The Municipal Contest in New York.

The courts have decided and Mr.
William Randolph Hearst loses out in
the mayoralty contest in Greater New
York.
Many will still believe however,
that had all the ballots been recount

and to that extent, the great editor
win become a martyr and have the
sympathy Of a large part of the pub
lie on his side. But, the closeness of
the vote it seems to US is enough to
convince the most skeptical that the
election was a fair one.
Tammany had the election machin-
cry all in its own hands and if it had
been disposed to commit frauds. the
result would not have been so nearly
equal.
The whole country was surprised at
the closeness of the vote and none
more so than Mr.. Hearst himself He

a dollar of the reward SO offered Not
withstanding the interest manifested
and the alert watches at every voting
place, there was no evidences of fraud
anywhere in the city and when the
votes were counted the very closeness
shows that Mr.. Hearst received every
ballot that was cast for him and from
the few boxes afterward recounted by
order of the courts it was seen that
almost as many votes were counted
against Mr. Mcclellan as against Mr..
Hearst.
The big rewards offered by Mr..
Hearst were almost alluring enough
to partake of the nature of brides and
induce persons to swear falsely, but
as they were insufficient to reveal
even the SUSPICION of wrong doing,
the truth must be accepted that in
this great contest there was a free
ballot and a fair count.
With all the harsh things that are
said against Tammany, We still be-
lieve that it is the most tolerant, able,
honest and dignified political organi-
zation in the United States.

BUILD FOR PEACE. NOT FOR WAR.

We reprint in another column an
article from Mr.. George T. ANGEL. the
philanthropic editor of Our Dumb
Animals"
We wish to emphasize and reen-
force what Mr.. Angel has said, "Why
not build for peace as well as for
war;"
We appropriate millions and mil
lions for our army and our navy every
year in order to keep the country on
a war footing, why not appropriate
similar amounts to keep our country
on a peace footing?
If we educate our young men to be-
come sailors and soldiers. why not ed
ucate them to become statesmen and
philanthropists.
II We spend millians for improving
our rivers and harbors for the pur
poses of commerce and navigation
why not spend millions in improving
our highways thereby making life
more comfortable and desirable for
those dwelling in the country?
Forts and Notifications, battIeships
and armored cruisers, cannon and
useless, but those things that make
for peace and righteousness are en-
during and eternal and will last as
long as the government shall last.
The object of government should
be the care of the people-to make
them strong and healthy in body and
mind.
The cultivation of the war spirit
has been the ruin Of nations-let the
United States set the example of cul-
tivating the peace spirit and if We
shall spend as much in this direction
as we have in the other poverty will
be abolished and we will no more
know want nor the fear of want

Jonn 6eaTd Opens the Campaign IN

The campaign of 1906 has been
opened early-even before the year is
ushered in-by the announcement for
the state senate of Hon. John s.
Beard whose address to the voters of
Escambia county is published else
where in the Journal today.
That Mr. Boards candidacy will be
strong one goes without saying.
There is hardly a democrat in Es-
Gambia county who does not know
him, either personally or by reputa-
ton, and his exceptional ability and
virile democracy have won for him
admiration from political friend and
foe alike.
This is the first county office that
Mr.. Beard has ever asked at the
hands of Escambia county democrats
and he will no doubt command a
strong. active support from the begin
ming. If nominated he will succeed
Hon. W. A BlOunt, who has filled the
position of state senator SO ably for
the past four years, and the reputa-
ton for force and ability which Es-
Gambia has been fortunate in possess
ing in the state senate will be effec-
tually sustained by Mr.. Beard.-Pen-
