CARNIVAL OF PROGRESS ! ol This ballot clipped from the & Lakeland Evening Telegram, Ql CHICKENS AND COWS ARE DISCUSSED Editor Telegram: 1 note with in- terest Mr. Munn’s desire to estab- lish a chicken ordinance, which is also well and good, but I believe in doing things to a finish, and as we 80, and not in part, and this looks to me like leaving our work undone behind us. This, T wish to say, has reference to the cow ordinance and which ig an imposition upon the peo- Ple who are doing everything in their bower to make and develop the old village into a modern city. Here 1 wish to ask if we must continue our efforts in this direction; if so, let it good for one vote for King and Queen of the Carnival, New Year’s Day, 1914, =1 be consistent. Can we imagine our- selves in a modern city with village s conditions? Centainly not; if we de- el E e R P e R ped For QUEeN ..o vevssvnrayoe pul & b o2 OB U BBV A G S D L0TS CAST FOR KING ND QUEEN OF THE CARNIVAL E. Chunn . 204 . Drane .85 |, Angell .... 72 D.

(man say: “What is poor old Widow So and So going to do?” In answer to this question, 1 wish to say that T have all the sympathy in the world for this widow, but don’t you think that if by fighting this very poor widow and several men who make their living selling milk made from city grass we having established for 1‘thom a good market for their milk and at the same time increased the [value of their property two times, (that it would be money to them to (sell and get outside of the city, than to be he who wishes to live in the i(-i[y and enjoy eyery advantage of a modern city and have a cow walk in his front gate and dowp the side- 'walk? Such is not consistent and is ‘imposing’ upon and hindering the de-| velopment of the city. As an exam- ple, I wish to call the attention of the people of diakeland to the fol- ‘lowing condition: About thirty days 1ago I bought a tract of land five blocks from the Kibler hotel, invest- ed about $15,000, cut this property into city lots, and to do this had to pull down the fences. This property was an orange grove. We commenced to build sidewalks. The first thing we had to contend with was a herd down the sidewalk for a hundred feet or more, leaving an impression which 'made it necessary to work the whole walk over again and this same herd stays in this grove throughout the day and almost every day I have the lsame trouble in Dixieland. Now I wish to say that I am for a progressive city, not a village. T am not selfish but wish the best govern- ment we can make consistent with the making of a city whether it is for or against me, but from an unselfish standpoint T will state for informa- tion that I have put into city im- provements over $50,000 in the past | three years and am directly connect- ed with improvements in excess of $100,000 and I desire to continue lthis work of progress. Then do we wish to have a village mingled with the cows, hogs and chickens, or shall we encourage modern chicken farms, dairies and truck gardens surround- ing a modern city. I am for the best interest of the "town and community, but I cannot "see the cow way. Let’s get rid of the cow first and then start something | | | MAJESTIC. 9. L.
