 It has been the custom in many cities, especially at seaport cities, to issue naturalization papers or voting papers to almost any applicant on the eve of an election without any par l ticular inquiry into his claim to them Tn such cases fraud upon the ballo: is practicpd because it often hap rencd that the applicant was mere v sojonrner in the country who had no intention of becoming a permanent resident or of going further in the matter of acquiring citizenship than t2 signify such intention with view t. casting a vote i'll the pending cleo ton at the instance of some candi- Gate or ward heoler.

AGAINST REGICiDES.

The unspeakable crime on the we'd ding day of the King and Queen of Spain, by which many lives were sac riticed, though the royal couple es- caped unharmed from the flying splin- ters of the bomb of the assassins, has again stirred up the governments Of Europe, and they arc now considering what steps to take for the protection Of society against that class of mur derers. Inquiry has been directed to the United States government to as certain whether anarchists. driven out of Europe. would find an asylum here, to which by way of answer, an emphatic No" has been returned.
 It does not seem to be quite clear abroad that, whatever failings this nation may have in the way Of dis respect of law and legal authority, 1t has absolutely no sympathy for q class, or for individuals who make regicide part of their philosophy or religion We regard the crime al tempted in the Spanish capital as ;l crime against humanity and civiliZa tion.

MAILS ARE NOW
BECOMING
HEAVY
And the Force of Clerks at
the Postofice Is Taxed
to Handle Business.

Mail matter which is being received
at the local postoffice, both to be for
warded to various cities and coming
in from all directions, is now becom-
ing exceptionally heavy, and it is the
expectation that as Christmas ap-
proaches the business will become
heavier, and the force of clerks and
carriers in the city will be taxed to
handle the packages and letters.
During last week the amount OF
matter sent to foreign countries from
this city was larger than known in
many years. Parties here who nave
relatives in far-away countries were
sending packages and letters Tor
Christmas. and with this increase al
SO came the usual added amount wit
messed each year upon the approach
of Christmas.
Each train arriving in the city dur
ing the past two or three days rs
brought almost double the usual
amount of mail matter to the CITY
The increase in the number OF pack
ages and parcels seems to be larger
than that of letters It is expected al
the local Office that the amount OF
mail matter will grow each day until
Christmas. and there will be but little
rest for the employees of the post

WILL ENDEAVOR
To SAVE OLD
RELIC
Guillotine in Rear of Spanish
House Will Be Preserved
If Possible.

The old Spanish guillotine, which
was found in the rear of the old
bouse on East Intendencia street,
which was occupied by the Inten-
dente. or mayor of Pensacola during
the rule of the Spaniards, will be
preserved If it is possible and If in
formation can be secured that VIII
proye that it WAS used f1r the pur-
nose as stated. Mayor Bliss mas
taken I'M the matter and is making

he desires to secure the relic for the
CITY and have it moved to some point
where it can be seen by visitors II

II is said that the residence was
the Spanish headquarters at one tune
when they occupied Pensacola. and
that the guillotine was placed in the
rear of the house, where those sen
tenced TO death were beheaded. The
guillotine is of brick and is rather
neculiarly constructed. but it Is sta
ted that it was used for the purpose
named. =.
The house, which is supposed &c
no one of the Oldest in the city, is
being demolished for the reason thai
the storm of September so badly
damaged the structure that the city
would not grant a permit for repairs
to be made, owing to the fact tina
the building is within the IRE limits

they be permitted to buy two hundred
thousand acres for game preserve.
The forest service of the department
made an adverse report and asked
that the lands be withdrawn for for

that in granting this request he had
only temporarily suspended the opera

termining the best interests of the
Indians.
