Brother Hare, of the DeSoto
News, states a truth which every
voter should keep constantly in
mind. He says; 1--WE do not ex-
pect to get political paragons of
excellence and pinks of perfection
in candidates--unless we nominate
certain editors" Very true. No
man is perfect, not even your
favorite candidate Even Gill
christ may have his faults, but let
us all vote for him, because he is
honest, belongs to no ring or fac
ton, has "no friends to reward
nor enemies to punish,N is not
seeking Office for power or pelf,
and, if elected governor, can be
depended upon to devote the best
energies of his mind and heart to
the welfare of Florida and not to
the building up Of faction by a
cunning distribution of the public
offices.

The editors of the Jacksonville
Metropolis and the Ocala Banner
boast that they have been engag-
ed in newspaper work for about
fifty years each and never suffered
from over-work, from constant
and close application to their du-
ties, and have never been troubled
by nervous prostitution. 1t must
be that they are blessed with the
phlegmatic and not the nervous
temperament, for it is men of the
latter temperament whose nerves
are worn out by the constant men
tai strain.

AS a testimonial of their appre-
citation of his services, the people

of Ye Ancient City.

The very factthat General Gill
christ has the moral courage to
stand up in the face Of powerful
sentiment for State prohibition
and declare himself for local OPP
ton as it now exists, should con
vince any one of his honesty, his
absolute freedom from hypocrisy
and his determination to do what
he conscientiously believes to be
right, regardless of popular
clamor and Of the temptation to
deceive in order to win.

He recently made some injurious
reflections upon Hon. d. IL. Mays
and, on being shown that they

the Florida editors are the same
kind of men; ready and prompt to
repair any injustice they may
inhict.

Here is something to cheer the

many votes by his visit to South

A Georgia commercial tourist
who had visited every county in

Why Vote for Gilchrist2

CullnOJ w uuVotiVhOu' AAN - ""H
est in that he conceals nothing,
that he evades no question in
which the people are Interested,
and he practices no deceit or hy-
pocrisy to gain his ends.
He has no friends to reward, no
enemies to punish, no faction
shouting for him with II view to
getting the public Offices which he
may have to bestow He became
a candidate through no suggestion
Of self-seeking friends nor of any
clique, combination, faction or
corporation. He is running alone,
without reference to any other
candidate and without any group
of cunning politicians or schemers
combined to aid him with a view
to demanding favors of him as
governor
He has promised no reward, not
even to the writer hereof, for any
support that may be given him.
He is absolutely free from all OBJ
legations of a political nature, in
the sense that such obligations
may claim his official recognition
as governor. OF course, he APP
preciates support, but no man who
knows him will for a moment be-
lieve that he will pay for such
support with either money or
public Office,
His only motive in wishing
to be governor is to give the State
such nm administration rs will be
to its advantage, as will really
benefit the people and will 90
down in history to his glory as one
Of the best, if not the best, that
the State has ever had. That is
his sole ambition, to do the State
and the people great service that
will carry his name with honor to
future generations, Ii is a noble
ambition; but, to realize it, he will
not do anything that is not true
and honorable.
For no honor, however great,
will he sacrifice his sense Of truth
and right, his manliness or his in
dependence. This is shown by his
persistent refusal to resort to any
deceit to get votes, to conceal his
views and convictions, to proclaim
policies which he does not APP
prove simply because they may
contribute to his triumph.
Herein is his honesty shown,
and it teaches that he can be re-
lied on to do what he promises and
to use the best efforts of his heart
and mind for the advancement of
all the interests of Florida without
regard to class or faction.
He is man of such moral cour-
age, such firm conviction for
the right, such repugnance to hy-
pocrisy, that even his best friend
cannot swerve him from what he
thinks is right. When this writer
pointed out to General Gilchrist
a paragraph in speech which
he proposed to deliver and advised
that il be left out, as it was UNI
necessary and might cost him
some votes,
"No, SIR" said Gilchrist; II am
not hypocrite and / won't be one,
if | never get to be governor.
The advice involved no hypoc.
risy, but the mere idea that it did
caused his instant rejection of it.
Those who know him best will
unhesitatingly vote for him, for
they know that the interests of
the people will be safe in his
hands. They do not hesitate to
pledge their fellow citizens who
do not know General Gilchrist,
that, if he is chosen governor, he
will give the State clean, honest,
The Punta Gorda herald. [volume] (Punta Gorda, Fla.) 1893-1958, 1908-05-07

1t is conceded that General Gil
Shrist will carry Orange county
