to put a quietus on the Jeffries-John-

Nevada is generally favored because

factorily yesterday, over 40 names

These were all names Of thu city's
most solid men, too, whose ideas and
plans are to be valuable indeed in the
discussion which is to take place at
Thursdays event on the establishment
of Pensacola as a first-class summer
resort.
There have been very few indeed
who have been approached on the sub
ject who have not exhibited sufficient
public spirit to meet the proposition
half way.
The list, in fact, is to be closed by
tomorrow night. in order that a COM
plete report may appear in Sunday
mornings Journal.
The proposition of making the city
a live summer resort IS one which Is
being quickly recognized by Pensa-

those who. have already subscribed
are easily identified with the flower Of

alive to the interests Of their home
town, winter and summer. are expect
ed to cooperate, and from present in
dioations, there win be plenty of this
sort Of people.
Are you in line with Pensacola's
greater development?
Do you believe in Pensacola, and do
you want to help her along by your
brains and your suggestions?
Don't you see that she actually
needs to have something started to
bring the dollars in during the dead
months of July and August?
Then prove your interest by either
telephoning your name today or to-
morrow either to the San Carlos hotel,

scarcely dreamed of by the pioneers
who first delved into the yellow pine
which has about passed away This
hard wood round timber passes the
big saw mill here untouched, and goes
