The Ice Shortage.
Pensacola has been suffering from
shortage of ice- The fishing fleets
which proceed from that port require
a large amount of ice and it seems the
factories there are unable to meet the
demand and that of their city custom
ers too. Ice has been supplied from
Jacksonville and from other points,
but yet the citizens suffered consider
ably aast Sunday from lack Of the
frigid niece ssity. There seems to be
no complaint Of an ice trust.-Jack-

Not Onto the Trust Racket(?)
The Pensacola ice factories are un-
ments have been made there from
cola ice dealers have not gotten onto
the trust racket, or else they have
profted by the experience of those
who had In Ohio and other parts and
have gone to giving fair and just meas
ureinents. One or the other of these
conditions could be responsible for

Believes In Bryan.
Senator Mallory believes that Bryan
could be elected president, even though
Roosevelt were his opponent. But as
Roosevelt has repeatedly said he
wouldnot bea candidate again, he might
as well be counted out of the game.
Even should he yield to pressure"
he would only excite the disgust of
sober minded republicans by what they
would consider his vacillation.-Jack-
sonville Times Union.
PensaeoIians and Panama City.
A great crowd gathered at Panama
City yesterday to celebrate the ami
fS1 I'll bAO Ulltu vi Cu6St
States. The threatening rainy wealth
er of the several days previous gave
way, the morning clouds vanished ant
the day was an ideal one.
At the appointed time Mr.. G.. M.
West. the president for the occasion,
opened the program in a few we'll
timed remarks and introduced Mr..
Frank L. Mayes, editor and manager
oe The Pensacola Journal, who for
half an hour held the closest attention
en- the part of his hearers. Lack of
time prevents the Buoy from giving
an extended report of this mastery
address; but it is enough to say that
it should have been heard and treas
ured deep by every one who takes. or
should take. an interest in the welfare
of this government. His reference to
the adroitly concealed rocks that are
a menace to our liberty-assuring sys-
tenn painted picture repleee will
sound logic and patent truths. Mr.
T. A. Jennings, of Pensacola, was pre-
scented. Mr. Jennings, although hal-
ing been invited to be present. was not
aware that he would be called upon for
an address until after his arrival at
st. Andrews Tuesday evening, and
hence made excuse that Re was not
prepared; but 1t was the unanimous
verdict that there was no occasion for
excuses, for it is doubtful if he could
have pleased his hearers more if hej
had devoted ever so much time tol
preparation.-St. Andrews Buoy.
That Joint Debate.
Holm ri ha
tor from Escambia county, and Cover
nor Broward, have agreed upon joint
debate Of the drainage question to take
Place in Pensacola az date to be fix

Gainesville Board of Trade could gst

liar discussion. and give grand bar
becue on the day agreed upon, it would
be big drawing card. Our people
would also like to hear the question
of the state engaging in life insurance
discussed by the governor and some
one opposed to the measure. These
will be two of the most important
questions 70 come before the next leg
islature.-Gainesville Sun.
Quite Improper.
Pensacola proposes to use girls as
telegraph messengers. But there arel
some places, bar-rooms. for example, TO
which girls should not go. nor should
boys 1t would be right to refuse toI
deliver kilograms at improper or dis
reputable places; instead, notify the
addresses by telephone or mail to call
