An employing printer makes the
statement that lat Il conservative
estimate, n. b. Broward's printing
bill in this campaign has not been
less than $12,OOO." This bill consists
of 10000 copies of his autobiography
and II like number of maps and other
circular letters, to all of which must
be added the cost Of envelopes and
wrappers, clerk hire, postage, etc,
to say nothing of his personal eX-
pense in travelling about the state to
make his campaign appointments,
and all of which would swell his
total expense to at least SIS, 600, or
81, GOO more than the total four years
salary of Governor. Evidently the
Job" of being Governor has some
thing in it beside honor that Napo-
leon Broward hopes to rake out.
But 1.-The fool and his money is soon

NV Dear Sir:-I am glad to see
from the papers that the people Of

many friends during the time he ser

ator Call, of your State.
Mr. Alexander has the knack o
making friends wherever he goes,
not only with those with whom hc
comes in contact, but, as well, with
those with whom he comes in con-
fiict, for he is a square, fair fighter,
and | venture to predict that if he Is
elected to Congress he will, before
his first term expires, have become
one of the most popular and inilucn-
tiaI Representatives in the House.
He will make II useful member, and
! am sure will reflect credit on his

Send Jim along, and the pcopl" OF
your district will never have cause tC
regret it. With best wishes | remain
