There seems to be a general opin- icp extant that a “man’s got Claude now.” It is believed he polled his full strength in the fiest primary, in which event he will likely con- tinug to issne the only finger-read paper in existence for a while longer. IU's a right pretty scrap, anyway, and we Will enjoy it from a comfortable | position on the fence of which it on both sides | 'ms just a little muddy. Answering the Tribune's comment that “Park Trammell can rest in the knowledge that he has been elected | governor and begin his campaign for | the next office,” we would say that he will begin his campaign for the next office by making good in the one to which he has been elected. We don’t know any better way to cam- paign for a higher office than to fill in a most admirable and unassailable way the one occupied at the time. That's the way Park Trammell has filled every position to which he has been chosen and that's the reason for his constant promotion. “The old woman.” A nice phrase to be using about the dear soul who kept her vigil over you in your in- fancy, Kissed away your tears in childhood and remained your trusted friend in maturity. 1s this all the love you have for the silver-haired mother who bathed your scorching brow all through the long sleepless nights of afMiction, when your brain was wild with burning fever® Is there no other term you can find for Ifor that purpose?” i Stk manyl That stumped us for a moment, |Br¥an if he will agree to make his [Then we asked, “Do You know that |Winter home there,” the grocers ccially e “0ld Vet." of Lakeland un‘lil!‘n:-"'l:-x: :::"l“l‘*'l“.\ are kept up has told with emotion of the treat- Arly midnight Saturdays fill- re, ind do not the stores keep open |88 been given them and present the completed pbroperty to Hon.
