wide awake after a practically con
tinuous sleep of one hundred and five

on week day mornings, but who are
always ready to greet the dawn on

inexplcable perversity of nature, will
wonder how this Illinois sleeper got
through the fifteen-or-s so Sundays,
while comprehending that the bal

Practicing
What He breaches.

Some Of the papers which are at
tempting to discredit woodrow wilson
with their readers have said that he
was repudiated by his own people last
Tuesday. AS a matter of fact, moth
inr could have been farther from the
truth, and If he had been willing in all
probability he would have been en-
dorsed by the Democratic state con-
vention as presidential candidate for
the Democratic party.
He is a poor preacher who will not
practice what he preaches-and VII
son is a good preacher.
Through Governor Wilson'S efforts
New Jersey has a direct primary law
which gives the people an opportunity
to express themselves directly for
presidential candidates. There was a
motion made to endorse Wilson in the
convention and by Wilson's request
the motion was laid on the table. That
is how much he was repudiated.
He contended that the convention
called to consider other affairs had no
business endorsing anyone for presi-
dent, although he must have known
that such an endorsement would have
been of help to him in other states.
Can anyone say that the New Jersey
man is not hewing to the mark and is

FRIDAY. OCTOBER 8, 1911.
Why Pensacola
Is the Loser.

When every effort is made to pre-
eerve the health Of one city It is
rather discouraging when a neighbor-
ing one practically kills the good work
by jeopardizing the health Of its peo-
pie for financial gain.
We refer to banana ships being al
lowed to land IN Mobile and New Or
leans without being in quarantine long
enough to prevent the bringing in of
the yellow fever mosquitoes. The
Florida laws, II extended to the other
impossible for yellow fever to be
brought into this country, but with
these ships coming into other gulf
ports there is practically no use in
having such stringent laws in Florida.
Now Pensacola does not object to
losing the few dollars that the fruit
steamers would bring into this city
where they would surely come If the
laws were just as liberal-but when
Florida and Pensacola are making
every effort to keep the yellow fever
away It seems hard that all OF their
work should be practically killed by a
close seaport admitting the fruit
steamers without quarantine restric-
lions.
When the steamers went to New
Orleans the chances were not so great,
but now that a goodly portion OF this
trade will go to Mobile as a result of
the strike troubles in New Orleans.
there is no ADVANTAGE in Pensacola
having strict quarantine laws.
If yellow fever should happen to be
brought to Mobile from the tropical
islands, It would be practically i'm
possible to keep it away from Pen
sacola.
1t may readily be seen that Pensa-
cola is placed in a peculiar position
it's quarantine restrictions send the
trade to other ports with less restric-
tions and yet we are subjected to the
same dangers that we would be sub
ject to If the steamers landed at our
docks.
It 10 unfortunate that every one OF
the gulf and the south Atlantic states
cannot get together on the quarantine
restrictions to be placed upon the YES
sells coming from countries where the
yellow fever most frequently exists.

Washington, Dec. 11.-Walter
Houser, chairman Of the progressive
Republican League. in letter to Pres
ident Taft today, puts the issue of
nationwide primaries to name Re-
publican presidential candidate up to
the nations chief executive. Much
of the national Republican commit
tees time tomorrow will probably be
occupied with discussion of this
question.
Houser's letter urges President
Taft to approve the plan. He de-
clares that five states have provided
such primaries and sixth made le-
gal provision substantially to the
same end. He expects others to take
a similar action.
Il cannot forbear to say that / do
not believe that any Republican can
desire the presidential nomination,
unless it comes to him through the
support of the majority Of the Re
publicans in the country said
Houser.
The national committeeman are
arriving here today. 1t is believed
that Chicago is certain to get the
Republican national convention which
will nominate presidential candidate
in 1912. Acting Chairman John Hill
secretary Hayward and Frank Hitch
cock conferred with President Taft
today.
Harry Brown, the chairman of the
Ohio Republican state central com
mlttee, is demanding that Taft en-
dorse the presidential primary plan
in his native state Of Ohio. He de-
MED that the primary plan was the
beginning OF movement in favor OF
ex-President Theodore Roosevelt for
the 1912 nomination.
