MORE ROOM is NEEDED

conditions existing there with the
view that they build an addition or
take some steps to afford more room
for the accommodation of prisoners.
The inspection was made in the
forenoon, Judge Beggs, Chairman Mer-
rift and Commissioners Roberts and
Steward composing the party. They
found the jail neatly and clearly
kept, but the prisoners crowded so
that it was both uncomfortable and
unhealthy. AS a result Of the inspec-
ton it is probable that some steps
will be taken by the commissioners
within a short time to afford more
room in the Jail.
For several years the number OF
prisoners confined in the jail have
been far beyond the space provided,
but the financial condition of the
county has so far preventative board

Commissioners Visit and

More room is required in the county
Jail than is now afforded for the ac-
eommodation of the prisoners con-
fined there. This was clearly ascer-
tanned yesterday morning by Judge
Beggs and the members of the Board
of County Commissioners, who paid
a visit to the Jail for the purpose OF
inspecting it and ascertain if some
relief could not be afforded.
The visit to the Jail was made
upon request of Judge Beggs, who had
the sheriff request the board at its
meeting last Tuesday night, that they
accompany him TO the place to make
an inspection, the purpose being 10

Want All to Vote.

Mr.. Mcmillan stated that he de-
sired that every man qualified TO
vote do SO in the coming election. but
insisted that the list he presented be
taken by the board and the registra-
ton books revised accordingly.
Mr. Schad contended that the
names stricken from the list by the
supervisor of registration alone
should be considered, but Mr.. McMil-
Ian again stated that the supervisor
had declined to strike OH many names

Richard Stein, the negro who. about
ten days ago, resisted arrest and then
assaulted Police OFFICER Minor8 when
the latter was endeavoring to take
him into custody, was yesterday tried
and convicted in the Criminal Court
on the charge of carrying concealed
weapons and aggravated assault.

Protest Continued.

Mr.. Schad continued to protest in
the accepting of the list He said
that the list contained names Of some
men personally known to him, and
he was not acquainted In many of
the precincts, and that these men are
today at their homes, not having eth
er died or removed. Consuming, he
said that these names would be pub
lished, and that while some would be
restored others might not see a paper,
while the fishermen taken from the
list might be at sea when the date
arrived for them to appear before the
board and ask to be restored, and as
result many men would lose their
vote on Oct. 1.
Mr., Mcmillan again stated that a.
thorough canvass had been made, but
where Mr.. .Schad or others knew that
errors had been made that they could
be corrected. He called for a vote
upon adopting the list as submitted
by himself

Legal Advice.

The commissioners then called for
legal advice, and Judge Reeves and
County Attorney Pope Eeese respond
ed. Judge Reeves gave it as his opin-
Jon that the books of the supervisor
of registration should be accepted as
being, prima facie, correct, and should
SO be taken by the commissioners,
except where it is shown to the sat
isfaction of the commissioners that
he has not stricken from the books
the names of persons dead or removed.
Then the. board has the authority, as
the revising power, to strike such
names from the list.

More Legal Advice.

In order to further enlighten the
board as to its duties and powers,
Judge Reeves stated that the books
should be purged of all spurious
names. The law contemplated the reg
Gstration officer making mistakes, and
for that reason had provided a rem
edy for those whose names had been
enormously erased. That recourse
was in publishing names of all whose
names had been removed, and com
polling the commissioners to meet on
a certain date thereafter to restore
the names of parties whose names had
enormously been removed

dan and striking off the names pre-.
scented by him. He asserted that it
would be doing a large number of
voters an injustice, adding he had
shown Mr.. Mcmillan the names of
parties contained on his list who are
today residing in Pensacola, and are
qualified TO vote. TIE take the names
OF these parties from the registration
books would probably prevent them
from voting, as they might not notice
that they had been disqualified, and
would not realize it until the day Of
the election

Service Is Declined.

President Mcmillan stated that the
list had been presented TO Supervisor
Scott with the request that the names
be removed, and that under the law
he is compelled to do SO, but that he
had refused.
Yes, and why did he refuse to do
SOP" asked Mr. Schad, adding For
the simple reason that it was shown
TO him that your list contained the
names of people who are alive and
living here today"

Called For a Vote.

Commissioner Clopton moved that
the commissioners accept the list, as
well as the list submitted by Super
visor Scott, and to proceed to revise
the registration books, striking from
the books the names Of all parties
contained in these two lists, except
ing those whom the commissioners
themselves knew were alive and in
the county.
This motion was seconded and car
ried, Chairman Merritt remarking:
There are whole lot of good men
who will lose their vote by this move. !"
The Work Commenced.
The commissioners then settled
down to work, it ,hen beng 9 O'Clock,
and started making list of those
whose names are to be stricken from
the list President Mcmillan and Mr.
Schad both remained and consulted
with the commissioners as to whether
parties had removed or were dead, and
by this means much of the work was
completed, the city precincts being fin
ished and some of the country ones
Owing to the fact that the work
could not be completed within one
night, and that some of the commits
sioners could, not attend meeting to-
night. the board adjourned until Sat

War and the Men Who Fight.

Take him first; he is worse injured. :"
"Old man. how many hits did our turret
make?" These were the last words that
came from the lips of Lieut.. Goodrich
as he lay mortaly hurt after the ex-
plosion on the battleship Georgia. He
had been in command in the turret
where the accident occurred.
His men were about to break the re-
cord for fast firing and craftsmanship
when a flash from the back fire Of one
Of the great guns ignited the powder
in the arms OF one of the gun crew.
Nine were killed; all the rest were
badly injured.
1t was when the wounded were being
removed that Lieut. Goodrich showed
the stuff of which the American navy
is made by his anxiety first for his
men, then for his parents and then for
the record There was no word for
himself; no note Of pain; no touch of
selhshness His last thoughts were OF
his comrades, his home. his ship.
War in itself may be hell; to fight
to the death may be accursed sin. but
there are records OF wars among the
angels. and heaven has its militant hosts
The soldiers of the Lord are doubtless
his CHOSEN ones. mere on eaTln they are
the bravest and the best.
Lieut.. Goorich's turret had fired nine
shots and had made nine hits in eigh-
teen minutes. His mind was fired with
the pride of achievement. and his heart
was full of love of his men who dared
death with him for the glory OF the
service. The feeling that inspired
them was only less tense in friendly
rivalry than if in actual battle In
either would come the personal factor
Of bitterness and hate; the ruling force
in either case would be national pride
and personal integrity
After battering the Spanish ships to
pieces on the coast of Cuba, the same
men who had manned the guns to shoot
the Spaniards to death manned the
/ boats to save them from drowning. II

WITH THE EDITORS
Mr.. Bryan's Latest.

The Washington Post Qnd) takes
this view of Mr.. Bryans latest pro-
nunciamento:
Mr.. Bryan now insists that the
democratic party is the only mechanism
that can regulate the railroads. In
his latest pronunciamento he craftily
refrains from describing the demo-
cratic party. or giving any clue to
what 1t is. He does not betray its
hiding place. nor does he indicate by
wlsat marvellous process 1t viii regu-
late the railroads while remaining it
self the most unregulated institution
on American soil. lie merely describes
II as the democratic party, and lets
it go at that
IF the uncanny monsters called
government ownership and that other
shapeless and uncomfortable creation
called the democratic party, should
meet and grapple, it would be up TO Mr.
Bryan to separate them at the risk OF
his life; for he is responsible for them
both. And there are indications that
they are likely TO clash"

in Central park preach an eloquent
sermon on the ministry OF parks TO
crowded city life. A little girl lies
asleep in a sheltered, leafy nook of the
park. and near her Is crouched a big,
patient and contented ST. Bernard
watching his little mistress Among
the trees is a pool and along its cir
cular rim are boys and girls sailing
their little boats ON a grassy plat. in
deep shade. Is a large group Of women
and children. with here and there a
baby carriage or a nurse carrying her
little charge. And among large trees
is a great audience Of men, women and
children, on benches and on the grass
listening to the Sunday afternoon band
concert. New York's Central park in
cludes about so city blocks and its es-
timated value is about S200.000,000,
Fortunately this finest possession of
New York, as well as the finest park
of the world. was projected about 90
years ago. and owes its existence to
some wise man who wouldn't wait so
years, nor leave to another generation
the honor which now belongs to him
and the men who worked with him..
