candidate, was up from Jacksonville a
few days ago and received a cordial
welcome. He is getting his lineup
formed and will also go in to win.
Hudson Burr has returned from
Washington, where he and Royal C.
Dunn, as railorad commissioners, went
to attend the express rate hearing. He
thinks the Interstate commerce COM
mission is going to give the Florida
growers a favorable decision. but it
will be some time before the ruling is
rendered. In the meantime Mr.. Burr
is keeping a weather eye open, and it
is said that he will make his anounce-
ment pretty soon. He has had a
yearning for the governorship for sew
eral years. and he thinks this is the
time to win.
Park Tramme1l is improving each
shining hour" and as the boys are
wont to say, lis politicking' right now.
Trammell's famous good looks will
help him much, and if McKenzie's suf-
fragette measure should pass IN time
to be effective before the next cleo
ton, he would be the next governor.
Not much is heard or seen of Mr..
Milton in these parts. He probably
doesn't think it good policy to stay
much about Tallahassee just because
the legislature is in session. His
friends have said that he is running
before the people and not before the
legislature" and he has either taken
his cue from them, or they took their
cue from him on this point and he
hasn't been very numerous here.
In any event the race is going to be
a long one and of great interest
HATHAWAY A CANDIDATE.
It Is rumored here that Frank
Hathaway, superintendent Of public in
struction of Duval county, will be in
the race for state superintendent. And
also that Ceph Wilson, of Mariana,
will run for congress against Dannitte
Mays and Charles B. ParkhilL There
are some who do not think that Park
hill will run against Mays or that
Mays will run against Parkhill, being
brothers-in- law, but the case Of the
Taylor brothers in Tennessee is re-
called, and the Stockton brothers in
Jacksonville. Stranger things have
happened.

ruled the motion made by Represen-

Mr.. Doughtery arose and stated that
