SUMMARY OF BIDS WHICH WERE
RECEIVED FOR THE cONSTRUc-
TON OF SEVERAL PROPOSED

A summary of the bids which were
opened lately for the construction of
non-commissioned officers quarters at
Barrancas is interesting. The bids
were made by number of builders on
the several structures, as follows:
NJ. C. o. Quarters.
Edwards Construction Co., Tampa,
$5537; George Ittner, Atlanta, Ca;
S661S; Walter Acker, Jr. & Co. for

Edwards Construction Co., SHIT;

$1,000; Henry Monk, $1,000.
The figures given were for the use
Of slate in the construction, and did
not include bids for plumbing, heat
ing and electric wiring. Bids were
also made for tile construction, which
in every case was higher than the
slate bid. Henry Monk of Pensacola
bid upon the entire construction with
slate, placing the figures at s12,100.
Mr.. Monk also bid for the complete
entire construction with tile, making
the figures total s15,355. He was the
lowest bidder, or eQualled the lowest
bidder, in all the work.

ancy or antagonism in these facts, as
we shall presently see. Capt Spald-

seven possible routes across the PENN

cheering and commercial aspects for

judgment, cited above, is the more
noteworthy because army engineers

ApalachicoIa to ST. Andrews Bay.
The lower house of congress has or

The engineers declared in favor of it,
estimating the cost at $4,000, and
recommending that it be done. The
rivers and harbors bill carried 500, 900
beginning" this work. This means.
that under the congressional custom,
each rivers and harbors bill will carry
the amount which the engineers report
as necessary to continue work until
the next rivers and harbors bill is
framed. Heretofore, there has been a

ADJUSTMENTS.
Royal Hungarian Orchestra.

A delighted audience left the K. of
G. hall last night after the sixth
lyceum attraction, that of the Royal
Hungarian Orchestra, in concert. The
orchestra, under the leadership of
Louis Lpsh, appeared under the
auspices of the Pensacola Lyceum
League, and a higher classed enter
tainment, SO far as musical numbers
is concerned, was never enjoyed here.
A repertoire of selections was rem
dered, and each Of them was heartily
applauded. Prof. Lipski is a splendid
artist, and the apt and expressive
style with which the nine members OF
the orchestra rendered their respective
number, is due in great measure to
having such an artist as Prof. Lipskf
over them. The orchestral work was
especially fine, the members, being
Hungarians, playing Wild, weird music
of their steppe country.

connect the Chattahoochee river and
st. Andrews Bay. The work of the
Mississippi to Atlantic Inland Water
way Association furnished the addi-
tional influence to connect the Chatta-
hoochee valley with the gulf by a deep
wat harbor. Apaiachicola is no
worse off than she was before. st.
Andrews is better off. The whole Sec
ton is better off, and Apalachicola will
get some of the benefits. The en-
gineers decided in favor of the con-
Meeting of st. Andrews with the Apa-
lachicola because % the commerce
of the Chattahoochee valley required a
deep water port, and (2) because the
deep water port could be created more
cheap1y by connecting with st. An
drews than by improving Apalachicola.
Project Recognized.
The st. Andrews Apalachicoia con-
nection formally recognizes the Mis-
sissippi to Atlantic Inland Waterway
by its name. 1t does not commit the
government to the whole project. But
it draws national attention to the
whole project by ordering construction
of part Of it. The same organization,
the same policy, and the same lines of
effort that have accomplished this
much can accomplish the rest-not at
all at once, but rapidly, section by sec
ton, if the work is vigorously prose
cuted.
Is 1t Worth While?
All these facts considered, is it
worth while for Pensacola to devote
thought, effort and money to the Sc
curing of the project in its entirety,
including those sections of particular
value to Pensacola as a locality?
Pensacola has been asked to furnish
s., 900 this year-November to No
vember-to assist in carrying on the
work OF the association. Policies
appropriations. Herein lies the great
value of the rivers and harbors con-
gress. But it requires projects to pro-
cure appropriations, and the adVocat-
ing of projects requires systematized
effort. Therein lies the necessity for
organization.
Educational Publicity
The chief work of the association is
educational publicity. The newspapers
of the gulf coast and elsewhere have
given free space freely But it requires
no little clerical work, and a great
deal of research to compile the Stats
tics and arguments that make reading
matter worth the space of the news
papers. There is also a great deal of
personal correspondence necessary
with men of influence and sets of men
Of influence. Both the individual and
the mass have to be educated on,
first, the personal advantage, either
direct or indirect, to the individual;
second, on the advantage to the pub
lie. Stationery costs money. Postage
stamps cost even more. Clerical help
especially stenogTaphic-is both
necessary and costly. Effort means
expense. Some one must make the
effort, and a good organization usually
gets the best results for the money ex-
pended.
Expenses to Date.
The total collections by the Missis-
sippi to Atlantic Inland Waterway As
ISOLATION from May Z, 1908, when it
was organized, to date have been 49,
071.50. None of the general officers
have collected the travelling expenses
to which they are entitled under the
