American people are noted the

one thing that impresses visitors 70
this section is the permanency of the
development. There is nothing of a
boom about our growth, consequently
there is little to worry about in the
future. Diversified industries have
long been the desire of the people of
Tampa, and these are coming stead

BEHIND TIMES?'
Canadian Who Objects to Roaming
Cattle and Hogs Asks Question.
Especial to The JournaD

TAMPA, March It's Florida 100
years behind civilization.
Emphasizing the Importance of the
campaign of the Florida No Fence
league to have the legislature submit
to the people the proposition of abol-
ishing the free cattle range and at
tendant evils at the general election
in November, this question was recent
ly put to the secretary of the Mount
Dora Development company by J.
Wismer of Fort William, Ontario, Can
ada, who contemplates investing $780,
600 in Lake county, but who is fearful
of beginning operations in a state in
which the range COW and razorback

rs it true that cattle and hogs roam
at large in your district, and if they
break into a grove or truck farm the
owner of the grove or farm has no
way of collecting from owners of cat

IF this is true. you are about 100

Mr.. Wismer was informed that Lake

hind civilization'-and that the range

to reign in the empire of lakes, game
fish and fine citrus lands.

These letters are very interesting and
full of good thoughts and advice. The
following from former resident of
Pensacola, is reprinted. Mr.. Hanlon
while here was general manager of the
Pensacola Electric company:
Editors Note.--Mr. Hanlon is the
general manager of the Tampa Elec-
trio company, an organization which
comes into contact with capital, Ia
Dor and the public. Holding the posi-
ton he does. he is well fitted to speak
of conditions as they are reflected by
the three classes into which the mod
ern business world is divided
Editor Tribune: As requested in
your recent letter, 1 am giving below
some thoughts which have occurred
to me relative to the general business
situation at this time.
We haveall heard of the general
who had a very small army. There
was no way. to make it larger. so he
made it faster Every unit was filled
with determination to win. They
moved so fast that the opposing side
found them everywhere and was COM
pletely deceived as to their number.
OF course, the general routed the en-
envy, for he possessed the very es-
sence of optimism~ courage and work.
All that present business requires is
working OPTIMISM faith in ourselves
to accomplish and confidence in 9TH
ers. Reconstruction periods of all
ages have been difficult Ours will be
longer or shorter than those of the
past in accordance with the amount IF
effort we expend to overcome the daily
problems.
