KILLED BY NEW COUNTIES

Replying to the suggestion of the
Parm Beach Post that bloc of South
Florida representatives filibustering
for a fair reapportionment bill, might
make the next session of the legisla-
ture an unusually interesting one, the
Tampa Tribune says:
"There should be no necessity for a
South Florida bloc; after the manner
in which all the state repudiated the
attempt to fasten a new unfairness on
this part of Florida and continue it for
at least ten years. The voters have
said that while they want reappor-
tionment, it must be one that does
justice to every county. They have
declared that no more Juggling of
representation is to be allowed. The
she'll game that was tried to be work.
ed by a few politicians having COM
troll of the legislature has been barred.
The "pea" under the shell is too
lelusive, and the lingering of the shall
game man is too fine to be allowed,
even by the politicians themselves"
We do not know what these papers
means by a fair reapportionment or
how they would go about obtaining
one. Since the proposed amendment
was defeated largely through South
Florida votes the next state house of
representatives after constitutional
apportionment must consist of sixty
eight members and no more. There
are sixty-one counties in Florida and
each of these must have represen-
tative. The other seven must be ap-
portioned in proportion to population
but no county can have more than
three. Under the constitution as it
stands if a reapportionment were
made Duval would have three repre-
sentatives and Hillsborough three.
This would take four of the seven
representatives that are in excess of
the number of counties. The other
three would go to Escambia, Polk and
Alachua-the next most populous
counties. The other counties would
have only one representative each
The apportionment would have to be
based on the census of 1915 if made
in keeping with the constitution. Du-
val would have one representative
for $4,000 people, Hillsborough one
for $4,000; Escambia one for 20,500;
Polk one for $4,000 and Alachua one
for $4,000. Jackson with a popula-
ton of only one hundred less than
Alachua would be the most populous
county with only one representative
but it could not be given the second
representative at the expense of Es-
Gambia, Polk or Alachua for it was
a little less populous than the small
est of them in 1915. 1t could not be
given the extra representative at the
expense of Hillsborough for that
would require $4,000 to elect one rep
resentative in Hillsborough. The best
that could possibly be done under the
constitution as it is, would be three
representatives each for Duval and
Hillsborough, two each for Escambia,
Polk and Alachua and one each for
the other counties. The constitution
requires the making of such an ap-
portionment but it will not be made.
eapportionment has been killed by
the making of new counties.

CHRISTMAS PRESENTS

I'll probably give him a row of books
That he's read, or case of clothing
hooks,
Which will fold up small and he put
away,
And will never be found on travelling
Or shaving set with mirror small,
In which he can't see his chin at all,
Or perhaps I'll give him fountain
pen,
Or something "cute" to hang in his
"den."
(Oh, eden" is a terrible thing to call
The room that man likes best Of
allD
I'd like to give him something new,
Like crystal flask filled with morn
ing dew,
l begged of the flowers that loved US
That summer morning so long ago;
Or I'd like to write little songs of
mine
In book as green as an ivy vine,
Little songs of the things that we
loved the best,
Like the high-hung swaying robins
nest
We found last spring by the sleepy
brook,
When he held me high so that I could
look.
Why is it Christmas changes him
From a cousin of the cherubim
I'd like to give him big balloon,
All gold and round like a summer
moon,
But he'd never guess the reason
why.
So all l can do is sit and sigh,
And send him self-fIled fountain

Or something "cute" to hang in his
"den!"--M. c. L., in Life.
