AS the leading Volusia county
newspaper, THE News feels itself
called upon to inform the members
of the approaching legislature that
the people of our county are very
much interested in the candidacy
of James E. Alexander for the
honorable position Of SPEAKER of
the House of Representatives. AS
a rule, THE News feels that it is
not necessary for a local newspaper
to NEEDLE in such matters and as
a rule, keeps out of them; but the
people Of Volusia county are SO
united in this demand that THE
News would be untrue to the conf
dence reposed in it by the people if
it did not express their sentiments,
and urge the selection of Mr..
Alexander for this position. !. E.
Alexander goes to Tallahassee with
out any entangling alliances. He
is a man with a clean political
record, He has no enemies to
punish, every man who knows him
is his friend-therefore he has many
friends to reward-all the people
He is in every way qualified to fill
the position with honor to himself
and to the State, He is not the
tool Of any fraction or clique, and
if elected. will to the best of his
ability perform the duties in
fair and impartial manner. 1t has
been many years since Volusia
county has had the honor of elect
ing one of her citizens to a State
office, but we have always been

This newspaper early set its face
against scctionalsin in the nation
and in the state When other
newspapers were tceming with
articles about the unhealthfulncss
of Ocala and it's death rate, its reply
was that Ocala was located on a
commanding emincncc; that it en-
loved the same breezes and sun
shine as other Florida towns; had
no local causes to breed sickness
and death, and if its nearby rivals
continued to talk that way about it
the intended tourist and investor
would come to the conclusion that
Qcala was not exceptional, and the
whole state must be similarly al
iicted.

AMENDING THE
STATE CONSTITUTION

Evidently forgetlul Of the fac
that constitution building is slow
and serious business the DeLand
News thus Eliminates,
Some ofour patriots are very
anxious for Florida to have a
new State constitution and
favor the holding of a cOnstitu-
tional convention for the pur-
pose of adopting 4 new bill Of
rights. Could we gather to-
gether better, or more intclIi-
gent set Of men for this purpose
than the members OF the com
ing legislature: Why not let
them codify new constitution
and propose it to the people, to
he voted on at the next general
election: Let the people
role"
Bur think of all the legislature
will have to attend to during its
brief session. There will be con-
sidered questions of real import
ance which must receive a little
consideration while many, many
days will be taken up in wrangling
over comparatively unessentiol
inatters-matters deriving their
prominence more from acrinoni-
Gus political opinions than from
their relation to the well-being of
the commonwealth. How, then,
could the legislature be expected to
draw up even an imperfect set OF
basic laws for the government of
the State:
The constitution of Florida, at
no time a perfect instrument and
now so out-of date in some of its
provisions as to be a hindrance to
the performance of many import
ant public functions, most as
suredly requires rennodeling But
this should be undertaken by a
convention of citizens chosen es-
pecially because of their fitness for
such a work, and no haste should |
be exercised in it's performance |,
By all means let the constitution be
revised, but let it be revised Alright
No botch work is anted.-PenSa-
cola Journal
THE News is fully aware OF all
this--but after the proposed con-
stitution is adopted by the Legis-
lature, it would have to be submit
ted to the people-and the people !
are fully capable of deciding such
matters. If the Legislature of
1000 has not sufficient time to de-
vote to such matters. after passing |
the usual number of quail, and fish,
and other bills, let the Legislature
appoint committee, or COM
mission, to draft a constitution and
submit it to the Legislature of 1911.
There is no reason at all for taking
this matter out of the hands of the
people. Let the people rule.
THE PEOPLE WILL RULE.
