SUGGESTS A CITY
MARKET PLACE

Editor Pensacola Journal:
The San Carlos is built It's mask
of scaffolding and staging is taken
down and the splendid building stands
forth thing of solid, permanent, dig
nified beauty. Garden and Palafox
will very soon be paved and those
parks will soon be veritable ioy for
ever to us who live here and a source
of wondering admiration to those who
only occasionally come to see us. Now
when one stands at the intersection of
those two streets, almost lost in adj
miration of what is to be seen. the
question comes to the mind: What
next?" We've got our hotel and are
proud of it. We are getting orr
streets paved and our sidewalks laid.
and we are proud of these, too. But
let us not get too proud and stuck ND
about it, for we have only just begun.
and there's lots yet to do.
And so again, what next? WHY. a
public market place, of course. When
saw at our last years fair what this
and neighboring counties could raise
in field, farm and garden, in cattle,
poultry and dairy products, I said to
myself with that market in my mind)
this is the stuff" and when | stand at
Palafox and Garden, looking east, saw
this is the place"
That market place is to that fair its
natural and logical compliment, and
the only reasonable and sensible com
ment that any Pensacola man with a
pennyworth of pride can make is I'VE
must have It."

ExTORTION is
DENOUNCED.
. . . Q . . = . 9 . Q

The visitors to the recent Mardt
Gras carnival festivities in New Or
leans, from all parts of the country,
are bitter in their complaints of the
Wanton and outrageous overchargas
and impositions of the restaurants
and hotels of that city In many in
stances the overcharges were so ex-
orbitant that earnest protests were
made and some would not pay them.
New Orleans is the leading carnival
city OF the country and thousands of
people go there to see the pageant
every year and to visit the city. but il
has come to such a pass that some
thing must be done TO protect the
visitors or they will stop going. Re-
aliZing all this and being DESTROYS OF
stopping it. if possible. a confer
ence of representative business men
of New Orleans has been held, and
the States says:
LAS a result of the joint confer
ence between Mayor Behrman and
delegates from every commercial
body and exchange in New Orleans,
resolutions were adopted denouncing
the manner in which the city's visit
ors during the recent carnival were
made the victims of the extortion
urging the Hotel and Credit Mems
association to pledge its members
not to exact unreasonable prices dur
ing the coming Shriner's convention
or any other future occasion.
The delegates to the conference
were representative business men of
New Orleans and they unquestionably
reflect the sentiment of the general
public, hence it is safe to predict
that their action will go far to pre-
vent recurrence of the abuse which
has been the subject of such bitter
complaint. That New Orleans has
suffered enormous injury through the
greed of a few restaurant keepers
was made evident by the fact brought
out at the conference yesterday that
about thirty-fve Louisiana papers
had severely denounced the city be-
cause of the exorbitant prices that
strangers were compelled to pay for
food"
This is in the right direction and
will possibly accomplish something

The Way of the
IranSgreSSor.

The following is taken from the Me-
ridian, (Miss.) Dispatch, but the logic
contained in the article will apply to
Florida conditions and is good to pom
der over:
When it was written that "the way
of the transgressor is hard" it was
probably not intended that there should
be no mercy shown him, and that he
should be beaten with thousand
stripes or worse.
The law should be just and reason
able. 1t should not be brutal or over
bearing. 1t should be commensurate
with the crime that is committed, but
there should be a quality of mercy,
such as the Bible teaches, in its ad-
ministration.
A bill has passed one branch of the
state legislature creating the Office of
county attorney. The disposition in
this state is always and ever to create
more offices. The plan for the county
attorney to follow is to prosecute all
cases in the magistrates courts. For
each conviction, or plea of guilty in a
misdemeanor case, he is to receive the
sum of $40. For felony cases, he is to
receive $25.
offices for distribution.
But it will, in the opinion of this
| paper, work an injustice to somebody.
Suppose a dozen negroes, or whites
either, as for that matter, are jerked
up in magistrates court, charged with
| shooting craps. Suppose they are found
guilty. The county attorneys fees will
| be $12O. The regular fine will be, say
50, and the costs Of the court will be
rot less than IS more. This is putting
| things at the lowest. There will be g
total cost to each crap-shooter of $40
and perhaps the amount they are
fading for was not over nickle or
dime.

WoMAN'S PROGRESS.
(5y LiIias RiddeI corbett.)


Every day the fight for the recogni-
ton of woman as mans equal, grows
bigger And every day crops up some
new evidence that woman suffrage is
necessary for the progress of the
world. 1t is time, perhaps, to ex-
anime few of the arguments against
suffrage and to refute them.
The most frequently repeated argu-
ment, and the most ignorant is "Wo-
mans place is home"
Womans place" is wherever she
finds an occupation most suitable to
her individual abilities, and as there
are more women than men in the
world, every woman cannot have q
home, and many are forced out into
the world, where they work side by
side with men, as hard and often bet.
ter than the men, but receive less
pay because they have no voting
value
Again, the woman whose place" is
home, need not give up her home
when she votes. The act of voting
will occupy only few minutes, and
there is no necessity to spend the rest
of the day, as men do, in the corner
saloon. Having done her duty to her
country, herself and her children, she
can return home and get dinner for
the superior" male who is probably
rounding out election day by drinking
as much as he can hold or as much
as he can pay for.
Another argument against woman
suffrage is that women should not be
allowed to vote because they cannot
fight. This is refuted by the historic
al truth that women have fought in
some of the biggest battles of the
world. But again that is a foolish
argument, as inability to fight does
not show inability to govern Many
men who act as leaders and govern
ment authorities, ambassadors. etc,
know nothing of the art of fighting.
And then again that may be the solu.
ton of the whole difficulty-men NAV
be better fighters than women and
women may be better governors. Let
the women govern and the men fight
as directed by the women.
But again this argument will soon
be futile. All decent people look for
ward to a time when there will be
no more battles. The woman suffrag-
list Is particularly anxious to help
this great good dream to become a
reality.
Another argument used is that wo-
but none are as illogical as the
|, whole male sex which says, why do
women want to vote? They can have
everything they want if they only ask
for it." Very WELL" reply thousands
| of fine women, eve want the vote.
May we have it?" mo" reply these
'logicaI' men with horror. So the
very first and most vital thing women
ask for is PROMPTLY denied by the
| men who have just a moment before
stated that they would deny women
| nothing!
Sometimes men grow bitter to.
wards the working woman and claim
that she has injured the working
mans chances. To this nearly all
employers would reply that the man
has injured his own chances, for EN-.
| ployers have found that EMPLOYEES
| who do not smoke, drink or carouse
| all night, are more reliable and better
workers even if they are women.

Unjust
to Vardanail.

The Journal holds no brief for Mr..
vardaman of Mississippi, but in JUS
tice to an honest and patriotic public
citizen we would protest against the
merciless shafts that have been fired
at him recently apropos of the late
senatorial nomination in that state by
many of the metropolitan newspapers
of the south, and elsewhere.
Many of our larger newspapers seem
to rejoice in his defeat on the grounds
that we already have lone JEFF Davis

He is no more TO be compared with
the Arkansas near-statesman than is a
dollar to a dime with hole in it. In
no sense of the word is Vardaman a
demagogue. One has but to know him
to appreciate his absolute sincerity OF
purpose, for he stands today on public
issues where he has unwaveringly
stood since his advent into public life
He has been the loyal friend OF the
masses of his state the penalty for
which in this conservative" age is the
sneerfng dub from the conservative"
press Of "Demagogue!"
The popularity Of Mr.. Vardaman in
the northern and western states where
he has frequently delivered his great
lecture, THE Impending Crisis" for
the past two years explodes the empty
bugaboo that he would fan the fires OF
sectionalism were he to go to the Unit.

speeches he is ever calm and dlgnifed

fine reasoning and superb eloquence
that convinces.
On other public issues the distin'
guished ex-governor Dis in sympathy
with what we know as "Bryanism"-a
position no man can assume and main

of today who may be loved for the
enemies he has made.
He is able; he Is honest and clean

anything. The senatorial fight in Mis-

CITY LOSING MONEY
ACCORDING TO Mr.. ANDREWS

Editor Pensacola Journal:
I am credibly informed that it costs
the city thirteen cents to pump a thou,
sand gallons of water, and yet there
are some favored parties who are
getting it at ten cents per thousand
gallons, and by some of these it is
being sold in a retail way at twenty
five cents per hundred gallons.
Now if it costs the city IS cents per
thousand gallons to pump it, and these
parties get it for 10 cents, the city is
losing 8 cents per 1000, and the other
consumers are paying the differences
besides furnishing a commodity on
which these favored parties are max
ing a profit of $40 per 1000 gallons
Now is that treating the taxpayers
fairly?
