Not only are the women coming out strong for it in various parts of the State and busy as bees pushing their pro- paganda, but even the men are be- ginning to organize.

So long as they don’'t get militant Orlando is prob-. ably safe. 0 Jacksonville is now calling on the newsboys, the ball clubs and the dime picture shows to help her' raise money necessary to entertain the Confederate veterans.

A few strong and capable men in our legislatures generally | without such leaders they would be ineflicient—mere aggre- gations of well-meaning incapables chiefly useful as raw material for the satire of the cartoonist and the paragrapher. But a legislature made up of such men as John B. Jones of Pensacola would be a body of statesmen to commang the re- spect of all, and the supreme court couldn’t drive a coach and four through its acts and nullify them as unconstitutional. We consider the candidacy of Mr. Jones for the Florida Senate as a matter of State-wide importance, ludiciously for the making of our laws is a very serious matter and to get first-class men on the job is very greatly to be desired. the Pensacola Journal is warmly isupporting Mr. Jones for the Sen- ate and we reproduce from that paper the followingg to show how right we are in our estimate of the man: “Mr. Jones has long been identi- fied with that wing of the Demo- cratic party to which we owe those progressive reforms that have of re- We welcome a new exchange, the Arcadia Daily News, published by the DeSoto County News every af- ternoon, with Will C.

Thus is our State indebted to that memor- able ‘“cold spell” for two of our best editors and preachers and ex- emplars of the whole duty of man, and to that extent do we give it| praise.

He was fighting for political pri- maries when the party and the State were dominated by the old corrupt convention rule. He was advocating the public control of public utilities before even the rail- road commission had made itself useful. A believer in the fitness and the right of the people to rule, his political life has been identified with the work of bringing the peo- ple and the government closer to- gether angd his political activities have always been dictated by the purest of motives.” BRI A Dollar Spent With the Home Merchant Circulates at Home and Helps Home Trade control | [the proceedings of those bodies, and’ We are glad to see that!
