GORDON ENDORSES L0nTz
and GOODRICH IN OPEN
N0TETO COUNTY VOTERS

We have appropriated billions for in
ternal improvements, and have moth
ing to show for the expenditure. We
have spent millions upon public build
ings where the business transacted
does not pay for the upkeep. We have
appropriated hundreds of millions for
rivers and no commerce moves upon
them.
All Of this because year after year
the American people have sent hack
politicians and narrow partisans to
congress to manage a corporation that
requires over $1,250,O00.000 year In
running expenses. Isn't it time to Sc
lect business men who have made a
success of their own affairs, to help
administer the business of this coun-
try?
Mr.. Lontz is asking the privilege of
being one of the managing directors
of this nations business, of having a
voice and a vote in this critical epoch
of our national history, in the guidance
of our commercial and industrial at
fairs, in the amount of money that is
to be expended and how it is to be
expended. If Mr.. Lontz's services as
an active managing director were OF
fered any commercial or industrial or
banking institution of Richmond, would
the stockholders reject his offer? Are
not the stockholders in our national
government as anxious to get such
men and get rid of the drivelers who
have brought the nation to it's present
estate of waste and inefficiency?
Speaks of Goodrich.
While upon the subject of business
men in politics in the coming primary,
would be less than fair if did not
speak a good word for James P. Good
rich, candidate for nomination for gov
ernor on the Republican ticket.
Because he has always been active
in politics, he has not been known to
the public as a successful business
man of many interests, and withal II
clean business man who has honestly
acquired his interests and honestly adj
them. The public service
corporations with which he is identi-
fled in this state and other states are
models of efficiency, honestly financed
and live up to the name of public ser.
vice" both in quality of service rer-
dered and the rates charged His pri-
vate enterprises are similarly operat-
ed. 1t has been my good fortune to
have known personally "Jim" Goodrich
during the past sixteen years. In that
time / have been pretty familiar with
the ways of politicians and have seen
much Of the inside Of legislatures,
caucuses and conventions. l have new
er yet known where Mr., Goodrich turn
ed dirty trick, gave any assistance
to a crooked measure in the legisla-
ture or advocated the nomination Of

Thwarts Bad Legislation.
On the other hand, out of my per-
sonal knowledge, ] can point to where
he has helped to thwart vicious legis-
lation demanded by his party associ-
ates; helped prevent the nomination
of crooked politicians of his own party
and opposed with all vehemence, tao
tics and practices by his party that
he warned his associates were unfair
to the public and would bring them
trouble and grief.

wherever known he is cordially
liked He is built for running, and

NEW YEAR MOVEMENT
OF STATE PRISONERS

Tallahassee, Jan. ALL leases
Of State prisoners entered into by
the board of commissioners of State
institutions Jan. |, 1914, expired at
midnight Dec. 81, 1915, and many
new leases for the ensuing two years
went into effect Immediately.
For the past few days the prison
department has been actively ut
work directing the transfer of pris-
oners from one camp to another, an
undertaking of considerable magni-
tude, as the board had so ordered
the transfer as to minimize the eX-
pensc tc the lessees and the hazard
of escapes So far no escapes have
been reported, and apparently the
transfer has been effected without
serious handicap in any way.
No white prisoners are subject to
lease under the act passed by the
legislature of 1915, and the 53 pris-
oners in the two white camps re-
naming under the old lease were re-
turned to the State Prison Farm at
RaiiOrd. The second grade and hos
pita, prisoners who for the past two
years have been maintained at Ma
rion Farms, near Ocala, will be re-
moYed to Raiford early this week.
| Four counties-Walton, Marion,
Osccola and DeSoto -cOntracted for
total { 80 prisoners for public road
work, and the able bodied colOred
males, about 500 in number, were
leased to turpentine operators
| throughout the State. When the
Ocala prisoners are removed to Rail
