One chief trouble with our primaries heretofore has been that they were so locsely con- ducted under vague legal provlllons‘ that they were not party prlmarlul fa the true meaning of the word, and men of véry nearly any old political | faith could vote in them, Tais, of course, defeated the very basic pur- pose of a primary law, but nothing o that kind can occur under the| Bryan bill, for one of its provisions fs that vcters must register so as tv show their party affiliations, and no member of once party can vote in primary held by another party. -——0 “South IFlorida gets the tourists, but Suwanunce county is getting Lfl‘: real homeseckers,” says the Live Oak Lem ciut. that the abundant and advantages of geod old Suwantee: Lriog pecnie there to locate and help build up a fine section; but we can't let the implication in the Dem- ocint's statement £o unchallen~ed Beyond all question the bulk of home- geckers coming to this State head gtratsht for South Flovida and lareer proportion of them buy land and becown permanent regidents here than in any other part of Flovida, This In oddition to nine-tenths of the tourists.
