Roosevelt the Man Whom
Democrats Must Beat.

The Republican convention which
convenes next Tuesday In Chicago is
expected to prove the stormiest Re
publican gathering which has assem-
bled In many years.
But somehow The Journal does not
believe anything very sensational is
likely to develop. The main contest
ants viii be Taft and Roosevelt ON
the first ballot they will, between
them, receive nearly all Of the votes.
There viii be some scattering votes
for La Toilette, Cummins. and per-
haps two or three others. II sec
ond ballot Is required to nominate,
these scattering votes will all be cast
for Taft and Roosevelt and one of
them will be nominated.
Indications now are that Roosevelt
will be nominated. II he does not re-
ceive a majority on the first ballot,
he will on the second. The La Fol-
lette, Cummins, and other Progressive
vote will go to the Rough Rider. 1t
cannot go to Taft.
Should Roosevelt not be nominated,
no one knows what he would do.
Should Taft be allowed to run alone
he would most certainly be defeated.
Should Roosevelt bolt and run inde-
pendent. no candidate either Demo
cratic or Republican. would be likely
to receive a majority in the electoral
college. In that event, the election
would be thrown into the house OF
representatives.
But we do not anticipate any three
cornered fight. Roosevelt will be the
nominee and he will be the man whom
the Democrats viii have to beat TIC
defeat him 1t will require the strongest
man whom the Democrats can nomi.
nate and that win be matter which
the BALTIMORE convention will have to
settle.
The situation at Chicago Is going to
be a simple one. The contest on
which will hinge the chances Of Dem
ocratic success must be fought out at
Baltimore.

A West Florida
Commercial Organization.

A short time ago. The Journal ad-
vocated a West Florida commercial
organization-some that would do
for the whole section what the PEN
sacola Commercial Association is doing
for Pensacola.
Commenting on this subject, the In
dustrial Index. trade paper pub
lished at Columbus. Ca. says:
This movement is most gratifying
70 those who would see increased de-
velopment In West Florida, one of the
most attractive sections of the south
east
West Florida is rich in undeveloped
resources--1nuch richer than people in
many parts Of the country are aware
The Index has long urged that the
most important thing to be done for
the upbuilding OF the southeast is to
acquaint people OF other sections with
the facts as TO what is offered and
what Is possible here for homeseekers
and investors. This done, the battle
Is won, for the advantages OF this sec
tion, once understood, will bring more
and moro people and money. That this
is true is being proven by what is
being accomplished along this line.
The formation of the suggested cr-
Ia more people aiding in the advertis-
ing of that section-which is a thing
TO be desired for any section that has
something to advertise, as has West
Florida.
What the Index says is true. A ter
ritcry that has something TO advertise
has everything. to gain by advertising
Il, and the way to advertise 1t is
through an organization such as we
have suggested.
Instead OF having population OF
100000. West Florida could easily sup
port population of 100000 and there
would still be land and resources left
10 develop.
This section of West Florida. in
climate, soil, resources, and general
possibilities. is the richest in the en-
tire south. The trouble is that few
people except ourselves-and not all
Of us-know II.

relative to the proposal to call a

Attorney Generals Opinion Sought.
State of Florida, Executive De-
partrnent. Tallahassee, June 6, 1912.
Honorable Park Trammell, Attorney
General. My Dear Sir: 1t has been
suggested to me that the board of
trade of the city of Jacksonville de-
sires to deposit with the state treas
urer sum Of money sufficient to de-
fray all the expenses of a special Sc
sion OF the state legislature which the
said board of trade desires the gov

acting certain legislation in the inter
est of the city of Jacksonville.
Please advise me whether, under
the law, the state treasurer would be
authorized to receive a deposit of
money as indicated above, to be used
for the purpose stated.

Attorney Generals Opinion.
To the above inquiry the governor
received the following reply from the
attorney general:
State of Florida. Office of the At
torney General, Tallahassee, June 10,
1912. Honorable Albert W. Gilchrist,
Governor, Tallahassee, Fla. Dear Sir:
Replying to your communication of
the 7th inst. wherein you state that
the board of trade OF Jacksonville de-
sires to deposit with the state treas
urer a sum of money sufficient to de-
fray all the expenses Of a special ses-
sion of the state legislature which the
said board of trade desires the COVER
nor to call for the purpose OF enacting
certain legislation in the interest of
the city OF Jacksonville and request
that 1 advise you whether or not, I'M
der the law, the state treasurer would
be authorized to receive such deposit
of money to be used for said purpose !;
l beg to advise that Section "a of Ar
ticle " of the State Constitution pro
vides the treasurer shall receive and
keep all funds, bonds and other securi-
ties in such manner as may be pre-
scribed by law
The treasurer has no inherent right
to receive deposit for the purpose Of

authority he may have, IL any, to re-
ceive such donations must be given
him by law. and upon an examination

BAY TRIP IN
HONOR PILOTS
AGAIN PUT OFF
UNITED STATES PILOT COMMITS.
sIoNER WILL NOT GRANT PER-
NIT FOR PILOT BOAT TO CARRY
PASSENGERS UNTIL NEW FORM
OF PERMIT is REQUESTED.

According TO a telegram received
yesterday by the committee in charge
OF arranging the bay trip to be given
In honor of the Pensacola pilots, ii
VIII be necessary to change the form
of the permit for which they asked
before the pilot boat Pilot can be used
for making the trip. 1t is thought
that this can be done in time to have
the trip on July 3, and the date has,
consequently, been changed from June
10 to that date.
The telegram was from the United
States pilot commissioner, to whom
application had been made for q per-
NIT for this trip, and was to the eff
feet that the Pilot was not certifcated
to carry passengers and the form of
permit requested would have TO be
changed. The telegram also referred
the committe to the proper officials
with whom TO take the matter up.
Since the sinking Of the Titanic and
the rigid investigation following some
rather drastic regulations have been
adopted relative to passenger boats.
while the rules already in existence
are being enforced much more rigidly
than ever before, which probably ac-
counts for the unexpected impeachment
encountered by the promoters Of the
trip.
The matter Of obtaining a different
form of permit has already been taken
up by telegraph by the committee on
arrangements and II is firmly believed
that the last permit asked for will be
granted and that the negotiations for
II can easily be concluded before the
3rd of July, which will put the trip
off only two weeks and will give the
committee more time in which to lay
plans for the proper entertainment OF
their guests.

such special session of the legislature
would, strictly speaking, not be held
by him as state treasurer, but merely
in personal capacity.
Respectfully submitted,
PARK TRAMMELL,
Attorney General
The governors position in the mat
ter of the special session of the legis-
lature is further defined in the fol-
lowing letter:
state of Florida, Executive De-
partment, Tallahassee, June 10, 1912.
Mr.. c. H. Ward, Secretary Miami
Board of Tade, Miami, Fla. Dear
Sir: Replying to your letter of June
10th, in which you state that this
board of trade at its regular meeting
held on June Srd passed resolution to
the effect:
This Board of Trade asks you as
governor to call special session of
the legislature for the purpose of pass
ing a general bill allowing cities to
acquire property for municipal docks,
etc, and that this be done at the ex-
pense of the state. as there are other
cities besides Jacksonville interested
in such legislature, and who would
like to see a general bill passed
Under Section s of Article Nv of
the constitution, referring TO a special
session. IL is provided, and the legts-
lature when organized shall transa CT
no legislative business other than that
for which ii is specifically convened,
or such other legislative business as
the governor may call to its attention
while in session, except by two thirds
vote of each house.
.swhen such a session is called it
may last as long as twenty days. If
such session were called as you sug-
gest, it would simply be opening the
flood gates of a twenty-day session.
There may be some good reasons WY
some such law should be enacted at
once for some particular cities. No
reason has ever been suggested for
the necessity for enactment or such
law for all cities prior TO the conVen-
vening of the next legislature
VERY truly yours,
ALBERT w. GILCHRIST,
''Governor."
