Senator Fletcher has no apology
to offer for favoring Underwood for
the Democratic nomination for pres
ident. No apology is required from
any Democrat for having favored
such a magnificent man and Demo-
crat as Oscar w. Underwood This
paper supported Wilson from the
first, but it never printed line I'M
favorable to Underwood Senator
Fletcher, like the host of other good
Democrats who favored Underwood,
proved his Democracy by working
for Wilson after his nomination, and
at all times since Wilson's election
and inauguration the president and
the Florida Senator have been in per-
feet accord. What splendid record
in public life Senator Fletcher has
made when such puerile charges as
this are all that can be brought
against him,

To prove what can be acmom-
plished by advertising, it is unnec-
essary to cite such examples as that
of C. W. Post, who started in bust
ness ten years ago with $1,000 cap
ital and by adhering to the rule of
spending % per cent of his net
earnings in advertising amassed mil
lions, and made the phrase, There's
a Reason" household word
throughout the country. We say it
is not necessary to point to such eX-
amples, for in every community
there are concrete evidences of what
intelligent advertising will do
Right here in Lakeland people have
seen new life infused into some run
down business by a new proprietor
or manager who went after business
through the newspaper publicity,
who made a success, and who de-
clares that success due to newspaper
advertising. There has also been
seen in this town instances where q
profitable business was being con-
Quoted, and owing to some change
of management or policy, the adyer-
Using was curtailed or discontinued,
and the effect on the business was
Immediately apparent. Yet in the
face of these things there are people
in business in Lakeland who do no
advertising or do so little and in
such a half-hearted and sporadic
way as to make it ineffective. Some
of these business men complain that
this paper carries advertising Of
Tampa firms. They admit that an
advertisement in the Telegram
brings trade to firms thirty-two
miles away, but can't see that the
same advertising would influence the
people who are passing by their
doors every day. Consistency in that
tdea-what?

THE ROSE

Nowhere does the rose grow and
produce such magnificent blooms ss
in Florida. In the morning, when
sparkling with dew, they seem 10
doubly beautiful, and at noontiie
the bright, satiny petals flash back
the rays of the midday sun. The
rose thriyes in almost any garden
there is no secret about growing
them. The most important point i
in the selection of the plants and
the varieties. Open air roses can be
had for Christmas, as we'll as for me

The golden fruit, with it's back
ground of dark glossy green foliage,
shows to the best advantage. The
, coloring of the foliage is OF itself a
thing OF beauty, SO rich and fresh
looking, as though each leaf had just
been washed. And to the northerner
its a great privilege to get out into
one of these groves and pull the or
ange from the tree, as we do apples
in our country, The flavor OF the
fruit as we get it here ripe from the
tree, is sweet and delicious. In fact,
the grapefruit tastes altogether like
a different fruit from that which is
shipped to us up north. Certainly,
the Florida grapefruit is the finest
produced in the land.
Notwithstanding the fact that
Florida was discovered about four
hundred years ago, perhaps no other
State in the Union has been as little
known as this State for anything
outside of her popularity as winter
resort. Within the past few years,
however, a change has taken place,
people have come 10 proper appre-
citation of Florida as place of resi-
dence and investment, capital and
labor are forming combination
which is to develop the resources of
this country, and big things are now
being done all through the State.
She is improving IN every line of
human endeavor, and is rapidly TAX
ing position in the front rank of
the sisterhood of States, and attract
ing the attention of the world, turn
ing capital and immigration to her
shores, where they find not a boom,
but an awakening to her own posi-
bilities. In every Florida town one
goes into, are to be met bodies of
residents VINO are optlmlsts, ana
even fanatics, on the subject of the
advantages of their own neighbour
hood, and each one of these towns
seem to have share of the tourists
and homeseekers that come to Flor
ida.
For those who love the water, in
all its colors and aspects, there GER
tainly can be no place like Florida.
1t is the paradise of the house boat,
sail boat, and launch, because of its
innumerable waterways, ocean in
lets, bays, rivers and lakes, which
are a part of Florida's heritage.

CHIHUAHUA HOLDS INTEREST
(By Edward H. Hamilton)

(By Edward H. Hamilton.)
 Fl Paso, Texas, April 27.-Ears and interest in the city and along this border are directed toward Chihuahua tonight.
 General Villa left early this morn ing for Carranza's capital to see Car ranza and his leaders as to what at titude they would assume toward the United States.
 At once the brains and tongues of the border men, the refugees and the Juarez MeXicans, became busy.
 "Villa will take him by the head and have him in jail tomorrow boasted partisa of Villa.
 Don't you think SOP" queried another.
 ''If Villa tries any rough work with Carranza he will not live minute.
 From Chihuahua came a rumor that Caraaza was ready to supplant Villa as the chief of the arn.a with Monclava Herrera, another bandit with cheerful disregard for life and property, and, who, like Villa, is credited with having enriched himself by loot, but no word comes from Chihuahua except through strict censor-So one rumor is quite as good as another.

they cannot be permitted to come ashore until more refugees are out of the city because of the serious short age of flood.
 Sir Lionel Garden, the British ann bassador, has issued notice to all British subjects in Mexico City adyis- ing them to leave the capital.
 Five Americans who had been i'm prisoned at Cordova have been re- leased and arrived here today on a train bearing other refugees. Among them are Dr. Hoskins, United States army surgeon.
 They spent five days in jail before they were released by the order o1 Huerta.
 The heroes of the day ill Vera Cruz are the men of the Second naval regiment under captain E. A. Ander- son. They took the brunt of the fighting in the capture of the city and received the severest punishmeni from Mexican "snipers." Their losses ia killed and wounded form half of the total losses sustained by the American force to date.
 Consul Canada has heard from General Maas, who says that Amer ican refugees at interior points will be allowed to come to Vera Cruz If proper formalities are observed.

cided to proceed with mediation there was a sharp difference of opinlo l over the manner in. which It was being done. Those who opposed Secretary Bryan's idea objected to the United States being tha one 10 1nltl- ate the movement. They held that il was an unnecessary surrender. Their opinion was to have come friendly power suggest to IIuerta secretly that mediation was the proper course for him to pursue, and thereby give him the opportunity. if he resired, to take advantage of ii to make the frs move.
 The full extent of the plan of oper- ations prepared by the war college and backed up by the heads of the war and navy department became known today for the first time.
 They propose to strike hard and quickly, believing that thebest way tc settle the question was to do it de cisively and without delay. So far a' they were concerned it was war witt Huerta. Their plan was tosead he army against Mexico City and cap ture it, and then do exactly what tn United States is doing in Vera Cruz place it under material law, restore order. place the courts and other machinery of the city government h full operation, and look after the comfort and welfare of the people In their opinion mediation could ther follow with much better chances thar at present exist for acceptance of the proposals of this government by all the factions concerned.
 As far as the military and maya operations have gone. they have fol lowed the plans laid down bv the wa college The remainder of the plar will be carried out if it is desired tf proceed against Huerta.
 The complete scheme is to send ar army of 75,000 men, made up O regulars and militia, into Mexico a the earlist moment.

LOCAL MAN TO
 FILL BIG OFFICE  M. l.. Bell Becomes Head of Rock Islands Legal De-
 partment.

M. L. Bell, a native and until about eight years ago resident of Pine Bluff, will become general solicitor of the Rock Island railroad system on May 1 with all the powers now held by F. c. Dillon, vice president and general counsel, who has resigned. The position Mir. Dillon now holds has been abilshed, and all persons heretofore report to the vice presi- dent and general counsel, are ordered to report after May 1 to General Counsel Bell, whose salary is report ed to be $15,00O year.
 The promotion of Mir. Bell to be the head of the Rock Islands legal de- partment marks the ascension of an other rung on the ladder of success by a man whose rise has been re- markable. especially when it is con sidered that Mir. Bell is only 34 years of age. Educated in the public schools of Pine Bluff and completing his studies at the University of Ar kansas, whence he graduated as a bachelor of laws, MT. Bell left Pine Bluff about eight years ago, went to Chicago and there secured position as stenographer ill the general offices of the Rock Island.
 He was promoted from one position to another until he was made the general attorney for the Rock Island, with headquarters at Chicago. The resignation of Mir. Dillon as the head of the department was quickly follow ed by the announcement of Mir. Bells appointment to the office. It is said that Mir. Bell is the youngest man in the United States holding such posi- tion, and if this is accurate it means that he is the youngest man in the world in such an office.
 Mr Bell is son of Mrs. M. l.. Bell of this city. and a half brother of City Clerk w. A. Lee and Robert E. Lee, connected with the Dreyfus de- partment store. The new general so- licitor of the Rock Island is married, having wed Chicago girl several years ago.

Bile is essential to immunity from germ infection and intestinal disord- CTS.
 For years chemists have labored to overcome the only objection ever raised to Podophyllil-the griping- and at last have succeeded and offer to the world a new formula called "PoDoLax-"PoDo" from iPodophyl- lin and "Lax," meaning laxative or gentle action as contrasted with it's former cathartic or purging effect.
 PoDoLax is good to taste and is taken by children from a spoon or glass without the usual resistance. Best results are had by a single dose when bad taste, or bad breath, or coated tongue are first noticed. Ask for PoDoLax and be sure to ge- PODoLaX.
