MR.. SENTERF|TT
IN BALTIMORE
is ATTENDING SOUTHERN BAP-
TiST CONVENTION, WHICH is
MOST SUCCESSFUL OF ANY IN
HISTORY.
Baltimore, Nav IL, 1910.

Baltimore, May IL, 1910.
Editor Pensacola Journal
l arrived here this afternoon over
the l.. & N, Southern and the Fem
sylvania railroad via Atlanta and
Washington, and am pleasantly locat-
ed near the assembly hall of the
Southern Baptist Convention-the
greatest religious convention in the
world.
Notwithstanding the session is be
ing held in one of the geographical
extremes of the convention every in
dication is that it will be one of the
best attended of it's history. Special
and regular trains are still bringing
delegates and visitors in large num-
'bers.
Reports of the work show that
greater results, financially and other
wise. have been attained in the mis-
sionary effort than ever before. More
than a million dollars have been col
lected by the three boards of mis-
sionary work. Larger numbers have
been added to the church than in any
previous year.
The welcome address was deliver
ed by R. A Edmunds this afternoon.
He said there were no latch strings
to the doors of the city, its homes or
hearts of it's people-the doors were
taken off their hinges.
This is a great city, about twenty
times as large as Pensacola was a
year or so ago.
Jacksonville is making a strong
pull for the next session and all our
Florida delegates with many others
are wearing unique badge gotten
out by the Jacksonville people.

SATURDAY, MAY IA, 1910.
England's
New King.

A great deal is now being said
about the probable effect that a
change in kings will have, not only on
the English government, but on the
entire world
1t is said that the new king, George
", Is not as fond of a grand display,
with all. the royal appendages, as was
his father, the late King Edward; that
the social functions will be less demo
cratic and on a less magnificent dis
play.
This is a matter OF no moment.
The world, generally. doesn't care a
continental how the social affairs of
England are conducted. and if a few
American toadyists are left out in the
cold. It won't bother the people of this
country any, for those Americans who
go to England to spend the money
they made in the United States in or
der that they may bask in the sun
shine of royal favor. do not need any
sympathy. If they fail to get royal
recognition, it will not hurt this coun-
try, but it may keep a few dollars out
of England.
In the direction of governmental af-
fairs the king has but little authority.
1t is true, that by indiscretions, he
might foment strife, but there are
many patriotic men in England who
will be the advisers of the new king
who will try to steer him clear of the
breakers, even If he is not level-head,
ed enough to do SO himself.
The general belief is, and 1t is rea-
sonable, that the new king will try to
carry out the policies of his father
King Edward, and that everything
will move along smoothly.
When the United States government
changes its president there is seldom
any apprehension. 1t should be the
same way with the countries over
which kings and emperors rule. The
great rulers of the earth must die, the
same as their subjects, so there is nc
need of anticipating an unfortunate
condition of affairs. Indeed, the time
is past when despots can rule. Even
in kingdoms and empires there is a
spirit of personal liberty that no ruler
can override. The day of the cruel
and overbearing monarch Is a thing OF
the past. Largely, the United States
has been responsible for this large de-
gree of liberty. as other countries
have seen that the people have the
capacity to rule.
1t is not likely that the world viii
know any difference because of the
accession to the throne of a new king
in England. This is a matter always
to be expected, as kings must die anG
there must be another succession tc
the throne.
King Edward is dead: King George
is on the throne. and the world will
move along in the same old way.
