VOX POPULI.
A TRIBUTE TO
MRS. w. .. CHiPLEY

Editor Pensacola Journal.
Permit me to add a word of testi-
mony to the excellent resolutions of
the Ladies. Memorial Association in
respect to the death of Mrs. w. D.
Chipley.
For many years I knew her well as
an earnest and devoted Christian,
whose one prevailing purpose in life
was to do her Masters will and fol
low His example. Her rule of living
was the Bible, whose light was clear
and true for her. Mere questions of
criticism lower and higher" never
blurred the vision of her soul as she
learned from the sacred volume the
laws of duty and the method of re
demptiOn for humanity if ever il is to
realize its destiny.
I remember her deep enthusiasm
for her church when our Baptist
brethren worshipped in the little
building on East Government street.

Alabama calls amendment water" and
proceeded to thrash his wife. This

so earnestly and enthusiastically that

and he was carefully guarded until
proper treatment could be admins
tered, and soberness again restored.

usual headache. Then he was re-
leased, since when he has not been
seen.
The dispatch goes on to say that
from his appearance one would never
suspect that this man is a preacher.
Nor from his conduct. either. we
might add, for, frankly, we don't
think it nice in any regular ordained
minister to get on a high horse and
beat his wife. Such indiscretio1 en-

This same enthusiasm moved her
probably to influence her generous
husband, Col. Chipley. to give the site
of the present cOmely and spacious
church, for whose erection she work

The Governor and
Dignity.

Governor Gilchrist comes in for a
mild-very miId-reproof at the hands
Of the Tampa Times, the latter fearing
that our chief executive is forgetting
his dignity and is giving way to the
temptation to arouse and enjoy the
transient applause of the frivolous"
while up north.
We quote the Times's own words:
Before We become too much en-
thused over the funny things our Flor.
ida governor is saying and doing
while he is on tours up north, before
We begin to attach too much import
ance to his performances as boosting
exploits, let us try and think up how
much good Wisconsin did herself by
elevating humorist Peck into the
gubernatorialI chair. This is not
meant as a fling at the governor,
whom the Times esteems very highly,
but as caution to the people that
they. should demand of their public of
fcials a dignity and solidity in keep
ing with the proper discharge of their
duties. We much fear our most eX-
cellent excellency is giving way to the
temptation to arouse and enjoy the
transient applause of the frivolous,
and per contra is not giving sober and
due attention to the silent approval
which comes from the arduous dis
charge of graver and more common
place duties.
But we must say, that our contem-
porary's kindly criticism is not war
ranted. When munching nuts around
banquet board where all is good
cheer, it is no time for long faces and
dyspeptic solemnity, wen On the part
of governor.
We have yet to note where our gov
ernor has strained his dignity in a
manner to cause us of sanctimonious
mien humiliation. The governor has
ever been equal to the occasion, but
he has behaved nicely.
The governor has natural vein of
humor, and to stifle it because he is
governor of a great state would be
hypocritical.
But our governor has also, a serious
side, and when the occasion demands
it, he can be as serious and grave as
even the Tampa Times should expec.
Of any man at one time.
If we must judge the future by the
past, we are forced to admit that the
dignity of Florida is safe in the care
of Governor Albert w. Gilchrist, even
if he isn't a benedict.

The Kissing of
Cannon.

The unpopularfty OF Uncle Joe"
Cannon, speaker of the house Of rep
resentatives, with the commissioners
in attendance upon the general as
sembly of the Presbyterian church at
Atlantic City, was forcibly portrayed
when the mention of his name during
a debate on the temperance question
caused a chorus of Kisses, an occur
renee almost unprecedented on the
floor Of the body. Really, Uncle Joe"
seems to stand badly with the
righteous of every creed. The Demo
Gratis do not love him, neither do the
Methodists, and now come the Pres
byterians who hiss his name. Even
many of those who have hitherto wor-
shipped at the Cannon shrine-the in
urgents-denounce him from every
corner. From no quarter, save the gild-
ed, if you please, do we hear any con-
soling words for the grizzly juggler of
the speakers gavel.
When the speaker hears of this At
lantic City incident it is expected that
he will make use of a few choice, sea
sonable epithets-an art in which he
has acquired something more than
local fame.
But, seriously, isn't it a sad com.
mentary on our boosted advancement,
that we should honor a man whose
power for shaping our national legis-
lation is perhaps second to none, the
mention of whose name in a religious
assembly is occasion for riotous hiss
ing?
Laws enacted by our chosen repre-
sentatives are supposed to operate for
the mutual welfare and happiness of
the greatest number of people, rather
than the advancement of a few peo-
PIES private interests. This true, can
We expect just legislation at the hands
of those whose moral conduct is ques-
tionable?
Many will recall the time in the
early career of Speaker Cannon when
he was retired from congress for two
terms because of his revoltingly OBJ
scene language on the floor of the
house in one of his speeches, Cannon
finally rallied and by promising to be
good, regained his seat in the house
which he has since held. The speaker
has since been more guarded in his
utterances on the floor. but lie has
gained a national reputation from the
use Of profane language in private
conversation.

President Taft
a LUXURY.

We suppose since It has been dis
covered that President Taft cannot
ride over the country every year on
the measly allowance Of $25,000.o0 due
provision win be made to cover the
inadequacy Of this amount. You see
the president only gets a salary of $780,
600 per, with incidental emoluments
OF $4,000, for travelling expenses. and
a goodly sum of money for other eX-
penses. OF course the president pays
for his bath robe and tooth picks, but
that's about all.
The more we have OF Mr.. Taft the
more expensive he becomes, and the
trouble is, we doubt II he is worth it.
Much Of that $4,000 was spent last
year during that journey of pacifica-
ton through the middle west, when
Mr.. Taft was doing his best to con-
vince those Independent wescerners
that the Payne-Aldrich monstrosity is
the best tariff law we ever had"
BY exceeding the speed limit for
spending the peoples money, Mr..
Taft has converted himself into sort
Of luxury. The biggest allowance ever
given a president has been over-drawn
by him. He found it necessary to
over-draw his account while going
over the country seeking to defend the
most outrageous tariff law ever known
in this country law which has ma
tsrislly increased the cost of every
