The year 1925 was remarkably free from serious labor troubles, xcept in the coal fields, and a bet- ter feeling between capital. and labor seems to be rapidly develop- ing. Captains of industry are showing a growing appreciation of the corporals and privates, and vice versa, “2 After discovering the South Pole and getting close to the North one without any serious re- sults, Roald Amundsen caught a cold in Los Angeles and had to go to bed. Florida papers will probably make the most of it. By a ruling of the. Missouri prison board, bank wreckers and ther socially prominent crooks will no longer be given soft cleri- eal jobs in the penitentiary, but must do manual labor. It will be tough on them to have to associate with common folks like that. ~An editor of the Boston Trans- eript nodded at his typewriter and =wrote of the valor of “Stonewall” "Jackson at the Battle of New Or- leans.

With the exception of Texas pressure is low from the Rocky Mountain plateau to the Atlantic coast. Within the last 24 hours there were rains on the west Gulf coast and throughout the entire country from the Miss- issippi Valley eastward except southern Florida. This morning it is some- what cooler in the west Gulf States, slightly “tolder over the lower Lake region, and 10 to 15 degrees warmer in Maryland, Virginia and the Carolinas; elsewhere the thermal changes were neg- ligible. . Temperatures are now normal, or above, in all sections. The winds over the’ Florida Keys tonight and Wednesday will be: Moderate south- erly and westerly, shifting to northerly and possibly _be- coming fresh. Official in Charge. H. B.

Hathaway, chair- man of the state road department and J. L.

Senator Norbeck boasts that he has never been beaten in contesting for office and confidently expects to hold his seat in the upper house of |Congress for another six years. |His record as war governor of South Dakota gave him a reputa- tion outside the confines of his |own state and in the senatorial contest that followed his term as governor he came through with flying colors, despite vigorous op- position from the combined forces of the Democrats and Non-Parti- san Leaguers. Senator Norbeck was born in Dakota Territory some fifty years ago, and has grown up with his state. Before entering actively into politics he was a mer- chant, farmer and well driller in turn. eoue eccce eccce TODAY’S BIRTHDAYS eooccce eee ee Cardinal Bourne, archbishop of Westminster, born at Clapham, England, 65 years ago today.

OF FLORIDA ida State Senate from the Twen- ty-fourth istrict, subject.to the Democratic primary. There will be a number of matters of vital importance to this District, and particularly to Mon- roe County, in the 1927 session of the Legislature. The bound- aries of the City of Key West will have to be changed to include the Florida East Coast Railway terminals. The ten year contract will expire with the 1927 session. I am a party to the contract ex- jeluding the terminals from. the City in consideration of the con- | struction of the Casa Marina ho- tel in 1917. I very much desire to personally see that these terminals are reincluded in the |City limits. No one has in the | slightest degree intimated opposi- tion to the terminals being rein- corporated in the City, neverthe- tf less if I am reelected to the Sen- | ate I pledge that the terminals will be placed back within the cor- porate limits of the City of Key | West. 3 My long service ih_the Senate | qualifies me for efficient service. During the campaign I will make further declarations of principles which shall govern me in the Sen- ate. I solicit the support of the Democratic voters of this Dis- | trict. 1 WILLIAM H.
