The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1907-06-20
The Convention
and the Cause.

The good roads convention of 1907
has adjourned sine die and the dele
gates who came to the Deep Water
have departed for their homes. If
they feel that the work of the cOnven-
ton was hampered through lack of
proper attendance We feel sure that
they will not attribute this to any
lack of enthusiasm among the advo-
Gates of their cause in Escambia
county and We hope that they were
pleased with the attention given them
by the citizens of Pensacola
There is no question but that the
action of the recent legislature put "a
damper on the good roads interests
throughout the state and this was
doubtless, in a measure, responsible
for the poor attendance upon the con-
vention just adjourned in this city,
but for this the people of Pensacola
are not responsible. Preparations
had been made for the entertainment
of a large number of visitors, but when
it was realized that the attendance
upon the convention would be small
nothing that had been planned in ad-
vance. for the visitors was abandoned
and We believe that the few delegates
who have been our guests FOR the
past few days will bear us out in the
statement that Pensacola did all in
her power to make their stay pleasant
and profitable
The question of better roads IS not
dead, nor is it sleeping. 1t is a live
question and. in the words of the
Wauchula Telegraph, 1t is a question
that will never be settled until il is
settled right" The fight must be
carried on and we believe that this
organization is the proper channel
through which to make this fight.
The convention at Ocala next year
should prepare a bill to be presented
to the legislature on which every one
can unite and when this is done The
Journal will be found among its most
ardent advocates and we believe that
Escambia cOuntys delegation in the
legislature will give it their enthu-
siastic support.
