AN EYE on THE MAIN CHANCE.
There is no rush to follow Colonel
Roosevelt into third party. 4 handful
Of personal intimates who have nothing
at stake politically are ardently for a
bolt and with them are a group OF
men who control the Republican ma
chinery in their states and who hope
TO remain Republicans nOmlnally while
actually working for the so-called Pro-
gressive party. They figure that they
can bolt without losing their Republi-
canism. Such are the Films, the
Adriches, the Johnsons, the GlascockS'
who expect to run Roosevelt electors
under false pretences in their states ana
retain their present party name, while
perpetrating treason against 1t. The
ability to enlist the support of these
men Is not impressive evidence OF the
power Of the third party movement 70
command the adhesion of the people,
nor is their support, involving as 1t
does the plan to steal the Republican
party's place on the ballot wherever
the theft is possible, moral asset.
Most OF the coloneps supporters at
Chicago who are not placed like the
JohnsOns and the Films are either de-
clining TO go into new party or are
hesitating. In this state, for example,
only two or three Of the coloners dele
gates are known to be ready to follow
him out OF the party. His delegates
from Massachusetts were supposed to
be carefully picked and devoted Roose-
welt men; yet dispatches represent them
as unable to make up their minds TO
bolt, only a few Of them having as yet
determined to do so.
Calculation Is seen everywhere. and
calculation Is all against third party
movement, except in certain localities.
Even the governors who are staying
with the colonel are doing so az 2 result
Of careful calculation, for they think
that they can take that course without
releasing their hold upon the machinery
and patronage OF the Republican party
In their states. The soldiers FOR the
Armageddon are figuring on the pros
poets Of receiving their days pay. The
prospects look poor to good many OF
them

Everybody knows that Auburn

Until the railroad engine whistled
this way, Auburndalc and vicinity
was almost unknown to the outside
world a few vcnturesOme home
seekers in search of the promised
land. had headed this way and find
ing ideal conditions in this beautiful
lake region decided that this was
TIE place for which they had been
looking, and, after selecting a good
location, unpackcd their worldly
Goods, then sent word to Uncle Sam
that they had found the garden spot
of the earth and intended to remain

Mrs. Watkins from Virginia were the
pioneer homcscckcrs. The Watkins
land, now the property of the Flor

TWO.STORY STRUCTURE
Took Three.Mile Trip on Lake
Michigan.
tpOpular Mechanics

Lake Michigan has proved, in one
instance at least, an economical high
way for house moving. The owner
of house and lot at Fifty-fourth
street and Lake avenue, Chicago, and
. lot at Lake avenue and Seventy
seventh street, desired TO move the
louise to the latter, some three miles
distant, but found thai the moving
operation, on land, would cost much
more than the structure was worth
Then, convinced that he had a white
elephant on his hands, he confidcd
his troubles to a friend, who sarcas-
tically remarked that he had better
use il as a private yacht, and this
gave him the idea Of moving the
house by water. Subsequently, tho
house, which is a large two-story
structure, was moved over a pontoon
fridge, made Necessary by the shal-
lowness Of the water along the shorr
and rolled onto two scows, which
were towed three miles to the new
locatiOn. 1t took about three days
OF work TO get the house onto and OF
the scows, although the lake trip
was accomplished I'm a little less than
an hour The cost OF the operation
was less than s 600.

THIS PROJECT
Of IMPORTANCE
To LAKELAND
COUNTY OFFICIALS GET BUSY
WITH AUBURNDALE.LAKE.
LAND ROAD.

The good roads movement is max
ing itself felt in the Auburndale re-
gion in a very practicable manner.
Auburndale and surroundings have
suffered for long time through the
neglect OF the county officials but
these gentlemen have at last walked
up to the fact that the Auburndale
region is getting busy-and is en-
titled to attcntion--and this atton-
ton is now Forthcoming.
The first move in the right direc-
ton has been the systematic improve
mcnt of this end of the Auburndale-
Lakeland highway-this same road
which is to be part and parcel of the
Jacksonville to Tampa automobile
highway. Although this is and has
always been the principal road be-
tween this city and Lakeland it has
long been in disgraceful condition.
and our people have long petitioned
the county commissioners in vain.
Now the new order of things is up
on us. The road has been graded
and side ditched for nearly the en-
tire way from Auburndale to the w.
s Clarke and Josh" Griffin places
and the balance If the work will be
completed in short time
Pine needles cover a mile of the
new road and make the going good,
and it is propos. to straw the re.
mainder before winter comes.
The value of good roads has already
made itself manifest in two ways.
The settlers in the region west Of
the city can bring their products in
to market and do their shopping here
Eluch ca..icr than before, and the fer
tile, black, but rather low lands in
the Clark -Fussel-Criflin neighbor-
hood are being rapidly drained by the
bitches left when the graders finish
their work.
There are no finer lands for cane.
corn, potatoes, Strawberries and gen.
eral trucking in all Polk county. or
in all Florida. than those found in
Sections ), 6, and S--the ncighbor-
hood above referred tO-but the hea-
Wy, record breaking rains of the past
ten months have seriously handi-
capped the growers in those sections.
Now this one piece Of good road
has chang gcd the aspect of things. The
farms arc drained and dry, the crops
are looking fine, and the farmers are
already laying plans for next season
and a big cleanup.
Josh Griffin has sold his farm
to Mr.. Pearson ct $1,000 per acre,
but there is nothing else for sale in
the line of improved lands in that
ncighborhOod, according TO the farm
ers themselves and il is all due to
the new road
Lakeland is now facing the neces-
sity of doing its share If Lakeland
wants to get any OF the trade of this

Iand-Auburndalc road is repaired
