The CominG Out Convention.

All plans for the candidates coming
out,' convention, which will be held in
Ocala, November 14th, have been per-
fected. and the committees in charge
predict that il will be the biggest affair
Of its kind in the history Of the State
The railroads have consented to max e
special rates and hundreds will attend
from all parts of Florida.
On the night of the coming out
convention the Ocala Board OF Trade
will give a banquet at the Oeala House,
to which the newspaper editors, hlgh
state officials, visiting candidates and
nany distinguished Floridians will be
invited, and it is looked forward to as
forming a pleasant ending to the day s
festivities.
IL is open to all comers, and all who
desire to be full-hedged candidates for
high office should be there. This is a
free country, every one who desires to
announce and run for Office has a right
to do so, and the more the merrler 1t
will be, if the candidates can raise the
price and cost, for it surely will cost
something to enter the race now, and
there is some warm times head for some
of the candidates.

We beg to call special attention to the
communication printed in this issue
from the Hon. William B. Lsmar, the
representative from Congress from the
Third Florida District. Mr.. Lamar Is
an ardent supporter of Florida's tobae-
co growing interests, and the tobacco
growers Of Florida can have no staunch'
en- friend of their interests both IN Con-
gress and out of it than they have IN
the Hon. William b. Lamar. 1t was III
their interests that be broke away from
the leader of his party in the House and
voted against the Philippine free trade
tariff bill. and it is in their interests
that he issues the appeal and invitation
which is published in this issue OF the
United States Tobacco Journal, and
which speaks for itself: The article

Raunlon or Veterans a PensaeOla.

After the splendid reception and en-
tertainment accorded the veterans by
Comrades of Ward Camp No. 10, the
Daughters of the Confederacy, the
Sons Of Veterans and by the citizens of
Pensacola generally, the representa-
tlves of Thompson b. Lamar Camp No.
I6I present at the reunion feel that
some expression Of appreciation is due
at their hands. The people OF Pensa-
cola are famous for their hospitality,
they are always wide awake and full of
it, but last week they outrPe Pensacolaed
Pensacola and kept everybody as wide
awake as themselves while their hospl,
tality overiowed so prpdigously that it
was physical inpOssibility to absorb
even a moity of the whole. Every fea-
ture of the programme was perfect in
itself and in the whole was entire har-
mony of arrangement there was not
slip or jostle from start to finish. AS
the scenes come back as cherished mem
cries, it would be an added pleasure If
the names of all who contributed to the
pleasure of the veterans could be writ
ten down here, but to undertake that
would mean to almost reproduce the
city directory, for every citizen did his
or her full share for our pleasure. 1t
will not, however, be an injustice for
us to name few to whom this delega-
ton is especially indebted. The first
on our list are Capt. Dick Reed and his
two sons, who were always at hand to
look after visitors and their comfort,
and to see that each had a good time.
Then came Gen. Witch, who came as
near being everywhere at once as any
man could, and always in the interest
of the visitors He was untiring in his
efforts, and of course successful IN
making all feel at home. Mr.. W. {.
Jones must not be overlooked, for he
was another of the ubiquitous kind. To
the pilots, individually and collectively,
we are under obligations for many cour-
tesies and attentions beside the use Of
their splendid boat for sail across the
bay. Captain Broadbent, keeper OF the
Life Saving Station, his wife and
daughters, must not be forgotten. To
each and every citizen of Pensacola we
are under many obligations, but those
mentioned have put us under many per-
sonal obligations, and such pleasing
ones that we shall eyer hold them in
precious remembrance.
The halls Of memory hold a broad
white stone inscribed Pensacola, the

TO GET SPECIAL
CAR TO REUNION
(From Mondays Dally)

Yesterday at the meeting OF the
W. p. Plemons camp OF United Con-
federate Veterans the members again
took up the question Of securing a
special car, to store from Amarillo,
of Veterans and their families from
Amarillo and surrounding towns, to
attend the reunion in Richmond.
The convention OF the Veterans be-
gins in Richmond on the last of May
and continues over several days into
June. Besides the regular entertain
ment OF the veterans which will be
carried out on an extensive scale,
tnere will be special celebrations at
the unwilling OF several monuments.
In addition to attending the conven-
ton, the members of the party can
take in trip to the jamestown
exposition, and perhaps side trips to
Washington and other points of In
terest.
No definite arrangements can be
made here yet because the roads have
not made definite propositions in re-
gard to rates and accommodations.
Already a number OF Veterans have
signifIed their intention Of attending
the gathering and there should be no
difficulty In securing the necessary
number BY getting special car
clear through from here the trip
would he made much easier and
pleasanter for every member of the
party.

MAKES IMPROVEMENTS
immigration Agent Clark Tells Of ImpOT-
iRt Progress Being Made BY Rock
island Lines.
(From Mondays DaiIy.y.


II believe that this east and west
line will be some time one OF the
most important OF the big east and
west trunk hines" said T. J. Clark,
southwestern immigration agent for
the Rock Island system, during Wis
1t at the Daily Panhandle office last
week. The sale OF the Cabra
Springs ranch lands had attracted
Mr.. Clark's attention and he called
at the office to get a copy OF the
paper giving an account Of the sale.
This Choctaw extension west"
continued Mr. Clark, "will, ! htink,
be completed beyond doubt. At pres
ent, however, the state OF the money
market and OF the market in the COM
modities which II takes to build
railroads are not favorable for the
construction. The Rock Island is
working all the men they can possi-
bly, get in improving the lines in va
rlous places and Of course they can't
take men from that work to put them
to building new road. The line from
Amarillo east is being rebuilt and Is
being put into fine condition. All
along the line in Oklahoma, we are
making extensive improvements.
This east and west line is bound
to become great line because 1t
passes through country that Is won
derfully rich all the way. 1t has the
connections east and west that will
give II Importance, and with the trib-
utary country It is developing, Its
business is going to keep on growing
fast. n
81 do not know anything definite
about the depot plans for Amarillo
or course improvements, and i'm
portant ones will be made, but the
road would wish to get all arrange
ments with the other roads settled
before beginning the extensive depot
improvements here. The building OF
the line west would have bearing
on the situation too"

AT the close of his talk Panhandle
Dick shed his coat, spit on his hands,
grasped the sledge and struck six
or eight blows, at least two of which
landed on the spike at which they
were directed.
The tie, which contained the Off
cial spike and which had suffered
somewhat from the intermittent at
lacks OF oratory and muscle, was
then left to perform It's service and
after j. H, Taylor, the engineer,
drove the official grade stake, the
