Former Governor Gilchrist has
abandoned all concealment on the
subject and announces that he, too,
wants that seat up in Washington
at present held down by Senator
Fletcher. We look forward with
unmixed pleasure to the next sena-
torial campaign in this State, for
it's going to be hummer. But we
trust that all offensive personalities
and Governor Gilchrist's poetry will
be rigidly excluded from the con-
troversy.

A SENSIBLE REMINDER
FROM FRANK L. MAYES


Pensacola Journal, who has been
mentioned several times more than
any othe- MN as a candidate for
governor, replies to these many COM
plimcntagy references and offers OF
support in such sensible, practical,
pointed way that we give his reply
in full as taken from the Journal Of
Sunday. Mr.. Mayes pertinently re-
calls the fact which seems to have
escaped most Of us, that 1t will be
nearly three years before the pri-
maries to nominate candidate for
governor This being true, it seems
hardly less than absurd that the
matter should be persistently, earn
estly and deliberately discussed as
though the selection of such a candi-
date was an issue right up to the
people of Florida to be determined
and we didn't have any time to spare
in doin" so.
Mr.. Mayes' letter will strengthen
the general opinions that he Is ex-
cellent timber for governor, but he
is entirely right to decline making
any definite announcement on the
subject in view Of the three years
crowded with changing and un-
known conditions and history that
hasn't happened between now and
the date cf the nomination. His
Journal article is as follows:
"No man could be inscnsible to
the very great compliment contained
In the serious suggestion of his name
for hiah Office, and the editor of the
Journal is rot lacking in apprecia
ton of tho altocethcr too generous
comment which the State press has
made concerning him. On the other
hana, no man, unless he be indie
pendcntly rich or exceedingly over
ambitions could nearly three three
years ahead give definite assurance
that he would be candidate for so
important an office. The guberna-
torial primary will not be held for
almost three years. Governor Tram
mclPs successor will not enter office
for more than three years. Condi-
lions change rapidly. The man who
might be REGARDED as logical candi-
date today might. either by his own
acts and expressions or by changing
circumstances. be entirely eliminated
from consideration in much less than
three years.
Florida has hundreds Of men, any
one Of whom would make a good
governor. The discussion of these
men and CT the policies involved in
the selection Of governor is proper
and pertinent at all times. II fact,
such discussion Is extremely desir-
able and the columns of the Jour
nal are at all times open to it. But
80 many elements and conditions are
involved In a campaign for governor
that we imagine no individual in
the State could this far ahead def
nitely announce that he would make
the CAMPAIGN.
1.-THE editor OF the Journal has no
over-wccning ambition to hold Of
flee. lie realizes his own limita-
lions as probably no one else real
ICES them. He may never be a can
didate for public office. At the same
time he does not care to give bond
that he will not at some time be
candidate. In the meantime the
State press should continue its dis
cussion of all available men and
when the time to make the campaign
arrives there is no doubt that some
man will be located who will be &C.
.ceptable to the great masses of peo-
pie Of the State. But there is plenty
OF time to find him."
