qrnvfnr Dock for PensacoIn

Congressman William B. Lamar, Rep xesentative from the Third Congress sionaI District in Congress, believes that at the coming session of Congress that an appropriation will be made for q craving dock at the Pensacola navy ward The Congressman spent yester- day in the city, coming here for the purpose of obtaining information as to fhe needs of the port, and after con- euIting with parties who could supply the Information, left last night for his home. Before leaving he stated that It Is his firm belief that the next session of Congress will appropriate the amount necessary to build the graving dock at the navy yard to cost more than a million dollars.
 He stated that the sum would have been appropriated at the last session but for the fact that appropriations had already been made for two similar docks at other points. SC the commit tee would not recommend third, es- pecially as it carried with 1t such a large expenditure of money. At this hession, however, he believes that the project will receive a favorable recom- mendation at the hands of the commit tee and the appropriation made by Con- gress.

1t is it's proud boast, that for many
years, the Insurance Department of
this State, annually certifies to the
fact, that it has not ono single con-
tested claim. y It's splendid report
for the year 1905, is well rounded out
in every item which conduces to So
liaity and prosperity. In the lcgi !
lative investigation just closed, no
graft nor extravaganza was even in
ferentially charged as against the
Washington Life It's policies are
models of brcvityi the results as
guaranteed by its policies make its
bonds not only absolute protection
in event of death, but attractive a.
an investment in case of prolonged
life. 1t buys its policies for cash, it
loans substantial sums, taking its
policies as callatteral. 1t allows 80
days in payment of premiums, il
gives automatic paid up insurance
should policy lapse for nonpayment
of premium.
All honor to the Washington Life
and its management. Such manage

ideal as any of which we are aware.
