BAD GRAIN FAMINE
r,HoPs AND HAY BEING USED AS
 FOOD.
sssUsaeoIa suffering For Food For the stock, But Not One Bushel of Grain Can Be
 Purchased.

Pensacola, Fla, Sept. 6-(Special.) J. Following the exhausting of the supply of gasoline. which has caused all launches of the harbor to go out Of commission, Pensacola is now suffering from q. grain famine. Not one bushel of oats or corn can be purchased in the cfty. and the stock is being fed upon chons and hay as substitute. About forty cars of grain shipped from Evans vile and Louisville have gone astray. and although every effort has been made by the railroad company. they cannot be located.
 The shipments. which were for wholesale merchants. were due to ar- rive a week ago, and the non-arrival caused the stocks carried to become ex- hausted Much inconvenience Is being felt. as the stock in the city will suffer from the lack of proper food, and the livery stables and transfer companies. as well as wholesale houses, which keep many head of stock will feel the effects worse. and if the famine continues for any length of time it will result In teamsters being compellel to give the stock only light work each day.
 The wholesale grain houses, which supply merchants in West Florida and nortions of Alabama are receiving s daily complaints from their customers on account of their failure to make shipments to them. but under existing conditions the wholesale dealers cam not be blamed.

 Nations have thier periods or lrrl- tation and paranoia as well as indiVld- uals and I wonder if we are not now going through a paroxysm wherein we gloat over the darts of sarcasm ana shafts of bitterness until it seems that the atmosphere is surcharged with dis- content, and all this in the face of the fact that the whole continent IS plos- soming under Gods smile.
 We cannot wonder if the ranters rant a little about inequalities; there IS no denying that they exist. but we are the authors of the iniquities, the out come of a system inaugurated ana maintained by ourselves. If we look things straight in the face. we must admit that this state of society arises simnlv from the fact that we are im- mersed 'in a spirit of pure selfishness and envy, and glowing with jealousy the most reprehensible passion known to the human race. Now let's get down to fundamentals and make the race better, and awaken the god in1pui- ses that never are aroused In the scolded child-we cannot improve mat ters hy bringing on a fit of the sulks.
