TOWN ELECTION

Now that the town election of May 25th is drawing near it be- hooves our fellow townsmen to be- gin considering who will accept and be the best persons for council men. There are five to be elected and upon the election much of the future welfare and prosperity of the town depends. No one should he chosen in order to foster his own interests, but all of our people should overlook personal matters and work for the good of our whole people. Let everyone prosper. Foster the industries that bring m )ney into the town. We can do much better with money coming in than with none.
 The necessary qualifications of a councilman are, 21 years of age, a qualified elector and a freeholder residing in the town. and having been a resident for one whole year next preceding his election.
 The other elective offices of the town are, clerk, marshal and super visor of etreets, aud their salaries shall he such as the town council may deem proper. At present the clerk receives monthly compensation of twenty five dol lara.
 The marshal has no fixed salary but may he paid such salary as the council may from time to time order by a resolution. He is dis qualified from holding such office if he holds any county office. The marshal, being elected by virtue of the territorial laws. is not appoint ed by the council. and his election being as high an authority az theirs he is not subject to the orders of the, council, but at present the council can refuse to pay him any salary, and appoint a policeman to perform his duties and pay the latter the salary. It is the duty of such marshal or policeman 10 see to the enforcement of all ordinances of the town.
 The supervisor of streets has the sidewalks to look after and has to collect the street taxes.
 Our town at present has good fire protection, good lights and very fair sidewalks, all of which we hope will be kept up.
 With a good. strong pull together Williams has today a promising future. A. B. c.

Fancied Finance.

Webster gave it as his intention to
finance the ten-Story building for the
American National Bank, should that
institution so desire, buy up all the
improvement bonds of the city, pur-
chase immense tracts of land for
grazing purposes, and bring about 500
head of cattle, which were left of
his herds, to Pensacola and place
them on the range. He had visited all
of the lands for sale. and had about
closed for several large tracts.
However, he needed about so, 900
more acres. and not being able to find
this for sale, had a real estate firm
advertise that it desired to purchase
this amount of land. He was also TO
do many other things In fact, nearly
all of the $3,000,000 which, he said,
had been paid him by Nelson, Morris
& Co., of Chicago, for his range and
cattle in Montana, was TO be invested

Washington, March 1S.-UnleSS the
congress put through some effective
prohibition legislation, the southern
mem bers of the house and senate and
the politicians of the south will de-
mand a prohi ,ition plank in the ma
tional democratic platform and if Mr..
Bryan accedes to their request, he
will gain the solid southern delegation
In the convention. The southern rep
iresentatives in congress are deter
mined that congress shall pass such
legislation as will put an end TO the
notification of state liquor laws by
spreading the charitable mantle OF
interstate commerce over shipments
OF liquor into prohibition states,
there to be secure against interior
ence because interstate commerce is
solely a federal concern.
The senate committee On judiciary
referred to a subcommittee the ques-
ton of constitutionality OF such leg
islation and that subcommittee has
held, by a vote of three to two, that
congress cannot stretch It's control
over interstate CONNER to the ex-
tent of giving the state power over
liquor introduced therein by inter
state commerce processes. That is,
the committee holds that whisky can
be imported from another state into
the dryest section of the most devoted
prohibition state and the federal gov
eminent cant stop It,
The real effectiveness of the pro-
hibition laws depend on giving the
state control of the liquor just as soon
as il gets into the prohibition com
munity.

Was a Good Fellow.

Webster was a good fellow. At least,
those who were entertaining him on
SO lavish a scale thought so. He was
introduced into clubs, and could get
anything he desired. Everybody was
anxious to meet the Montana Million
aire, who had. not one dinner, but a
number, at the expense of Pensacola
men, and who had thirst for Nuns
which could not be quenched with a
few glasses. The longer he remained
in the city the more pleased he be-
came. and the more pleasure shown
by the Montana man, the greater
pleased were the Pensacola men, who
had visions of big transactions in the
very near future.

Washington, March Ex-senator La
Toilette, of Wisconsin, today contin-
ued his speech on the pending cur
rency bill, begun in the senate last
Tuesday. He devoted considerable
time in discussing the question OF the
physical value of railroads.
Gore, of Oklahoma, attempted to
draw him into a criticism OF the ac-
tons of President Roosevelt and Sec
rotary Cortelyou, in connection with
the recent financial disturbance, but
failed, the Wisconsin senator express
ing the opinion that the president act
ed in a way in which he believed at
the time to be in the best interest of
the country
After considering the omnibus claim
bill the senate referred it back to the
committee for further consideration.
The house today passed the pension
appropriation bill. carrying $3.50 $685.
900, the largest sum ever authorized
by that measure. The house stood
by the recommendation of the COM
mittee for one general agency, thus
abolishing the present II, and con-
solidating the pension disbursements
in Washington.
In the course of debate, Fitzgerald.
of New York, accused President
Roosevelt of using federal patronage
to further the interests of Secretary
TafI's nomination for the presidency.
Earlier in the day the president was
attacked by Harrison and Williams,
both of New York, for having, as
they stated, usurped his constitutional
authority, IN making the laws for the
Panama Canal zone by executive or
