NAVY YARDS WILL
NOT BE CLOSED,
Jacksonville Times-Union.
= %%%%%~%~~~~~~%

BY resembling the order for the
cIoSins Of the navy yards at New Or
IeanS and Pensacola, Secretary Meyer
mas earned the good will, not only OF
the people of the two cities directly
anected, but also of the people OF the
states in which they are located. In
fact, the people Of other gulf states
TOOK an interest in the matter, and
Will be pleased with the decision. The
chamber of commerce of Montgomery
took the matter up, and requested the
senators and representatives from Al
a0ama TO use their influence to have
Secretary Meyer do what he has since
done; and for Florida we wish 10 ex-
press appreciation Of the interest the
business men of Montgomery took IN
the matter.
The dispatch which tells of the re
scinding Of the order, says it is not
proposed for the present, at least, to
send any ships to these yards, the as
slgnments already having been made
Since the assignments have been
made, We do not ask that they be dis
turbed, but other assignments will
soon be made. When the time comes
for making them we ask that the
claims OF Pensacola and New Orleans
receive careful consideration.
We DetleFe IndJ repairs ana even
construction can be done in either OF
these yards cheaper than on the At
lantic seaboRrd Tney are nearer 10
a plentiful supply of what ships are
made of and repaired with. This is
especially true of Pensacola We be-
lieve an examination of the advan-
tages that Pensacola possesses would
Justify the construction there of the
largest shipbuilding establishment in
the United States.
We extend congratulations to the
Florida delegation for its effective
work. Secretary Meyer did not re-
Scind the order WITHOUT a reason. The
gentlemen who represent Florida in
the senate and house showed clear
and convincing reasons or the act of
Secretary NeWDerry would never have
been reversed; and we wish to call
attention to the fact that Pensacola
as WeH as Jacksonville and-everv 9th
er Florida community has two sena-
tors as ready to work for the interests
or any part of the state as of their
home town.

Child Labor Conference
In the Crescent City.

The governors of five states have
sent to Governor Sanders. OF Louis
lana, lists of delegates who will attend
the meeting of the Southern States
Child Labor Conference. TO be held in
New Orleans March 29th, Goth and
3lst, under the auspices of the Pro
Eressive Union of that city. These
states are Kentucky. Tennessee, Mis-
sissippi, North Carolina and South
Carolina.
1t Is of great importance that all
the states of the south should fall into
line, including our own common
wealth. For the conference will be
one OF the most important ever held
and its labors promise to result in a
far-reaching benefcence. No doubt
Governor Gilchrist will see to it that
Florida shows a proper interest in
this movement for the preservation of
the children OF the south from evil
causes which are bound 10 dwarf their
minds and weaken their bodies, IN
fitting them for the responsibilities of
after life. Delegates should lie nam
&c only upon the understanding that
they VIII attend and sustain the repu-
tation OF their state as one of the pro
gressive forces of the day.
And any man who has the means
should esteem it an honor, high
privilege, 10 be afforded an opportun-
ity TO lend his voice both for the good
name of his commonwealth and for
the sake of forwarding humane treat
ment Of the innocent. Let US all hope
that the conference viii be an i'm
mense and enthusiastic gathering OF
those determined TO insist upon a rad
zeal reform in the child labor law.
