DEEP WATER
MASS MEETING
At SANFORD
DAYTONA is INVITED TO send
DELEGATES THERE THURSDAY
NEXT STEP IN THE MOVEMENT
TO GET GOVERNMENT AID IN
CUTTING AWAY THE BAR AT
MOSQUITO INLET.

A general mass meeting of the
citizens of the counties of central
Florida has been called by the Com
mercial club of Sanford to meet in
that city next Thursday evening for
the purpose of forming a mid-state
organization to cooperate with New
Smyrna and Daytona in securing aid
from congress to be used in cutting
away the bar at Mosquito inlet,
thus furnishing deep water port
on the east central coast of Florida.
Invitations have been extended ito
all the citizens organizations in
the central counties of the state, as
well as members of both houses of
the coming legislature Hon. H.
Clay Stamford, president of the
state board of trade, has been in
vited along with the captains of in
dustry in every line of commercial
endeavor, who, with the editors OF
the various publications within the
effective area, will make up an in
teresting gathering.
/ 1t is generally conceded that this
meeting will be one of an epoch
making nature in the interest OF
central Florida as the making of 3
port Of entry at Mosquito inlet vii
WELD a beneficial influence over
i the commerce of this section OF
the state.
a survey of this Improvement was
made under the direction of the
war department in 1897 and the en-
gineer in charge reported fayorabt
on the project. Another survey o
the Improvement was made unds
the direction Of Captain Spaulding
and lie also made favorable re
port on the project and recommend
ed that this port be opened.
With these two reports on rec
ord as indications OF the practices
biuty of the projects, and the grea
benefits that will accrue to tn
| commerce Of this section of tn
state, together with giving a SAT
harbor to our shipping in times c
1 peace and inland rendezvous for on
ships of war, it seems that Ne'
4 Smyrna will have little or no trol
bic in securing this appropriation
4 1t is hoped that every locality will

4 Smyrna and Daytona will be re-
i resented at this meeting.

RURAL MAIL NAN HARD HIT
BY THE NEW PARCEL POST
ONE MAIL CARRIER IN GEORGIA
WRITES CONGRESSMAN ASK
ING FOR MULES AND FEED FOR
THE TEAM.
THE

The woes of the overburdened mail
carrier since the parcel post law
went into effect are faithfully de-
picted in letter received by Repre-
sentative Thomas W. Hardwick of
Georgia. Mr.. Hardwick is informed
by his constituent that congress has
placed the rural mail carrier in
"a devil of a fix" and that immedi-
ate relief is sought.
The letter. which Mr.. Hardwick
regards as a gem in its line. is from
F. T. Deason of Irwinton, Ga, and
reads. in part, as follows:

10 cents and a drink for every jug.
You fixed the law so I couldn t

PHONE MANAGER RESIGNS
J. w. Nelson Returns To Crookston
Where He Has Accepted 49,.
Position With Ford Co
SUCCESSOR NOT APPOINTED

1t was learned Thursday that j.
w. Nelson local manager of the
Northwestern Telephone company
had resigned his position here to ac-
cept a position as manager of the
Crookston branch of the Ford Auto
mobile company who opened a distri-
buting plant in Crookston.
Mr.. Nelson came to this city a
year ago last June and has been
with the telephone company for the
past five or six years. While in this
city he has won many friends among
the business and professional men
who will regret to learn of his de-
parture. He expects to take up his
new duties in Crookston about Sep
TENDER first. The offer made by the
Ford people will mean a decided in
crease in salary and gives a wider
field and better opportunity for
building up a business from which
Mr.. Nelson may derive a greater per-
sonal benefit.
Since coming to this city he has
increased the number of telephones
for his company by over two hundred
and has succeeded in securing the in
stallation of the new drop system
work on which is now under way.
Mr.. Nelson has many friends who
wish him success in his new field of
labors,
