The Jacksonville Metropolis
f t lie 20tli inst. was what miht
properly be termed "a hummer."
It consisted of fifty six pages
and cliock full of statistical in
formation concerning Jackson.
yille and her remarkable growth
and progress which is of ineti
timable value. The "little Met"
achieved a distinct journalistic
triuuijtli in tltis edition.
The honorable Kl.a A. Davis,
erstwhile candidate for Con.
gressional honors in this dis'.ric.'.
failed at the last moment to
properly canned and as a result
only two names will appear on
the official ballot iu this district
as candidates for congress
J.V. C Griggs and Dannitte II.
Mays. Mr. Davis failed to pay
in his assessment to the commit
tee and his name will not be
certified as a candidate.
Governor Patterson has an
Bounced that be is a candidate
for re-election in Tennessee, his
announcement coming upon tUe
heels of his inexcusable exercise
ef the pardoning power in be
half of the murderer of Senator
Carma:k. The governor is a
man of nerve, to say the least,
but we hope that the good people
of his State will rise in their
miiiht and burl him from the
liigh office which he has disgrac
ed and degraded. We'd like to
be a citizen of Tenness.ee just
long enojgh to put in a vote
against him
Recent democratic gains in
Massachusetts, New York and
other States seems to have put
heart in the democratic party
and there are strong indications
and high hopes that the next
Congress of the United States
will be democratic by a good
majority. The gains have been
made In strongbotjs of the Re.
publican party and it is appar
ent that the people are begin
ning to awake and realize that
Republican promises are made
to be broken. Let the good
work go on as it has started and
we'll begin to think there is
30ii;e chance of electing a dem
ocratic president in 1912.

He stands for the development of our country; wants
to build up, and not tear down.
He has been doing will do, and is doing something
to-day-
If elected, he will remain at his post of duty when his'
country needs him.
Seuator Taliaferro and his
campaign manager, Dell Cassi
dev. have come to ths front with
emphatic denials of any con
nection upon their part with the
now famous or infamous let
ter of Pleasant Holt tochairman
Price of the State Executive
committee. Neither oi these
gentlemen knew anything of
su:h a letter, no contribution
had been given or promised by
the Taliaferro forces as indicat
ed in the letter and Mr. Taliaf
erro bad do knowledge or con
nection with it any way. Good
for Mr. Taliaferro.
The Franklin County Griggs
Club has been organized in Apa
tachicola, the borne town of the
gen'al candidate for Congress
ional honors. It was organized
with more than three hundred
members and it is said that
Franklin county will give her
favorite son a practically unau
imous vote ou primary day.
That is pleasant for the Judge
but it will hardly count a great
deal for the simple reason that
Jefferson county maybe confi
dently expected to do as much
for her son, Dannitte II. Mays.
Albert Williamson oftheFlor
idian says with regard to the
Holt-Price letter: "VTe never
claimed to have theqriginal let.
ter. But we uot only CLAIM
TO HAVE but we STILL HAVE
A COPY of the original, and it's
no fake, fraud or forgery either.
How do we know this? Because
MR. HOLT ACKNOWLEDGED

EACH and EVERY PARA
GRAPH CONTAINED THERE.
IN. IN THE PRESENCE OF
PATRICK II. ODOM of this
city." Come again, Mr. Price.
Hon. N. A. Blitcli who is a
candidate to succeed himself as
Railroad Commissioner, is one of
Florida's best and cleanest pub
lic men. He has served bis peo
ple in the legislature, both hous
es, with marked ability, and in
every poaitioo which he has
occupied he has "made good."
Mr. Blitcli will doubtless receive
a handsome majority in the com
iog primary and the people of
the State could not do better
tban to again give him a place
on the Railroad Commission.

vot tliii'. wiib i-ii-t. for me n lit I thank
tbe voters of Madison cntuty for w lini
they did fur ni".
I am a native of Madison couijtv . was
born Apnl 2-, lT'.'. one inll t'uili ot
Madison and my father moved from
thi r to Hopewell tiichbns been my
home up to ibo present time. There
fore, I feel a if rent interebt in old Miidi
son couDtv nt.d the citizens that live in
it. I have been raised on a farm and
huven't anything but whut you call a
common school education, but leel that
I am comnetent to fill the office that I
have asked for. We have a good man
holding this office now and has been for
many years, but do not consider that
any reason why the voters of the coun
ty should elect the same man to office
every two years. I think if we have
hut one mn in Hie county who Is til to
hold tbe treaeurer's olllce then Madison
county is in a critical condition. Two
years ago some thought that I could
not give the bond required., but I truly
hope that no one will have that opinion
of m in this cainpaivn. I intend to
conduct this campaign just ae I did be
fore and will not have aoythinn lo say
against any of my opponents as I do
not approve of anything of (hit kiud.
Eloping that no one will get oft'ende'.
at theft few remark) and that the
cutnpnin will be a successful one fur
me. Respectfully,
