The Orlando Reporter-Star says this to the point: ‘“The Ocala Ban- ner refers to the speech of Mrs. Hocker, president of the ;F‘edernlon, delivered before that body at Lake- land, as masterful. Mrs. Hocker is a brilliant woman, and has made an able executive officer.” PIHFEAIE S Nt The growth of @Girls’ Canning Clubs, Boys’ Corn Clubs and fine, successful county fairs all over Florida are among the most signifi- cant signg of the times in this State. They point unerringly to rapid and healthy development along those very' lines where development is most needed. Florida is in fine shape and getting better all the time. The right spirit is animating our people, and the determination to do things and give no aid or coun- tenance to laggards, dronmes and knockers is everywhere apparent. = —_— Colonel W. P. Walton, former editor of the Orlando Reporter-Star, who went back to his native Ken- tucky after a brief season of Flor- ida journalism, is now a full-fledged e ———————— P ——— et e eeeeee—————————————————————————— The tourist propulsive power to- vard Florida will be one of the in- teresting phenomena of the preseat very cold weather prevailing through the North and West. P e T R The esteemed Live Oak Democrat, referring to the recent anniversary of the Telegram, says: “The Tele- gram is one of our most valued ex- changes and is Lakeland’'s greatest assett.’ S T, Wauchula may not succeed in putting any of its knockers in jail because of its now famous anti- knocking ordinance passed by the city council, but it is getting plenty of good advertising out of it and it ought to have the effect of spotting the knockers and making them No careful reader of the newspa- rers can fail to have been impressed with the fact that Senator Fletcher of thig State ig always seeking to do something useful for the people of Florida outside of his purely sen- atorial functions. His activities are indefatigible and he is one among the really national figures in the Senate because of his constant ef- forts to help in the development of his State and the entire South. The Tampa Times calls him “a big man on the job” and very truly says of him: “Fletcher is always doing some- thing for Florida, at Wiashington, and doing it well. One of his lat- est undertakingg is to interest Sec- cetary of Agriculture Houston in securing from Congress an appro- priation with which to aid the State and the citrus fruit growers in stamping out the latest and most virulent menace attacking our cit- rus fruit groves, the canker. Mr. Fletcher has the assurance of the candidate for secretary of State in |S€cretary of agriculture that he will that commonwealth. The Colonel is a mighty plain spoken man, as some of his contemporaries in Flor- ida discovered, and if he takes the stump in his own behalt during his campaign and has opposition, audience iy likely to hear some hot stuff. —_ The sessions of the Federation have ended and the ladies have all gone to their respective homes, each of them genuinely charmed with Lakeland, in love with its cordial, whole-hearted hospitality, and ready forevermore to speak the praises of the beautiful city where the Florida Federation of Woman’s Clubs held its largest and most successful meeting. And Lakeland thoroughly enjoyed the work of entertaining these fine progres:ive women of our State. It is a clear case of mutual love and admiration. —_— Governor Trammell knows that the people of Florida are exception- ally blessed in these times and have a great dea]l to be thankful for, and he has accordingly issued his pro- clamation setting forth next Thurs- day, Nov. 26, as a day of general thanksgiving and recommends its universal observance by the people of Florida. The man who can’t feel thankful when he compares our condition with that of the people of Europe and thinks of the bread- lines in the big cities of this coun- try, deserves to have a touch of ad- versity himself to make him more appreciative and grateful for the good things of life. —_— The Jasper Banner very wisely says, speaking of the relations of thig country to Mexico: “Of course the plea for our inter- ference is that our citizens have in- terests there. Very well, but, when a man turns his back on his native land, goes to a foreign coun- try and invests his money there he ceases to be a citizen of this coun- try, except in name. When trouble arises he can leave the country or stay and tough it out as he may prefer. At any rate the citizens of the United States should not be taxed, nor their sons slaughtered be- cause a few adventurers have ‘in- terests’ in Mexico. Let Mexico alone.” Of course, that is the right policy, and happily for this country there is a man of backbone as well as brains at the head of it, and he has enforced that policy despite the clamorous demands of an amazingly large number of nincompoops who howled for war. American inter- ference simply postpones the regen- eration and evolution of Mexico, and they never will get a stable government down there until they work out their own salvation in their own way. Tt is chiefly from meddlesome Boston, which doesn't under any circumstances propose to do any of the fighting, but will have A keen eye for the war contracts and other forms of profit, that the call comes for gratuitous interfer- ence with the affairs of another na- tion. 'hlp bill when he introduces it in the 1 his t}e entire country by his activity. 1He hag been appointed do all in his power to insure such an appropriation and Mr. Fletcher will have the best possible backing for Senate. Fletcher of Florida has kept his name before the people of to many ‘posts of responsibility, among them to the chairmanship of the commis- sion sent abroad last year to study rural credits. He is shaping up a bill to be introduced in the Senate at the coming session which he hopes to have passed and which is designed to enable the struggling, worthy farmer to get money at a to carry on his operations.” [ — SECOND BIBLE CONFERENCE —_— Washington, Nov. 21.—A second Bible conference, similar to that held last February, will be conducted here next week, itg opening session being held tomorrow. English preachers will not be able to take the prominent part in this confer- ence that they did in that of the spring, but many of the best known expositors of the Book in this coun- try have given up their work for a short time and will fill their places. Among the noted clergymen who will visit Washington.on this occa- sion is Rev. Frank Wi. Gunsaulus, D. D., the head of the Armour Ip- stitute in Chicago, who is said to expect at the Auditorium the great- est Protestant audience in the coun- try.
