Our popular John Medley is being
highly complimented. BY many citizens
from all sections Of the State Of Florida
where he Is known, and that means
nearly the whOler State, and we believe
he could be easily elected Railroad
Commissioner, but his law practice Is
now 50 good, and growing so'fast, he
would have to make too large sacri.

enter the race for Railroad Commits

however, to note with what popular
favor the mention Of his probable can

goes to show the character Of this yet
young gentleman and the reputation
he made as the first secretary Of the
present commission. Mr.. Medley Is an
exceptionally good citizen, and counts !

GLOWING good account" Of Judge EN-
