WARMNLY APPRECIATED 5, 1913, THE KVENING TELEGRAM, LARELAND, FLA., JULY 25, 19 T ———————————————————————————— begin' are movad to speak in hand- oomp terms om the subject. Says the Tribune: “The Lakeland -Telezram adorns its first page with a picture of the new building which is to be built for it. The contract will be ist Aug. 1 and the building will be completed as gpecdily as is consist- ent with good workmanship. The Tribune is particulerly plexsed wlthi!‘ the success of Editor Hetherington’s newspaner cnteipriccs anrd rejoices fn this latest evidence of that suc- both [Fletherington properties, rep- resent the vory best ju newspaper- | dom and they have been worth an | inestimable sum to this section and! to Lakcland. ideals of journalism and they are a | credit to Florida and to he newa. paper business.” { And says the Times: 22nd inst. contained a handsome picture of the new building that ' -its proprietor proposes to erect for the housing of the paper and for the accommodation of the enlarged plang that he intends to put in im- mediately. The building, to judge by the cut, would do credit to &, larger city then @akeland. it is| exceelingly handsome and tasteful | in its architecturs »ud vill contain | ample space fo: the purposes of ev- : ery part of the establishment. It is exteedirgly gratifying to hig con-! freres of the press to percelve these ! indications of the increasd proiper-i ity of th editor and owner of the Teleerata and News. There are no better napers in their respective | flelds In the State than these and | there 18 no editor worthier than Brother Hetherington of the popi- »f | | larity that he has achleved by his abiily ane his many exvellent pep- ™ sonal qualities. The Times @xten.'lnf hearty congratulations,” | (U e The esteemed St. Augustine Rec. ord is pleased with the looks of that prospctive new home for the i, penth Tennessce Aistrict, 1s Telezram and kiddly says: “Editor Hetherington of the Lakeland Telegram is going to build & new three-story modern building for the Telegram—indicating that that bright daily is appreciated by its patrons as it should be.” —_—— Postmaster General Burleson continues to show up the Hitchcock administration of the postoffice de- partment. We always suspected Hitchcock was a good deal of a humbugz in his pretensions as a mighty administrator and great re- former, and revelations of his in- competency by the new postmaster general show our suspicions well founded. We have always wondered why there were so many negroes in the Southern railway mail service— how they counld pass the necessary examination—and now {t appears that the shrewd trick of allowing one competent negro to be exam- ined for a dozen ignorant ones was resorted to. He took the examina- tions in their names and no means were taken to prevent the fraud. Mr. Burleson will break up that rascally business. RS EISEED ST At last we have some refreshing certainty, some commendable de- cision of character, some fixed point from which to reckon in the suber- natorial campaizn. The Jackson- ville Mectropolis of yest 1y says: “De. J. A.
