ANNOUNCES CANDIDACY
FOR REPRESENTATIVE IN
GROUP NUMBER ONI

In today's paper we present the an
nouncement Of Mr.. J. Everett Bry-
ant % candidate for Representative
In the Florida Legislature. Mr.. Bry
ant, in his announcement, briefly out
lines the things he stands for, and
his platform will meet with the an
rroval Of all good citizens. Particu-
larly do We like his stand on the No
Fence law, being the only candidate
so far who has come right out in the
open on this important proposition
though 1t is entirely possible that 9th
ers may mold the same position, but
have not thus far been flat-footeo
about It like Mr.. Bryant. Flat feet,
we believe. are supposed to be rath,
er a hindrance In running, but we
opine that candidates will run best
who are most flat-footed in their
statements about the important Is.
sues to be settled.
Mr.. Bryant has been connected
with the Legislature for two sessions
and therefore "knows the ropes He
has served the people as County Com.
missioner, done splendid work a.
County Road Superintendent and en-
joys the friendship and good will OF
