Don Morris Repudiates the Interview
Credited to Him.

.S0me Of Alderman j. Don G. Nor
ris' friends are bound TO get him into
political trouble, for since his phe-
nomtnal success in the city election
his name has been mentioned for sew
eral public offices OF great import
ance. The latest and most up-tO.date
suggestion comes from the Daytona
Gazrtte-N,ws. which says:
"Iu spite of the fact that the Sena.
torial plum for The lower East Coast
should go to Brevard county in the
coming election, many citizens of
Dade county, so we are reliably in
formed, are insisting upon the name
of Alderman j. Don G.. MOrl IL of West
Palm Beach being placed before the
primary for that Office"
Alderman Morris was interviewed
this morning while at rehearsal If

thoriaes "A strong denial that he has
serious intentions of causing our good
friend, Wade II. Jones, of Brevard the
loss of wink of sleep.
The above, from the West Palm
Beach Sun, is, according to Hon. L.
Moreton Murray, repudiatcd by MIR.
Morris, who denies that he authorize d
any such statement, and who will
probably be candidate before the
primary next summer.

PARKINSON FOR JUDGE.
"DeLandite" Places in Nomination a
Popular DaytOna Attorney.

EDITOR News A contributor to the
Daytona Gazette-News asks why Day
tona is not represented among the
prominent county officials, and sug-
gests the name of Charles l.. Smith
as candidate for the Office of tax
collector to succeed D. P. Smith. l
believe that Chas. L. would find it a
rather difficult problem to beat the
present official in a popular primary.
There is one DaytOna man, however,
who could have fat county Office
simply for the asking. l mean Prof.
John B. Parkinson, who has been
mentioned time and again for the
criminal judgship. This is an Office
that pays $1,000 year, and takes not
to exceed six days a month on an
average.
If MIR. Parkinson can get the sup
port of DaytOna for this Office, he
may count on majority of the votes
in DeLand, and many from the other
sections of the interior.
Parkinson is a clean, moral man
a man who has the respect of all who
know him-and, believe, would make
competent, impartial, digni6ed
judge.
Here's to Judge Parkinson.
