We have our feet we'll on the treadle,

people Of Florida.

Wenote Alabama Governor attended
Press Association meeting and com
mended his newspaper editors for the
good they do. Floridas Governor says
in his State they are unprincipled, that
they "sell space for 80 much an inch,
with sentiment thrown in" It's all
owing to the raising, however. See.

Floridians generally regret that Hon,
W. K Zowadski, Of Ocala, ard his ex-
cellent family have moved to Spring
field, Illinois, to reside Mr. Zewadski
has been one Of Florida's best and most
useful citizens and jealous Christian

GAINESVILLE Sun: 1.-THE crop of Cub
ernatorial candidates grows as grass
during a rainy season. Those now men
toned are: Cromwell Gibbons, W. j.
Bryan, jacksonville jennings, of Pen
sacola; Horace c. Gordan, Tampa; j.
w. Watson, Mama, and f. s. Grill Of
Palatka. The latter has not announc-
ed his intention Of entering the race,
but sentiment Is crystalizing in his fav4
or all over the State. He In recognized
preeminently as the man best fitted for
the Goyernorship under present condl-
tons.
SO II would seem the True Democrat
has even converted L'Engle's' Sun to

large bodies Of land" Read the quota
ton from the Jacksonville Tallahassee
Sun: 1--WE believe that the trustees
should not sell any more large bodies of

Why should they favor any one In sell

when they sell him the land he wants
without previous notice to the public
In order that II any one else wishes TO
possess that land he may bid for IT."
And Il all goes 70 prove the True Dem
ocrat is getting IN some good work In
the interest Of FlOrldlans The last
