In a land of uppurtu-l raty like ours, Socialism is good to talk about, but noy to vote for. SRS The majority vote for the two constitutional amendments last | Tuesday, shows that the insistent work of the state press in calling at- tention to them had good eflect. Too often constitutional amend- ments, unless they are leading is sues, are brutally voted down on general principles or calmly ignor- ed. The steady hum of the press tuese days makes everybody wise +=mping out of existence tisorous nuisance and ca- the needless technicality. i e (LS Another National election wili [ doubtless see women voling in & ll.mjoril)' of the States of the Unicn. ey captured four more Statcs last | I'riday.

W. R. O'Neal, late Republi- can candidate for governor of Flori- da, is convineed thap the disaster which befell his party last Tuesday was due to the fact that the people! of the United States werc so pros- perous and had been prosperous #o long under Republican rule that tiey had grown tired of it, ana vanted a change. He doesn’t put it in jusy these words, but that seems to be the meaning. We can readily understand why Mr. O'Neal had no desire to change his particular allot- ment of the widespread Republican prosperity, in vicw of the fact that he is postmaster at Orlandg and his commission doesn't expire until June, 1914, And we want to com- rend to other Republicans in Flori- du the good strong sense of this except the negligible doesn’t read the to live issues ninority that HeWBPApers 0 At last the Supreme Court of the United States has taken the initi- ative in reforming the rules of court procedure and has proclaimed a new departury in this reespeci which will be immensely helpful in expediting justice.
