Under the legislation which has just
passed the House of Representatives,
Florida will receive $11, 532 annually
from the federal treasury to be used
in the care of mothers thru the period
of maternity and for the care and
protection of infants. The appropria-
ton is contingent on the state match
ing every federal dollar with dollar
of its own, so that the total amount
made available by the legislation is
$23,064 per annum. We hope the
Florida legislature will have the in
dependence to ignore this paternal-
istic, socialistic and black republican
piece of legislation.

After months of work and worry,
Congress has passed the revenue bill,
and the president has signed it. It
is expected to raise three billion dol
lars. 1t is not good bill. No reve-
nue. bill ever was good bill. 1t was
passed by republican congress and
signed by republican president. All
the democrats are mad; also most of
the republicans. If Congress and the
president had been democrats, the
bill would have been a bad bill and
the people would have howled, just
the same. There is one good thing
about it, and that is that it has been
passed. Now business knows what to
expect-until next November. There
will be an election at that time, and
if the democrats win they will at once
go to work on a revenue bill as bad
as the one now law. We would like
to see the democrats win. We would
also like to see democrats, also re-
publicans, when they go into power,
instead of tearing up the work of their
predecessors, try to improve on it.
That is what a business firm would
do, and the Congress of the United
States should be the board of direc-
tors of the biggest business firm in
the world.

And now some of the doctrinaires,
who would rather their neighbors'
Threats were cut according to conven-
ton than unconventionally defended,
are finding fault with Postmaster
General Hayes because he has had
armed guards from the marine corps
put on the mail cars. A few nights
after the marines went on guard, a
bunch of hoboes climbed on the plat
form of mail car, were fired on by
c marine and one killed. An unfortu-
nate occurrence, and reprehensible in
normal times. But these times are
not normal. The country is full of
bandits, and in the past two years the
mails have been robbed of millions
of dollars. And a great deal of the
money stolen has been in registered
letters, small amounts sent by people
who can't afford to lose the money
Postmaster Hayes has a good plan
Let it be carried into full execution
Let the marines shoot and let honest
and sensible people stay off the plat
forms of mail cars and out of dark
alleys near the postoffices. The mail
of hundred million people is of more
consequence than the lives of a few
hoboes.

CHRISTOPHER O. CoDRINGToN

1t was with sorrow that we read
Saturday the brief dispatch that told
that c. o. Codrington, editor of the
DeLand News, was no more.
In the death Of Chris Codrington
the state of Florida as well as his
own family and home town have suf-
fered a heavy loss. AS public
sririted citizen, as an intelligent and
independent journalist and as a good
business man, he has for more than
a quarter, of century filled a large
place in the affairs of DeLand and
Volusia county.
Mr. Codrington was the second SON
OF Col. c. c. Codrington, who in the
eighties established in DeLand the
Florida Agriculturist, the first sue
cessful agricultural paper in this
state. Col Codrington was a British
subject, descendant of the old Eng
lish family which among its members
numbered Admiral Codrington, who
commanded the allied fleet which de-
feated the Turks at Navarino and en-
sured Greek independence. Col. Cod
rirgton came to Florida in 1878 from
Jamaica, in which island his son,
Christopher was born in 1870. Chris
topher lived nearly all his life in De-
Land. He received part of his educa-
| ton at DeLand Academy (now Stet-
son University, but most of it in his
fathers printing Office. When the Ag-
riculturist passed out of his fathers
hands, he took position on the
News, then in its infancy. For few
months, while yet in his teens, he
edited the Volusia County Record,
then he went to Jacksonville, where
he "held cases" on the Times Union
for two years. In November, 1892,
he bought the DeLand News, and was
editor and manager of that paper I'M
til his last day.
1t was the writer's privilege to be
the personal friend of "Keto" Cod
rington during two years that they
worked together, and tho circum-
stances have kept US apart for more
than thirty years we have always
watched his career with the closest
interest, and had full confidence in
his courage and devotion to the pub
lie good. He has been a faithful
worker for his city and county. Not
only are they officially the bet
ter for his life and work, but much
of their material good has been plan
ned by his brain and built by his
hands.
What he has done has been the
more to his credit from the fact that
he never was physically strong man
As boy he was small and weak, and
many of his early days were passed in
| great pain. But he had strong and
brilliant mind and great moral cour-
age, which impelled him to combat
difficulties which would have daunte6
far stronger men. AS we remember
him, he was most generous anC
faithful to his friendships, willing tc
give largely; asking nothing but sin.
cerity in return. Truly, his profes.
|. sion has lost a man whose place viii
