Your invitation, if such it may be called, to this discussion a5 the only reply I received to the statement I made to you that you had ob. tained some stolen dictation from my office and had published a forgery of my signature to an unaddressed, undelivered letter.. Your failur. t, PRODUCE THIS LETTER AND ACCOUNT FOR YOUR POSSESSION of it or withdraw and apologize for uttering a flagrant forgery of my name. forfeits for you the right to demand this courtesy at my hands. Second. This is a Democratic primary. I have been engaged in 1 fair presentation to the people of Florida of the views which I entertain upon Democratic principles like the proper regulation of trusts; revisior downward of the tariff; the co-operation by our general government wit;, the several States in building and maintaining interstate highways: the protection of the health of the people of Florida against foreign infec. tion; and questions of equal importance. I desire and intend to con- tinue this method of campaigning, stopping only to answer such private. personal, and business abuse and slauder of me by you as may seem intol- erable. You, upon the other hand, have IGNORED the discussion of any questions, whatever, of public interest, You elected to base your campaign upon statements of your “service to the people” as a sleuth and scandal scavenger, and have spent the rest of your time bitterly attacking Judge Martin and Capt. 0'Brien, two of our former competitors, and es- pecially abusing and misstating my personal and business record. You: sense of propriety is perhaps not so utterly dead as to prevent your real- izing the impropriety of my speaking with you, Third. We have no evidence, from any public performance of yours or any direct expression of -opinion upon any public question, that you are a Democrat at all. There are abundant evidences given to those who know you real well that you are a harmless anarchist; an iconoclast o very meager capacity, without faith or creed or ideals of any kind. The only evidence of your Democracy which has been given to the people of Florida was your sworn statement that you were a Democrat when you qualified as a candidate for this contest, Inasmuch as you neither have nor have not expressed in writing o otherwise any political principles and because your Democracy is of the most shady and doubtful character, there is nothing for me to discuss with you except scandal and private character, and this I positively will decline to engage in. I have no doubt you will make noisy and widespreai political advertisements of my unwillingness, which you will describe as fear, to encounter your over-powering courage and accomplishment in joint discussion. The truth is that I perhaps underrate your splendid ca- pacity in forensic fight; and have not the least fear of your wisdom o: logic or——, Joint discussion with me of business and professional re- pute has been my business for nineteen years and I have really enjoyed it. I prefer to continue my campaign, going as I will to the people and discussing Democratic doctrines andFlorida’s future welfare, and not to interrupt you in the operation of your “mud mill’ but to allow you to stagnate and strangle in the stench arising from the publication, anl free distribution of “Dixie,” the scandal-sheet, which is your only clain For those who smoke the splendid cigars carried, Lakeland and Tampa makes.
