Hearst can poll more votes In the

didate. there win be nobody but Mr.
Hearst in the convention.
It was an astonishing race Mr..
Hearst made last year. II he shall
do as well this year he will be gov
eynor. In 1874 Samuel J. Tilden was
elected governor Of New. York; two
years later, if we can believe the
faithful, he was elected President OF
the United States. In 1882 Grover
Cleveland was elected governor OF
New York; two years later he was
elected President of the United

History sometimes repeats. If Will

Make Specific Charges or
Let Governor Broward Alone.

The Jacksonville FlOridian seems
TO be sore about something and, II
we may judge from its rather in
definite accusations, its tender spot
has recently been irritated by some
thing which Governor Broward has
either done or failed to DO, though
no specific sin Of commission or
omission is mentioned.
dn a rambling editorial the -F7ori-
dian refers to Governor Bpoward as
the most fagrant antithesis" Of the
man whom IT believed him to be
when it helped elect him governor,
and it characterizes his term of
once as "an administration as de-
serving Of censure as the blackest in
the days Of radicalism ana recon
struotiOn."
These are rather serious charges
and If there is any ground for them
they should be accompanied by some
specific citations OF misconduct on
the part Of the governor. This idea
OF general condemnation no longer
has any influence with intelligent
people. The people are not supposed
70 know what the FlOridian is driv-
ing a., even if the latter does know,
and If the governors administration
has been so deserving Of oensure, I"
the Floridian should have the man
hoO6 and the honestly to come out
and say when and where and in what
respect this diabolical malfeasance
has been committed.
The Journal is not posing as the
special champion Of Governor Brow
ard, because we do not think he
really needs one. But, in The Jour
nails opinion, this indiscriminate
libel on common decency should
stop. There are certain members of
the state press who never see any
thing good in Governor Broward's S
administration and who seem to be
unable to say anything too bad about
tt II they have any ground for do
sng 50. they should furnish the sepci-
fcations. II they have motif they
cannot furnish the specific grounds on
which these general charges are
made-then they should stop this dis
Eusting exhibition Of malice and gen
eral ilwil.
The journal believes that the
Fgoridian wants to be fair and it
hopes that its Jacksonville contem-
porary will see the error Of its recent
ulRdEised utterances.

Th- Drainage Question,


Considerable feeling and opposition
has oeen stirred up against Governor
Broward's proposition to drain por-
ton of the Everglades, and several
Of the state press have given vent to
more or less spleen.
We did not support the candidacy
Of Governor BroWard, and at the time
had little, if any, faith in his drain
ing proposition, but our proposition
was honest and sincere and not per-
sonal either, ana we are glad to say
that we have found that our little
views were erroneous. We learn
that where the work of reclamation
by drainage has been perfected by
the Diston Land Co., and others, the
results have been all that was ex-
pected, or could have been desired.
Splendid crops Of vegetable and fruit
products are the result-with those
reclaimed lands worth $35 to $50 per
acre.
Now then. let the governor go
ahead and redeem his promise to the
people, which he is anxious to do.
We believe he is on the right track
and so move all obstructiohs and let
him go ahead, we say.-WestVille
