Press Getting SASSY"

The press of the state is awfully
sassy these days. Some are saying
horrid things about one another, and
the Floridian goes 80 far as to tell
Graham, of Manatee, that he either
ought to have killed the Tallahassee
Sun man or committed suicide. This
all comes about, by the boys having a

The Flornaton Depot
Under Construction.

The Pensacola Journal makes a plea
for depot accommodations at Fiona
ton. Since the station house was
burned there some time ago, several
box cars have been used by the en-
piOyes as a station, but the public is
uncared for by the company. Fiona
ton is junction point and in these
days of trains behind schedule time,
the people suffer real hardship while
waiting there. The Journal calls on
the Alabama railroad commission to
take the case in hand.-Mobile Reg

ing the matter up that force of men
is now at work on the construction
of the Flomaton depot, though no evil
dence to that effect was apparent I'M
til this week,
If the railroad company means bust
ness now, and completes the depot
within reasonable time, the Ala
Dama railroad commission need not
interest itself in the matter.
The fact remains however. that this
depot should have been built long ago
and the railroad commission was neg
lecting its duty in failing to compel
the railroad company to act.
