Strong Movement Already I'm
der Way at Washington
To Force Nomination of ROOse-
velt for President.
TO SAVE THE PARTY.
His Backers Declare No Other
Republican Can Win.
The Colonel Is Said to Be Will
ing to Run.

Washington, May 10.-That a strong
movement is on to force the renomina-
| ton of Col. Theodore Roosevelt for
president in 1912, is the highly inter-
esting information that has developed
here.
Back of this movement are some of
the leading Republicans in congress.
AS yet, the movement has not taken
any organized form, so far as can be
learned. But it has gone far enough
so that in recent days Colonel Roose-
velt has been consulted about it by
men high in the councils of the Repub-
Hcan party.
Not only is this the case, but it is
known that Colonel Roosevelt, though
refusing to get in the race and become
an aVoWed candidate for the Repubii-
can nomination, has made it plain that
he would not refuse the nomination if
it came to him.
In other words, his attitude, as de-
scribed here, is that he would regard
nomination by the Republican party
as a call to duty and he would not
shrink from it.
That some of, the leading insurgents
in congress and some of the leading
regulars as well, want Colonel Roose-
welt to be the nominee is positively
known. They declare frankly that he is
the only man in sight who can save
the Republican party IN 1S1z from
sweeping defeat.
One of the most prominent regulars
in the senate declared today that none
but Roosevelt could prevent the de-
feat of the Republican party in 1912.
On the other hand, it is known that
one of the most progressive Republi-
cans in congress recently conferred
with Roosevelt and urged him to allow
the use of his name.
Without disparaging President Taft
it is unquestionably the view of large
number of leading Republicans that if
he is renominated he will be defeated
Statements of this sort can be heard
from the capitol every day. The feeling
among most Republicans is an ex-
tremely gloomy one az TO the 1912 out
look and if a Moses can be found he
would be pressed into service
So far as progressive senators are
concerned, while a number of them
would welcome Roosevelt's nomination,
thew hesitate to say so, lest they give
offense to the friends of Senator La
Toilette.
The president nominated Fred S. Haz-
elton to be reappointed postmaster at
Norton Kan. Charles G. Webb was
also nominated to succeed himself as
postmaster at Stafford.
Fourth-class postmasters appointed
for Kansas: John P. Gadberry, Opolis;
William L. Wolverton, Montana.

BIRD MAN KILLED.
Fifty Feet Up, He Pitched Head First
From Aeroplane.

San Antonio, Tex, May 10.-Lieuten-
ant George NJ. E. Kelly of the Thirtieth
infantry, U. S. A, was killed this morn
ing in a fall from Curtiss aeroplane
at Fort Sam Houston.
He was making a flight and when
about fifty feet from the ground shot
forward from his seat landing on his
head. His skull was fractured and he
died in a few moments without regain
ing consciousness.
Kelly was a pupil of Glenn Curtiss
in aviation and came here about three
weeks ago from San Diego, Cal, where
he received his first lesson. It is be-
lieved the accident was caused by the
unexpected starting of the engine
while Kelly was making a landing.

Committee Clerks to Blame for Errors

Albany, n. Y, May 10.-Errors in
the printing of legislative bills have
been so frequent during the present
session of the New York state legisla-
ture that the senate printing commit
tee is conducting an investigation.
The state printer told the committee
that the majority of the committee
clerks DO not understand their busi-
ness and that some of their copy is
''frightful.' There are one hundred
errors on the part of the politicians to

GUARANTY LAW.
Meets With Obstacles in State of
Oklahoma.

Sentinel, Ok, May 10.-The anxiety
that. has developed among many state
bankers in Oklahoma over the opera
tions of the deposit guaranty system
is expressed in a circular issued by the
First National bank of this place,
which recently gave up its charter as
the Citizens State bank and incorpor-
ated as a national bank. The circular
says in part:
1.-The First National bank of Senti-
mel has no wish to disparage the Ok
lahoma guaranty law, nor to offend
its sincere friends: every man is en-
titled fairly to his own opinion. The
owners of this bank feel, however, that
the history of the guaranty law I'M Ok
lahoma reevals danger to banks op-
time might irreparably weaken the sol
vent condition of state banks and
bring conditions upon depOsitors that
would be deplorable.
1.-THE guaranty law has received it's
experimental trial during a period of
phenomenal prosperity and at a time
when there was no financial panic, yet
the guaranty fund has been more than
exhausted and state bankers called
upon to pay assessments that in the
aggregate have impaired the capital
stock of a number of banks, while
throughout the state are banks, owned
by honest, capable bankers, whose sur
plus and profits are gone and the banks
left in the situation of doing business
without compensation to their owners.
However honest. however capable he
may be, no state banker has assurance
under the present guaranty law that
his bank will not be drained to pay
the losses of the rogue and the incom-
petent banker"
The Kansas bank guaranty law is
regarded as a safer and better law
than that of Oklahoma. A failure of
the law in the state south of us does

Occasional firing was heard from

MAN
NOTES GROWTH
ALBERT {. PACE, ATTORNEY FOR
FRANK PENToN, VISITS PENSA-
COLA AFTER THREE YEARS
AND FINDS NEW CITY.

Albert E. Pace, of Dothan. Ala, who
is defending Frank Penton in his trial
for murder in the federal court, which
is in session now in this city, is very
much impressed with the growth of
Pensacola since his last visit to this
city several years ago. Mr.. Pace has
been coming to Pensa cola ever since
he was a boy and has watched it's
growth with great deal of interest.
The new hotel, new office buildings
and the paved streets were agreeable
surprises to him when he arrived here
this week. He says that the Deep
Water City is well thought of by the
people in the towns up in his section
of Alabama and if there was only di-
rect railroad connections he thinks
Pensacola and that Alabama country
would be mutually benefited.
I'VE would like very much to have
the Central of Georgia extend it's line
from Florala on to Pensacola" said
Mr.. Pace. Pensacola would then be
pra ctically as near to Dothan as
Montgomery now is and we would
have a wholesale supply city in a sea-
port with the benefit of water trans
portation.'
Mr.. Pace is one of the leading law
yers in Alabama, having an extensive
practice in his home state and in
Florida. While here he is stopping at
the San Carlos.

tunities of mental and spiritual life
and growth without which no people,
as nations or as individuals, may at
tain a full and perfect development of
their powers.
Disasters here and there We have
had, but they have not been such as
were far-reaching in their conse-
quences. and they have been the means
of teaching us more clearly the great
lessons of human sympathy. charity
and love. We are realizing daily that
the great brotherhood of men means
something. Look about us, and we see
the thought growing stronger and
spreading farther each day. which was
planted long ago by The Nazeren
that men should do to you, do ye even
so to them,' and, again. 'Inasmuch as
ye do it unto one of the least of these,
ye do it unto Me-"

sauce and white linen and cut-glass to
get up q real Thanksgiving dinner. 4
piece of bread and cup of water with
the spirit of Christian peace and love
may make such feast as even a king
might envy.
AS nation, we seem to be growing
into these greater thoughts, this high
er life. We are learning to more turly
weigh and value men and things.
Thankful? OF course we are, and
may God help us to be more truly so.
Our crosses could never be heavier
than the one Christ bore, our griefs
never deeper than Gods love could
reach, our losses never so great that
God could give no compensation. We
cannot stray beyond the watchfu1 care
of our Heavenly Father, and SO we
have great reason to be glad and
thankful, helpful and charitable.

BUSTER BROWN is
HERE WITH HIS DOG
The Pair Are Now Guests of the Nc

The great and only Buster Brown"
with his famous dog chum, "Tige," is

1t will cause great Joy to Young
America" to learn that Buster" and
"Tige" will appear at McMillan's to-
morrow afternoon. And the antics
they will cut up will rejoice the little
ones hearts.
It is like cutting out pictures from
r. z. Outcault's famous drawings and
endowing them with life. "Old folks, ="
however, will find a reason for this
unique display. Buster" and "Tige"
demonstrate the durability of the

to tear apart these apparently indie
structible articles of wear, 1t seems a
good conclusion that the stockings are
made of good materials.
In private life Buster is Major

his own and is five feet tall, but plays

Take Your Choice
Beauty or Wines.

Every woman wants to be beautiful;
many want to drink wines and liquors,
but to the young girl who would be
should be a warning message because
the stage beauty of fifty summers says
she who drinks wines cannot be beau
tiful, and she ought to understand the
beauty subject.
Here it is in Miss RusselFs own
words: THE girl who goes out into
the world must choose, not only be-
tween her beauty and liquor, but her
career as well. Among my friends, the
most of whom are business and pro-
fessionai women, I do not know one
who drinks even glass Of the lightest
wine with her meals. The successful
business woman can no more be adj
dicted to the use of alcohol than the
successful man."
A woman who has Travelled the
roads over which the famous actress
has gone certainly knows her subject,
for in her contact with women of the
stage she has had ample opportunity
to judge for herself, and those who
know say that she has profited from
observation.
Miss Russell has had a remarkable
eareer-and many husbands. too-but
the wine suppers and the fast life she
has left for other to enjoy. Miss Rus
sell has been welded to her art, even
more securely than she has been to
her husbands, and her advice to those
who would be beautiful might be fol-
lowed by the young girls of today who
are running their beauty and future in
the occasional wine glass.

CHILDREN INJURED
Ordinary Cathartics and Pills and
Harsh Physic Cause Distressing
Complaints.

You cannot be over careful in the
selection of medicine for children.
Only the very gentlest bowel medicine
should ever be given, except in emer-
gency cases. Ordinary pills, cathartics
and purgatives are apt to do more
gripping, nausea and other distressing
after effects that are frequently
misunderstanding.
We personally recommend and
guarantee ReXall Orderlies as the
safest and most dependable remedy,
which We know, for constipation and
associate bowel disorders. We have
such absolute faith in the virtues of
this remedy that we sell it on our
guarantee of money back in every in
stance where 1t fails to give entire
satisfaction, and we urge all in need
of such medicine to try it at our risk
ReXaIl Orderlies are eaten Just like
candy, are particularly prompt and
agreeable in action, may be taken at
any tie, day or night; do not cause
diarrhoea, nausea, gripping, excessive
1ooseness, or other undesirable effects
They have a very mild but positive
action upon the organs with which
they come in contact, apparently act
ing as regulative tonic upon the re-
Taxed muscular coat of the bowel, thus
overcoming weakness, and aiding to
restore the bowels to more vigorous
and healthy activity,
Rexall Orderlies commonly COM
pletely relieve constipation, except Of
course when of a surgical character
They also tend TO overcome the ne
cessity of constantly taking laxatfves
to keep the bowels in normal condi-
ton. Three sizes of packages, 10
cents, % cents, and so cents. Remem-
Der, you can obtain Rexail Remedies
in Pensacola only at our Street.-The

The lad is q fugitive wanted on the
