COMMISSION
WHO WILL FRAME
new CITY CHARTER

/. The election for members Of a
T. commission to frame a new charter
for the city of Lakeland, held yes
terday, was utterly devoid of inter
est, only between 40 and so votes
being cast.
The officers of election did not pre-
serve any record of the vote, but
placed their findings in the ballot
box, which is locked and sealed I'M
til opened by the city commission
ers when that body meets to canvass
the vote.
The Telegram is informed by one
of the officers, speaking from mem
DRY. that the following named gen.
tlemen received the highest number
of votes and are therefore the nine
chosen from the twelve whose names
were printed on the ballot: w. X.
Piner. J. H. Peterson, NJ. G. Mum,
Edwin Spencer, NJ. l.. Bradley, E.
H. Youngs, C. l.. Willoughby, ].
c. Owens, and ]. w. Bryant.
The Telegram repeats that it has
no objection to any person whose
name appeared on the ballot, but If
the present ordinances of the city of
Lakeland mean anything at all, no
names should have been printed on
the ballots, and the legality of all
acts under any charter prepared by
commission thus selected undoubt-
eddy will be questioned. The regula-
tion is so plain on this point that the
wayfaring man though a fool can
hardly be mistaken, and vexatious
delays, trouble and expense are GER
tain to attend the future operations
of any system of government, the
initial step in the formation OF
which is open to question.

ment that Lakeland is making is be-

to keep boosting our town all the
