie stored in
the brest!
Like childhood's simple rhymes, said
DER a thousand times:
Ay, in all years and clines, distant and
near,
Kind words can never die sayeth my
philosophy;
Deep in the soul they lie, God knows
how dear!"

David Martin, of Chicago Junction, O.;
Thomas Martin, Sandusky; Mr.. and
Mrs. John R. Kennedy, Parkersburg;
Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Hesen, Keyser.
81 cannot say and l will not say
That she is dead,
She is just away.
With CHEEKY smile and wave of the
hand,
She has wandered into an unknown
land,
And left US dreaming how very fair
1t needs must be.
And youl Oh, you!
Who the widest yearn
For the old-time step and the glad re-
turn.
Think of her faring ones, dear,
In the love of there as the love of here,
Think of her still as the same l say,
She is not dead, she is just away"

large number of friends who attended
the service, thus showing in silent
manner the high esteem in which the
deceased divine was held by people of
every denomination in the community.

ALL PRISONERS
WORK in DUVAL
Those With Federal Sentences Are
Not Excepted.

JACKSONVILLE, April 1S.-Prison-
ers sentenced by federal court no lon
ger will be permitted to take life easy
in their cells but will be put ITO work
on county roads and county farms as
the result of ruling by United States
Attorney Herbert S. Phillips. The rul-
ing was contained in a letter addressed
to Chairman Clark of the Duval county
board of commissioners in reply to one
sent to Mr.. Phillips in which Chairman
Clark asked if the county was allowed
to work federal prisoners. Mr.. Phil
lips letter follows:
Under the law governing federal
prisoners sentenced in the federal
court to serve terms in the county Jail
of Duval county, such prisoners are
subject to the same treatment as
county prisoners. In other words, you
may work the federal prisoners con-
victed and sentenced to serve jail
terms along with county prisoners on
the public highways or have them do
any other public work that county
prisoners are employed upon"
Heretofore it has been the custom to
permit federal prisoners sentenced to
jail terms to serve their entire time in
Jail and in frequent cases federal pris-
oners have received terms amounting
to more than one year Of such con-
finement.

OPPOSE DESTRUCTION
OF HISTORIC MOUND

DAYTONA, April 1S-The plans of
County commissioners to take shell
for road building purposes from Tur-
tie Mound, south of Colorado Beach.
will be vigorously opposed by civic
bodies and citizens of the Halifax
section, who hold that the mound
should be preserved as a historical
feature. The mound is one of the many
built hundreds of years ago by the In
dams by heaping tons of oyster shells,
and they are found in various sections
of South Florida near the Atlantic and
Gulf coasts, but more especially on
the Gulf.
The local chamber of commerce mas
appointed committee to fork out
plans whereby the mound can be
saved and the county commissions 5
have been requested to defer any work
tending to damage its historical value
pending the outcome of efforts to or
ganize a Halifax County Historical
Association with a view to purchasing
the property upon which the mound
Stands.
The mound is said to be the highest
spot on the Atlantic coast south OF
New Jersey and is visible at a great
distance. 1t appears on maps of the
the Minorcans We're shaping the early
history of the Halifax section.
The commissioners several years
ago purchased the mound property
for $4,000.

three months ago, and friend recon-
mended Tanlac to me. Before | fin

come back and my food was agreeing
with me. From then on l picked up
fast and today I'm in as good health as
L was the best day of my life.

more. The nervousness has all gone
and I sleep sound every night. I feel
