MAY ESTABLISH DEEP WATER
HAR5oR AT FORT MORGAN.

A special telegram to the New York
Tribune, bearing a Sioux City, Iowa,
date line, reads as follows:
After years of effort Sioux City
promoters, including score of lead
ing men, have interested capitalists
of Philadelphia and st. Louis and Sc
cured contracts with the Rock Island
and Louisville and Nashville roads for
establishing a new deep water harbor
on the Gulf of Mexico. 1t will be at
Fort Morgan, Ala, to which the rail-
roads mentioned are being extended.
A low lying peninsula twenty miles
long incloses a great harbor over for
ty feet deep throughout. This PENN
sula has come into the possession Of
the capitalists interested, who will es-
tablish wharves and terminals. The
port will compete for the business of
both Mobile and New Orleans, assert
ing greatly superior advantages be-
cause of deeper water and larger area

of it. Millions are back Of the move
ment. q
This is new proposition, but there
may possibly be something in 1t.
Commenting on the matter the Birm-
ingham Age-Herald says: --.-
This is but another indication of the
drift of trade, speculation and promo
ton to the gulf. The proposed city at
Fort Morgan will, however, have to
contend with bar which will have to
be deepened 35 feet or more. No
doubt plenty of deep water exists in
side the bar and the projecting penln-
sula that is crowned by Fort Morgan,
and no doubt in the long run the Sioux
City project will become fact, for deep
water harbors on the gulf will be IN
great demand when the Panama canal
is dug, and this country begins to at
tain to it's full growth.
But it is somewhat strange that the
working out of the project should have
fallen into the hands of promoters in
Sioux City, Iowa. Most of the people
in Sioux City would not know a deep
water harbor when they saw it. But
US ludL DIS IL may, lSI DlOuA ivy NC
not dismayed by the task. No rail-
roads have been extended to Fort Nor
gan. but anything perhaps is possible
in this age of development. This dis
trict looks at any rate with favorable
eye on the Sioux City project, and
even Mobile will not oppose it, for il
may aid the latter in its task of Undue
ing the government to deepen the
water on the bar and all the way up
the bay.
Whatever may be the influences Of
the project, whether they come from
Sioux City or some other place, the
fact remains that a railroad is now
being built to the very point which
the above special mentions. The road
now under construction and which
will soon be in operation from Bay
Minette on the Louisville and Nash
vile to Bon Secour Bay, is probably
the one referred to, and, while it prob
ably will not run quite to Fort Nor
gan, it will reach the harbor at just
as advantageous a point.

In 1898 the platform on which Mr..
Bryan was nominated at Chicago con-
tanned the following plank;
The absorption OF wealth by the
few, the consolidation Of our leading
railroad systems and the formation
Of trusts and pools require a stricter
control by the federal government OF
those arteries of commerce. We de-
mand the enlargement of the powers

sion and such restriction and guar
antees in the control of railroads as
will protect the people from robbery
and oppression"
Four years later the same ideas
were more fully DEVELOPED in Mr..
Bryan's Kansas City convention.
There the following declaration was
made:
I'VE pledge the Democratic party
to an unceasing warfare in nation,
state and city against private mOnOpO-
" in every form. Existing LIS
against trusts must be enforced and
more stringent ones must be enacted,

chandise, and the whole constitutional
power of congress over interstate
commerce, the mails aud all modes Of
interstate communication shall be eX-
ercised in the enactment OF cOmpre-
hensive laws on the subject Of trusts.
We favor such an enlargement of the
scope of the Interstate commerce
law as will enable the commission to
protect individuals and communities
from unjust and unfair transportation
rates."

A movement has been started in
Kentucky for the raising OF suitable
memorial to Stephen Foster. Does
the average reader know who Stephen
Foster was? Probably not. And yet
every reader should know, for there
is probably not an American whose
heart he has not stirred. He wrote
"Old Black joe my Old Kentucky
Home" Way Down Upon the Suwa-
nee River" Nellie Grey" Come
Where My Love Lies Dreaming" and
something like 100 other songs of the
people. Now do you not feel that you
know Stephen Foster and love his
memory? His music was always
characterized by simplicity and sweet
ness.-Savannah News.
1t is probable also that the average
reader does not know that Stephen
Foster was a resident of Florida and
that in the little cottage in which
he lived on the banks of the Suwanee
River is now, or was few years ago,
still standing though it has not been
occupied since his death.

Total Second-claSs matter. 42,913
From these postofice records it will
be seen that The Journal circulates
through the mail over 81 per cent.
of the total second-class matter en-
tered at Pensacola In other words, it
lacks only 2 per cent of circulating
twice as much matter as all the other
publications in the city combined.
As The Journals city circulation,
which does not go through the
postofice at all, is equally as large in
proportion to the total newspaper cir
culation in the city, an advertiser can
readily see that his advertisement in
The Journal is read by practically two
times the number of people who
would read it if it were placed in all
the ether city publications combined.
Not only this, but there is probably
not one person out of ten in the city,
who takes any other paper al all, but
who also takes The Journal.
Go over these figures carefully. Mr..
Advertiser, and then consolidate your
advertising in the paper which is read
by two persons where all the others
combined are read by only one.

The name of Dembrosky figured
prominently in the days doings i'll

oners are not related, as far as is

Andrew Dembrosky, twenty-three
years old, of 81 Penn street was ar
raigned on a charge of accosting Vic

her gate, where he was met by her
brother and a man named Grabosky
who came near licking him. DEM
brosky put up the excuse that he was
drunk and that he took the woman
for his wife. The recorder asked him
what he had been drinking that night
and he solemnly averred that it was
only beer, two glasses. He was fin
ed SIS and costs, a total of $3.50.
A twelve-year-old girl named DEM

in come tax on corporations for 1905
will be SO, 622, 1926. 77--provided, oil
course, all the corporations pay the
taxes assessed against them by the
state. This tax will be paid by 10,0Sd
corporations.
At the corresponding period last
year the total number of corporations
assessed was 10, 1927, and the total tax
levied against them was SD, 70l, 521. "a.
This shows an increase of fifty-n!ne
in the number of companies for this
y ar: but a decrease of $40, 1874. 81 in
the taxes assessed. This decreased tax
is accounted for mainly by the fact
that several corporations of large
capitalization have had their charters
annulled by the state, owing to non
payment of the state tax. Besides,
several of the larger companies char
tered in the state have reduced their
capitalization.
There are 1914 corporations in the

aud mining companies that have so
per cent. or more of their capital in
vested in this state are not required
