been in Tallahassee for the past few days
looking after the repairs to his seatorial
fences, returned home yesterday. Mr..
Burford is one of the few brilliant ora

announced his candidacy, 1t was thought
Mr.. Burford stood a most excellent chance
to win the prize, and It is extremely I'M
fortunate that Marion county should have
two aspirants for this exalted position. The
vote given Mr.. Burford at Tallahassee is
a fiattering one under the circumstances,
inasmueh as he had made no canvas. MIR.
Burford is an A4abamian by birth, and
with his residence In Florida now about
twelve years, has done much for the cause
OF democracy. He was twice chosen as
presidential elector both times making an
active canvas Of the entire state, during
which time he made many warm friends
by his eloquent and earnest appeals for
democratic supremacy.

Gov. Bloxham has made two important
appointments, as follows: R. C. Dittman
of Fort Pierce, trustee to select and locate
Seminole Indian lands. William B. Knott
of Volusia county, special agent to ex-
anime the books of Clay county officials
For several years it has been the custom
in Florida for county democratic COM
mittees to recommend persons to the gov
ernor for appointment as county commits
sioners. This plan has met with approval
at several state conventions of the party.
The Recommendation have recently been
sent up from the various counties and
the governor is being appealed to by petit
tons and individuals to ignore the rec
concentrations and appoint other men.
Gov. Bloxham is an organized democrat,
and those who know him best are conf
dent that he will not deviate from party
usage in this matter
