sTocKToN's CANDIDACY,

The Jacksonville Metropolis has the
following to say of Hon, John y, {.
Stockton's candidacy for Governor:
THE announcement made in yes.
terday's issue of The Metropolis OF
John \. c. Stockton's candidacy for
Governor was not a surprise tn those
familiar with the call for him To enter
the contest. Some leading State pa.
pers heretofore politically opposed To
friendly press in urging him to make
the race. and that his consent means
distinctive figure in the campaign
and a decided factor in the race can.
not be questioned.
Whatever may be said OF John
Stockton's political principles, he has
been the leader OF the faction and al
ways consistent and in Jacksonville
he is especially known as Il clean
progressive citizen and an upright
honest man. I'm fierce political bat.
ties he has been aggressive. often.
times TO the sensational point
but his kindly heart and forgiving M.
ture soon brings him out in friendly
touch with his opponents.
Mr. Stockton is distinctive and
prominent figure in the political and
business affairs of the city of Jack.
sonville and the state Of Florida. and
is the recognized leader of strong
faction in the State. lie is admitted
by both his political friends and enc.
mics, to be the strongest man that
has thus far announced for the GOV.

THE "GENERAL WELFARE,

The one clause of the Federal CON.
stitution which President Roosevelt
takes seriously and which as be con.
strues it makes all other clauses su.
pernous and nugatory is the gen.
eral welfare clause lie regards
himself AS the sole Judge of the gen
eral welfare. His policies" are all
directed To the general welfare. He
knows nothing and he cares for
nothing, but the general welfare
Constitutional limitations upon his
power or upon the power of Congress
must be regarded as strait Jackets, and
shattered accordingly. For Ia him
the general welfare means Roosevelt :
political welfare. the increase of his
power, the destruction of local self.
government, and the concentration Of
all political power in his own hands.
This HamiltOnian Interpretation OF tho
constitution is nothing new in Rcpuh-
lcan policies. It Is merely iutpusi-
fed under the present administration.
