| tired of shouting for candidates who
were lined up with either Of the exist

that they are ready TO espouse and sup
port some man known TO be clean and
able but without factional entangle-
ments. Who that man Is TO be we con-
fess we do not know, but we are hope
full that he will be brought forth before
the campaign becomes very old. Madi-
son New Enterprise.

Floridians have done much for him, and
II he has retired from politics he has
just taken unto himself an excellent
young wife, and he owes much to his
people. Bloxham can bring all the diff
ferences together and make things har-
monious and lovely, and Bloxham should
be our next Governor.
