Protect the Birds.
friends.

The PILOT has been urged to aid in
stopping the indiscriminate slaughter
of other than game birds in our groves,
and on the water front. The laws of
Florida are amply sufficient, if en-
forced, to protect these birds, and it
is very probable if the killing of them
is persisted IN, some one will be hailed
before the courts therefor. ST h
song birds as are in our yards and
groves, and the looms, pelicans, and
gulls, that abound on our water front,
are not only pleasing to the eye, but
of great value to those who have
homes here, as their being abundant
in the neighborhood adds much to
the value of the property. To kill
them is no better than to destroy
others property in any other shape,
and is both unlawful and unneigh-
borly. The law of Florida says:
"Section 1863, r. S. No person
shall within the State of Florida kill
or catch or have in his possession,
living or dead, any wild bird other
than a game bird, nor shall purchase,
offer or expose for sale any such wild
bird after it has been killed or caught.
No part of the plumage, skin or body
of any bird protected by this section
shall be sold or had in possession for
sale. For the purpose of this act the
following only shall be considered
game birds: The Anatidae, com
monty known as swans, geese, brant,
and river and sea-ducks; the Railli-
dae, commonly known as rails, coots,
mudhens, and gallinules, the Semi
colae, commonly known as shore
birds, plovers, surf birds, snipe, wood
cock, sand pipers, tatlers, and cur
LEWIS; the Gallinae, commonly known
as wild turkeys, grouse, prairie
chickens, pheasants, cartridges and
quails, also turtle doves and wild
pigeons, and robins. No person shall
within the State of Florida take or
needlessly destroy the nests or eggs
of any wild bird, nor shall have such
nests or eggs in his or her possession.
Any person violating the provisions
of. this section shall be liable to fine
of five dollars for each offence, and
an additional fine of five dollars for
each bird, living or dead, or part of
bird, or nest and eggs possessed in
violation of this section, or to i'm
prisonment for ten days"
The looms belong to the family
Colymbidae; the pelicans to the
family Pelicanidae; the gulls and
terms to the family Laridae; all of
which as shown by the above extract
from the statutes it is unlawful to
kill.

1908.

With this issue the PILOT begins
the year 1908. 1t wishes it's readers
a Happy New Year,, and that it
may be fruitful of good things to
them all. The preliminary work
that has been done here in 1907 is
prophetic of great changes to the
bay country in 1908, and all can
begin the new year with a we'll
grounded faith that it will be a
marked one in the history of the Bay,
giving it, Through railway connections,
such start toward the betterment
of conditions and otherwise, as many
have longed for years to see.
Though the panic has caused a
slowing up in the business in which
this section is mostly interested,
that is naval stores and lumber, yet
our people on the whole are much
better off than their compatriots of
the North. and have very much to
be thankful for. Let one and all
begin the new year with a determi-
nation to make St. Andrews Bay the
easiest of access, the safest, and best
harbor on the Gulf Coast, uniting in
all efforts to advance the prosperity
of the Bay Country far beyond the
fondest dreams of it's best and oldest
friends.

SeuPrilouS Post Cards.

A news item reciting the sentence
ing to two years Imprisonment of a
man who mailed a post card contain
ing scurrilous and defamatory lam
guage, causes the PILOT to suggest
to the party or parties at st Andrew,
who have been engaged in such work
that in thus violating the U. S. postal
laws they are treading on dangerous
ground. Mailing such a card to an
individual incurs penalty Of not
over five years Imprisonment, or not
over $4,000 fine. Rather a risky and
possibly expensive pleasure.

Capt Hands latest creation is un-
doubtedly the fastest launch on thu
Bay. On her first trial trip oves :.
measured course last Sunday morn
ing she developed speed of eleven
knots, covering the course in FIVE
minutes and fifty seconds. The PEI
formance is very gratifying to boz
builder and owner. Mr. Masker is
contemplating the installation of :;
more powerful motor of a later type
with which he expects to attain Il
speed of fifteen miles or better. The
Sharpshooter is one of the prettiest
as well as the speediest motor crafts
on the Bay. Her seats, coaming, and
deck are finished in the natural colors
of the wood, the coaming being made
of alternate pieces of light and dark
cypress. The deck trimmings are all
highly polished nickel. The hull
above water is white and the under
body green, making very pleasing
combination. Her motor is an Eclipse,
two cylinder, two cycle, Jump spark
machine, turning a three bladed
propeller of twenty inches diameter
over seven hundred revolutions per
minute. The motor is rated by the
company at eight horse power.

The Mails.

Again there is no mail in this NOR
ming. 1t is becoming a recognized
fact that the Post Office Department
is perfectly impotent IN the matter
of maintaining any kind of service
in this section of the country, and
the only hope of relief is the compile
ton of the railroad. Until that time
the people will continue to suffer as
they have been doing during the
past six months or more. Direct
appeals to our congressman should
help some, but even that may not
wake up the sleeping officials.

Complimentary Trip.

Capt Barrow of the Tarpon very
handsomely entertained the Panama
City people last evening by making
a stop here on his way south bound,
and taking to st Andrew all who
wished to attend the entertainment
at that place. Some fifteen accepted
the invitation and were the guests
of the genial captain en- route. They
desired that the PILOT more fully
than they could, should thank him
for this pleasing courtesy.

The PILOT wishes the new town all
success and bettered conditions in
many ways. The only objection it
ever had to the incorporation was
the attempted taking into its boun-
diaries of some 300 acres of land, out
of 800, that belonged to parties OPP
posed to it's being included, and the
further fact that this large acreage
is about all wild land and holds but
six qualified white Voters only one of
which requested this incorporation ;
and the further fact that this large
territory has no logical connection
with the village of st Andrew.
Whether the municipality will event
ually be able to R5>d CHS territory
81. t-tha -n-;~;' o, :, -
the scant population it contains, and
in view of the fact that the owners
of over four fifths of the land are OPP
posed to having it thus taken in, is a
legal question that is yet to be
settled.
The Statutes of Florida provide
that:
"When any incorporated town Cor
city containing less than one hun
dred and fifty qualified electors shall,
owing to extent of territory, have en-
braced within the limits any lands
which may from distance or other
cause be virtually or cOmmensurately
excluded from the benefits of such
municipal organization, it shall be
lawful for any such owners of such
lands or three fOurthS of them desir-
ing to have the same excluded from
such corporation limits and jurisdic-
ton, to apply by petition to the cir
cult court in and for the county in
which said incorporated town is
situated, setting forth in said petition
the limits of such incorporated town
as then existing and the ground of
his or their objection to be included
within the limits of such corporation /;
whereupon the circuit court shall
order notice of said application to be
served upon the mayor of said town
or city and appoint day of hearing
of such application.
If upon the hearing of said appli-
cation the said court shall sustain
the said objection, the said tract or
tracts of land shall be SO excluded.
Such petition may be heard and de-
termined by said court in term, time
or vacation, and any question of fact
may be determined by said court
without a jury"

BE CAREFUL.

The time for the politicians t swarm has arrived and they have be- gun to lay siege on the headquarters of the Farmers Union. Some of the State officials are getting letters ask ing them to use their best efforts to secure the endorsement by the Union of certain candidates
 Gollyi Aren't the politicians blind? We have been telling them all the time that the Farmers Union would not endorse any man for any political office. and that if any candidate wanted the support of the members of the Farmers Union, he had better not ask the endorsement of the organ ization. The fact that he asked the organization to endrose him will cause hundreds of our members to vote against him. In other words, the boys are determined to make the people understand that the Farmers Union will not go into politics.
 The old politician can not beg, per suade. scare or bulldoze us from our position. There are a few men who will be candidates for office that no doubt the masses of the Farmers Union members will be favorable to, but if such a man intimates that he wants the endorsement of the Farm CTS Union, he will go down the pike with the blackest eye ever toted by a political pugilist-Union News.
