hibited at our convention show him
in the act of evasion as to well
known facts, and no amount of that
art which draws meanings from
words ''like a cheveril glove" could
rescue him from the position.
If the victory won in Putnam by
those who acted for Drew was
factional one, how can they reap the
fruits without ruin to the party they
profess to love? fit was the triumph
of personal feelings over political
sense, how poor the position for
democrats to take If Gov. Drew
has determined to rule or ruin the
party, let him go to the independ-
ents, for in claiming that a candi-
date can refuse to support the action
of a convention before which he
himself appears, he abjures all party
loyalty: if he expects to dictate
terms to the party, he oyer-rates
himself, and if he thinks his own
position can be strengthened by
abuse Of other democrats he will be
simply left to "hold the fort" alone.
But perhaps Judge Hilton is right
in thinking that the poor old man
is incapable of writing, speaking or
understanding his mother tongue.
On this account we can excuse his
quibbling kilograms, but believe
more firmly that he is unfit to be
governor of Florida, and will be
enabled more readily to compassion
ate his friends. To the party the
whole affair is unfortunate, but the
display of spite is ludicrous in the
extreme. At least we have no feal
that the Pensacola convention will
fail to deal wisely with the subject
and to our delegates the matter re
fers itself.

We are glad to have the Pensa-
colian endorse our explanation of
the Disston land sale. AS our con-
temporary asserts, this transaction
alone would give ample evidence of
Bloxham's business capacity. We
all know that the governor might
have carried the war into Africa in
his controversy with Drew. Maj.
Abrams has allowed zeal for his
friend to outrun his discretion; Gov.
Bloxham denied Drew's charges and
contented himself with so much on,
ly out of regard to the party. Dem
ocrats will know how to thank him.
