Here, in Key West, despite the absence of com- plications, is an opportunity for service which challenges the power of any in- dividuality.

It could do nothing less. As aqueduct is absolutely essential to bring water into Key West, so there is no dispute on that point. Whether the proj- eet should be conducted by a commission or by commissioners is another and de- batable question. The City of Key West is indebted to} population. It is not to be confused with } The Citizen to the appreciable amount of | $13,000.00, yet the city council is engaged im abatements and so-called adjustments of taxes, when the full amount should be demanded, so that the city can pay its cur- rent debts. With the appointment of Senator Gomes to the judgeship of the 11th judi- cial cireuit which was on the speculative | tapix for some time, The Citizen's whirligig had it on unimpeachable authority that’ the choice of the judgship by Govern Cone lay between Senator Gomez and Hon. T. 4. Dowdell, of Miami.

The metropolitan areas,-when all factors are weighed, offer no more, al- though confused thinking sometimes leads us to believe the contrary.
