While several of the members were
unable to be present in person. they

meeting was a full one, and much i'm
portant business was transacted.
The monument is almost completed;
only a few finishing touches remaining
and the work Of laying the concrete
pavement and the iron railing around
it. Arrangements were made for hav-
ing this work done at once and to

Pensacola People Should Not Wait

The appalling death-rate from kid

fact that the little kidney troubles are
usually neglected until they become
serious. The slight symptoms give
place to chronic disorders and the suf-

Helping to Make the
Courts Efficient.

The Journal has always contended
that the lawyers of Florida and other
states are practically entirely to blame
for the dragging of the cases in the
courts and the employment of tech
nicalities in their practice when the
lawmakers never contemplated such
tactics in the beginning.
Evidently Judge Call. OF the circuit
court in Jacksonville, was of the same
opinion when he issued the following
notice:
All members of the bar are earnest
ly requested to meet me In the court
room on Friday morning, August 18th,
at $3.50 o'clock. to discuss and decide
upon some means by which the trial
of causes in the Circuit Court may be
expedited. r. M. CALL, Judge.
We suppose. the lawyers will coop
crate with Judge Call to expediate
matters and enable the court to get
through with the work planned for
this session. This time-killing bust
ness in the courtroom is something the
Judges and the lawyers should try to
eliminate. The Journal. congratulates
Judge Call on his timely move.

The only time the Journal drags
down the dignity of the profession
is when our ball team of thorough
breds agree, for the sake of charity,
to mingle on the diamond with the
yellow streaked, razer- backed convul-
sions of the News team. When we get
through with them their eyes pop out
and they look like a greasy spot with
out the grease, yet Mr.. Felkel, who
crawled into a dark corner of his desk
the day of the last slaughter, has
showed little enough judgment to al
low some misfit to again challenge us
to do the job over again. Well, you
are on, and may the Lord be merciful
to you. The Journal players haven't
any conscience.

The Expensive
Monetary Commission.

Senator Cummins, of Iowa, voiced
the sentiments of a majority of the
American people when he made a
tary commission, headed by former
Senator Aldrich and composed largely
of repudiated public officials and for
mer members of the national con-
gress.
Senator Cummings wants the COM
mission to make it's report by De-
cember 4 next, and after that report
TO be dissolved. He charges the COM
mission with unnecessary extrava-
the result of it's investigations and
Senator Hepburn, of Idaho, asserted
that from both a partisan and nation
al standpoint the original appointment
of the commission was a mistake.
Senator Burton, a member of the
commission, acknowledged that the
body probably had been extravaganza
To remedy this he said he would
offer an amendment disseminating al
once the salaries of those members
of the commission who are not now in
congress. This would reduce the ex-
penses of the commission by $4,000 q
year. as eleven of the eighteen mem
bers of the commission are former
members of congress. Active mem
bers Of congress, who also are on the
commission, receive no extra compen-
sation.
Senator Burton expressed the opin-
ion, however, that the commission
should report by next session and be-

EMPLoYE OF NEW YORK STREET
CLEANING DEPARTMENT RE-
COUNTS EXPERIENCES IN CON-
NEcTIoN WITH ADMIRAL TOGO.
Special to the journal.

New York, Aug. 15.-As bearing on
the remarkable development of Japan
| in the last half century, the meeting
| the other day between Admiral Togo.
| the mikado's naval hero who sent the
Russian fleet to the bottom of the
japan Sea, and Timothy Whelan, an
employe Of the street cleaning depart
| ment, was significant and interesting.
Whelan was a member of the crew of
the old clipper ship Benefactor, be-
longing to the father former Mayor
Seth Low Of this city. This ship was
one of the first vessels to open up
commercial relations between Japan
and the rest of the world. While off
the coast of South America on it's way
| around the Horn to the orient 1t ran
in with the Confederate warship Ala
bama under Admiral Semmes during
| the civil war between the states and
had close shave from being sent to
| the bottom but managed to outfoot it's
pursuer.
I'VE had to take a shipload of
| Chinese from Hong Kong to Japan to
| teach them how to dry the tea and
prepare 1t for shipment" said Whelan
recounting his old experiences. 1--WE
had lot of trouble, too, in getting our
cargo. When we were in Yokohama
the first steamship the Japanese ever
owned came into port from Europe.
AS soon as the papers were signed re-
leasing all the Europeans that COM
prised her crew and who had brought
her safely into port the Japanese Or
dered every soul ashore with the ex-
ception Of their own countrymen. They
regarded the steamship with the Gu
riosity Of a child with its first toy and
were very jealous of their ownership
of the vessel.
Then when all foreigners and
| strangers were put off their vessel, the
Japanese took the steamship out to
| sea and navigated her from the start
all expected that the Japanese would
they had been crafty, and had been
| studying the engines all the time she

vessel returned the following day safe
and sound. The way the japanese
handled her showed us that those boys
had learned their new business well.
q, 1--WE had four captains on the Bene-
| factor on the voyage to Japan, Capts.
Barry, Cornish and Davis and another
whose name I do not recall. It was
| necessary to have four commanders

low fever in Shanghai in 1860 at a
| time when the sea was alive with

ADMIRAL YOUNG
RIDES ELK GOAT
POPULAR NAVAL OFFICER BE-
COMES A FULL PLEDGED MEN,
Der OF THE ANTLERED TRIBE
UNFORESEEN CIRCUMSTANCES
ALWAYS THWARTED PREVIOUS
ATTEMPTS.

Admiral Lucien Young, commandant
at the Pensacola navy yard, last night
rode the big Angora goat which the
Pensacola Elks lodge had trained
especially for him and, they say, he
came through with all colors flying.
This was about the fourth of fifth
time that the admiral had made all
arrangements for initiation into the
mysteries of the antlered tribe, but on
each previous occasion he was pre-
vented from experiencing the joys and
sorrows of the initiatory ride by quick
orders from Washington, accident OF
storm.
He is now, however, a member In
good standing in Pensacola Lodge No
497, B. P. o. E., and If he appears
somewhat worn out today his friends
will know the cause thereof.

valuable advice.
The national monetary commission
is one in which The Journal never
took much stock from the beginning
That it has proven a failure is nc
r ere than we anticipated. We cannot
see where a commission generated by
Aldrich and where the majority OF
the membership is made up Of men
whom the people asked to be re-
tired from public service can recon-
mend legislation which will be &C
ceptable to the people. The special
interests may be satisfied to accept
their recommendations, and while 1t
might be possible for them to recon-
mend something altogether good, their
reputation Is against them.
That the commission has been loaf
ing on the Job, time has proven, and
that It has been extravagant the
members, themselves, admit, which
should UNIT them for their positions.
Admitting, for arguments sake
alone, that the monetary commission
is desirable, then the members of con-
gress should make up the member

other members are trying to abolish
