Putting Ban on
School Fraternities.

Chicago has taken the initiative IN
the matter of putting a ban on frater-
mites in high schools and they will not
be allowed in any of the city schools
hereafter.
When the board of education decided
this matter it did something that
should have been done years ago.
They have eliminated one feature in
the schools that has worked to the
detriment of many schools which would
have been otherwise all right.
The fraternities are all right in a
way. but they have tendency to
break the schools and colleges UP into
factional parties, which is not good for
the institutions, and whenever one of
the pupils decided to go through school
without connecting himself with any
fraternal organization, this pupil was
an outcast and was not given the same
chance that the ones had who be-
longed to the fraternities.
There is some argument for the
frat societies, for in these organiza-
tions many close friendships are
formed which sometimes last through
a lifetime, but on the whole the So
cieties do more harm than they do
good.
Schools, especially those of public
nature, should be as democratic as it
is possible for them to be. At present,
where the fraternity organizations are
in existence, this is not the case fol-
the boy or girl that does not belong &c
some society is considered a snob and
is practically ostracised.
Now when boy or girl enters
school, especially is it so of the boy
he must get into the fraternities fol
his college career to be a successful
one. 1t is not quite as bad in the
high schools, but an almost similar
condition exists there.
The Chicago school authorities were
almost unanimous in their ruling and
we believe the general public VIII
agree with them and make an effort
to have the same ruling apply to the
high schools throughout the country.
Fraternal organizations are all right
but there is enough time after educa.
ton is finished to join them.

Honoring the
Southern Women.

Last week bill providing five thou
sand dollars with which to erect a
memorial to the noble women of the
southland in the sixties, passed the
senate and is now before the lower
house. The Journal believes it to be
the desire of the people of Florida that
the house take similar action and al
low the appropriation.
The amount is not available unless
the veterans raise a similar amount
and nothing that the state can provide
funds for will reflect more credit upon
the state than a memorial to the wom-
en- of the Confederacy Of Florida.
This is no time to exploit the virtues
Of the women Of that time. Their
valor and patriotism is too well known
to need comment In doing honor to
the southern women the state of Flor
ida will do honor to itself.

the customers alone to blame. There
is high city official for instance who
Is a dealer In cigars and who sells
outside of Pensacola made cigars ex>
clusively right here in this city by
the thousands. II he ever did sell a
homemade cigar he does not now.
And there are others. Why? They
may assert that the quality is inferior
to those made IN other cities. But
every cigar manufacturer in Pensacola
will gladly prove to anyone that the
quality Of the cigars made here is just
as good If not better than those made
elsewhere. Yes, there is the price
They may tell you that they can buy
the cigars considerably cheaper else
where than they can here. But they
forget to add, however, they buy them
in lots Of many thousands from out
side, while they may favor the local
manufacturer with an order of a few
hundred. But if given a. chance the
local manufacturer is able to compete
with any outside product even in the
price.
Such are the conditions in the cigar
industry in Pensacola now. Will they
alter when we get more factories? And
will the manufacturers of other goods
fare better after they have accepted
the urgent invitation. of Pensacola's
citizens, the result OF the APPARENT
need for industries and more indus
tries, after they have located here?
Let US hope so.

PENSACOLA, HER INDUSTRIES
AND HER PROSPECTS

Editor Pensacola Journal.
Beholding the great progress Pen
sacola has made within less than a
decade one can not help but admire
the public spirit that has resulted in
the great achievements the Deep Wa
ter City can now boast OF, and that
goodly portion of this progressive
ness can be attributed to the unceas-
Ing efforts of the press there can be
no doubt. The Journal, for instance,
has time and again showed the way,
excellent suggestions it has brought
forth in its splendidly edited columns.
And now our city has become a fac
tor among the most progressive COM
rnunities in the country. But are we
able to carry out the policy of a
Greater Pensacola, a policy that has
been tnaugurated so successfully? Will
we be able to reach our goal, not only
to have a city that will take a place
in the foremost ranks of the most
beautiful Of and modern of all cities,
but also one that will enjoy a general
prosperity, which will keep pace with
the outward signs Of prosperity? It
would be ostrich policy indeed to point
at beautiful parkways and mansions
and rows of tall skycrapers and be
contented with these achievements. AS
1t has been pointed out repeatedly by
the press all efforts are in vain as
long as we lack resources and Of these
first of all-industries.
If industries really are a great fac
tor in the development Of a city then
1t must be the duty Of every citi-
zen to not only encourage the estab-
lishment of such but also help along
a healthy growth. But it seems that
in spite of the urgent apeals of the
press a great number of citizens have
not as yet grasped the importance of
such a policy. Thousands Of dollars
find their way to other cities, are sent
out of town for goods which can be
procured, If not cheaper then perhaps
Of a better quality here at home.
Repeatedly it has been suggested
for instance to establish a tobacco
industry in Pensacola to encourage
cigar factories to locate here by offer
ing them free taxation, etc. No doubt
an excellent plan and there is no rea-
son on earth why Pensacola should
not be able to have such an extensive
industry and derive the benefits there
of as did for instance the city Of
Tampa But this can not be accomp-
lished as long as your citizens do
not realize that charity begins at
home" that it is essential that they
will have to patronize home industry
first to make the latter a success. 1t
is really-to say the least-surprising
how little stock the average Pensa-
colian takes In Made in Pensacola"
We have now cigar factories here, the
products of which can stand compari-
son with any Of the cigars made in
other cities. But what do we find?
The vast majority Of all cigars sold
here come fro moutside. If you ap-
proach some of the jobbers and deal

South American
Countries Advancing.

Some of us have entertained the
opinion that the South American
countries are small potatoes and few
in hill, but close observation Of the
reports that come from many of these
countries will give the contrary infor-
ymation.
q These countries are practically what
the United States was a short time
ago and they are making progress
along all lines and are gradually build
ing up navies that will play large
part in the naval strength of the
world at no distant day.
Heretofore these countries have
been content with buying the caste off
ships of England and other European
powers in order to have some pretense
of naval protection, but this is now a
thing of the past and first-class battle
ships are being built for the different
powers in South America.
At this time there are no less than
q dozen battleships either under con-

type.

States, especially the southern portion.
for these countries to continually ad-
vance. Already the trade relations are
increasing and the countries are being
brought into closer touch with each
other.

hemisphere at no distant day viii be

lions will promote that spirit of friend

she got, which was a few days ago

FINE MUSIC AT

Exceptionally good services were
held at the East Hill Baptist church
last Sunday night, largely due to the
courtesy Of the Philips male quartette,
who rendered three exceedingly good
selections, which held the large and
attentive audience spellbound.
These beautiful hymns, so appro-
priately rendered, sank deep into the
hearts Of all those that heard them
and were undoubtedly the seed of
much good.
We desire to extend to these worthy
workers, who are doing so much good
in Pensacola, the heartfelt thanks of
all that had the great pleasure of
hearing them last Sunday evening. and

Legislature
Getting to Work.

Just as we were giving up In de-
SPAR. the legislators Of whom we ex-
pected so much at first. got down to
business and the last two days Of last
week began to earn their money and
serve the people they are representing,
present legislature, this being neces-
sary, no doubt, on account OF 90 many
new men, but there is some time yet
left to render the state a vast amount
of good service during the next three
weeks IL the members Of both houses
will get down to business.
Several important matters that af-
feet the entire state are before the
legislature. These should be taken up
in regular order and disposed OF as the
people desire.
The bond issue for good roads IL a
question which the people are almost
unanimously in favor Of. The same is
true in regard to putting the convicts
on the public roads, and this matter
ought to be settled quickly. Then
there is the school system laws which
need attending to and there is no OPP
position that amounts to anything.
= The Wales claim ought to be dis
posed of one way or another AS 1t Ia
at present the unpaid claim is a stigma
upon the state and the citizens as wen
as the law makers.
The fee system is another most i'm
portant- matter. and, like the others
named, affects the entire people.
While there Is opposition to a change.
the opposition comes almost entirely
from those that are getting the fees.
The people want the fees abolished.
Governor Gilchrist's pet measure
getting rid of technicalities in the
courts is one of the most important of
all, but alas. seems destined to meet
death at the hands of the legislature.
Since the legislature has gotten
down to work we expect all of the
above named bills and measures to be
acted upon. The time is short, but
they have loafed long enough and the
people want results.
Aside from the general bills there
are number Of local bills which are
quite important, but the general bills
are far more important and should
take precedence over the others.

Sugar and Bests

The Sterling papers tell that COM
mittcc is in Washington looking after
the interests of the beet growers and
do what they can to place information
in the hands OF congress so that body
need not ignorantly pass Legislation
hostile to the growers of beets.
This is undoubtedly proper and right.
We want nothing done that will inJure
any interest anywhere in the country,
but in our humble opinion there are
some abuses nearer home that need
correcting. We are told that in spite
of the large yields of sugar this year
from beets and the very high prices
prevailing, the consumer living in the
immediate. vicinity Of the sugar facto-
res here in Colorado had to pay the
same price. We are told that if Il
grocer at Sterling wanted to get sugar
at the factory he could do so, but he
had TO pay the Denver price and add
freight from Denver to Sterling,
Thus the farmer reaps no advantage by
being close u the fields of production,
while the high price OF coal and lumber
Is explained by the distance we live
from the mines and forests. 1t is 4
poor rule that will not WORK both WAYS
In the case Of the sugar the consum-
or pays for shipment to Denver and
back, Il service which is never per
formed. Who gets it we do not know.
But some one is getting something for
nothing. II is wrong. The people
know 1t is wrong. We presume the
jobbers and railroads are responsible for
the outrage, bnt the sugar interests
are most likely to suffer in the absence
OF knowledge on the subject and they
will be wise to try To remedy the EVIL
before the people turn on them, think
ing them the responsible party.
Let the committee do what they can
for the good Of themselves at Wash-
ington, and then let them return home
and get busy to relieve the people of
some of the injustice found here at
home.
