ALBERT w. GILCHRIST.
for Governor Of Florida.

No faction, machine or ring brought
him out He came out as a candi-
date alone and single-handed He will
be glad 10 receive the support Of the
corporations, OF the anti-corporations,
the prohibitionists and the anti-prohi-
bitionists, OF the local optionists, the
Christians and the Jews, and OF the
Genties, the "Publicans and sinners"
He would even accept the support Of
the Pharisees.
The corporations cannot do without
the people, and the people cannot do
without the corporations. Neither
should be allowed to oppres the 9TH
err. Capital is organized, labor should
organize
The license tax law licensing each
little enterprise should be amended
in order that taxation should bear
more evenly.

ments lie is not on the recently
constructed band wagon"
He commenced life working in
Quincy, Florida, at a salary of SIS
per month, and boarded himself. He
has himself been a hard working,
struggling man, and he knows what
it means in others. He has never
married; he has always had obliga-
tons. His life has been spent more
in thoughtful consideration of other
people than of himself, He feels
sure he will be elected, III he gets
enough votes" He does not propose
to trade off a single Office There is
honor in being governor II il Is
tainted with dishonor he does not
want the office

THE POWER OF REMOVAL.

The report. which We are glad to see promptly
Eenied. that the Mayor would remove General
Bingham in response TO political pressure from
Brooklyn, and similar rumors which circu-
lated from time TO time. may possibly set the
Cha rter Revision Commission TO inquirfng
whether 1t is desirable TO coptinue the present
absolutely unrestricted power OF removal pos
Eessed by the chief executive of this city. The
Police Department is in which some degree

iiticai forces such General Bingham has an
iag0nized IN his recent department reforms in
Brooklyn. Yet the Police Commissioner Is la
BILE under the law 10 he removed from office at
sny moment without charges and without
plsnadon.
II cannot he said that the Mayor has abused
this power in the removals that he has made,
except perhaps IN one case where he discharged
an excellent official for purely personal reasons,

ton was given, fuller public understa nding of
the reasons woud hsve promoted the cause of
