Respoontllvie ] e e s A In no spirit of levity or disparage- ment we have sometimes referred to beautiful St. Petersburg by the home- ly diminutive of St. Pete just as we sometimes speak of Jacksonville as Jax, and in both cases our only mo- tive is to go the shortest road to the desired point. No offense has been intended, hence we are glad to see the following in the St. Pete Times: “None of the State press frater-| nity needs refrain from nor apolo- gize for calling it ‘St. Pete,’ as far asg The Times is concerned. Nick- names will come and will stick, whenever there is anything to hang them on, and the only way to avoid them is to have a name or character so short and meaningless that a nickname is impossible.” S A S I S ATTRACTIVE GOWN Polk county is going to try to get into Escambia’s class by spend- ing $70,000 for a new jail—Pensa- cela News. Better get into Santa Rosa’s class. While we have a good jail, its doors stand open for lack of prisoners.—Milton Gazette. We reproduce ithe above para- graph with genuine pleasure, for, with all other good citizens, we love to know that at least one jail in Florida is empty.
