The Old-Tirne
Plantation Melodies.

There is a charm about the old time
plantation melodies sung by the ne

time when all Dixie was happy and
contented with its lot.

Mr.. Bryan and TEMPERANCE

Feel1ng against Mr.. Bryan is report
ed from Nebraska on account of his
attitude toward the brewers and the
dlstIllers. He is opposed to their al
lance with the democratic parrv, ana
will use his influence to put an end
to it. AS result he is accused OF
being prohibitionist. and it Is even
suggested that he may try to commit
the democracy at the next national
convention to a temperance policy.
Upon his return from his travels Mr.
Bryan will probably answer his critics
at length. The subject will keen, In
fact, 1t is a growing subject. Not so
much is heard about it now as a short
time since, but temperance is still a
live issue throughout the south, and in
many of the states elsewhere. PROM
bltion has not made the states which
have adopted it as dry as a powder
horn, but the organizations which Sc
cured the legislation are still intact
and ready for any additional action
their opponents may make necessary

PensacoIa,s Awakening.

With the appearance in the rivers
and harbors bill of the appropriations
for the improvement of the entrance
to this harbor, and the beginning of
work on the canal connecting the Apa-
lachicola river with st. Andrews Bay,
the more progressive citizens of Pen
sacola begin - awake TO the situa-
ton, to take home the conditions that
are being created in the matter of
transportation to a deep water port of
the interior commerce, and best of all
to acknowledge that st. Andrews Bay
really exists. The Journal has been
doing good work for Pensacola in
rousing its citizens to better efforts
toward securing competing transpor-
tation. IN which it has been ably aided
by such leading citizens as w. A
Blount, and others.-Panama City

Governor Hadley of Missouri is try
ing to show that "Gumshoe Bill" Stone
got his seat in the senate through
fraudulent methods. If this fact is
established, Senator Stone ought to re-

take a seat in the senate. Folk is the
man for the place any way and the
country would profit through such a
change.

About Mr.. Stokes.

John P. Stokes, of Pensacola, has
announced for the state senate from
Escambia. He was a member of the
lower house from that county last ses-
sion and although but twenty-five
years of age he fought his way up to
the position of speaker pro tenn. He
also secured the passage of the loan
shark bill. If elected to the state
senate he will probably be one of the
youngest men ever in that body. The
place he aspires to was formerly occu-
pied by John S. Beard, who has re-
tired from the political arena.-St. Au-
gustine Record.

The Gainesville Sun is authority for
the statement that Prince Miguel and
his wife, who was Miss Anita Stewart
of this country, are having trouble. It
seems that the prince before their
wedding a few months since, began to
feel his anticipated oats and became
involved to the extent of a million dol
lars. Since the nuptials, the Stewart
money has not been Forthcoming and
now the installment men are selling
the furniture Of the couple as part
payment Of the debt. Thus it is seen
that weeviI-eaten titles are not good
mediums of exchange when you go to
buy rocking chairs, dishes, floor mats
and things.

Editor Mayes, of The Pensacola

contra. Editor Matthew, of the Starke
Telegraph, and Editor Russell, of the
Palatka News, both bright particular
stars in Florida journalism, have an
nounced for the lower house. and we
hope they may both get there.
These, with McCreary, of the Gaines
vile Sun, candidate for the senate,

prospects, we predict on general

THE BARONESS UCHIDA

The wife of the new Japanese am
bassador to the United States, the
Baroness Uchida, is daughter of one
of Japan's millionaires and became a
Christian while student at the Do
shisha Girls school in Kyoto. This
is one of the educational plants start
ed by Joseph Neesima under the au-
spices of the American Board. Mrs.
Uchida afterwards studied at Bryn
Mawr. One of her sisters is the wife
of the Minister of Home Affairs in
the present cabinet Both she and
her husband are Christians and not
long ago they entertained all the Pro-
testant missionaries gathered at To-
kyo to celebrate the semi-centeenial
of the beginning of missionary work
in Japan. Commenting upon the an
niversary one of the Japanese news
papers said that the part which wom-
en- took in the exercises, appearing on
the platform before large mixed
audience, was striking evidence of
the advancement of Japanese women
under the influence of Christianity.
The presence of the prime minister,
the minister of education and other
prominent men on this occasion
marked great change in sentiment
towards missionaries since the day
when, no later than 1884, they receiv-
ed letter addressed to 1.-The four
American barbarians, Davis, Gordon,
Learned and Greene" In it were
these sentences "You have come from
far country with the evil religion of
Christ and as slaves of the robber
Neesima s. Those who brought
Buddhism to Japan in ancient times
were killed. But we do not wish TO
defile the soil of Japan with your
abominable blood. Hence, take your
families and go quickly" A few years
later those same "barbarians" were
honored as guests in the homes of
some of the leading citizens.
