Pensacola people used often to be
asked: why is Pensacola so small
in size and SO far behind any other
city in regard to improvements? ?"
To answer this question one must
look at our city map Take the sew
eral blocks that are between Gov
erhment street and Main and between
PaIafox and AIcaniz streets, repre-
scented by the letters of the alphabet
from A to /. This plan of laying out
city blocks was a Spanish custom and
az the time these were laid Pensacola
was a Spanish trading post.
Thi1 was about the year 1868.
Florida continued a Spanish coun-
try until about the year 1888 at which
time the English came into posse =
sion and laid out the lots that are now
represented by size S0X170 which wa :
the English plan and between Govern
Fuent and Garden streets. At the

reached yesterday. and his reasons
for so doing are set forth as follows:
TO the People of Pensacola;
In announcing my candidacy for
mayor of Pensacola, L ventured TO
hope that l would not have to partici-
pate in a scramble for the ONCE. 1

circumstances l cannot consent to re-
main in the race. My friends have
