TO SUSPEND THE
ALIEN LABOR LAW
Special TO The Journal.

OttOwa, Ont, Feb. 23.-The depart
ment OF labor today is considering a
petition for the suspension of the
Alien Labor Law in order that Ameri-
cans may be allowed TO work in Can
ada in the spring. This action is
asked for because of the scarcity of
labor for railway construction work,
as the contractors cannot import
enough laborers from Great Britain
and other parts of Europe. The ap-
plication is being opposed by several
labor unions. Big pay is offered by
many lines especially in the north
west.

That Stamp Proclamation.

The Tallahassee True Democrat is
very much worried because Governor
Broward will not furnish for publica-
ton an itemiZed statement of the
funds received by him for the carry
ing on of the drainage campaign. The
journal last week attempted to show
where this was a personal, and not a
state matter, but the True Democrat
man can't see it that way. In col
umn editorial he comes back az The
Journal and makes more charges
against the governor and his wrong
doing-Pensacola Journal.

reflect in such times upon the idea that
a paper containing only accounts of the

apt to prove mOnotOnous to the general

Lots of our people will attend
the jamestown Exposition this
summer. This will be a great
show and an education within
itself and will doubtless surpass
former expositions in the way
OF naval displays.
The big circus which was in
winter quarters here will soon
start out on the road again, but
will give a two-day performance
here before taxing their depar
ture. The animals have afford
ed bushels of amusement to the
children of the city during their
stay here. The managers allow
ed the children to vote on names
for two lion cubs, born here last
winter. They appropriate
iy named Macon; and "Geor.

Now every body nearly is will
ling 10 concede the fact that we
have made an enormous crop of
cotton. From the last bureau
report, we are compelled to be-
lieve that the crop will reach
nearly thirteen and one half mil
lion bales. And the price is
holding up remarkably well.
Good cotton will bring IL cents
on this market today and has
been this price for some little
time.
