Announces His Candidacy For the
office Of Governor of Florida.

PnArxA, FLA, October 20, 1908.
TO THE
DEMOCRATIC WORMS OF FLORIDA:
I have heretofore announced my
candidacy for the Governorsbip Of
Florida aud in three or four address
e. delivered in the Slate have Civ
en- my attitude on the several pub
lie questions which seem to be up
permost in the minds of the people.
The time seems now. to have arrived
when may, with propriety, adopt
ibis method of placing my candida
cy more formally befue you.
want TO say that ] do not look
lightly upon the responsibility i am
assuming in even becoming a candi-
date, TO say nothing OF the serious
responsibility would assume should
become Governor. No thought
fol man can contemplate this under
taking without grave apprehensions.
Nor do ] discount the worth and
ability Of the distinguished Flori.
dams who have already entered the
same field and who are asplrants for
lhe same Office. They are gentle.
men of high character and uaques-
aonable patriotism. As could say
nothing truthfulIy against them in
private life ! shall not, for the sake
Of obtaining office, undertake, by
innuendo or otherwise, to cast as
PENSIONS upon them or either of them
ID public life. IL is not important
or necessary to the people of Florida
that should be- Governor. but it is
important TO them, and il is essen
tal TO the future prosperity OF the
State, that political schisms, bicker-
iugs and contentious should lie avoid
Cd. shall contribute as little TO-
ward that kind of politics as / may
be permitted to do.
My career has been comparatively
humble and uneyentful. 1t is all
iunmed up in the following brief
extract which / take from the Con-
gressional Directory;
Robert w. Davis, Democrat, of
Palatka, was born in Lee County,
Ca, March 10, ls49, and is the son
Of Rev. Jesse M. Davis, a distin-
guished Baptist minister; was rduca-
led in the common schools of his ma
tive State; entered the Confederate
service at IA years Of age, and SUI
rendered with the army of Gen.
Joseph e. Johnston AT the close Of
The war; worked on a farm for sew
eral years after the war; read law,
and was admitted TO the bar at 20
years OF age: removed to Florida in

l0'oi was electe0 10 The Legislature
from Clay County Of the latter STATE
in 1854; was elected speaker OF the
House Of Representatives at the sOs-
sion of 1885; was bslloted for for
Governor of Florida in the State
convention held in St. Augustine in
1888, and, though he had a large
following, failed to receive the nom.
nation; was made general attorney
for the Florida Southern Railroad
Company in 1885, which position he
resigned when elected to Congress;
was elected to the Fifty-6fth, Fit
ty-sixth, and Fifty-seventh Con-
gress and reelected to the Fifty
eighth Congress without opposition.
MY POLITICAL PRINCIPLES.
have been, during all my man
hood days, Democrat, standing al.
ways on my party's platforms and
Obeying its edicts. l was q dele
gate TO the Chicago Convention Of
1896, and was the Florida member
Of the committee on platform and
resolutions, voting with the majority
of that committee. During the MEM
orable campaign which followed and
during the campaign Of 1900 did
all l could, in my humble way, to
advance the principles enunciated
by the councils Of my party and con-
tended for by VIM. j. Bryan. 1
am now serving my fourth term in
the Congress of the United States,
and since became q member of the
House of Representatives i have vo-
ted, in one form or another, on
every important principle for which
we fought. / am willing to be
judged by my record there. j do
not pretend to have voted right al
ways. In the haste and confusion
Of a legislative body men often err,
but upon all questions of principle
for which my party battled tried
to be consistent. / beIive no charge
to the contrary has been lodged
against me. The Record is sccessi-
Bile to all and / appeal with conf.
dence to that.
SERVE NO MASTER.
As / have served no master since
l have been in Congress- save only
The will of the people, l shall serve
no other should / become Governor.
STATE MATTERS.
am connected with no corpora
ton either directly or indirectly nor
do own stock in any nor am ] con-
trolled by any. But do not indis-
criminately denounce them or rail
against them. AS there are good
men and bad so there are good and
bad corporations. They are the
creatures Of law They could not
exist il we ourselves, by and through
our legislatures, did not create them
and give them life. They exist by

rily inimical to the, public veal.
Nor is man a public enemy be-
cause he belongs to or is employed
by a railroad company or a steam
snip line or a hank. Many Of our
best and most honored citizens are
30 employed, while thousands of our
young men, sons OF farmers and ar
tisans and merchants alike, are en-
tering these fields Of human endea-
vOr. Corporations, however, being
creatures of law should be controlled
by law and when they undertake to
go beyond their charter powers or
to ignore the public good they should
be checked.
To this end / believe we should
maintain a Railroad Commission
vested with ample power and officer.
ed by men of wisdom and patriotism.
am opposed to Trusts and have
10 voted in Congress.
/ believe the primary system for
nominating party candidates is the
best and only true method for arriv-
ing at the real and untrammeled will
of the people. We should maintain
and perfect our primary plan,
1 trust my public life has been
such as to make it unnecessary for
me to assure my friends that / favor
progress; good government; good
schools and colleges; the fostering
care by the State Of the old soldiers
Of the South; good roads; peace;
temperance and good order. For
the maintenance and upbuilding of
all Of them l shall work to the best
Of my ability, whether | am elected
Governor of Florida or whether /
