DAUGHTER OF cONFEDERACY
ANSWERS THE QUESTION

Editor Pensacola Journal:
The article from the pen Of Mr.. e..
P. Morris in the Vox Populi column of
Fridays paper was read with much
interest. and l beg to submit few
statements.
The Children of the Confederacy, or
Children's Chapter, Is a kindergarten
or primary department of the general
organization Of the Daughters of the
Confederacy, and we hope to perpetu-
ate that organization.
Mr.. Morris asks: why is it we
want to perpetuate the horrors of that
cruel war in the minds Of our chill
dren?" In reply will quote from the
constitution of the Daughters of the
Confederacy:
THE objects of this association are
memorial, historical, educational, lit
erary, social and benevolent, to col
lect and preserve the materials for
truthful history of the war between
the Confederate States and the United
States of America; to honor the mem
DRY Of those who served and those
who fell in the service of the Confed-
crate States, and to record the part
taken by Southern women, as well in
untiring efforts after the war in the
reconstruction of the South, as in pa
tient endurance of hardships and
patriotic devotion during the struggle;
to cherish the ties of friendship
among the members of the society,
and to fulfill the duties of sacred
charity to the survivors Of the war,
and those dependent upon them;" ESQ
Mr.. Morris can readily see that the
C. Of c.. are Bands of Mercy'0; ito
promote in the public schools the
teachings Of true history Of the United
States without Partially or prejudice,
for or against any section"
We render honor to whom it is due.
Recently a monument was unveiled
near the site of the Andersonville
prison in Georgia, to the memory of
one of the South's greatest martyrs,
Major Henry Wirz. On this monu.
ment a bronze tablet was placed to
the memory of the Federals who went
to Washington to implore the exchange
of prisoners, returning to the prison
after this unsuccessful mission.
Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis
advised us to accept Loyalty the re-
suits of the war. That counsel was
accented The Confederate soldiers
ington the same faithful support which
he gave to the government at Rich
mond It is all his country wherever
the flag floats. In. the war with Spain
he gave proof of his loyalty. But let
the Daughters of the Confederacy ever
respond to the question with which
our lately lamented leader-Stephen
Dill Lee-closed the address he had
prepared to deliver at the Birmingham
reunion. but was called to his great
reward on the eve he did so:
DO they love us still in Dixie?
Yes, we love you still In Dixie!
You and your sweethearts, too.
For your sweethearts are our
mothers
Can you doubt that we are true?
Though your ranks now fast are
melting,
And the Stars and Bars are furled,
Yet the South will live forever
In the glory OF your world

SAID OF PENSACOLA
AND PENSACOLIANS

The Pensacola Journal is angry be-
cause of the omission of Pensacola
and the Miami Metropolis is in bad
humor in behalf of all the omitted
cities, Jacksonville included. The
Times-Union is inclined to take thia
matter philosophically. If a paper is
foolish enough to publish a map Of
the Southeastern States that omits
Jacksonville it simply publishes a
worthless map. A little thing like
that can't hurt Jacksonville. but isn't
il funny map?-Jacksonville Times.

of Pensacola, is to be police court

That Map.
If Bernard N. Baker, the Manufac.
turers' Record writer, and his map.
maker, could read the Florida papers
they would doubtless feel that they
had committed a lamentable blunder
When the Tribune called attention ID
Bakers map and the fact that he he
had omitted Tampa from considera.
ton in connection with the Panama
Canal, other Florida papers, printed
In seaports, looked up the map-aud
now we hear a chorus of jeers.
Jacksonville wasn't on it; Pensacola
wasn't on it; Miami wasn't on It.
Such remiSSneSsi
The Journal howIed. Pensacola
couldn't be found on the page. "Pen.
sacola," says The Journal, lis closer
to the Panama Canal than any other
port which Mr.. Baker mentions" That
is very modest in The Journal. It
might have been expected to stop with
the word port" and leave the
qualifying phrase (which Mr.. Baker
mentions" But The Journal did what
Mr.. Baker didn't dot thought of
Tampa, and, as Tampa wasn't on Mr..
Bakers list, the Pensacola assertion
could stand unrefuted
The Miami Metropolis had some
thing to say. 1t suggests that every
city have its own map-maker. This
would certainly be a safer plan than
leaving our map-making to men of nc
Baker calibre, who can see only one
port in Florida-Key West.
Pensacola, Miami, Jacksonville, like
Tampa, have just cause for complaint
about the omission of their names
from the Manufacturers Record map;
and Tampa in particular, because this
port is THE nearest to the canal and
so officially declared by resolution of
congress as well as by actual geo.
graphicaI fact But we are disnosed
to await the correction which we feel
sure will be forthcoming from a great
journal like the Manufacturers Rec
ord. At any rate, Tampa will make
enough Panama Canal noise next
month to show that it is really on the
map-and we'll ask the Record 10
listen.-Tampa Tribune.

Journal remarks, Pensacola is nearer

Key West that was named in the ar

as Tampa. but it is about next. Just
what the writer of the Record article
meant, what he was driving at, what

LESSON TO MoRTALs.

I'VE have gone to the material limit
seemingly. The mere piling up of
matter in the shape of property We
nerated property has proceeded until
we have lost much of the real riches
of life. If a derided comet were used
as the means to bring us to our psy-
chical senses and to show to us that
the things we seek so earnestly are
the least of those we should seek to
teach us to look upward and outward
rather than downward and askance. il
would be in line with much that hui
man experience has found to be true
before.
"Postulating always the primeval
power we can find rational things. It
is only when we try to limit to our
very finite understanding the limitless
cult to understand how by disturbing
the radiation of solar energy, or by
concentrating it on the earth at one
period and diffusing it at another. CO.
NETS cause natural phenomena. Those
who have read the explanatory ar
ticles in The Star will not have much
difficulty in cOmprehending how this
can and must happen. We have not
passed the high point of this disturb
ance yet. There will be more earth.
quakes, possibly nearer home, more
curious weather and remarkable
changes, more fires, more explosions,
more volcanic activity. Let us set
our house in order. 1t will do no
harm and we may be glad we have
done So"
