Panama City pilot., 1907-11-14

AS soon as st Andrew becomes a
city no hog will be allowed to walk
on Commerce street unless properly
clothed, muzzled, and its voice tuned
to a minor key.
One important Improvement pro-
posed for the new city of st Andrew,
to be paid for by non resident tax
payers, is 4 costly, charming, and
commOdious lock up for the sole
benefit of imbibers of pine top.
AS A. J. Gay is the owner of over
a third Of the land that tits proposed
to incorporate IS st Andrew, it would
be quite the proper caper for him TO
remove there and receive his portion
of the Offices, say mayor, treasurer,
and police Judge.
Millville must not feel grieved be
yond consolation over its not being
included in the new Incorporation
scheme. The noise Of the saws and
the whistling of the locomotives was
too much Of a sleep destroyer to admit
Of its being connected officially with
the quietude of st Andrew. Other
wise that territory would have been
taken in.
G.. NJ. West, r. l. Mckenzie, and
F. NJ. GoOdsOn represented Panama
Citv al tho meeting held in Wares
Hall on Tuesday evening. They had
been invited by prominent st Andrew
citizens to be present, though after
the delivery of Mr. DrummOnds ulti-
matum in opening the meeting they
were at loss to know for what pur-
pose their presence was required.
Some of Panama Citv's we'll wishers
in St Andrew eYcges+ that when we
incorporate wa can t0'-' in Miliville
and east Of there, 70 make our limits
equal to theirs. Why not extend
Panama City's limits to include Par
ker, Galloway, Cook. Wetappo, and
possibly Rlountstown, in Calhoun
county? If we gre going into the
land grabbing business we might as
we'll bag the whole country.
If St Andrew Wi5Ic5 10 do the
square thing in the incorporation deal
why not appoint a committee consist
ing of three men from there and an
equal number from Panama City,
with possibly some gentleman from
outside either place, to decide as to
what would be just and equitable
division of territory. That would
eliminate the one man rule or ruin
element from the proposition.

think it just as we'll to keep cool
and let st Andrew set the pace. She
is doing most of the voting now but
two years from now Panama City
will do the most of it, and she will
be high headed little yearling. She
will want water works, electric lights,
fine school houses and all the trim
mings, and if the pace gets a little
lively for the st Andrew end of the
village she cant kick.
To a man up the country it looks as
though Panama City will get the best
end of the bargain in the long run.
If st Andrew gets herself yoked up
with Panama City she may not get
loose when she wants to.
Yours truly

firmation of the statement made by
the latter.
A vote was then taken to voice the
opinion of the meeting upon Mr.
Drummonds proposition, which re-
ceived out of the 66 men present 81
votes in the affirmative, three out of
the remaining majority voting in the
negative, the remainder not voting.
Mr. Emmons then proposed that Mr.
Drummond go ahead and prepare the
necessary notices calling for an cleo
ton to decide the question of incor-
poration which was carried, and the
meeting then adjourned.

Editor PILOT:
| am as interested as any one along
this hOre in the growth of st Andrew.
Anything that will better the condi-
tiOns of its citizens 1 will favor
But this movement for incorpora-
ton has mighty queer look to me
as we'll as some others. Who is to
be benefited by it? What are some
1900 acres of wild land belonging to
A. j. Gay, and which he is selling to
settlers who will improve it, taken in
to city for? Who is going to make
a truck farm where all the improve
ments they make will be doubly taxed
to pay for expensive school houses,
side walks, streets, docks, water
plants, acetalyne gas lighting plants,
pounds for shutting up our COWS, pigs,
and horses?
We have got along a goodly number
of years and lived quietly and peace
ably with all mankind with out any
of these things, and could possibly
do it while longer if permitted to.
| am not opposed to the building of a
school house that will accommodate
our children, but such building does
not seem to be big enough for the
promoters of this scheme.
| wonder if the ON decent street
we ever had, made so by the hard
work of that man who had the inter
ests of this place at heart, and worked
for them, and advanced them more
than any one else ever has, our de-
parted friend and good neighbor l..
M. Ware, which has been made almost
impossible, is to be paved by the city
and adjoining property owners when
we are made in to a city? There is
whole lot of things Mr. Editor that |
want my neighbors to think over be-
fore voting upon this matter.
Truly &c.

Editor PILOT:
An interesting item in the last issue
of the PILOT was the call for incor-
porating St Andrew. You did not
state whether Bay Head and Gay
were included, or how they came to
miss Millville, but l notice Panama
City is making vigorous kick,

be readily brought about in the man. ncr prescribed by the constitution it. self for its amendment, inasmucn as too many of the senators themselves were seliishly interested in prcventin , change in the elective machinery; but no such circumstances as this could logically justify the existing movement in the eyes of "strict con structionist." Nevertheless the fact is that under the letter of the constiiu- ton we are violating it's spirit; and the work--it is good.
 How unobscrving are those who look upon the constitution as made of iron, infexible, is nowhere more clearly demonstrated than by the present am bassador from England to this coun try, James Bryce, in his "Amcrican Commonwealth" Nor did the learned gentleman there omit to point out that in it's very nexity and it's ability to meet all emergencies that have yet arisen lies one of the chief virtues in the great instrument. To paraphras' Scripture, the constitution was made for Americans and not Americans fol the constitution.

THOUGHT oIlL WAS IN LOVE
 WITH HIM.
(From Sundays Daily.)

That n number of the residents of Placerita had just grounds for lodging a complaint charging John Kosnig with insanity, was made apparent, ycstcr. day afternoon, at 3 o'clock. when Koe. mig was examined and adjudged insane by the probate court. In his examin- ation he admitted that he had been q resident of the place since 1899. He stated that he fell in love with a l6' year'old girl about two years ago, and that her parents refused to allow her to marry him. Since that time he said that he had paid no further attention to the girl, but farther on in his ex
 animation told the court and the ex
 amining physicians how certain young man, whom he declared was mar, ricd for blind, had kidnapped the girl and had bribcd all the young and handsome men of the community to as
 sist in keeping the young woman away from him, whom nc declared was in constant misery without his company
 He described in graphic language how Q certain stranger in the camp had hypnotized him, n few weeks ago at the instance of some of the residents of the camp, and the suffcrings he en
 dured from the hypnotic spell, which hade him vomit and caused n severe headache for several days. The hyp
 notist, he said. was dressed in a khaki suit, and 1t developed in tho testi
 mony submitted by others that Roe
 mig had threatened to shoot anyone seen in the vicinity wearing this par
 ticular kind of garb. .

REGARDING FOREST RESERVES.

Those who do not thoroughly under stand the operation of the forest re. serves should send to the Forest Re. serve office, Washington, D. C., for n copy of the little volume known as the "Usc Book,' which states clearly who may use timber, how and when it may be obtained. It is not the pur. pose of the government to restrict mining on the reserves, but to care for the timber. that it may not be destroy. cd or wasted. If reserve officials ex. cccd their authority, complaint should be made to the proper officials n, Washington. The Use Book defines the duties of forest reserve officers and all who live upon n reserve, or who own mines thereon, should inform themselves thoroughly ns to tenir in. dividual rights under the law.

Koenig also described how a man named Lamb had occasioncd him untold annoyance for several months by blow ing the bellows of his forge at night time. throwing rocks at his cabin. while hidden in the brush, and cx- citing his dog so badly that the faith fu canine had kept up a continual barking all night keeping him awake. He also admitted having shot at Lamb on three occasions in one night, fail. ing to hit any time.
 IIc also said that several young men of the community had tried to poison him by placing some kind of deadly stun under his door and on his pillows and admitted having threatened to shoot one of his ncighbors. whom h" accused of being guilty of attempting his life.
 Other testimony introduced corrob oratcd the statements of the maniac in almost every particular. and showed bis spells were worst between the first and tenth of every month and that his mind appeared unaffected at other times.
 Kocnig is i0 years of age, and ma tive of Texas. IIc has resided in this Territory since ls9i, and according to his own statement, in Placerta for the past eight years. He concluded his tes- timony by informing the court that he was possessed of a spirit that prompted him to do what was right and take care of himself. He admitted that he got his religion from a paper published in California, but refused to give any further particulars of his religions he lief. On being questioned regarding his possessions he said that hc owned G5 stands of bees and two mining claims, from ono of which some higd grade gold ore was mined. He will h, taken to the Territorial asylum for tho insane, nt Phoenix, today. His bees and other property will be given into the custody of one of his friends by the probate court, pending further dc vclopmcn's in his case.
