Nor are we quite sure that a law of this kind apply- {ng to all public schools, both for whites and blacks, would not be a wise one.” RS SR As the Legislature proposes to sub- mit quite &« number of constitutional swendments to the people no harm will be done by submitting an equal sviirage amendment along with the pthers, It will precipitate a merry war in Florida and add a touch of sentiment to our politics that will make the campaign all the more in- tercsting; for we may be sure that ‘not only will the suifragettes of this ;State rise as one man in behalf ot the amendment, but that brilliant and eloquent women from other States will come down and join with gheir sisters here to fight the good fight. There isn't the shadow of a doubt about the result of such a con- test; woman suffrage would be beat- en by an immense majority, but at deast it would accustom the voters to the issuc and at some subsequent election they might reverse their verdict. There will be no wave of dndignation nor popular uprising acainst the Legislature if it submits the amendment. The ladies might ag well know the worst as soon as possible. —_— That little matter of the “pond” in Lakeland to which the wife of “Rambler” of the St. Petersburg In- dependent propused to ship him at his request where he could go crazy g, as he seemed likely to do, has been satisfactorily adjusted. Lakeland, Ky., where they have an fusane asylum, was the place re- ferred to--not Lakeland, Fla., where lakes like Como and Killarney mir- ror the loveliness of Italicn skies and people never go crazy except now and then with the joy of liv- ing in such a favored spot. Rambler ought to ramble over here some day and make acquaintance with our city amid the lakes, and we hereby ex- tend him the invitation.
