The Truth says: FOR CITY COMMISSIONER WARD 1 “It is a well known fact that the Democratic party in Florida has been divided into factions, each faction fighting for issues entirely at vari- ance. For that reason we advocate the forming of two distince and sep- arate parties, letting each one place its issues squarely before the people. Politics, as now played in Florida is little less than a farce. A nomina- tion at the primaries is equal to an election. 1f we are to have only one party, why not do away entirely with the general election and qualify those who are nominated at the pri- maries?” Having been requested by a num- ber of citizens to announce as a can- didate for city commissioner, Ward 1, vice J. E. Bussard, resigned, I have consented to stand for the po- sition, and if elected will serve the people to the best of my abilty. Respecttully, W. S. IRVIN.
