All honor to the men who conceived it and carried it throuzh with such effective discipline, and equal honor " to the fine, public-spirited men and | women who made up its constituent parts and co-operated with such en- [0 thusiasm to make it the glorious ' Buccess it was. i It was Lakeland, I'olk county amd South Florida in epitome, and to ev- ery appreciative soul who saw it all ' from start to finish and realized its ness it will be an unforgetable mem- ory. We have seen some parades in our day, but all things considered we never saw a better or more instruc- tive one than that of yesterday even ! though there was no military feature to furnish the thrills, —0 ENCOURAGE THE BOY SCOUTS A noteworthy feature of the big parade in Lakeland yesterday was our local camp of Boy Scouts, fine, manly young fellows marching un- der the leadership of Mr. Kelsy Blanton, who in the most praise- | worthy spirit has done so much for i this camp and helped to develop the true Boy Scout ideals in these Lake- il 1 . full-rounded beauty and complete- WILL MANAGE HIS OWN CAMPAIGN Senator Fletcher is back in Flor- ida for a brief vacation and in an interview in the Jacksonville Times- Union he has an interview which will be of interest to the people gen- erally as it has reference to his cam- paign for re-election and shows how he intends to conduct it. It i8 the plain and manly statement of a plain and manly man, and we reproduce the following from it. an inquiry as to who would manage his campaign, the senator replied: “It isn't going to be such a big Jjob but what I can manage it my- self. 1 propose to have an office here and direct the disposition of all official, public business and at the same time attend to matters ap- pertaining to the coming primary. When I became a candidate in1908, |1 went straight to the people, repre- serting and backed by no particular clique, ring, faction or class. I asked nobody’s permission to run and I bore the tax and burden of the race myself. Precisely the same will be the course I will pursue in this contest. I represent all the people without distinction as to whether they be “plain” or ‘‘common” or oth- erwise and 1 will submit to them— the whole people—whether they de- sire me to continue to represent them or not. I propose to show them that I have been faithful to the trust they reposed in me and that I have ren- dered efficient service and am in position to serve them to greater ef- fect in future than was possible in the past or would be possible for any new man. T will have to return to Washington from time to time, as public business requires, but I will visit every portion of the tSate and meet as many of the people and as frequently as possible. I call on the working people to ask those who know and can give my record on all matters in which labor is interested. I call on the people of the counties to get my record respecting legisla- tion and movements nationally af- fecting them. I call on the merchant, the manufacturer, those engaged in commerce and industries of all kinds, to consider my record on all questions concerning them. All those who have public spirit who favor progress and development and the forward march of things, who feel an Interest in the government and have a care for falthful, dili- Answering | NEW SIGNALS FOR POLICE [ 2% i ¢ ! wreans for polie sigrals the iustaliation of which is i ¢ dried hy the autnorities of Washin~tcn, treen flashes from the electr i at the top of th zandeva well 1 con bheat to call up their precinet 1S al once. obe NS AAAAA .
