SOME GOOD THINGS RECOM MENDED BY THE GOVERNOR As w, remarked yesterday, Gov- ernor Trammell's inaugural address was rich in sound practical sugges- tions for the progress of Florida along righg lines. The Tampa Tri- bene summarizes some of the best of them as follows: Simplitied court more speedy trial in both civil and procedure and criminal cases. Establishment of farms in the Everglades; maintenance and care of the drain- experimental federal sge canals Change in diawing prisc in reazonable instalments and conviet system, with- 10rs from lease system plac- ing them wpon the public roads, Stronger and strictep laws against wildcat corporations. | Approval of * land literature hy Stete department of agriculture, m' prevent land frauds and the hood- vinking of innocent purchasers, A constitutional amendment giv- | ing towns and cities the right rn‘ amend their charters, and removing this duty from the Legislature, The governor approves good ro:ul’ tuilding, in rather general terms but does not specify or endorse any plan for the building of State high- ways. In the opinion of the Tri- bune, the State should take action | in this matter and it will undoubt- edly come before the next session of | the Legislature in some definite shape. It is to be hoped the gov- ernor will lend his aid to whatever geod plan is proposed for the build- ing of State highways, On the convict lease question, the governor leaves no room for doubt | as to his attitude. Ile is agninst the leage systvm and belioves it should rass out existence with the ex- piration of present contracts.
