It would cost nothin,, and the primary is the only way that the people can really have a say-so. We that such a primary would Woodrow Wilson to be Florida's ta- vorite. PR R If Albert M, Williamson wants the support of this paper for (‘ongress- man-at-Large, he will have to re- vise the ratio of legal advertising to editorial matter in his paper, the Floridian. The present ratio is about 32 to 1, and though William- son may be able to handle even a legal advertisement in a way to make 1t funny, we prefer “‘he humor of his criginal squibs. R. R. Tomlin is considering again becoming a candidate for member of the Legislature from Hillsborough county. Mr. Tomlin made a splendid record ip the last Legislature, and the State will be fortunate if it can secure more men like him in the next General Assembly. - o All zood things are coming o Lakeland, and this will be the greatest year in her history.

Cromwell Gibbons of Jacksonville, J. W. \Watson of Miami, Park Trammell of Lakeland and W. H. Milton of Marianna, all of whom are good men and haye sup- porters in every section of the State. For Congressman at large there are four candidates so far announced -Capt. J. Ed. O'Brien of Pensacola, Cel. Beacham of Orlando, Col. Mar- |lin of Brooksville and Claude L-En- vle of Jacksonville, It is too early to predict the result in this instance, as well as in other contests in the State at large. The race for Superintendent state Schools will undoubtedly be in- teresting, State Supt. Holloway and Hon. W. N.
