Dear Siri-
I do not desiLe to Tbutti1* to the situation in
Orange County, especially, unless mine and Miss Elsie's friends
foan West Florida are notified, but I do want to say that I
do net believe it would be for the the best interests of the
administration of justice in Orange County for Mr. Joseph
Jones to be appointed County Solicitor while his brother is
State's Atto-'ney or the Circuit in. which Orange County is
located. I would desire to see you appoint either Carl Robin-
son or, Mr. MaIsey's law partner, Mr. Warlow. Carl Robinson's
father was the County Solicitor of Orange County when he
died and Judge Welborn was appointed in his place, and he is
a young man who lihs had the care of his f"th -c's fanhly on
his shoulders ever since boyhood, and I know hm Well, have
kno ;'n him for mani years and !:row him to be an absolutely
honest ancd exceptionally moral, ,upright, able and fearless
youngmau, and would appreciate it vei'y much if :'ou can see
your way clear to appoint him, as I believe also nine-tenths
of the people of Orange County would appreciate it, as lie has
been doing Judge WLlbo-rns legal wvor.k for sLue cc-.-siderable
time.
Youl'L very truly,

Dear ;ir:
It is suf-ficient to say that Florida holds out or of"ers to
thait person who desires to cast his lot with her and become a citizon,
more aduv.rntIres than can any other state in the Union, from afiost any
stand -oint that would be of benefit to the -,,erson desiring citizenship.
Florida is the most southern portion of the present United
Stateco; Florida is a peninsula, with a coast line aggregating abc-ut
11,000 miloe, ordering on the ,Gulf of ::e-ico a distance, including the
bayo and catrances to rivers and c.-es an.i mainland, about 600 mitoo,
and .,n the Gulf of :oi'co and Atlantic Cocan about 500 miles.
The Gulf of :.orico is a v.arm 1 oa of water and the Gulf
stroam running close to the eastern shore of Florida, is warmer than
it is at any other point -hcre it touches any land in this country
or in !Jurope.
In the southern portion of this State crops cbn be grown the
year round, and a greater diveor.ity of crops can be grown than in any
other state; it costs less to st'rt business t.:d to build houses here
than in any other state in the Union at this tine, and the worknan
commands ta high wages here ts in an r state. In fact, our natural
advantages, taking into consideration our abundint fish and o;-ster sup-
ply, the salubrity of the climate and the greater ease .'ith .which one

Dear Sir:
Your letter to Mr. Hollomon has just come under my
observation. Mr. Hollomon is in Territory, and will not
return for several weeks. I therefore take the liberty of
answering your communication.
It was Mr. Hollomon's idea to get you to write a
brief introductory to our Immigration edition, welcoming
a desirable class of Immigrants, home-seekers, capitalists,
etc. to the State, outlining, in a general way the advantages
of settling and investing here because of the xitkax climate,
opportunities for raising fruit, early vegetables, live-
stock, etc., etc. It would be unnecessary for you to go
into detail, as we have the different industries of the
State covered by experts in the different lines of endeavor.
For instance, we have articles on stock raising by Mr. Gait-
skill and Mr. Chambliss; an article on tobacco growing, by
Mr. Corry, of Quincy; an article on celery growing by Mr.
Whitner, of Sanford, and many other such articles. We have
an article by Gov. Hoke Smith, of Ga., by Hon. E.J.Watson,
of South-Carolina, Hon. T. K. Bruner, of North Carolina,
on the subject of immigration as it effects the South.
As above stated, we want a general introductory
article from you. This to be accompanied by a good cut of

Practically all of the matter is in type and part of
the paper is already on the press. It will therefore be
necessary for us to have this matter not later than Tuesday
or "ednesday. We are extremely anxious to get the article
and will be under obligations to you if you can favor us.
The publication will have a very large circulation, approx-
imately 50,000 copies. It will contain about 100 pages
the regular size of the Record.
Hoping to get a prompt response, we are

THE IMMIGRATION SPECIAL OF THE INDUSTRIAL RECORD.
The IMMIGRATION SPECIAL EDITION of the INDUSTRIAL RECORD, which will be issued about June
1st, will be one of the largest, handsomest and most complete publications of the kind ever issued in the South.
It will mark an epoch in Florida journalism. We call attention to a few salient features of the publication:
SCOPE: It will give, succinctly, facts and figures about Florida which will appeal to the immigrant, the
home-seeker and the capitalist. It will set forth the advantages of specific locations for specific purposes; for in-
stance, the fruit section, the vegetable section, the general farming section, and the opportunities offered by Florida
today for the location here of large manufactures and smaller industries of all kinds. It will deal with every
phase of the labor question to attract desirable labor to this State.
FEATURES: The publication will be carefully compiled and edited by a corps of experienced newspaper men
who are thorouhly conversant with Florida conditions. It will be profusely illustrated. It will contain articles by
well-known authorities on the Immigration Question, as well as articles by well-known writers on Florida subjects.
The edition will be printed on fine book paper and will be typographically handsome. From present indications, the
paper will contain over 100 pages, the regular size of the RECORD (11x14).
CIRCULATION: The edition will have the largest and most varied circulation of any paper ever issued in
Florida, because: 1st, it will be issued through our regular channels; 2nd, it will be circulated by several of the rail-
road and steamship lines which do business in the State; 3rd, it will be advertised in many of the leading news-
papers and magazines of the North and West; 4th, it will be circulated by hundreds of leading business concerns who
are purchasing copies for distribution; 5th, several thousand copies will be sent to trade organizations throughout
the United States, and to leading newspapers with request for comment. A conservative estimate of the circulation is
50,000 copies.
SUCCESS ASSURED. The proposed edition has received the unqualified endorsement (as well as large sub-
scription orders) from the State Board of Trade, the Jacksonville Board of Trade, and several hundred leading busi-
ness concerns of Florida, representing every line of business-transportation, banks, naval stores factors, mer-
chants, real estate agents, professional men, etc., etc.
SWe are spending several thousand dollars on the enterprise. Our several representatives are now traveling
throughout the State gathering data. We most cordially invite all progressive citizens of Florida, who are interested
in the development of the State, to cooperate with us in the enterprise.

Sir,--
The problems of crine, criuiinal laws and the treat:,-int
of offenders are of the greatest importance to all our States.
Each co: io.ionealth is interested in the best understanding of these
questions and in seeking the best recognized methods of dealing
with them. There is no official meeting of those interested in
pdeal work. The National Prison Association, however, is a semi-
official body, composed largely of officials from the several
States. It affords an opportunity for considering the important
questions mentioned above.
Believing that a widened and increased interest in the
meetings of this Association on the part of every State will be
helpful, I have taken the liberty of writing you to draw your at-
tention to the inporthce of this matter to ask your interest and
to invite you to co-operate with the other Executives by sending
delegates front your State, representing the heads and boards of
penal and refor..atory institutions and others interested in the
treatment of crime and the best criminal laws, to the next meet-
ing of this Association, to be held at Chicago, Illinois, Septem-
ber 14-19, 1907.
Hoping this will be in harmony with your views and that
I may be favored with an early expression thereof, and at your
early convenience by a list with the post office addresses of
the delegates appointed, I am,
Very truly yours,

worldd split the party, will say- tIat it I.s with regy ret that I
..nform you that a -,overnor o.annot succeed himself, in this rtate,
unD.r our Cons itution, in other words, he must skip one election,
and although I regret that ey friends rmotnn, hav, thle~;sure of
snrporting me .o'or re-election to the gover.norship, I mast say that
on general pri.noiples0, I believe the constitutional, provision to
be good one, as I believe that under -it you get the beat service
out of the governor, r the reason that he will not, take any "
official action, with a viewt o -its being of political benefit to
himse-lf, whereas, if he counl succeed himself, it, would be hnina to
tan-:e into consideration the political advantage that he could see
in aprointnents, and in the perf ,.rIanne o of other Ipullic duties.

Dear Gov. Broward:
I am t s year Asking you to act with Mr. Cherry as
my bondsmen in the University. I enclose herewith the bond and pres.
Cherry's letter. -fn regard to the money concerning which I spoke to
you a day or so ago, Mr. S. S. Lamb let me have all that I need. Some
of the family at first seemed to object to our marriage; consequently,
I did not feel like saying anything to them in regard to the matter.
However, their later conduct has been the most pleasant that one could
imagine. It was not easy to recover frormthe surprise that their kind
treatment gave me. Thanking you in advance for your esteemed favor,

.~y near Governor,
According t~o your request I am notifying; you of
Tr& beinff in Hot oprin~rs. About the Tjnit-.d States Judgeship,
the more T think of it the more am T impressed with the conversation
1 1rou had with me in my Libraz-r or thie ?Tonday~ before T left Tallahaeaee,
it appeaLrs to me that there will "be such a mix-up
fo the vacant Judeeeship that with the infl,.nce which you so kindly
offer in mj behalf that T might be appointed without. mu--, difficulty
to this hie~h and honorable office. Especially so does it seem
probable the desired end could be reached by your seeing Mr. "Roose-
velt personally at Oyster Bay. The Governor of the State going
to the President Of The United States in behalf of a man whom he
is willinE to say lie believes would"look in the Book" for wha-t was
ri~-ht and would do the beat lie could So3 Help Fim God", would
wo a long way towari convinvinr a mnan of MIr. 'Roozevelt's opinioris
as to the adapti~ability of r r ctoididate.
T want to sa~r right her~e thai~t if you go to Oyster
Bay to talk with thle President you m ixiy let it be known tha~t I am
CaCndidate for this judgeship, for these reasons only;- first I
believe &.ntwUiPO~U beZ on the RFench whose heart is in accord

the law to the letter and who will give them all the protection
the law writes for them in the Statute Books, third;- who will
know the people of his district and will be one of them in interest.
All of these things I am willing to do and be, but if I had to go
on that pench or any other and wear any man's @el6rJ would prefer
to remain at the ar.
In case you decide to go to Oyster Bay and wish to
carry those endorsements with you, which you spoke of, you can
get them at home by ringing up telephone number 200.
I especially call your attention fi these endorsements
to the fact that I am endorsed by practically the entire -ar of the
Eastern Division of the Northern District of Florida. The Tallahassee
Bar is headed by Ex- Chief Justice, George B. Rainey, and Senator
Fred T. tyers. There is one letter written by Chief Justice
Shackleford and T wish you would read that letter carefully. In it
he says"*y appointment would conduce to making the power jurisd-
iction and authority of the united States courts better understood
and better liked".
Do as you think is best in this entire matter and
keep me advised as you think occasion requires either by telegram

I think I can get the endorsement of Mr. C. A. Griscon ,
President of the Iteamship Combine, and in whose Dining room the
plans were completed for the Tomination of McKinley, and of
Mr. Roosevelt for vice President. His winter home is north of
us a little way you know, and T have been his attorney in some
mattetat Tallahassee and received an unsolicited letter from him
last winter saying that if there was anything he could ever do for
me to call him up and he would square accounts.

H. P. Broward, .
Governor State of Florida,
Tallahassee, fla.,
NEW YORK
Dear Sir:-
It is my intention to tour the entire United States in an
automobile commencing about Aug. 15th. My plans are to visit each
capital city by the most direct route. While this trip is purely
one of pleasure it is my intention to take advantage of the under-
taking by making same as interesting as possible. It idea in this
Sis solely from an enthusiast standpoint, for the benefit in the pro-
motion of autorobiling.
Other than the proposed long trip, it has occurred to me
that if I were to have the pleasure of the Governors of each state
to ride with me on my arrival in his city it would naturally cause
my tour to attract more attention and become more interesting. Ac-
oordingly I am prompted to write you these facts and invite you to
ride with me on my arrival in your city. Would you please advise me
if you would care to accept nor invitation as a matter of course
time and opportunity allowing.
You will of course understand that there is no schedule or
program for this trip, it being only a personal pleasure that I
anticipate, therefore the invitation extended could be accepted at
S your pleasure and convenience and the ride can be as short or as
long as you might desire.
I shall take the trip alone with my chauffeur other than
most likely some prominent automobilist in each city will accompany
me from his home city to the next.
This tour will be somewhat unique as no one has toured
S the States in this way. I should think it would be more or less
beneficial to most anyone in knowing of these accomplishments; ther-
for I hope it will have your support t tthe extent of my invitation,
2he above company with which I have been connected has
recently been dissolved. I simply write you this feeling that you
m ight possibly think this tour an advertising undertaking, but as
a above stated it is only a pleasure tour in the general interest of
automobile touring.
Thanking you for the courtesy of a prompt reply, I have the
Pleasure to remain,
laost respectfully,
"' 606 Vest 15 ew York City.
