This race is on a course that stretches from Key West to the northeasterly end of Key Largo, and the winners, speaking locally, will preside in Monroe county offices for four years, beginning January, 1953. _ John M. Spottswood is the first entrant in the prim- ary contest, which will be held in May. He is aspiring for the office of sheriff, from which Berlin A. Sawyer will re- tire at the end of his term. At least another candidate has been mentioned for sheriff, and probably, as usual, half _a dozen will be in the race before the date for filing ends. Earl R. Adams was the second to announce. He is 4 candi- date to succeed himself es county clerk. But the race for sheriff will be only one of several local contests, and the outlook is all of them will be “hot.” Réports making the rounds of Key West are that, thus far; every county officer, excepting one, will have opposi- | tion. : mepptative Bernie C. Papy will be upsfor nomina- tion for‘his tenth term’ in the Florida House of enta- tives, and J. Y. Porter, after elections returns had heen made in May of 1950, announced that he would oppose | Papy in the 1952 primary. Since then he has not said any- thing, so far as The Citizen has heard, that has indicated a change of mind. Opponents of other officers have not been as out- spoken, though, for several months, the talk around town has been that the opposition line-up had been completed. However that may be, whoever runs, incumbents and op- ponents alike will be accorded fairnegs by The Citizen as much to one as to the other. The Citizen is a Democratic newspaper and the primary is Democratic, so let Demo- crats settle among themselves who shall represent them on their ticket next November. The races for governor and U. S. senator are creating much interest and much guessing also. The guessing is centered chiefly in former Senator Claude Pepper. Will he run for governor or will he elect to try to unseat Spes- sard Holland as senator? That question has been pro- pounded by Florida newspapers, time and again, but they | have not yet learned what the answer will be. The cheapest way to fight a war is to let other na- tions fight for you. Ninety per cent of the people who say they talk too much are accurate. And then there are those who sit around waiting to be called on a jackpot quiz program.
