Thomas Robinson has invested
every cent he has made in this
town. He has always been fore
mostin promoting beneficial enter
prises. When visitors of note have
come here he has spent his own
money and collected more from
others to entertain and interest
them. When the American So
ciety of Mining Engineers came to
Florence last year to inspect our
ore reduction works, after holding
a convention in Denver, who en-
tertained them and showed them
around the town? Did the mayor
take the initiative? Not much.
Mayor Lewis might never have
known about it, but for the enter
prise of "Old Man Robinson" as
his assailants call him. This "Old
Man Robinson,' mere private
citizen, did what the mayor OF any
well governed town would be ex-
pected to do. He got samples of
Florence fruit and refreshed the
distinguished visitors with them
while he pointed out the details of
Florence's Industries, took the
.,-tJ
facts and figures as to the reduc-
ton works then building and so
on. That's the sort of man VIC
need for mayor. Vote for him and
prove that the town can appreciate
public spirit coupled with tact and
ability.
The Florence daily tribune., 1898-03-30

just now ''town records seem to
be the stock III trade with the op-
position. Suppose we make a
comparative statement showing
Just how much Mr.. Robinson re.
ceived either directly or indirectly
for his services as mayor, and the
same for the present incumbent
Then, maybe, what s.old Mac y
old Robinson and all that gang

sition have ever done for the town.
might be put in another statement.
1t would surely make interesting
reading for the fair minded peo-
pie of Florence. But there is lit
tie use to waste time on these mat
ters. The good common sense of
the: citizens of Florence has
never failed them when once thew
are aroused to the true condi-
tions. When any party has to
work on the sly--to get down in
the gutter and begin to throw mud
at others, its cause is lost.

Joseph Hessick has lived in this
town since he was little boy. He
has seen it grow from a village to
a city. But he is still quite young
man and the spirit of progress that
has carried Florence along has
made its impress upon him. be
is full of vigor, he understands the
needs of the present town and his
training has made him fully cap
able of taking an active part in
supplying them. Like all the men
on the Peoples ticket he has real
estate and other property here.
He cannot move away and transfer
his interest elsewhere at weeks
notice. And in serving the best
interests of the town he is at the
same time promoting his individ-
ual interest as taxpayer.
The Florence daily tribune., 1898-03-30

In elections that we have here
tofore observed in Florence, the
judges have very fairly represented
the various parties concerned. But

Developments in connection
with the charges made against
Messrs. Enricht and Hirsch by the
Canon City men interested in the
construction of an electric railway
from that town to Cripple Greek,
seem to point to the probability of
Florence deriving unexpected ben
efits therefrom. The attention of
some influential and wealthy men
is likely to be turned to Florence
