Pensacola's Celebration of
the Fourth of July.

Pensacola viii celebrate the Fourth
Of July this year on a more generous
scale probably than ever before.
There viii be picnics and programs
at several different points about the
city and business generally will be sus
pended.
The chiee celebration viii be held
at Bay View Park on Bayou Texar,
where an elaborate Independence Day
program vii. he carried out ana the
park itself viii be formally opened to
the pubic.
II must be admitted that CT recent
years the celcJ ration Of the Fourth OF
July has los: a great deal of ITS former
enthusiasm and significance.
There was s time when the Decia7a.
ton Of IndsPchlence was known by
heart by almost every school boy in
the land On the Fourth IF July, can
non rOared, bells rang, flags 1oatei IN
every breeze, and eloquent speakers
told again and again in words of burn
ing oratory the story of the nations
birth and growth and glory.
But these times have of recent
years undergone a change. The Fourth
of July celebrations are not what they
used to be- Whether it be the result
OF the insane spirit of commercialism
which is now devOuring our people, or
whether it comes from the fact that
the sentiments Of the Declaration of
independence, while accepted as pa
triotic at home, would be regarded as
treason in the Philippines. we do not
pretend TO say. The fact remains,
however, that the spirit of the "GIor-
iOus Fourth" is not what it once was
and the disposition of our people to
honor the day is not as ardent as it
was wont to be in years gone by.
We are glad, therefore that, so far
as Pensacola at least is concerned. a
revival of the old-ti1ne spirit is be-
coming evident and that the day win
be fttingly celebrated here this year.
Whatever may be the condition of
our national life, whatever Inconsistent
cies may exist in connection with our
own history as applied to our treat
Tnent of the Philippines. we are opti-
mistic enough to believe that. the spirit
of free government viii triumph in the
end.
Such celebrations as that Of Tuesday
next will tend to receive the old spirit
and to establish more firmly in the
minds of Americans the original intent
and purpose of our government.
The Journal trusts that everyone in
Pensacola viii help celebrate the
Fourth OF July this year and that bust
ness Of all kinds will be suspended so
that a general celebration may be pos
sible.

A. GREENHUT PROPOSES
PLAN FOR FACTORY BUILDING

Editor Pensacola Journal:
About once a month Mr.. Chipley
Jones, secretary of the Pensacola
Chamber of Commerce, writes quite a
lengthy article about the need of a
modern hotel for this city. No doubt
one could be used for the constant In
crease of the travelling public, but in
my opinion we have enough hotels
for the present and if our population
increases it will not take long before
some one will erect new one.
What we do need is more manufac,
turing enterprises. You and everyone
knows we are very much behind the
times in that respect. Formerly cot
ton was too expensive to ship here.
but within the last two years we are
beginning to be a cotton port, and a
great deal of cotton is received here.
A cotton factory would employ hun
dreds of people and in fact the local
demand of our dry goods houses would
keep small factory busy all the time.
Other cities donate land to factories
but the city of Pensacola has, / think.
given away nearly everything she
owned in the way of land ana water
front. All the city, therefore, could do
IS to exempt factories for number of
years from taxation.
Our monied men do very little to
foster manufacturing Therefore, how
can we accomplish it? The only rem
edy 1 see, is concert of action. If our
business and professional men would
unite upon a plan something like this,
in few years large fund would be
on hand, either to assist with money
any new mandatory that would To-
cate here, or the money that had been
collected could be used to put up a
factory.
A few prominent men can easily
within one week procure at least fifty
subscribers at $1,000 a month. This
would give us $4,000 month. $4,000
a year, or $4,000 in FIVE years
These figures are only for fifty men
hut / am satisfied 100 could be found
An association could be formed to
handle the money properly, without
any pay to the officers of the assoeia.
ton. AS soon as $4,000 or $4,000
is collected, we could put up some
factory and all those who paid in
could get so much paid up stock for
their money.
This is only roughly drawn, and
only intended as an outline, but feel.
satisfied it would be successful I'M

A Japanese Test.

In Japan it appears that one factor
entering into the choice Of a daughter
in-law is her skin In raising silkworms.
There is more TO this than appears on
the surface of the statement. for it
seems that the thread spun by a silk
worm is regular and even in proper
ton, as the worm has been regularly
and carefully fed. The prospective
mother-in-law carefully and infinitely
examines the garments Of the aspiring
bride, judging Of her qualifications by
their condition.

his own merits. secures promotion
into the ranks of the elect.
This is the real reason why the well
regulated, healthy-minded American
has no particular use for his own navy
as a profession. And as long as these
conditions continue the deserions so
loudly complained of may be expected
tC continue also.
This, really, is the whole story in the
matter of assertions from the Ameri.
can navy. The life itself is hard
one, but the hardest feature in it ali
lies in the fact that It holds out abso-
lutely no hope for the future. In this
respect, the American navy is the most
un-American institution under the flag
to-day.

made splendid beginning as a judge
in the municipal court. Last Saturday
he had three brutes in human form be,
fore him for manning and beating their
wives, and the mayor imposed heavy
fines and terms of Imprisonment upon
them. These wife heaters should
now go to the criminal court of record
and be again tried, and if convicted
sentenced to Imprisonment This is
one crime where no mercy should be
shown to any man. They are towards
as well as lawbreakers, or they would
not beat those who are their inferior
in strength and physical endurance
One-hah of the divorces granted in
Florida are for brutal and inhuman
treatment of wives by husbands. Some
Of the. former are ever hardly able to
perform household duties owing to the
repeated whippings administered by
husbands.
The example set by Mayor Bliss, in
Pensacola, should be followed by all
other judges. The more severe the
sentences the more they will be ap-
proved by the public. Be the husband
white or black, he is generally con-
demned by all decent people for I'll
treating his wife, and his standing in
a community is at low degree. Such
brutal husbands are hardly ever known
to test their propensities upon those
of their equal in combat They prefer
some one they can easily overpower
and Of little resistance.
