Over $500 Subscribed to the Cause mt
Public Meeting.

Pensacola, Fla, March 9.-One of the
largest and most enthusiastic meetings
ever held in Pensacola was held at the

meeting was presided over by j. S. Leon
ard, who, after a short address, gave way
to the following speakers: Rev. DIR. H. S.
Yerger, Hon. John S. Heard and Hon. c.

ton of the Cubans. The rostrum was
draped with United States and Cuban
flags, and the result of the large gather
ing was all that could be desired. A con-
tributon of over $500 was made in a few
minutes.

Among those who were victimized We're
A r. Merrill, who had given McGhee
about 500 in cash, and A. Fehrenbach
who had given up S125. When these men
learned that they had been swindled they
swore out warrants for the arrest of Nc

ABOLISH rnE FEE SYSTEM

The fee system is once more to the
front in the national senate and house
and it is being given some well-de-
served censure.
This fee question should not be al
lowed to drop with one days discus
sion in the senate. 1t should be thor.
oughly aud eXhaustively debated, and
when this is done, there is no doubt
that a measure will pass providing
that all government officers be placed
on salaries, the amount TO be based on
the amount OF business transacted,
and the fees collected by them to be
turned over to the government. A
law OF hat nature would prevent pos.

and rascals in disguise? Or lie it a
morbid condition of Lsociety that has
grown from our too lenient laws Of
free speech?
We believe in a close surveillance of
public officials, and holding taem to a
strict accountability, but we believe a
check should be placed both upon the
public press and the individual that
would seek to destroy individual char.
acter for no other purpose than politi'
cal gain.
Nor is IL confined to county officials ..
The same effort is being applied to ma
tional and territorial officials.
Throughout the laud, from the presi-
dent down to road overseers, th g
same condemnatory system prevails.
No credit whatever is given for acts
%honorably and nobly rendered; no
charity is extended for human frailty;
no official is accounted honest or
given credit for honest motives. We
seem TO have forgotten that it Is hui
man to err and look upon our public
officials as objects of criticism rather
than as commendable servants.
What incentive is there to self-de-
NAL and personal sacrifice in public
service, when one knows that his
good deeds will be suppressed and any
little errors and mistakes will be mag
nifed against himP
While we believe in holding officers
TO a strict account, we also believe in
giving them credit for service rem

with that Of Scott would be ranging

THE arst practical test of the Ront'

Berlin last week. A poor German
sewing girl had swallowed a needle,
which had lodged in her stomach,
causing her to spit blood and vomit,

She was taken to the Rontgen'labora'

of the entire upper part of her body.
The picture clearly shows every bone
in her body and the needle was also
photographed, showing that it was
lodged point downward in the lower
