A Comparison
Not Sustained by Logic.

Senator Morgan, Of Alabama, re-
Gently gave expression to a most re-
markable utterance That is, it Is
remarkable for a man Of the inteni-
gence. the standing. and the promi.
nenee generally which the Alabama
senator possesses. Speaking Of the
recent New York election Senator
Morgan said:
The movement for Hearst is a move
ment for mob rule Il is an insanity.
It is the same sort of Inflammation
that was exhibited at various times
throughout Europe and in parts of the
United States. II is the Inflammation
which has shown itself especially
virulent in form in Russia during the
last few days and which has been ex-
hibited repeatedly in Germany, Italy.
Austria and France. There is less Of
it in England than In any other Euro
pean country, but it exists there to a
certain extent. 1t made itself felt IN
Chicago in the election Of Mayor
Dunno, and the results Of his election
gave another demonstration Of the
folly and futility Of such performances
and of the possibility Of accomplish
ing any good by such means
The statement does violence to both
the Intelligence and the patriotism
which usually characterize Senator
Morgan's public utterances.
In the first place, his statement thar
the movement for Hearst, or a move
ment for anybody or anything else in
this country, is OF the same order as
the present revolutionary movements
among the oppressed peasants Of Rus
sias or in the same class with the re-
volts against governmental oppression
which have from time to time shaken
the various countries Of Europe in the
past-this statements something
which no man Of Intelligence ought to
be responsible for and which no patri-
otto American can afford to make.
Popular movements Of any kind. in
this country or any other country. are
simply effects Of certain conditions or
causes.
If therefore the Hearst movement =
which Senator Morgan designates as a
movement for "mob rule" is of a kind
with the present disturbances in Rus
sja, it logically follows that the same
conditions which produce the Russian
disturbances are also present in this

the first Edition Of a Pensacola news

The Journals circulation is much
larger now than it was then and ad-

more valuable to the advertiser than
it was in the Christmas Edition OF
1904 That edition consisted Of only
1000 copies-a big number for that
time, but not so big when compared
with The Journals circulation now

from to-day viii have a circulation OF
over 5000 copies. by far the largest

printed in Pensacola.
Advertisers should prepare copy at

and those buyers can be reached in
no other way than through the col
