The wisdom of such a measure may
be seriously questioned. If dogs are
a nuisance on the public streets at
any time it is during the day time.
At night after business is suspended
and the streets comparatively desert

Keep It
Before The People.

Mr.. Bryan'S COmmoner cites several
important issues on which the Re-
publican party has taken a position,
or rather failed to take a position, and
asks Democrats everywhere TO assist
in keeping before the people the posi-
ton or Mr.. Taft's party on those ques-
tons. Among those Issues as discuss
ed and acted upon by the Republican
convention are the following:
The plank providing for the election
of U. S. senators by the people was
defeated by a vote of S66 nays to ia
yeas.
The plank providing that campaign
managers publish from time to time
during the campaign" the names of
all contributors and the amounts con-
tributed or promised, and the amount
and purpose of all disbursements, and
to whom paid, was defeated by a vote
of $50 nays to "a yeas.
The plank providing for LaFollette's
plan for the physical vauation of all
railroads as a basis for the fixing of
railroad rates was defeated by a vote
of 917 nays to SIS yeas.
The entire minority report offered
by Representative Cooper of Wiscon-
sin, and embodying Senator LaFol-
lette's ideas generally, was defeated
by vote of $50 nays to % yeas.

Why Should Alleged
IllegalVotesBe Investigated?

The Journal has received the follow
ing letter which deserves both publi-
cation and reply:
Cottage Hill, Fla. June %. 1905
Editor Pensacola Journal:
Referring to the proposition OF Mr..
Kehoe to Mr.. Mays: AS the Jourpal
endorses the same, presumably from
a moral standpoint, can IL tell its read
ers wherein there's more cause for
contesting the choice by a majority of
two, than had 1t been two thousand?
II there were illegal votes in the
second primary, were they not in the
first, and were they not known, and
why was the point not raised?
Had Mr.. Mays's majority been 200
instead of two, would this proposition
have been made2 Or had the major
ity of two been for Mr.. Kehoe instead
of for Mr.. Mays, would The Journal
have advocated a sitting of the pri-
maries with a view to seeking and
correcting any illegal voting?
The>public press should be and is,
a molder of public opinion, and
through the columns of The Journal
of some months ago, the writer learn
ed to think. well of Mr.. Mayes, but to
one who has ever learned the A-B-C
seems childish.
Next to a standpatter, a good quit
ter enjoys the esteem of the people.
If there's really anything in this
game but the possibility of Mr.. Mays's
slender majority being set aside and
Mr.. Kehoe counted in, it remains for
The Journal to show il up
IL X is visible on the face, the
writer is from Missouri.
Yours,
w. S. REEVE.
We are glad of an opportunity to
answer the above letter, because it
indicates, if not an honest desire for
information, a least lamentable nm
familiarity with or misunderstanding
of the policies of The Journal and the
motives which actuate it Answering
Mr. Reeves questions seriatim, The
Journal is pleased to say that in its
opinion
There is no difference at all, except
in the number. between a majority of
two illegal votes and majority of
two thousand illegal votes. 1t is not.
however, assumed by anyone, so far
as We, know, that as many as two
thousand illegal votes were cast; and
had either candidate received a ma
jerity of 1000 votes. the number of
illegal votes cast for either one or
both candidates would probably not
have affected the result. even could
they he located and thrc~n out.
II there were Illegal votes in the
second primary IL is quite likely that
there were also Illegal votes in the
FIRST, hut The Journal never heard the
charge made nor do We think anyone
suspected it until after the second pri-
mary. The point raised by Mr.. Reeve
is, however, on a par with conten-
ton that because a bank cashier stole
money last year and was not found
out he ought TO be permitted TO steal
money this year when he is found
out.
The next question is a singular ques
ton indeed for any honest and intel
ligent reader of The Journal TO ask
Had the majority of two been for
Mr.. Kehoe instead of for Mr.. Mays
would The Journal have advocated 3
sitting of the primaries W.

THAW TAKES EXCEPTIONS TO
COMMISSIONERS COMMENT
Says Hand Is Wrong In Putting Dice
Throwing for Money In Class
with Golf and Base
ball

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, Aug. 27.-
Harry K. Thaw made the following
statement today after reading the opin-
ion of Commissioner Hand in the pro-
ceedings for the removal Of District
Attorney Jerome, who Is opposing
Thaw's fight for liberty:
81 agree with Mr.. Hands decision IN
favor of Jerome and think that on the
whole public sentiment will support 1t.
I'm his decision Mr.. Hand expresses
certain opinions which seem to me mis-
taken, but two remarks that appear
regrettable don't affect District Attor-
ney Jerome. Mr.. Hand might condone
throwing dice for money, but his COM
ment that to rebuke that deed is to
indict q very large portion of the COM
munity who take part In the games OF
billiards, bridge whist, golf, baseball
and every other popular recreation
known to the people of every ciVflized
land will surely shock the best people
of the community.
"I have many friends who play bill
lizards, and / know that they don't bet
upon the game; that they indulge in 1t
purely as a recreation, with no thought
of gambling. Bridge whist Is never
played in public for money. If my own
experience over many links counts for
anything, not one man in q hundred
plays golf for money. have attended
more than a hundred baseball games
and found that my own and my neigh
bors' interest came from the playing of
the game itself. Were it otherwise pro-
fessional baseball would become a
farce. Mr.. Hand cannot be familiar
with this spirit of amateur baseball"

BENZ0ATE DANGEROUS
IN FOOD, SAYS WILEY
Tries Both Forms of Preservative on
Poison Squads and Condemns
Them as Harmful and
Useless

WASHINGTON Aug. 27-"In the in
terests of health both benzoic acid and
benzoate OF soda should be excluded
from foods"
This is the conclusion reached by
DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, chief of the
bureau Of chemistry of the department
Of agriculture, after a prolonged inves-
tigation to determine the effect upon
the human system of these preserva-
tives. He tried the chemicals on his
''poison squad"
The preservatives produce very Sc
rious disturbance of the metabolic
functions, attended with injury to d.
gestion and health. 1t is pointed out
that these symptoms were produced
upon healthy individuals receiving
food and living under proper sanitary
conditions.
''It is only fair to conclude, there
fore,'' says DR.. Wiley, that under
similar conditions of administration of
these preservatfves in the case of
weaker systems or less resistant con-
ditions of health much more serious
and lasting injury would be produced"
DR. Wiley believes that there Is not
a single article of food which has been
preserved by means of these preserva-
tives, such as cider, grape juice, mince-
meat, jelly, jams, catsup, preserves,
etc., which cannot be preserved and
offered to the consumer in perfect con-
dition without the aid Of any chemical

TWO BALTIM0REANS HEARD
ANNlS BOAST OF AFFAIR
May Come Forward to Testify In Be-
half of Captain Hams When
Murder Case Comes
to Trial

BALTIMORE, Aug. H-The I'M
named New York lawyer who in news
paper interviews yesterday stated that
William e. Annis, who was killed by
Captain Hams, boosted in his presence
of his relations with the wife of Cap
tain Hams and threatened to kill the
latter, was in baltimore today partly
on business connected with the Hams
case.
The attorney withholds his name, he
said, at the request of Hams counsel,
as he has no personal objection to re-
vealing his identity. He said today
that he had seen two Baltimoreans
who were in one of the clubs in New
York city on the evening In which he
declared that Annis made the alleged
remarks. He said one was an army
officer and the other a minister of the
gospel. Both, he added, had assured
him they would come forward and tes-
tify as to what they said they heard If
their services were needed.
NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-Hains Will
probably be placed on trial early in
October, according to statement made
by District Attorney Darrin today.
Mr.. Darrin i'd he had not decided
as to whether or not he would place
Mrs Hams on the stand. The district
attorney said that If he becomes con-
WINGED that either the captain or his
brother are not sound mentally before
the date set for trial he will have a
commission in lunacy examine them to
determine whether to go on with the
trial or have either or both Of them
placed in an institution for the insane.
