PROTECTING THE DEAR PEOPLE

Broward is the only governor Flor
ida ever had that accepted fee of 81
600 acres of land during his term of
office and Haunted the fact in the face
of the voters afterwards with no other
excuse than that he did ii in good
faith and if ii was wrong he was SOr-
ry for it. That land is valued at from
$4,000 to $4,000. putting ii at the
very lowest estimate, and is a part of
the land that he promised in his cam
paign speeches to save the people of
Florida. Does anyone believe that the
wealthy syndicate purchasing this land
gave Broward that much for doing his
duty to the people of Florida? Nit.

city being present.

In a logical and convincing manner,
Mr.. Marshall stated the object of the
meeting and pointed out the benefits
that will accrue a result of closer
association of the hotel men of the
city. He said that he hoped that the
would ultimately result in
the foundation of a state association.
He thought much good would result
from the movement.

LEngle is now being used by both

both feet feet, especially regarding the
land deals which LEngle used as OBJ

and his friends are not keeping quiet
a bit about the record of the Senator

moment about a race that is still two

Two new candidates for Governor have

Florida. The booms were launched at
the camp of in truction held by of
ficers detailed by the War Department
and for the officers of the National
Guard of Florida. The camp was held
in this city and has just come to a
close.
1t has been aptly remarked that
when Florida politics gets a little dull
somebody proposes Maj. Gibbons for
Governor. And now this has reached
the point where Maj. Gibbons, who
is one of the states leading citizens, is
beginning to listen a little. And while
all of the officers We're here studying
map reading and taking long hikes in

the gathering, was called upon for a
speech. He is a good speaker. but the
word hadn't been passed 10 him that
the host was beginning 10 listen to the

Whether with the expenditure of a
reasonable sum of money and the
installation of a filtration plant the
present water plant can be brought up
to such a degree of efficiency that 1t
can supply the. needs of the city, or
whether 1t will be necessary, and al
so cheaper in the long run to install
a gravity system, was the question
which puzzled the members OF the
water board at its meeting last night
and an adjournment was~taken with
out any definite actien being on the
subject. se
1t was the first meeting of the
board since its appointment by the
council, and the labors which lay
before it were discussed in detail.
The present condition OF the water
plant. purchased by the city from the
Salem Water Company, was thor
eughly discussed, and there seemed to
be some doubt in the minds of the
members-at least some of them--as
to the advisability of spending any
further money in the way OF repairs
and improvements upon It, with the
view of making 1t the eity's perma-
nent water source. It was pointed out
that 1t would require much money to
bring it up to a condition whore it
would be able to supply the water
wants of the city, and that the install
lation of a filtration plant would
mean another large expenditure, and
II was doubted whether such a course
would be expediont. On the other
hand, the installation of gravity
system has its serious side. II would
mean the issuance OF bonds for a
large sum of money. and would mean
another election ON the subject. would

While the members had their indi-
vidual views as TO the best policy to
be pursued. they were not certain OF
thedr correctness, and, as It Is the de-
sire OF them all TO be sure OF their
ground before taking any steps on
so important a question. the advisa-
bility OF securing the services Of an
engineer and obtaining his judgment
as TO the best policy to pursue was
discussed. But on this question as
on all others discussed at the meet
ing. no definite action was taken.
Another meeting will be held in the
near future. and action OF some kind !.
