Go to Washington as FEOrida's first
Congressman from the State-at-Iarge
from Miami Meropols)
The Metropolis Does Not Endorse Toomer.

Some one has been sending over the state,
newspaper clipping credited to the Metropolis,
endorsing the candidacy of Col William M.
Toomer, who has entered the race for congress
from the state-at-large.
The article first appeared in the Jacksonville
Metropolis and this paper republished it the fol-
lowing day as matter of news and credited it to
the Jacksonville paper.
The Miami Metropolis not only does not en-
dorse Mr.. Toonrer as candidate but considers
that his election would be disastrous thing for
the people of Florida
His platform is boldly republican and his
backing is found among powerful money interests
by whom, it is hoped, he may be carried into this
important office.
For too long have the people of Florida been
asked to send the servants of plutocracy to Wash
ington. The time has arrived for a radical
change, and together, with a large majority of
the real Democrats of this State, the Metropolis
wants to Claude l. Engie, with his fearless
tongue, his answering loyalty to the common
people, his aggressive attitude toward despotism
and crooked dealing in public life go to Washing
ton as Florida's first congressman from the
state-at-large.

the best interests of Florida

that it is disgraceful to cast a vote
fer a friend or relative when there is
another candidate in the race better
qualified to represent the district
This, he says, the people are beginning
to realize, but he says the people have
not been given a fair opportunity to
judge what the candidates stand for
He said he made a proposition to Mr.
Mays and Mr.. Wilson that they joint
ly secure an automobile and canvas
the district together, speak before the
same people and let them decide which
man was best qualified to represent
the district. Mr.. Wilson agreed to the
plan, he said. but Mr.. Mays would

Not Asking For Votes.
Colonel Flournoy said he would not
insult the people by asking them to
vote for him, that he was only striving
to say something TO stimulate a patri-
otto interest in the people that they
might cast their ballot intelligently,
honestly and not with a desire to pay
a debt of friendship or because the
candidate is related to the voter.
He declared his contempt for the
man who steals a part of Eugene
Debs's platform to use as a vote
catcher to slip into Office under the
mask of Democracy. He said r wa s

can or anything else, out he saIu It
was not right to mix them with
Democracy.
T. Albert Jennings, who was in the
audience, Colonel F'lournoy character
lied as a statesman and not a peanut
politician. He sal. Mr.. Jennings
would bear him out in the statement
that the average Legislator was not
concerned about the interests of his
country, but wanted to do something
that would make the people send him
back to Tallahassee to smoke cigars
and play seven-up.
Monticello, Colonef F1ournoy says,
he has visited and found the people
willing to hear him, and some promis-
ing support, and he emphasized the
fact that he had not given away
cigars. whiskey nor one penny in the
campaign, but had stated his record
and principles upon the stump and in
the press and it was the voters pa

lished a record and had put out a
platform which was not full of vote
catchers.
Colonel Flournoy considers the Con-
st:tution of the United States the
greatest document ever written by
man and throughout his talk he con-
tinued to refer to 1t, claiming that
everything in his platform is in ac-
cordance with the preamble of the
constitution and that things like the
parcels post, the initiative and refer
endum and governmental ownership
o. telegraphs are contrary to it.
The speaker said he had read the
rise and fall of the Roman empire and
had made a study of the failure and
success of mans attempts to govern,
and he said that any candidate who
had failed to do this were not capable
of representing the district in the fed
eral congress. He said he was not a
sectional candidate and would make
thorough study of the districts needs
If he was honored by the people and
would use every power he possessed
for the betterment of the district, the
state and the whole country.
He condemned paternalism and said

speaker and has a way of holding mis-
audience, even when discussing at
length governmental questions. There
was a large number out to hear him
and he had a brass band to play be-
fcre the speaking.
In beginning his remarks he said
he would not discuss the candidates

ents would enable him TO make a bet

SMALL CHILD
STRAYS AWAY
V4REE-YEAR-oLD SON OF FRED
WEAVER Is LOCATED SEVERAL
BLOCKS FROM HOME, AFTER
POLICE STATION HAD BEEN
NOTIFIED TO LOOK OUT FOR
HIM.

Having wandered from his home at
60G East Jackson street to the store
OF ]. Ed. Williams, corner of DeVilliers
and Jackson streets, the three-year old
son Of Fred Weaver was located at
the latter place last night about 8
o'clock. after the police had been no
titled to look out for him.
1t seems that the child wandered
away from home yesterday afternoon
about 2 o'clock and walked str light
west on Jackson street until he came
to the store of Mr.. Williams, where
someone in the store noticed him and
stopped the child. Being too young to
give any explanation OF himself. the
police were notified and few minutes
later the parents of the child called
up the station. The child was carried
to the home Of one OF the clerks in
MI. Williams's store, $40 West Jackson
street. and a little later his parents
called there for him and he was re-
turned to his home.
