Hudson-Fulton cele' as far as
New York City ii 8 Eerned, wound
up tonight with . keenest disap.
pointment of tx elk, arising from
the fact that insteSd of series OF
thrilling aeroplane flights by Wilbur
Wright and Glenn Curtiss there was
but one flight worthy of name, that
made by Wright around the Statue of
Liberty on Wednesday.
A big part of the thousands OF Wis
itors were attracted by the prospect
of seeing the "man-birds" in action.
but comparatively few of them wit
messed Wright's fight.
Wright evidently realizes that the
people have been disappointed for he
announced today that he would re-
main here until the conditions are
right to fly his aeroplane. He no
titled the government officials at
Washington that he would not return
to Washington. wednesday as he had
promised.

JORDAN EAVORS A
STATE CONVENTION
SAYS THERE Is NO DEMOCRATIC
PARTv IN FLORIDA.
Convention Should BE Called TO Pre-.
scribe Platform Of Principles for
Candidates In Future.

Several Of the leading newspapers
OF the State. notably The Tampa Trib-
une. The Lake City Index and The
Brooksville Argus, are urging the ne
cessity of holding n State Democratic
convention to formulate and enunciate
a platform Of principles for the guild
ance and observance q the candi-
dates in next years primaries.
These newspapers ale right. Al
present there Is no DEN cratic plat.
form. and. therefore. no l., l4J~ratiC
party in Florida. Every candidate for
Office makes a platform for himself
and runs on IL. with the result that
some men who are charged with not
being Democratic are elected to jim
portant offices.
II was stated. with the appearance
OF truth, that the late Legislature con.
tanned as members several Populisis
and at least one Prohibitionist who
were nominated in the Democratic
primaries OF last yEar. Had there
been a platform upon which all were
required 10 run-that H.. declaration
Of principles which all candidate
were required 10 accept and endorse
before being permitted to run In the
primaries. it is quite possible that
some gentlemen who were members
OF the late legislature. as well a
others who were elected to various
county offices. would not have been
candidates In the primaries.
Under present conditions. when
members OF the Legislature are chos-
en-. each one of them has ideas and
plans of his own. and the result l.
that practically no harmony. no unani-
nifty OF purpose exists in the Legis-
iltUre. and il follows that import
ant legislation is neglected and many
Objectionable laws are enacted. For
he truth OF this statement we have
only to recall what was done and what
was not done by the last legislature
To remedy these evils IL Is absolute.
" essential that State Democratic
convention be- called TO frame a plat
form Of principles for the govern
ment of candidates and the guidance
u voters in next years primaries
The Herald. therefore. cordially sup.
ports the demands Of those news.

months. The friends OF Miss Linton
cOntended that the penalty was In
adequate. and when Mitchelrs friends
applied for a pardon. the young girls
friends rallied to oppose IL. The
prison commission heard the case for
two ea~g. MitchelTs friends argued
that II he committed the crime Re
was crazy. because he was wealth
hau social position. influence and n
charming family. They also brought
certificates from physicians that the
convict would endanger his life by
serving on the chain gang. Some az
the most influential and prominent
men In the State appeared on hiS
behalf. His attorneys argued that
the opponents OF & pardon merely
wanted to see a rich and prominent
man suffer
The decision Of the pardon commits

ROOSEVELT" CITIZENS
NOW WANT TO CHANGE
NAME OF TOWN TO TAFT

MADISON, Wis, March 17.-Teddy Bear
and Billy 'Possum are at war in Taylor
county and at present Billy has Teddy on
fhis back and squealing for mercy. The
trouble is all because about two-thirds OF
the town of Roosevelt have withdrawn
their allegiance from the ex-president and
want to divide the town and call part OF
IL Taft.
They presented q bill in the Wisconsin
legislature asking for permission to dc
this, and won a victory when the lower
house passed the measure. The followers
of the Teddy Bear are now pinning their
faith to the senate. and promise to con-
tinue the fight there.
Taylor county began it's custom of nam
ing towns for presidents in 1890 At that
time, 1t named one Grover and another
Cleveland. Four years later, when the
Democrats were ousted from the white
house, Taylor county created a new town
and named II Mckinley. Four years ago
II created another new town and named 1t
Roosevelt. It Ii this last town that the
Taft settlers insist on having divided.
