S LA COREDE It seems that each of the candi- dates for commissioner of agricul- ture has been flirting with the Bull Moose folks a little overmuch, if t'other is to be believed. ORI SIS e McRae sprung his photographic reproduction of that Bull Moose let- ter just within the time limit. But it wag just about a solar plexus for young Thomas. One of the ministers of Ocala is- sues an invitation to the editors to come and fill his pulpit. We have never heard or read any finer ser- mons than some that have appeared in the Ocala Banner. The minister’s congregation will not be losers if the editors should acept his invitation. —0 Publications like Dixie and De- Berry’s Arrow will have a hard time filling up their columns during the .period prior to the primary in which attacks on candidates are barred. Probably, however, other targets for thelr staffs will be found. E— Tallahassee is planning for a safe angd sane fourth of July. You bet! Tallahassee is always safe and sane, except when the Legislature is in session, when it is decidedly neither. —0 Nobodr was responsible for the death of the negro who entered a young white woman's room at Bar- tow the other night, and who a lit- % jater “‘passed over.” He simply committeq suicide in the surest pos- sible manner than can be tried in this section ., FEERELN The Miami Metropolis is thankful that in only two weeks' time we will read no more of the “present” in- cumbent. However, in the senatorial job we are moved to remark that there is no serious doubt but that the “present incumbent” will con- tinue to incumb. ——0 Tampa Tribune wants a “Lover’s Lane'” in that city. Ornamental, perhaps, but not necessary. Two young fools can make a lover's lane out of the busiest thoroughfare or the most sordid side street. Love will fing a way, and needs no lane for its g uidance, but can cut across the corn field or where the roar of traffic is loudest with confidence of not getting lost and of getting there on time.

A. Cole.) (Continued from Yesterday.) What we saw here in the way of attractive homes is not an uncom- mon sight through Florida, for, dot- teq intermittently along some of the larger lakes and rfvers are palatial homes, with yards running down to the ater's edge, with private piers for landing pleasure boats. These homes are set back perhaps a huns| dreq yards or more, and with their green lawns reaching to the river, they present a most attractive ap- pearance. These lawns, by the way, are not set with blue grass, such as our lawus are up north, which do not thrive here; instcad, they are planted in Bermuda grass, which | makes a beautiful lawn in its setting of flowers and fruits. Some of these homes are owned by all-the-year- round residents, while others belong to persons who come only for the winter. From Bradentown we the Manatee river and crossed the bay to St. Petersburg, ‘“The Tour- ists City of Florida.” St. Petersburg is located on a slight bluff overlook- ing Tampa Bay, and its sight is a beautiful one. Here hundreds of tourists come as pleasure seekers, to escape the wintry blasts of the north and to enjoy this semi-tropical cli- mate. i sailed up country during the winter months simply as tourists, with nothing to do but eat and sleep, would soon par- take of monotony and become ex- ceedingly tedious, but nature has made this a paradise for the pleas- ure seeker and affords unusual facil- ities for the fisherman, boater and hunter, so the tourist can find plenty of diversion. This variety, accom- panied by good living and unbound- ed hospitality of the Southerner, renders a stay in Florida both de- lightful and interesting. From St. Petersburg we crossed the bag again to Tampa, where we made a short stay. Tt is here that the tourist listens to the romantic story of Henry B. Plant, the man who undertook to do for the west coast of Florida what Henry M. Flagler has done for the east. He original Vanderbilt—the boats and railways. Then, after he had gathereq into his possession a dozen million or more, he began to dream of what wonders he might ac- complish with this immense fortune, and among other things decided to build for the tourist anq pleasure seeker such n palace or hotel as the built center of a vast garden, on banks of a small stream, he this $5,000,000 structure, , consumers are ent conditions at the ns of our light and wa- a purely Oriental conception, An im- mense building, embroidereq with ivy, and topped with white towers and minarets, Inside are rare tapes- tries, rugs, statues, paintings and antique cabinets. After the death of Henry B. Plant, the whole property passed into the possession of the city of Tampa. The exclusive garden i8 now a park, and both hotel and park stands as part of Tampa's attrac- tions for the sightseer. Above all elge, Tampa is a “‘City of Cigars."” It is the largest center for the manu- facture of cigars in the world. Ev- ery week day in the year a million Havana cigars are rolled into shape in Tampa's one hundreq and fifty factories anq sent out in their cedar boxes, bringing to their maker more than a million doliars a year. This industry gives work to nine thou- sand highly paiq experts. It is one of the unique sights of Florida to see a workroom in a Tampa factory where several hundreq Cubans sit, men and women, rolling cigars with incredible swiftness. 1 cannot dwell longer on the in- teresting things of Tampa, or even of our trip, for already I have con- sumeqd too much space ang too much of the reader’s time.
