Our park is indeed more than “a cleared space with a walk and a few trecs,” and there is so much of hoth gentimert and utility in its relation to the people of Lakeland that any attempt to appraise it in dollars and cents weuld be useless. Even for ad- vertising purposes it is beyond price, for no man or woman visiting in Lakeland from cther parts of the country ever fails to take away a pleasant memory of the restful charm and quiet beauty of Munn park and tell others of it when sum- ming up the nice features of a win- ter in Florida and comparing the at- . tractions of its various cities and towns. Lakeland is known by sight or repute by people in every State from whence Florida tourists are drawn and our pretty little park Is one of the strong reasons for it. — BETTER TREATMENT FOR THE CONVICT. In getting away from the conviet lease system in Florida, whose evils have been too cften exposed to leave pentine men will not oppose hi: | tified check on some reliable ban* any doubt of them, we are simply in bill when they understand it, as it i< ! gop the sum of one thousand dollars! line with nearly every State in the Unifon and every country in the civ- flized world n looking at the con- viet question from a new angle, We understand now that the true atti- goes the whole length and wants'as a guaranty that such bidder w tude of goclety in this matter is that convicts are human beings to be given an opportunity to reform, not « dopeless incorrigibles to be punished to gratify the revengeful instinct in g joint resolution in the House at come forfeited to the county. A! soclety. comes out of prison a worse man and & more dangerous enemy to social or- der than when he entered It and a system which produces such results {s obviously the wrong system. In 4his connection the following from the Savannah News is to the point: “Indiana has fallen into line with | this country on general prlnelples.'

The two leading fea- , tures of the bill are designed to elim- i inate as far as poesible destructive . forest fires and to prevent the “box- 'ing” for turpentine purposes of pine | trees less than eleven inches in dia- meter as such boxing is fatal to the tree.

The action of the legislative com- mittec at Tallahassee in reporting unfavorably on the preposed amend- ment to the conmstitution grantine suffrage to women in Florida is no surprise to us, but we are rathe: disappointed at the summary way in which the matter was disposed of. There are some exceedingly bright and well-informed women in Florida who have made a special study of this equal suffrage anestion and they exnected to 2o to Tallahassee and present their views to the legisla- ture.
