Where Reform is Needed.

Editor Pensacola Journal:
If you viii be so kind as to spare
me the space in your paper 1 would
like to speak few words to the pub
lie. We are residing in Pensacola and
1 know there is not a single Pensa-
colian who is not proud of this grand
old city by the sea. Pensacola In the
past two years has built up at a rate
that is perfectly astonishing, consid-
ering the age of the city and the Ions
period of years in which she has laid
silent with no growth to speak of, but
Pensacola has started now and it is
not going to even wait on the Panama
canal. We are going to go to work
with vim and determination and
build up city that will be well able
to handle the great increase of traf1c
which Pensacola will of a surety Sc
cure at that period. But we have
many different things to consider and
to rearrange along with the growth OF
our future metropolis of West Florida.
Can we as loyal, God fearing pub.
lie. knowing right from wrong, allow
our fair city to rise from a small city
to mighty one still enclosing within
its confines one of the worst districts
Of crime to be found in this part oil
the south OF course there Is not a
single resident of this city who is
not aware of the section to which
make reference. AS we are all well
aware there are portions of this city
through which an honest woman can
not pass alone at night with safety.
Pensacola Is now small and this mat
ter could be very easily adjusted at
tie present time but if we wait Until
like 0her large cities, It is too late
do not hesitate to say that we will
have in our midst tenderIoin district
beside which those in the average city
viii sink into insignifcance. There
is no other word for IT. But this we
must clear out or in the future God
in his righteous wrath, will visit upon
Pensacola a judgment beside which
the fate of Sodom and Gomorrah in
Bible times, will seem Insignificant
We have had mayor after mayor. coun
! ell after council, but none have done
the least thing to clear away this DARK
lining to the silver cloud of fair Pensa
cola's future. But let us live with the
hopes that with the next mayor and
council things may be CHARGED and
Pensacola cleansed as far as possible
of this section of crime. Pensacola
without this drawback can, and un
doaotedly viii, become the fairest city
| of the south
Thanking you for your kind atten
ton and asking you to give this mat
ter your attention Very respectfully

does the Record lay the blame for this
condition to the fact that there is no
railroad expert on the commission?
Does the Record believe that had a
railroad expert been on the commits
sion all the time this same condition
of affairs would not be existing now?
Certainly the Record will not hold the
alleged ignorance of the railroad COM
missiorers responsible for the present
deplorable conditions.
The Journal does not deny the fact
that the services of railroad expert
might be of some assistance to the
commission, but if that body Is uncer-
tain about any intricate point in con-
nection with the operation of rail-
road it has the power to secure the SER
vices OF such a man, and this without
having him member of the board,
and with a full vote on the proposed
rulings of the commission.
II the railroads were such law-abid-
ing, peaceful and innocent little
creatures that some papers would have
Us believe, then there would be no oc-
easion for the work of a railroad COM
mission. The duties OF this commits
sion are to see that the railroads COM
ply with the laws, and deal fairly with
the people in their business relations
with them.
The Record asks il The Journal
would employ turpentine chopper to
take charge of its linotype machines.
No, and neither would s. railroad COM
pany employ turpentine chopper to
run its engines, or dispatch its trains,
or to do the brain work Of its general
Offices
But the railroad commissioners are
not confronted with the proposition of
managing railroads, nor do they re-
quire as much knowledge of railroad
matters for the proper performance of
their duties as one who undertakes to
to furnish the brain work for the sue
cessful operation of great system. 1t
is but natural to suppose that if the
state selected three men for this COM
mission from the employees of the rail-
roads they would lean towards the
railroads in their rulings. 1t matters
not how honorable they may be, their
former associations could not help but
influence them in their official actions.
Man is only human after all. and
where such great questions are at is.

THE MILEAGE GRAFT.
Savannah News.

Representative John Wesley Gaines
of Tennessee performed good service
the other day when he arose in his
place in the house and denounced the
mileage graft of members of congress.
4 want to say" said Mr. Gaines. that
l am opposed to this twenty-cents-a-
mile proposition, and / want to state
that if the amount is not limited to
actual travelling expenses win refuse
to accept more than my actual trav-
cling expenses"
II is not likely that congress viii
take any action on Mr. Gaines sugges-
ton A majority of the members are
too eargerly chasing the almighty dol
lar to turn loose any graft they have
once got their hands upon. AS a mat
ter of fact, they are continually plan
ming to increase their income, perquis-
lites and comforts in Washington at
the public expense With the increase
of congressional salaries from s., 600 TO
s., 500 year a number of congressman
will have incomes of $4,000 or better
per annum from the public treasury.

clerk hire, postal frank, free seeds.
| free public documents and other things
with which the congressman have pro
vided themselves out of the. bounty OF
Uncle Sam.
The mileage fee was instituted
years ago, when many of the congress
men were poor, when the salary was
insignificant as compared with the
present princely sum and when travel
was difficult and costly. One of its
chief purposes was to render the
members free from obligation to the
Transportation companies. But the
members worked" the railroads for
free passes, and put the mileage into
their pockets. Travel now costs al
average of about three cents mile
and the members put into their pockets
a profit of about seventeen cents fol
every mile travelled, even after fires
passes have been abolished. Is there
any good reason why the governmn1
should pay these $7,500-a-year gentle
men profit of seventeen cents a mil,
for travelling to and from bushes:
they are so bountifully paid to do? TX
allow the actual travelling expense,
would seem to be extremely liberal
in view of all of the facts.
Il Our congressman are doubtless tn.
best paid set of public officials in tn,
world. Their duties are of mos
pheasant character, requiring onl!
about five months of the twelve TO

terially interfere with the private en-
terprises of the members. There ma,
