Rapid Progress Being Made

Immense Enterprise.

All This Week Exhibits in
Various Branches - The
Amusement Men Here and
Continue Preparations For
Their Work During Fair.

Not in the history of West Florida
has any public event received the ad-
vertising as has the Pensacola Inter
state Fair, November 7-12, inclusive.
Hence the unprecedented large crowds
that are anticipated. Two reasons
lead the fair management to believA
that the largest crowds that ever ar
sembled in Pensacola or atone point
IN West Florida will be on hand; the
excellent advertising and the extreme
ly low railway rates,
Therefore, the management Is pre-
newspapers throughout the .Pepsacola
crowd that ever assembled here. That
the results Of the advertising are al.
that was expected Of it, is an assured
fact from the large volume Of mail
received at the fair headquarters III
response to 1t. liz
I When operations to hold the fs
this year were first Instituted an S
vertising and publicity department
was organized. As members Of tne5.
departments capable men were nama|

Of Pensacola.
Another feature OF the a..s o.tti ing
was made thrdAgh the uco.operaticnN NJ
the publishers of weekly and DAP!
newspapers throughout tho Pensac4 Ia
district. Neat advertisements aEd
reading matter Of the fair were gotten
out in pot metal form and dis.
tributed wholesale within a radius Of
100 miles. = The cooperation OF this
class Of publications referred to has
been prompt and satisfactory and has
gone long ways in making the fair
the success that it will undoubtedly
be.
Then, the railway and other trans
portation companies came forward
handsomely and extended the lowest
rates that ever prevailed in this section
during the fair week. Thus hundred
and thousands of people will have the
opportunity of visiting the big show
at comparatively low cost.
TENTS GOING UP.
The work Of the management ls dt.
rected now on the erection Of the va.
rious exhibit and other tents and
buildings. The agricultural, poultry
and commercial tents were completed
yesterday, while the finishing toucheS
have been made on the womsn's

Editorial Comment.
The Present Situation.

The turn of affairs by which more
legislation has been secured at the
present session of Congress than
seemed remotely probable few
weeks ago, is apparently due in the
largest measuer to recognition on
the part of the Republicans that only
record of very considerable accom-
plishment could save them from over
whelming disaster at the polls in NO
vember How much the situation
has now been benefited remains to be
seen. But nothing-not even the aid
of Mr.. Roosevelt himself-would have
apparently awaited to prevent such
disaster if some seven weeks ago the
advice of weak -kneed Republican had
been followed in Washington. At the
time when the railroad bill began to
suffer ACKNOWLEDGMENT, and when 1t
was seen how strong the insurgents
had become in the Senate, faint
hearted members of the conservative
wing upon which President Taft has
placed his chief reliance in matters of
legislation, were disposed to throw
up their hands, go home and admit to
the country that the party organiza-
ton was incapable of carrying
through a Legislative program. But
the counsel of those who, like Senator
Crane, We're inSistent upon making
the best of the situation has now been
brilliantly vindicated; indeed it
would be hard to estimate President
Taft's debt to those who in the upper
house of Congress have fought his
battle in the face of great temporary
encouragement. Yet while the in
Surgents seem for the moment less in
evidence, it will not do to prematurely
assume that the movement which
they represent has spent it's force
They will surely remain an element to
be reckoned with in the next Con-
gress. although if the administration
should steadily gain in prestige
through the summer they might find
it more difficult to acquire merit in
the eyes of their constituents by
such an indiscriminate girding at ad-
measures as some OF
them have practiced during the pres
ent session.

A Convention Week.

This is an important week of the
campaign for Republicans of the
Third district, Kennebec county and
the State and incidentally ii will be
conducive to scenes of activity in the
Capital city.
Tuesday comes the Republican Dis
trict Convention, Wednesday the Re-
pubicans of the State meet to nomi-
nate a gubernatorial candidate and
Friday is the date of the Republican
County Convention, all three of these
assemblages being held in the city of
Augusta.
Not only is most important work
laid out for the Republican party the
next few busy days but the Demo-
cratic enemy will be on the alert to
convert possible MISUNDERSTANDING or
mistakes into Democratic ammunition
for their peculiar style of warfare
hence every Republican should like
wise be on guard.
Moreover Republicans this week
meet here to lay the foundations of
success at the polls on September II.
1t is of the utmost Importance to
select as candidates able men and
good men who will win.
In all the deliberations of each Re-
publican Convention the pre-eminent
thought and impulse in every dele
gates mind and heart should be the
manly and generous impulse and idea
that the chief end and purpose of the
deliberations and work of the cOnven-
tons are for the party-its better
ment. strengthening and success.
Self and selfish advancement should
be subordinate to this purpose of eff
fecting what for the Republican party
is best.
And bear in mind. brethren, that in
factions and dissensions there is dan
ger and that in harmony and union
there is strength.

AS the Boston Globe in eXtenso re-
