BY this time Annie had grown sus-

Jealous? What do you mean?
No, he was not jealous. There was

The captain rose and began to pace

I!" exclaimed Annie with mingled
establishment and indignation. "Of

"Sure?" demanded the captain, eye
ing her narrowly,
Positive" said Annie firmly
The captain looked puzzled
"A woman called here last night to
see him." he said thoughtfully, and

Interrupting himself, he went quick
ly to the door of the apartment and
called to some one who was waiting
in the corridor outside. A boy about
IS years of age, in the livery of an
elevator attendant, entered the room.
The captain pointed to Anrle.
"Is that the lady?"
The boy looked carefully, and then
shook his head.
Don't think so-no, sir. The other
lady was great swell"

said:
"If you've no further use for me,

"Just one moment, Mrs. Jefries,N
he said.
The face of the elevator boy sud

it-Jeffries. / think that was the
name she gave, sir"
"Who?" demanded the captain.

IS PENSACOLA
BOOSTER NOW
ATLANTA MAN, WHO IS A FAITH
Full FOLLOWER OF SIR ISAAC
NEWTON, is PLEASED WITH
WEST FLORIDA FISHING AND
WITH PENSACOLA TOO.

Alonzo Richardson, head Of the
auditing and accounting firm of A.
Richardson & Co, Of Atlanta. who,
with his family, has been spending the
past ten days in this city and at Camp
Walton, returned to his home Wednes-
day night, confirmed West Florida
booster.
Mr.. Richardson expressed himself as
being well pleased with Pensacuia's
appearance as a commercial cent ar and
was very optimistic in his views as
to the city's future, which he says
looks exceedingly bright. He is a slave
to his rod and reel, however, and his
interest in this section has been more
thoroughly aroused by the phenomenal
fishing which ne has enjoyed while in
West Florida waters than by anything
else.
While at Camp Walton Mr.. Rich
ardson was easily champion Of the
hook and line brigade, his party re-
porting his having. caught in one day
the following prize assortment Of the
fnny tribe:
Eleven fine speckled trout, averaging
more than two pounds and some
weighing between 4 1-2 and pounds:
six big game reddish, the smallest of
which weighed slightly under five
pounds; several extra fine blue fish.
averaging about l 1-2 pounds; and to
cap the climax Of such fishing. a
horse mackerel which required the aid
Of all Mr.. Richardson's Iund of ex-
perience with game fish as well as all
Of his muscular 10 pounds to land.
Mr.. Richardson naturally thinks.
therefore, that this is Just the finest
country anywhere and expects to re-
turn next summer for longer stay.

What the Presidents
Veto Will Do.

Whenever real facts which deal with
human beings are offered to show
wherein a law is defective, right
straight is the phrase about sentiment
founced into ones face. This is a
day when commercialism is first in the
minds of many of the Lawmakers, and
the love for the almighty dollar is
paramount.
Be this as it may there are some
men, and thousands of them too who
still thank God that they have some
sentiment, and count the lives OF
children of greater worth than the
bank accounts OF the beneficiaries OF
the damnable tariff laws.
The Democrats have pleaded with
the voters for power sufficient to free
them from the clutches of the special
interests and enough power has been
granted to pass bills which. If signed
by the president, will work wonderful
changes for the betterment of the
poorer classes, and in no way take
from the rich what is rightfully
theirs.
In speaking of the Ubiquitous tariff
laws which now exist and which have
been remedied in part, but which will
more than likely be vetoed by Presi-
dent Taft, Congressman Fowler, of III.
inois, said:

RAILROADS TO
GIvELOWR RATES
ON EXHIBITS
HAVE AGREED TO RETURN ALL
ARTICLES SHIPPED ALONG THE
ROUTE THROUGHOUT FAIR
DISTRICT FREE OF CHARGE
OWNER OF EXHIBIT ONLY TO
PAY FREIGHT TO PENSACOLA.

Arrangements have been perfected
through the management of the Inter
state Fair whereby the farmers along
the P. & A. road and throughout the
fair district may bring their exhibits
to- the fair by only paying freight one
way. The proposition of the railroad is
for the owner CO the exhibit to pay
the freight on his stuff to Pensacola
and the railroad will return it free
of charge.
Mr.. Lillard, in conversation with a
representative of The Journal yes
terday afternoon, expressed himself as
very much pleased with this concession
on the part of the railroads and said
that he believed it would prove a
great inducement to the farmers to
bring exhibits to the fair and that he
thought a great many would now be
represented in the agricultural and
live stock exhibits who would not 9TH

Vardaman's Address
To Mississippi People.

Moved by a profound sense of graf
itude, I take this method of assuring
my friends of the great obligation
they have placed me under for their
generous support at the primary on
the first day of August, 1911
The campaign has been a long and
bitter one characterized by a degree of
acrimony which should have no place
IN political contest in the State of
Mississippi.
Perfect concord and harmony among
the white Democrats of this state is
vital to the future welfare of the
commonwealth.
To encompass my defeat, those who
opposed me have scrupled at nothing.
They have invaded the sacred pre-
cincts of private character, employed
means which in their calmer moments,
men of honor, courage and veracity
would have spurned.
The Executive function was one Of
the PRUDENTIAL agencies employed, and
Federal patronage was used for all it
was worth.
In the fierce fight of the contest
everything was lost sight of, save the
goal of mans ambition.
The ends were thought to justify
the means-"To win at any cost" was
the battle cry.
Personally, 1 have endeavored at all
times to remain within the realm of
legitimate discussion. In all of my
speeches, I avoided references to the
personal qualities and private charac-
ter of the men whose ambitions hap
pened to cross mine in that contest
I discussed only the great measures,
principles and policies which confront
ed the American people.
I will be pardoned for referring to it,
but one of the most gratifying fea-
lures of the campaign to me, now, is
that while I made a great many
speeches, and the feeling ran high,
there was never an overt act of dis
courtesy shown me by any of my au-
diences. Perfect order and decorum
chara cterized their demeanor at all
times, and an earnest desire to I'M
derstand the great problems was man
ifested at every meeting.
1 stated then that II would not have
the Office If it had to be won upon
the dement's of some other man." /
had no money to use improperly to
bring about the nomination. And If
I possessed the wealth of Croesus, /
would not have paid a penny to in
fluence vote or mislead a voter in
the contest.
I urged the pople to consider the
principles involved, dispassionately,
and let their ballots register the pa
triotic freeman's will.
That they did so, 1 have every rea-
son to believe.
Now, since I have been declared the
nominee Of the party and nothing but
death can prevent my election, want
to say to the people of Mississippi,
that so far as l am concerned the
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1911-08-18

dead past shall bury its dead.
My face is turned to the future-my
heart is in the work to be done. And
by the help of God, I am going to try
10 so live and act as their representa-
tive in the greatest law making body
on earth, that 1 will not cause them
TO regret the confidence reposed in me,
and the great honor conferred upon
me.
All the strength of mind, of heart,
and body I possess, I shall consecrate
TO the service of the people of Mis-
sissippi and America.
am going to ask the people Of
Mississippi to further help me by their
prayers and suggestions. I want a
united Democracy behind me to up
hold my hands that I may not leave
undone the things that should be done.
and on the other hand, at all times
to avoid doing the things that should
not be done. In the language Of Thos.
A. Kempis, May God give me the
prudence to avoid them that f1attereth
me, and to endure with patience them
that contradicteth me-"
To those who stood by me so Loyalty
in this contest, the day will never be
too cold or too hot, the road too long
or too rough for me to go to their as
sistance if they need me.
To those who opposed me, 1 want
them to know that / shall serve them
as their senator, with the same fidelity
that 1 shall serve those who voted for
me. And in the end / trust that may
so live to make them ell my friends.
| am going to be the senator for the
whole people of Mississippi, and not
for any particular faction.
Every class shall have protection at
my hands, in so far as 1t lies within
my power to protect them.
My political creed shall be, Equal
and exact justice to all, and special
favors to none"
The Islander and defamation which
has been heaped upon me, 1 can wen
afford to ignore.
Life is too short to spend harboring
hatred.
1 have long since concluded that he
who hates hurts himself. Hatred pois-
ons the heart, beclouds the judgment
and paralyzes the. nobler qualities OF
the soul.
I realize that. "As thou sowest, thou
shalt reap. Smite. and thou shalt
smart; serve, and thou shalt be
served. If you live and serve men, you
cannot by any hiding or strategon es-
cape the remuneration.
On the other hand, IF you live and
exploit and plumber men, you cannot,
by any hiding or strategon avoid pay
ing the bill to the uttermost farthing."
/ hope the bitterness engendered by
this campaign may be forgotten, and
all patriotic Mississippians will unite
under the guidance of an ALL Wise
and Just Providence to realize the
hope and fulfill the destiny Of the
founders of our government.

FINE REPORTS
FROM co. NJ
PENSAcoLA'S NEW MILITARY Or
GANIZATIoN RAPIDLY ROUND
ING INTO SHAPE-ANOTHE r
COMPANY BEING MUSTERED
IN.

That Pensacola will soon be able
to boast of a first-class military COM
pany is certain, as anyone who has
seen Company m" at work this week
can testify. Three nights each week
Capt. Acker, assisted by Lieutenants
Lurton and Lusk, have been putting
the men through stiff drill practice and
1t is doubtful if ever company of raw
material has made such rapid advance
nent as this has. During these warm
nights Capt. Acker has made use of the
fine paved streets to carry out his drill
practice and many hundreds of inter
ested citizens have had an opportunity
to see them at work. On every side
has been heard words of praise and
announcement for the fine showing
being made and this is helping to spur
the boys on to greater efforts.
Capt Acker has been ordered to take
Company M to the state encamp-
ment at Jacksonville and it is for this
that he and his men are working hard
as well as to have a creditable COM
pany. With but three months to pre-
pare for the encampment IL would have
seemed a hopeless task, but the ability
and willingness of his men have aided
unusually towards the result desired
and it now seems that he will realize
his determination to be ready for the
encampment. Company M contains
the flower of Pensacola's young man
hood and its future course viii be
watched with a great deal OF interest.
Monday and Wednesday nights are
regular drill nights and all interested
are invited to see and encourage them
in their work
Another company is being mustered
in at a rapid rate and 1t will soon be
organized and fitted out. 1t will serve
as a competitor for Company NJ and
thus each will serve as a spur y the
other. A few more men are needed
and these may get in the new COM
pany by reporting TO the officers Of
Company M"
