Woman's Limitations.

From The Lady Pictorial.
Both in Paris and in Berlin women
have failed as drivers of public vehicles.
1t Will be remembered that at the time
this work was taken up considerable op-
position was shown to the adoption by
women of calling which had hitherto
been followed by men only. 1t is better
to let them try. When once woman
does recognize her limitations it is much
more likely that the two sexes will not
war so much with each other.

THE EDITORS NEXT

May 9Th and 9th the editors Of the
State Of Florida will meet in annual
convention at st. Petersburg. Yester-
day when the news was first made
known through the Times Union it
brought as much joy to our people as
If the President of the United States
or the battleship fleet had wired that
they would be here.
Everybody you met had plans for
the entertainment of the brainy men
OF the state who are doing more than
all other powers in upbuilding Flor
ida.
Big-hearted Gus Sims first thought
was: al am going to write immedi-
ately to Dan ellis and have him as
my guest" And others suggested that
we entertain the newspaper men at
our various homes.
This is told to show the newspaper
men that they will meet with well
come here that will make them feel
within a moment after they arrive that
they have lived here all their lives.
st. Petersburg feels honored that
the editors will be our guests and the
next forty days will be spent in plan
ming good thing for, them during thei
visit.-St. Petersburg Independent.
The above is just like Editor Powell
and the good people Of st. Petersburg.
They know what publicity of the right
kind is. They also know .fhe kind of
men that do that act to. perfection,
the editors, and with this view of
them. nothing shall be too good for
them. Every editor of Florida should
be there. If you have seen st. Pc
tersburg in the past renew acquain-
lance with it again, 1t will do you
good. The town has grown some since
you were there last. Her improve
ments are Of an order that invites in
spection. If you have never been
there. CO. for should fate decree this
is the last opportunity, you will re-
greet the fact as long as memory holds
sway. Let, us pray for easy walking
and a full procession of pencil push
ers.

eiTTiNeER LOSES TWO VOTES

Mr.. John T. Lewis tells good one
at the expense Of the editor of the

He said he ran across several voters
the other day in this county, who had
intended voting for the editor but OH
looking up the record found that two
Years ago he ran for representative.
but now he comes out and is making
the race for the legislature. Bittinger
changes his politics, but we never do
and SO We are agin him. Some one
demonstrated with the parties, saying
that representative and legislature
are one and the same thing, but they
stoutly commended it meant two distinct
Offices, and the argument grew so
heated that money was put up and
Lewis put the stakes in his pocket
and he said it looked now like he
could not turn the money over until
he got a decision from the supreme
court.

Mr.. John T. Lewis, state convict in
spector, passed through Ocala yester-
day on his way home from Jackson
vile to Moss Bluff. He said he had
been touring various parts Of the state
for the past week and his opinion on
the gubernatorial race was to the eff
feet that John N. c. Stockton would
he the winner. He said he did not
think the big cities would give him q
large vote. but was confident the out
lying districts would give him ninety
per cent Of their votes. Governor
Browards chances for senator were
very fine; that he really believed the
governor would sweep the field. Ac-
cording to this version Of the political
horizon there will be only one pri-
mary for the offices spoken Of.
