OUR CRIMINAL CLASSES
STATISTICS FROM MONTGOMERY, MOBILE BIRMINGHAM
JACKSONVILLE AND PENSACOLA


One theory of reform is to work
from the top down. and not from the
potion up. Perhaps the better way
Is TO persue the plan of the civil en-
g!neer, who. tunneling through the
mountain, works from both ends and
meets in the middle.
NO ArchimeGian lever is strong
enough to lift society as long as it re-
mains top-heavy with certain immor'
alltles which topple it over whenever
ITS center of gravity is disturbed. The
easiest way to destroy any vice is to
depCpularize it, Make any SO-called
little offence in a community respect
able and all the bad people in that
community will indulge to an excess
III that particular thing.
There are certain privileges indulg-
ed IN by well regulated people, which
become abusive in the hands of
others. When hOop-skirts were first
introduced into the Sandwich Islands
they were immensely popular at
court and royal ladies for a time
HAD a monopoly on the fashion. But
soon the natives began the purchase
OF hoop skirts, from an enteTprising
American agent, but not being adapt
ed to their style Of dress, they put
bamboo bottoms to the skirts and
hung them up in the trees and baited
them with dates and coaconuts to
trap wild monkeys. What is an inno-
cent luxury to one may be a danger
GUS snare to another. The pertinency
of this illustration may become
more apparent as this series of arti-
cles develops.
Pensacola is not a city of large
crimes, but of many little Offenses.
From police records it appears that
Pensacola has a larger number of ar
rests each year than either Jackson
vile, Montgomery or Mobile. During
the year 1905 there were in Jackson
vile 1921 arrests of all descriptions
from which the city received a reve-
nue. of $13,065. Montgomery for the
same period had 4,457 with a reve-
nue. of $1S,96450. During the year
1905 Birmingham is credited with
9,795 arrests and the revenue from
these arrests was $31, 67676. 1t may
be well to state that the city court of

Judge Parker Again
in Bad Taste.

Judge Alton B. Parker, late demo
cratic candidate for the presidency,
seems to have learned nothing by ex-
perience. and instead of taking his de-
feat gracefully continues to go out of
his way in wanton and altogether un-
called-for attacks upon the personal
honor of his successful opponent, Pres
ident Roosevelt Judge Parker was
4 recently in Birmingham and in an in
terview published in the Birmingham
Ledger he is reported as saying;
am convinced, as far as I am per.
sonally concerned, that Mr.. Roosevelt
will ask for the nomination of the re-
publican party for third term. While
this would probably be disputed if it
was reported in Washington, or in
other portions Of the east, in my own
mind, l am satisfied that, al present,
this is the intention of the president.
In spite of the fact that when his NOM
ination in 1904 was an assured fact.
he made the statement that under no
condition would he again be a candi-
date, l believe that Roosevelt has in
tended all along to again ask for the
nomination
This is equivalent to saying that
President Roosevelt deliberately and
purposely mis-stated his real inten-
tons on the matter of a denomination
and that Judge Parker personally
does not believe the presidents per-
sonal word can be depended upon.
Without going into the question of
President Roosevelt's personal integ-
rity-which, however, we believe is
regarded quite as highly as that of
the gold-telegram candidate-it must
be admitted on all sides that Judge
Parker is showing anything but good
taste IN going about the country ques-
tioning the word and motives of a
chief executive whose election gave
to Judge Parker the distinction of be-
ing the worst defeated candidate in
the history of his party.
His dignity" was exploited as one
of the chief assets of Judge Parker's
political stock in trade, but even that
seems to have been padded in the in
voice.

Palafox Street Car Tracks
Should Be Changed.

Several weeks ago The Journal call
ed attention to the desirability of NOV.
ing the street car tracks from the
center to the sides of that portion of
Palafox street between Garden and
Wright streets, so that the place now
occupied by the car lines can be pre-
served for park, as it was originally
intended to be.
We now understand that the board
Of public works is favorable to this
proposition and we believe that the
members Of the city council will also
approve il. The matter must, how
ever, be settled before street paving
begins and for that reason The Jour
nal again calls the attention of the
council to it.
The street car company would in
all probability object to bearing the
expense necessary in such a move.
and The Journal does not believe that
the company should be compelled 10
bear it But the matter is of such
importance to the city that the CITY
itself could very well afford to nav
for the moving of the car tracks in
this case.
II the tracks are not to be moved
and the place is not to be preserved
as a park, then the. street paving
should be done in the center of the
street where the tracks now lie and
each side which is now used for travel
should be either converted into mark
or sold for business purposes.
Under the present arrangement the
center portion of the street occupied
by the street car line is just that much
waste space and it will continue TO
be until the prevailing plan is chang
ed 70 one or the other of the plans
suggested by The Journal.

as many as for the five months pre-

Of this number must have been from

The Anti>Spitting Ordinance
as Applied in Street Cars.

A lady sends The Journal the fol
lowing communication, which is self
explanatory
At the meeting Of the city fathers
as recorded in Thursday mornings
Journal, the city board Of health re
quested the council 10 amend the
anti-spitting ordinance in the street
cars.
They suggest that two cuspidors be
placed in each car to remedy the evil
Personally, 1 think the remedy pro
posed quite as Objectionable as tho
evil itself One is under foot; the
other elevated. and more prominent
for the ruination Of ladies' dresses in
passing in and out of the cars. Be
sides how are the cuspidors to be
kept in placer
The anti-spitting ordinance should
be made emphatic. In the first place
for health and common decency; in
the second place, in the short ride
taken on the cars, splitting is I'm.
necessary. This filthy habit is not
tolerated in other cities, wny must it
be here? Make the penalty great
enough and 1t will cease to be a neces-
sity.
The Journal quite agrees with its
lady reader. Splitting should be pro-
hibited in the street cars and it would
be without any additional legislation,
II the street car management had life
enough about it to make and enforce
proper street car regulations on its
own account.
II is difficult for the city to enforce
an anti-spitting ordinance so far as it
applies 70 street cars unless it can
have the cooperation Of the street
car company But the Pensacola
street car company seems to object
to doing anything in this respect that
It is not forced to do, and this seems
to be q case which is decidedly up to
the company.

different sources over 1900 arrests
credited to the criminal records OF
Pensacola by nonresident popula
ton which, under conditions do not
properly belong to us.
In 1895 Montgomery had 66 case
of concealed weapons. Jacksonville 81
while Pensacola only had 81. While
Montgomery had 1906 cases of drunk
profane and obscene language, and
disturbances of the peace of every
kind. Pensacola had 1889 cases OF
drunk alone and $500 cases of pro-
fame language. For the same year
Jacksonville had 1915 DRINKS. OF
profane ana obscene language Jack
sonvihe had only 269 cases, while
Pensacola had 1924. If these records
are a criterion, then Pensacola is the
worst talking city in the country.
will not stop here to comment on this
fact. but will reserve this subject for
a future article.
There are forty-one licensed places
for selling liquor in Pensacola, be-
sides some other places where 1t Is
sold without license. There is one
saloon to every six hundred of our
population including men, women and
children. 1t is certainly convenient
To drink in Pensacola if people feel
so inclined, and this may account. to
some extent, for the large number of
DRINKS to her discredit on the police
records Of the city.
Convenience has much to do with the
whiskey habit. ESilas Simmons was
moonshiner and lived up in the
Choctowhatchie country. Uncle ST.
as he was called, set UP a still in the
smOke-hOuse in one corner of his yard
about twenty feet from his dwelling
house. Now the spring from which
the family got drinking water was at
the foot of the hill about a hundred
yards away. When 81 was thirsty
it was so much more convenient to go
to the smoke house for a drink than
to the spring. that he stopped drink
ing water entirely. He boosted that
he hadn't drunk no water in nine
teen years"
Mans original drink was branch
water There are now more distil-
leries in the country than branches,
and certainly more beer used than
there was before Milwaukee became
famous"

EAST GREGORY STREET
IN BAD CONDITION

Editor Pensacola. Journal:
Dear Sir:-I would like, through the
columns of The Journal, call the at.
tention of the city officials, and most
especially the Board Of Health, to the
unsanitary condition of East Gregory
street, most especially the portion
east Of Alcaniz street. If there ever
were any cutters to carry OF the
water from the street, they nave long
since been obllterated and conse-
quently every time it rains the water
and filth from the street washes over
the sidewalks and into the froRt yards
of the residents.
Warm weather and the mosquito
will soon be here and if the cutters
aforesaid are not cleaned out and the
stagnant pools properly drained sick,
ness is bound 10 result Other street
are looked after by the city and clean
ed up after storms and I don't see
why our street cannot be given a
spring cleaning. to the health and
welfare Of its residents.
Now is the time to Dig out those
neglected cutters and drain ways OF
the city and not wait until warm
weather comes and fills the air full
Of poisonous odors from the foul re-
fuse.
Mr.. Editor, ! hope the mayor, or the
proper Official win take notice and do
something toward cleaning up our
street and receive the gratitude of its
many residents.
