During the South Florida Fair and
Gasparilla Carnival, to be held in
Tampa from Feb. 4th to 18th, inclu-
sive, the Rotary Club of that city has
arranged for the special entertain
ment of members of the Florida press,
a special feature of which entertain
ment will be a breakfast for the edi-
tors at the Tampa Bay Hotel at 9
o'clock on the morning Of Saturday,
Feb. 5th. It's long way to go to
breakfast, but it will be one worth
going halfway round the globe to sit
ina "Gridiron" affair with some of
Florida's most distinguished men on
the grid" The editor of The News
regrets that it will not be his privi-
lege to sit in with the press boys on
this occasion and listen to the flow of
wit and wisdom from these wonderful
wags. This Gasparilla Carnival has
come to be the one great mid winter
caper of all Florida, and the hustling
city of Tampa is preparing to care for
immense crowds this year, for the fun
will be funnier than ever.

Hatched in Secret
Tampa Tribune: Governor Tram
nell, in his latest utterance nthe
State Committee resolutions, declares
that the said resolutions were formed
"bv a star chamber session OF few
politicians wtho had secretly planned
to railroad the proposition through
the committee" 1t is safe to say that
the Governor would not make such a
statement without knowing what he IS
talking about, and his assertion makes
it clearer than ever that the resolu-
lions were born in political chicanery
and purely for selfish purposes. The
Tribune does not believe that they
were fully or thoughtfully considered
by the majority of the members Of
the committee who voted for them
and, therefore, that they should be re-
considered-because they strike a
blow at Democratic harmony which
will have far-reaching effect in dis
rupting and weakening tie entire or
ganiationz-and because, further, they
were conceived in partisanship and
personalism, without regard to
welfare of the party as whole and
with view to taking an undue adj
vantage of other candidates for the
benefit of a particular candidate.

Yours very truly,
C.. E, DAVIS.

A copy of Mr.. Davis first letter to
the editor was sent to Mr.. Tllghman.
1t cast some suspicion on the editor
uttered by Senator Davis in the heat
of resentment; stated that opposition
in 1913 to the Davis Law was organi-
zcd at a banquet given by liquor men
in the Tallahassee Elks' Club, and
leaving the impression that possibly
this editor attended that banquet. 1t
would be a good point for Mr.. Thigh
man if he could get the public to be-
Ilieve this editor was at that banquet
it would show up a dirty reason for
his opposition. And so Mr.. Tilghman
had the letter published, and publish
ed when he knew this editor WAS
NOT AT THAT BANQUET. If a
mans reputation for honorable &C
ton could be injured by Mr.. Tilgn-
man, he was quite willing to use any
means to injure it. He didn't see
The News editor to find out if the as
persion had any foundation in fact;
no. but he rushes to give it publication
For Mr.. Tilghman's benefit The
News editor will say that he was new
err inside the Elks' Club at Tallahas-
see, though during his 60 days in the
capital city he had complimentary
card of admission.
Since Senator Davis letter was pub
lished in The Times-Herald last week
the editor of The News has received
the following from Senator Davis:
Madison, Jan. oath, 1916.
Hon. w. A. Russell,
Palatka, Fla.
My Dear Sir:-When l mailed my
letter to you about week ago,
also mailed a copy of it to Mr..
Tilghman with the statement
that he could publish it if he saw
fit. Upon receipt of your manly
letter I Immediately wrote to him
not to give publicity to my let
ter unless he had already done
so. On Saturday received let
ter from him stating that "BE-
CAUSE OF HIS ABSENCE
FROM THE CITY he did not re-
ceive this last letter until it was
too late to keep the other out of
print, he having already turned
it over to the Times-Herald." l

But we don't want Mr.. Davis or any
one else to regret it. If the charac-
ter of the editor of this paper, who
has lived in the county nigh onto
thirty years, can be injured by innu-
endos which seek to place him among
lot of liquor lobbyists, why go ahead
and injure it.
The editor of The News doesn't re-
greet the publication. All the regret
he has is that Mr.. Tilghman's rel
gion is so liberal that it will permit
him to use weapon which he con-
dennis in the hands of others.

THAT DAVIS LETTER.

The editor of The News received a
letter from Senator Chas. E. Davis,
author of the Davis Package Law,
last week. Mr.. Davis felt aggrieved
that The News had repeated a
charge" which had been made
against him. The News saw after it
was too late that nothing was gained
in it's argument by repeating a
charge it was unable to substantiate,
and so wrote Mr.. Davis. We also
made public apology in this paper.
Immediately on receipet Of our let
ter, Mr.. Davis wrote to the editor OF
The News as follows:
Madison, Jan. 10, 1916.
Hon. W. A. Russell,
Palatka, Fla.
My Dear Sir:-I am in receipt

name l may possess, hence my
letter to you. In view of what
you may say, shall try to for

sure you, that personally, have
