1t Cannot Be Done.

The Punta Gorda Herald says: 1.-THE
greatest problem to be solved by the
legislature when it meets in April, is
how to reduce taxes and at the same
time increase revenues" If the Herald
is correct, it has stated an impossible
thing.
We think the Herald is wrong, at
least in part. Reduction of taxes, while
nightly to be wished by some, is not
an essential to state or personal hap
piness and continued progress. In
crease of revenues is not entirely de-
manded; and except in the matter Of
roads and schools is not to be consid-
cred.
The problem before the coming leg
islature is rather one of finding a
way to make all taxable property bear
it's just part of the government and
improvement burden, instead of per-
hitting a great part of 1t to sneak out
of responsibility.
If the same tax millage be retained,
levied and collected on all the proper
ty of the state, real and personal, tan
gible and intangible. there will be an
abundance of funds for the necessi-
ties of Florida
On the other hand, as the Herald
suggests, some of the useless appen-
dages to the body polite should be
ruthlessly cut off and the necessary
expense of supporting them be re-
moved. there will be no need for
additional revenue. other than those
coming in from the equitable taxing
arrangement.
The Tribune is not ready to urge
commission government for a state,
although for smaller political units
it is proven the ideal one. However,
the day may come when the state
may elect a general manager instead

In this inspired editorial it is stated
that If the people of st. Andrews wish
to operate this road they had best
lease it for a dollar a year" etc,
from the A & St. A. B. Ry. company.
How is the latter to grant lease on
a road they neither own or have a
lease on? Yet this is but one of the
inconsistent statements made by the
organ. To abandon the line into St.
Andrews would certainly damage the
bond holders of the a. & st. A. 3. Ry.,
as it furnishes no small share of the
entire roads earnings.
Another quite surprising statement
is that Neither the president nor
executive vice. president is drawing
cent salary" And it states that this
can also be proved by an examina-
tion Of the company's books. These
are most wonderfully kept and con-
venient books. but to an onlooker of

Hardng's Stand for Thrift.
President-elect Harding is to be con-
graduated for his stand in requesting
that the extravagant plans for the in
augural ceremony be abandoned. The
need for national economy and thrift, the
dispatch says lis one that Mr.. Harding
emphasized a great deal during his pub
lie speeches. and the criticism in congress
over proposed appropriations for inaug-
uration purposes many a deep impress
sion on his mind. Accordingly, he asked
that ali show of extravaganza be elimi-
mated and that he merely take his oath
of office, deliver brief address and then
take up the duties of his office.
That view is the sensible one and it
is fortunate that the Republicans did not
carry their aversion to all precedents set
by Mr.. Wilson, as far as to carry out the
elaborate program, just because Mr..
Wilson was the one who abolished the
festivities. Further than that, the in
augurai ceremonies are never very i'm
pressive events. Except for the size
OF the crowd that gathers they mean
very little. 1t takes a Latin people to do
Justice to ceremonies of this sort. They
are alien to the American and deteriorate
accordingly. If. as some expect, there
will be spontaneous festivities or par

Evidence of Economy In State Matters.
The new state administration is al
ready giving gratifying evidence of its
determine ton TO undo as fast as pos
sible the mischief done by the Cats
regime. The state highway board has
gone to pieces and has been reorganized
in way it is hoped may be of some
future service to the state. The four
state convict inspectors have been asked
to resign with a view to reorganization
of the board with a reduced number. As
they draw $500 each and expenses there
will be a considerable saving to the state
by reducing their number TO an efficient
working basis. Governor Hardee may be
assured of the support of the entire state
in cutting off these useless sinecures and
tax eaters.-Tampa Times.

ING TIDE.

In ne country is 1T more Important
| to have good manners than in our own
and vet here there is a great detlci-
ency and care and instruction in this
particular. Sometimes we censure girls
| for laughing loudly in public, yet II
| they have never been taught otherwise
how can we blame them? Sometimes
girl will get on a crowded street car
and make such caustic remarks that
one man will finally feel compelled to
give her his seat, We are not excus-
ing him. Perhaps he should have done
SO in the first place. but the girl cer-
tainly cheapened herself and gave an
unpleasant display of her disposition.
Good manners are not in the least
difficult TO cultivate. They mean moth
ing more than thoughtfulness for 9TH
ers. Contending too much for your
rights stirs up the selfish feeling of
Others, while readiness to yield them
awakens generous sentiments and
leads to mutual Accommodations. The
greater your advantages have been.
the more polite and considerable you
should be to others who are not so for
tunate as to possess the opportunities
you have had. II you wish TO be well
bred. you must carry your manners
with you. Good breeding is not a thing
that can be laid aside and put on at
pleasure, True politeness is accom-
panied by the calm self possession
which belongs to noble simplicity OF
purpose, and unless you cultivate 1t
and exercise 1t upon all occasions and
toward all persons it will never be
part OF yourself.
