GILCHRIST SAYS LAKELAND
STAR FURNISHED THE TEXT

Punta Gorda, Fla, Aug. 5, 1915.
Editor Pensacola Journal:
In July, several papers published
an article by me in reference to the
laws governing candidates. The fol-
lowing is a quotation from this arti-
Gle: my recollection is that | have
seen an article in the press more or
less to the effect that when candi-
date visits town there is some ques-
Etion as to whether his presence should
be mentioned unless he pays for the
same, as a mention of his presence
gives him and his candidacy publicity,
and is therefore a direct benefit to
him. A candidate might also show
his business qualities by at least sub
Iscribing for the paper, or in other
ways. This last sentence did not APP
pear in said paper.)
However the editor may be in
cined to vote, some of the readers
Of his paper are liable to vote for
said candidate, regardless of the in
fiuence of the press as displayed in
that particular instance" "If the
election of q citizen to the high Office
of United States Senator is to be
considered simply a benefit to himself
| only, then the politics of the state
have degenerated to a low standard"
The following is taken from the
Tampa Morning Tribune Of July 10th,
credited to the Lakeland Star:
'We mean to ask, do politicians
Ipay for the advertising they get
through the newspapers? Well, if
they do not, who is to be blamed
for their failure to Go so? Anybody
but the newspapers themselves 2"
when a candidate lands in town
it is often the case that lie hunts up
i the newspaper office the first thing
| We think hirl wise in so doing. And,
moreover, if We found the papers
ready and waiting to give US all
needed publicity without cost-to
anybody except the newspapers-
Why, being usually quite impecunious,
we would certainly again accept their
good Offices"
| at cannot be forgotten however
that the politician is but an individual
man seeking to be recognized, and
that he, personally, has no more
claim on newspaper space than does
the hunblest and most obscure cit
! izen."
eff a politician serves his state
well the state viii be well repaid for
al the publicity given him in his cam
paigns by the newspapers. But where
J docs the newspaper get on? Who
fpays for ink, and paper and labor or
Saturday nigt 4,
Besides, if newspaper. space is de.
3irable at all, it surely must be de.
sirable for Some definite particular
purpose and. therefore worth the
money. Who SO fitting to pay for i
as the man who uses it
The newspapers are dealers il
news and politicians furnish news
Indeed they are news, often. Peopl,
who buy and read newspapers wan
to know about what the politicians
are doing, where they go, what the!
4 say, and when reader buys papel
! he buys Just that particular informa
. ton often, This is the peoples sid
of the newspaper"
"And maybe some newspapers ge
5 a neat little sum out of some pol
! iticians."
+ Ny article showed that the limita
ton of the expenses of a senatorial
. candidate is $4,000, making it abso
I lutely impossible for anyone to pa,

WANT CANDIDATES TO TELL
THE PEOPLE ABOUT ISSUES

Editor Pensacola Journal.
As the candidates for United States
senate are getting interested in the
voters would it not be a good thing
to find out how they stand on certain
matters of public interest, for in
stance, the Pensacola-Mcbile canal, a
thing that wousd be of so much value
to our city and section? We need it
and we will have to depend on our
representatives in Washington to get
it for Us. VIZ tf.z~ - 81?

When over the ocean some distance
from the beach { Il place about four
miles north Of OrmOnd, Gray lost con
troll of the machine in some manner
and it plunged into about five feet of
water. How Gray escaped instant

an hour, bcOfrc help reached him.
The planes Of his machine are badly
broken but the canvas and motor
were but slightly damaged.
1t is said that the fall caused Gray
to lose his nerve and he has announc-
ed that he will give up flying. The
machine is offered for sa,c in today's
