Yes, bury me deep in the infinite sea,
Let my heart ave a limitless grave;
For my spirit in life was as fierce and
free
As the course of the tempest wave.
AS far from the stretch of all earthly
control
Were the fathomless depths of my
mind;
And the GIBBS and flows of my single soul
Were as tides to the rest of mankind.
Then my briny pail shall engirdle the
world.
AS in life did the voice Of my fame;
And each mutinous billow that's sky
ward curled
Shall seem to re-echo my name.
Tha name shall be storied in annals OF
crime
In the uttermost corners of earth;
Now breathed as a curse-now n spell
word sublime,
In the gloriied land of my birth.
Ay. plunge my dark heart in the infinite
sea-
1t would burst from a narrower tomb;
Shall less than ocean his sepulchre be
Whose mandate to millions was doom!

wreathed with the feathers, while
four large plums fell over the left

the blue dress was most striking, but
decidedly becoming. The sleeves Of

IHE BAD MAN

The revival services in the little
church on Spring street had been
going on for the better part Of a month
before they attracted any particular
attention outside the congregation.
They had not been lacking in fervor,
nor in earnest endeayor on the part Of
the astorp and his fellow workers, but
the church was not widely Known and
the news Of the meetings had been
slow to penetrate beyond the immedI-
ate neighborhood.
1t was stray item in one Of the
newspapers that came to the notice of
that ever.present class that is so ready
to come TO scoff and remain to pray"
One or two of this sort dropped around
one night and passed the word along
the next day. From that time on the
crowds that gathered in the little edl
fee grew steadily larger until more
were turned away than could be accom-
modated. Many of these, Of course,
were openly flippant. More, perhaps,
were Indifferent, but it was easy to
see within fortnight that the infiu-
ence Of the sermons and the exhorta-
tons was being felt.
The pastor Of the Spring street
church was young, but his ability was
not more to be doubted than his sin
certify. He was not without common
sense, either, and while hc rejoiced
at the sight Of larger congregations
he did not deceive himself with any be-
lief that curiosity was only a
casual factor in bringing this about.
He had had just such experiences
before, and though he meant to
take advantage Of every opportunity
for good that offered itself, he realized
that his work had been made all the
harder for him because Of the newcom.
ers. The thing that concerned him
most was the mood in which his hear
ers left, not the mood in which they
they came.
Two weeks, perhaps, had passed be-
fore the minister noticed an uncouth
man who sat every might in the same
place. His clothing was rough, his
person had suffered from neglect, and
his gaze was more often sidelong than
direct, especially when 1t was bent to.

there was something in his appearance
that attracted attention and. almost
unconsclously, the preacher began 10
speak as he would II there had been
no other than this man In the audi
forum. 1t was not long before the
man himself became aware Of this, but
although he often seemed uneasy he
was as regular in his attendance as
ever.
One night the man got uncertainty
to his feet and made his way to the
altar rail. He knelt there for TIME

The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1906-03-20

Sometime ago Gov. Broward took
occasion to indulge in a fling at the
state press by referring to editors
who sell editorial at so much an inch,
with sentiment thrown in. This was
holly resented by some members of
the press, but, well knowing that all
honorable professions and societies
have a small proportion of unworthy
members, and knowing also that the
best men in the world sometimes
make hasty utterances in an unguard-
ed moment, which they do not mean
and would glad recall if they could,
We published an article in the COVER
nor's defence.
But in the governors speech in
Jacksonville on the 3rd Of this month
he took occasion 10 again denounce
the press Of the state in broad and
sweeping terms and make charges
which are not only wholly incapable
Of proof, but which are wholly untrue.
But, taking all that he has said
about the members Of the state press
as being true as gospel, even then,
their records viii stand by COM
parison with that Of Gov. Broward.
For instance: We know Of no mem

Der of the state press who has ever
openly set at defiance the laws of
the United States and gloried in the
act This Gov. Broward did in his
Cuban fillIbustering schemes.
We know Of no member of the state
press who has continuously ignored
the laws of his state.
This Gov. BrOward is doing by re-
fusing obedience to Chapter 5245,
Acts of 1903, which requires the trus-
tees of the Internal Improvement
Fund, of which Gov. BrOward is chair
man, to turn over all monies in the
hands Of said trustees to the state
treasurer, to be placed to the credit
Of the various counties to be used in
the construction of hard roads.
We have never heard of any mem
Der Of the state press taking money
appropriated by the legislature for a
specific purpose and spending it ac-
cOrdlng to the dictates of his own
sweet will This Gov Broward is
now doing by taking the money ap-
propriated by the legislature of 1903,
to construct hard roads in the sew

eral counties, and expending II IN the
construction of dredges with winch 10
cut bitches into the Everglades.
There is no instance on record
where a member of the state press
has ever set a decision OF any court
at defiance. This Gov. BroWard Is
doing by spending the peoples mon
ey on his Utopian project of drain
ing the Everglades in the face of the
decision of the United States court
that the act which constituted the
Drainage Commission is null and void.
These last mentioned acts OF Gov.
Broward are committed, too, at a
time when he is under his solem-
oath to obey the constitution and
laws of the state of Florida and the
constitution and laws of the United
States.
Those who live in glass houses
should not throw stones" and the
members of the state press can COM
pare records with that Of Gov. Bro
ward seven days in the week, the year
round, without danger Of suffering
by the comparison.
