Episcopalians Are
Discussing Socialism.

The Episcopal church has generally
been regarded, and not without rea-
son, as an intensely Conservative body,
proud of it's ancient origin fearful OF
innovation. But that a great change
is coming over the spirit of the clergy
connected with that Christian body
has been indicated at recent conven-
tions, where radical utteTances have
been listened to with approval and
have made a strong impression.
The Episcopal congress in session
in Boston devoted much time Tuesday
to the discussion of Socialism in RI
lation to Christianity" and in the
course of a powerful address the Rev,
Elliott White, of Worcester, Massa-
chusetts. gave voice tc the following.
when considering the question of COM
plete political control by the masses
the producers of wealth:
These are TO be the arbiters of the
times that are not far of. What will
be their esteem of a church which re-
fuses to aid. or even opposes. their
toilsome ascent to power? Christian
ity must choose between the pro-
ducers and those who by force of
ownership now exploit them. In the
face of the iniquitouS CO. existence to-
day in America of multimillionaires
and starving seekers for opportunity
to earn bread; of wealthy idlers and
child laborers; of monopoliZed natural
resources and public utilities whose
owners dwell in palaces, and crowded
slums where $4,000 babies died every
year from ills directly traceable to
poverty-Christians who declare for
Socialism, and churches who give it
open hearing, should not be condemn
ed until il is shown to be adverse to
the practice of Christianity in per-
sonal aud national life. as we'll as
inadequate to diminish the grievouS
burden and minatory peril of our So
cial problems.
The Journal thinks this expression
is significant. and while not w;shinS
at present to comment upon it, re
commends it To the careful thought of
it's readers. For there is tru'y food
for thought in what Mir. Elliott says.
There are two or three ways of look
ing at everything in this world OF
ours.

THE LOAN SHARKS

As a result of tne stories regarding

lished exclusively in The Traveller and
tuTe ought to be pretty we'll inform
ed about them, and, We imagine,
thoroughly tired o. the subject.
A bill on the calendar of the house
provides, in brief. that the bank COM
missioner shall have the same right;
to make rules and regulations for the
Chattel Loan Company, and shall
have same supervision over it and its
branches that the police commission
er now makes for and exercises over
all other small loan houses.
There is no good reason why the
police shouldn't drop in on the South

We are afraid of ''perfecting amend
ments,' as Beacon Hill knows tho.
specious form of kpavery, and so The
Traveller gives its hearty support to
the Warren bill, unanimously reported
by the committee on banks aud bank
ing. Mr. Warren's bill is based on
the principle that, inasmuch as the
Chattel Loan Company is chartered
company, doing business by virtue
of it's charter, there may be some
question about asking it TO take on:
a police license.
The legislature knows its business
and knows the loan sharks, and will,
no doubt, follow the good work of the
assignment of wages" bill by pass
ing the second of the Warren bills.
The vote will be taken early on Mon
day afternoon. Watch out for jok-

That Automobile ACCIDENT.

Pensacola had a disastrous street
car and automobile collision Monday,
resulting in the death OF one lady
and serious Injury 10 two others. The
coroners jury charges the motorman
with criminal. negligence. From this
distance it appears that the negro
who was driving the automobile
should come in for a share of the
blame. - Mariana Times-Courier.
That is about the view we had taken
of the matter. The track is the only
place in the Street that a street car
can run on, and it seems to us that
those who are able to afford automo-
biles ought to be able to obtain driv-
ers SO skillful as to at least be able
to keep from stopping on a street
car track.-BoniSay Advertiser.

Pertinent Questions.

The Pensacola Journal, in a recent
issue, asked two very pertinent ques-
lions in the following paragraph:
What has become of the excellent
measure urged. by the governor TO
vest cities with the right to amend
their charters to suit themselves
through resolutions of councils con-
firmed b ythe vote of their citizen?
Why not sidetrack all charter amend-
mentS which take up valuable time,
pass this act at once and settle the
question:" The legislature could save
itself and its successors much trou-
bic by following this course. The in
dications are that a very great lart
of the time o. the next legislAre
will be taken up with incorporation

The Fight Against the FLY.

Referring. we Judge, to the crusade
of The Pensacola Journal, The Tampa
Tribune says: If the press has any
influence with them, all the flies
ought to be out O. Pensacola by this
time" The press deserves praise for
its crusade against the fly, the most
dangerous, no doubt. of all insects 10
the health of the people, and the
fight should be carried on in every
home in the land. To effect their ex-
termination, The Tampa Times offers
this remedy: To fight flies and other
insect pests effectively, use kerosene
oil. For household purposes pour the
oil into a sprinkler of water in about
the proportion of one TO twenty. using
a fine meshGd noZzel or spout, keep the
contents agitsted and spread over
the garbage and other uncleanness in
which flies breed. The same mixture
applied to the nests and roadwsys
of ants is quite effective In fact,
kerosene will kill all manner of in
sect life even if applied in minute
quantities. A good little spTsyer is a
splendid investment, but an ordinary
