THERE'S REASON IN THE ARGU
MENT

For twelve years one federal SEN
atOr came from Pensacola and one
from Jacksonville. Practically ever
since Florida has been a state one
senator has come from the east side
of the Suwannee river, and one from
the west, but we are now confronted
with the proposition of one city be-
ing the home of both the senators.
Manifestly this is unfair, and we be-
lieVe the people of Florida will recog-
.nize the right of the vast territory
west of the Suwannee to have recog-
milton in the United States senate
We believe the time and the man
have met in William A. Blount, and
We sincerely trust that he will con-
tinue to consider this matter favora-
bly,. Blount and Fletcher in the SEN
ate would equal matters up along a
geographical line, and at the same
time would give to this state a rep
resentation in that high tribunal such
as We have never enjoyed at any one
time heretofore, and a delegation as
strong intellectually as that from any
state represented there.-Pensacola
News.
Because these two cities, for the
past twelve years have furnished both
the United States senators it ought
not necessarily give them squat
ter sovereignty rights" on this office.
Never within the history of this state
has the peninsular portion of Florida
been honored with this distinction.
Seems to us, if we are to measure
by geographical lines, south Florida
should have an inning. Turn about
is fair play.

UNITE FOR THE SUCCESS OF THE
TRI-COUNTY FAIR

The instant and most imperative
call to the progressive forces of Pen
sacola is to solidly combine to make
the tri-county fair complete success.
The undertaking is far from being a
light one. 1t will be weighted with
numerous cares, complicated by an in
tricate web of detail and INSTRUCTED
by many rough and troublesome OBJ
stacles.
Those directly concerned in the pro-
ductiOn deserve and should receive
the earnest support of the mass of
our people. They show themselves to
be public-spirited citizens, alive to
the interests of the city and should
be cheered on in the good WORK by
the sympathy and help of all.
The ten subcommittee of the joint
committee of the Merchants AssOcia-
ton and Chamber of Commerce will
this morning commence their visits to
the business men of the city, seeking
subscribers to the stock of the Fair
Association. The eagerness of sew
eral business houses and individuals
to be placed among the subscribers
Tuesday confirms the Journals here
tofore expressed opinion that the peO-
pie give enthusiastic approval to the
holding of the fair.
Tuesdays volunteered subscrip-
lions, amounting to six hundred and
twenty-five dollars, were, we believe,
a happy augury that the collection of
the needed seven thousand dollars
will prove a comparatively light task,
and that each of the subcommittee
when making a report this evening,
will show a substantial addition to
the treasury of the association.
The committees should remember,
however, that a fuller success Will be
insured by a large number of small
than by a small number
Of large subscribers, for every stock !
holder, large or small, will become !
most active in securing that success
And citizens unable to subscribe !
largely should not permit false pride |
% deter them from investing even in /
)ne share of the stock; which, by the !
way, would be no Insignificant contri-
1ution toward the good cause. But
every man interested in the city
should make up his mind to do some
hing TO advance an undertaking
which will prove of inestimable bene-
it to Pensacola and the three cou-
tits which will participate.
The Journal hopes the sub-commit-
ees will meet nothing but cheerful
aces, willing hearts and open hands,
which will be the happiest harbinger
I success and the greatest inspira-
ion to work for those who are partic-
larly devoting their time and labor
o it.-Pensacola Journal
1t must not be forgotten also that
Iarion county, which held such a |,
magnificent and successful fair last
ear, is to repeat the experiment this
ear.

EARTHQUAKE CENTER.
CaIabria and Sicily often Before
Visited by Disasters.
> 2 = = ~
.SoLDIERN

Visited by Disasters.
Calabria and Sicily, which were so
disastrously visited by the recent seis-
mic disturbances, form the center of
the earthquake district of southern
Italy. The last serious earthquake in
Calabria occurred in September, 1909,
when 1000 persons lost their lives and
over thirty towns were destroyed. Two
thousand two hundred alone were re-
ported as being buried at MartiranO.
Calabria is in southern Italy, forming
the southern part Of the former King
dom of Naples. 1t is divided into three
provinces Cosenza, Calabria and Ca
tanzaro.
The full force of the recent earth
quake seems to have centc ed on Sicily.
The two principal cities affected there
are Messina and Catania. The former
is almost at the extreme northeast
point of the island. and is separated
from Calabria by the Straits of Mes
sina. 1t is in close proximity to Mount
Etna. AIeSSina. next TO Palermo the
chief commercial town of Sicily, with
upward of 10000 inhabitants. is stu
ated on the Strait of MesSina and is
overshadowed by a range of rugged
rocky peaks. 1t has experienced many
yiciSsitudes. 1t was an important place
in the time of the Romans, and bore
mart i'm the naval wars of Caesar and
Pompey. In A. D. S43 Messina was
taken bv the SaracenS, who in turn
were dispossessed by the NOrmans in
1869 Messina has been the scene of
MANY battles and sieges. and has been
so often devastated that there are no
important relics of antiquity. During
the eighteenth century Messina was
overtaken by two overwhelming calami-
tfes-a fearful plague in 1740 from
which 10000 persons died. and an
earth0uake i'm 1888 which destroyed al
most the entire town.
Catania is due south from Messina
and is situated at the foot of Etna. The
city is of noble appearance from the
sea. with regular and spacious streets
nayed with lava, of which material the
numerous public buildings are con
structed 1t has a population of over
100000. A natural mole of lava in
closes the harbor, and an expensive ar
tificial breakwater protects the city.
In Italy, as in Japan, earth tremors
are almost incessant but most of them
are SO slight as to be revealed only by
the seismographic records. While the
whole country, from the LOmbardy
plain to the toe of the peninsula, has
had more than its share of earthquake
disasters, the north has been visited
less frequently than the south

The Secret Service and
the Problems It Handles.

There is no branch of the govern
ment's work which is so little under
stood by the average man as is the
Secret Service, or that is so hedged
about with romance and glamour and
unreality. And something of what is
going OH among Uncle Sans detect
ives, whose alleged espionage of Con
gressmen enraged the lawmakers, may
be of interest.
At Washington there are a couple
of rooms in the Treasury building
with Secret Service Division" en-
blazoned over the door set aside for
the service. In one of these sits
Chief John e. Wilkie and his assist
ant, w. II. Moran. The other is occu-
pied by a dozen clerks. The doors are
always open, and any casual stran-
ger may wander at leisure through
them and endeavOr to draw upon his
imagination to the extent Of seeing the
mighty wheels go round. In thirty
seven other cities in the country there
are branch offices located in the va
rious post office buildings, and in each
of these is an official in charge. The
words Secret Service appear over
the doors, yet they are democratic
and open to the public as is the Wash
inetOn Office. The number of men in

TO HEIR EXPRESS CASE.
Il prH 96 Date Fired for Interstate
Commerce Hearing.

Washington. April IA case OF unusual impor-
tance Will be heard in Chicago April 26 by rep
resentatives of the Interstate Commerce Con1mls-
sion. being that OF the American Bankers Asso-
citation against various express companies in winch
the companies alleged to practise dlscrimlna-
ton against bankers in the transportation or
money.
A year ago the American Bankers AS
sociation filed a complaint in tentative way with
the Interstate Commerce Commission. with view
TO forcing the express companies to cease thelr
business of dealing in money orders, bill OF ex-
change-foreign and domestic-letters OF credit
drafts and similar evidences Of money.
This complaint examined informally by the
commission and conferences were held with the
commission by officials of the American Bankers
Association. AS a result the complaint in its origl-
nal form, not pressed, it being evident that
the commission would pTomulgate no order COM
pelling the express companies to cease their bust
of extending credits.
Subsequently another complaint was Med It's
principal allegation is that the express companies
unlaVfulIy discriminate against regular bankers IN
the handling and shipment of money and creolts'
The companies are the American, the Adams, the
United States, Wells. Fargo Co and the South
Pacific express companies
