TELLING THE STORY

Every fair held in Florida is a medium of state
advertising CT very great value. That has always
been especially true of the State air held in Jack
sonville III the early winter. 1t is eminently true
ct the South Florida Fair held at Tampa and it
will also be true of the Sub Tropical Fair which
will open in Orlando tomorrow. Thousands of
people were attracted to the Tampa Fair not only
from points in Florida but from many outside
places. he effect cn each Of these classes, home
ioi&s ard visitors, was much the same There are
many flo!ialans who know little CT nothing about
Florida-some to surprising degree. This lack
OF knowledge is perhaps more along the line of
special information regarding natural resources or
a failure 10 realize and recognize the advantages
that lie at cur very doors. On the part Of many
outsiders 1t Is case Of misconccption of what we
have this cten being The result of transformation.
In beth cases the fair is an educator and positive
demonstration. here is nc doubling the story
told through the eye to the observer when he or
she lnspects the exhibits of fruits, flowers, live
stock, dairy products and the hundred and one
otIler Items thai go to show how diversified are
the resources OF this great state. Tampa deserves
unstinled credit for Tie manner in which the
South Florida Fair was this year conducted. 1t
took hme, energy, money and faith to put over
proposition CT that magnitude. The state is under
a dclt Of gratitude to T ampa for what has been
accomplished

that this state will seriously consider exchanging
genuine Florida senator for senator at large.
TOO MUCH MATERIAL.

In ordinary murder cases. when you find mo-
tive and man capable Ct committing such
crime The mystery is usually about solved. But
the latest California sensation seems to be an ex-
cepticn to that rule In that case there is an en-
barassment CT riches. Nearly everybody who was
acquainted with Taylor seems to have had mo-
tive, and the great majority of them capable of
committing the crime
Taylor seems to have been gay though not
especially vicious, Lotharo. The screen actresses
all ate out of his hand. Besides, he had myster-
ious past, involving a long absence from the lime
light and probable change of name.
1t is an interesting case from the point of view
OF the detective. 1t is pity Sherlock Holmes is
not in the west to apply his nductive methods al
though is certain none of the triumphs accredited
10 him had half so many possibilities.
The police appear TO be running in form. The
mystery is totally beyond their capacity, although
it Is likely they may blunder upon its solution
through the mere breadth of their dragnet But,
really, it would be pity to spoil such handsome
and romantic mystery. When finally solved it will
make but one scenario; in its unsolved form, it is
good for dozen.

MR.. BRYAN IN FLORIDA

Scmc of the newspapers, mos y out-ol-slate
papers, which arc boosting Mr.. Bryan for dc
senate, are handing ou Tie astonishing informa-
ton that the great commcner has been practical
" resident of Fcnda fer the last eight years
That is truly a free translation of the facts
Within the last eight years. as The press has kept
us advised, Mr.. Bryan has been just as practical
~ resident CT exas, where he owns. or did
OWN, big ranch and spent many pleasant Gays,
and Of Ashvc, N. C., where he is also said 10
lave owned home, to say nothing Of his legal
residence In Nebraska where he voted, ran FOR
oflce and manipulated the political slot machine.
His constituents would have been surprised and
panied two years ago, when, after hard fight,
they elected him delegate 10 the national conven-
ton at San Francisco, if he had greeted them with
one of his famous smiles and told them he was
practically" a resident of Florida
The truth is, Mr.. Bryan has been domicIed in
Florida less than year. He will be qualified
voter at the primary this year. but that is all 1t
is not to his dscredit but it is fact which can not
be shunted aside if the senatorial primary ticket
should happen to have his name on it. And. with
the kindest feelings in the world for the silver
tcnsued lecturer the Telegram does not believe

AN oRAToRIcAL WONDER
(Tampa Tribune.)


Representative AnsOrage, Republican of New
York City, is one of the ora orcal wonders of this
congress. In fact, if the truth were known. it is
probable that Ansorage as a spel-bnding speech
iier, can Guido anything in the house that stands
on two legs. He has the New York habit of doing
Kings with rush and slam developed to a state
OF perfection that 1t is marvellous to behold.
This Gothamte one day recently was given one
minute to address his colleagues, and, according
TO the Congressional Record, his oratory SO cap.
tlVated the house that he was appladded five
times. 1t is doubtful if William Jennings
Bryan in his most eloquent flights of speech, can
lay claim to ever having won applause at the
rate OF one cutburst every twelve seconds
There is, of course, widespread interest to know
wnat 1t was. Mr.. Ansorage said, that was SO en-.
thusas ically received in the lower branch of the
national legislature. WE'LL here it is: 81 merely
ask unanimous consent to revise and extend INV
remarks"
representative Lanham, of Texas, did not think
any applause was included in the consent and
spoke right out in meeting and said so, which was
serious breach of Congressional -eitouette as
understood by some congressman.

ROAD BUILDING IN FLORIDA
Jacksonville Times-Union.)


The supreme court has sustained the motor We
hcle license law and by doing has clarified
the road situation in Florida to a considerable
extent The last Legislature adopted plan for
raising money for road constructions that was
fully adequate to the needs of the state if its
provisions met the test of the cour-s.
Heavy vehicles under the old license law were
not taxed half as much as they should have been
not half enough to repair the damage they did
to the roads. 1t is nothing more than right that
they should be taxed enough to pay for the dam
age they cause A number of motor trucks are
engaged in the freight or passenger business and
are using the roads the people of Florida built
for them. 1t is nothing more than right that
these should pay enough to repair the damage
they do. startling revelation of the extent to
which heavy trucks were failing to meet the
damage they inflicted shown by dispute as
to the payment the government should make for
the damage done by trucks at Camp Johnston to
the roads of Duval county careful estimate
was made of the damage done but the officer
representing the government was not willing to
allow more than the license of the trucks would
have cost and that did not amount to one-ten:h
of the damage done.
The road department at present constituted
is showing a praiseworthy activity in the eonN
struction OF roads. Work is progressing in many
parts Of the state and the activity now displayed
will soon result in greatly extended system Of
hard surfaced roads. The department is securing
result S fully commensurate with it's outlay. In
praising the department now constituted we
do not wish to be understood as censuring the
old department. 1t began many projects and
did a great deal of preliminary work but COM
pleted next to nothing But the members of the
department year or more ago had plans that
depended on a vote of the people for their execu-
ton and the people did not vote to raise the
money as the department hoped 20 raise. The
department it is now constituted knows ex-
actly what to expect and plans accordingly. The
result is rapid road building which will benefit
all parts of the state.

TEARING THE VEIL AWAY
FROM THE BONUS AGITATION
jacksonville Metropolis.l

Jacksonville Metropols)
Because one ex-service man condemned the
Houston Post for its stand on the bonus issue,
which stand is identical to the taken by the
Metropolis, another ex-service manu- writes to
the Pos: and says: 81 going you one better
when | tell you that in the coming election in
tend to scratch every man in the senate or the
house who the papers show to have voted for
this bill
II more eX-service men assume this at itude-
and it is justified, because the proposed bonus is
nothing more than scheme to win the favor of
eX-service men and their friends-the Republican
congress will drop the bonus like hot potato
Ex-service men throughout the coun ry are
realizing the moving force at the bottom of bonus
agitation and are denouncing it in the bitterest
words at their command. lot of false pic ures
have been painted, but These are disappearing
as the cold light Of facts is trained Them their
colors and even outlines disappear in the glare
Would the Republicans act favoraby on the
bonus if they did no: think it would reflect glory
to the party
Would it be necessary for them to ever dis.
cuss it if they had lived up to their campaign
promises instead of pddling away their time in
seeking to serve the special interests that
financed their last campaign?
Both questions can be answered with sim
pie NO"
Congressional elections will be held this year
and strenuous effort is being made to cultivate
friendship now in order that Republican cand-
dates may be successful at the polls. This is the
Icing and short of bonus talk
Ex-service men would be justified in rising up
as body and Aingng challenge to Congress,
not challenge for passage of the bonus bill, but
challenge to Republican inefficency and camou-
haged trickery The veil should be torn away
