| New Orleans. - Fifteen million,
seven hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars hiss been added to the value Of
the Louisiana sugar crop since the
| winter months. An advance of cent
in price is equivalent to adding $7,OOO,-
900 to the value of the Louisiana crop
in it's present condition, and since the
winter months the price has moved
up 2Ac.
Not since 1889 has the price of
sugar approached anywhere near it's
present high water mark. Then
choice yellows brought 711-16c a
pound. Now the same grade of sugar
is bringing 6Ac a pound, and be-
tween these two dates the price has
hovered around SC and &c, with the
exception of the year after the civil
war, when the market was again put
on a high scale
The significance to Louisiana is
great. Louisiana this year will prob
ably produce, at the minimum, 100000
tons of cane sugar, against 100000
tons last year, and will sell the sugar
at price nearly Sc better than the
planter received twelve months ago.

KISSIMMEE. Fla, Sept. 10. -
That Sadie Marchant, the Shaker
ess, was killed with kindness,
is the verdict of the people OF
Osoeola county.
But In this little Florida town
all the conservatism of a country
village prevails. 1t is hard to get
anybody to say that Brother Egg
bert Gillette and Sister Elizabeth
Sears did right when the chloro-
formed Sadie Marchant.
1--WE are very, very sorry for
those people," Mrs. II. w. Thur
man, recognized social leader of
central Florida, said, "but," she
added, they committed serious
offense against the laws of man
and God"
That is the general feeling
throughout the county. Everybody

that the ends of Justice would be
met by a speedy pardon.

A. Rose, formerly a pastor of a

with much vehemence:

Elizabeth"
His wife, Mrs. Rose, is quite
sure that that man (Gillette)
did a Christian duty when he re-
lieved the sufferinss of the con-
sumptive girl in the only way
possible"
Most people here think that
Gillette will be convicted surely,
and that Sister Elizabeth, a grand
motherly sort of a woman, may
be acquitted, because of her age.
And, too, they expect that the
state board of pardons will be

THE SALVATION
ARMY CAN GIVE
INFORMATION
THOSE cHARITABLY INCLINED
SHOULD ACQUAINT THEM
SELVES WITH APPLICANTS BE-
FORE MAKING DONATIONS.

Parties who are charitably inclined,
but who wish to know the real merits
Of cases where applications are made
for assistance, can secure all the in
formation they desire by calling UP
the headquarters of the Salvation
Army. If the Army people have not
the information desired they will i'm
mediately go out and investigate the
case and make reports to the parties
desiring.
The local branch of the Salvation
Army is being supported by the peo-
pie of Pensacola and the captain in
charge feels that the service thus rem
dered is nothing more than what
should be done. Frequently cases
which are really unworthy come to the
attention of the Salvation Army beo-
pie, and 1t is against this class that
investigations are directed.
Recently a case of this character
came up. An aged woman who had
been receiving aid from the Salvation
Army, decided to go out and solicit for
herself. She did 50 and obtained con-
siderable cash. That night she and
her friends invested the amount in
liquor with the result that there, was
a glorious drunk for all.
There is hardly needy case in the
city with. which the Salvation Army
people are not familiar and are not
rendering aid,- and those who wish to
give can secure any information as to
conditions of poor people by simply
caliT.e up over the phone.

in Pensacola which should work to the
solution of the manufacturing problem.
Pensacola merchants need more trade
and ought to be willing to help pro-
mote new industries. The real estate
men have much to gain by new in
dustries and they cannot invest a, part
of their, money to better advantage
than to help promote them. The sur
rounding country needs a market for
the farmers to dispose of their products
and the landowners Of the country
ought to help promote manufacturing
industries. The wholesale grocers fur
nish the avenue for distributing the
manufactured articles and they may
help with profit to themselves the pro-
motion of industries which will furnish
employment to laborers and supply
them with stock to sell to the retail
merchants throughout this territory.
The Journal believes that If the
wholesale and the retail merchants,
the real estate men and the farmers
will get together. all of the industries
advocated by Mr.. Greenhut and a
mammoth canning plant may be estab-
lished in Pensacola in the near future.
They are worth going after.

If cough syrups would cure coughs
every time, it would not be necessary
for us to print this information, but
there are so many cases of chronic
bronchitis in town that have hung on
for months and years, we feel that we
must tell what we know about it.
1t is a positive fact that the only
right way to treat a cough is to use
q remedy that acts on the blood, such
as Vinol. our delicious cod liver and
iron preparation without oil.
This makes the blood rich and pure

so pleasant that even children like it.

Advice That
Should Be Needed.

Unless you have already read the
article by A. Greenhut, which appeared
in the Holiday Edition of The Journal.
suggestion is made only to those who
are interested in the welfare of PEN
sacola.
Mr. Greenhut deals with New In
dustries that Pensacola Should Have, :
and the things which he says are pos
SON doing all of the investing. He sim
plifies the question better than anyone
we have heard from so far, and we
believe that if Mr.. Greenhut will either
get the people together himself, or will
see to it that some one else does So,
the industries he speaks of may be
obtained within the next few months.
Pensacola is wholesale center.
The wholesale people are men inter-
ested in Pensa cola, and these are the
people who can do more to establish
profitable industries here than any
other class of people. Mr.. Greenhut
says:
Through a concert of action of the
wholesale merchants of Pensacola who
handle cigars, a cigar factory that
would employ several hundred hands
at renunerative wages could be estab-
lished at Pensacola, and would prove
profitable to investors in it. Not only
this, but such a factory would attract
other cigar manufacturers to Pensa
cola, Immediately upon its being dem
onstrated that the industry can be
made profitable here.
The consumption of washing pow
6ers in the Pensacola jobbing territory
is an enormous item, and a factory
for the manufacture of this commodity,
with the cooperation of the whole
salers Of Pensacola who handle it,,
could be made profitable to investors
and at the same time give employ
ment to hands that are now idle here,
Mr.. Greenhut deals with several
other things which are ours If we will
but go after them, such as bottling
vinegar, broom factory and canning
okra and oysters.
There is a happy situation existing

viii He Be
Fired Now?

When he was doing his best to keep
DR.. Wiley from serving the people
there was much said about Secretary
Wilson being asked to resign from the
department of agriculture. If the pub
lie mind had been considered, he would
have had to resign. but his friends
higher up desired it otherwise.
The secretary's recent utterances is
enough to make Mr.. Taft and his
friends kick him out and not give him
a chance to resign. Hear him: The
consumer pays a dollar for food the
farmer gets less than fifty cents for.
Who gets the rest?''
Just what made him say this no one
can imagine, unless it may be ac-
counted for by saying that man will
tell the truth in spite of himself, some
times.
Secretary Wilson is right. Statistics
bear him out, but this Information, if
the voters could be made to realize it,
will forever settle the tariff question.
This information will make the voters
elect men who believe in reducing the
tariff to a point SUFFICIENT only for OBJ
tanning revenue to run the govern
ment.
The farmer and the laboring man
are the ones to be benefited most by
a reductions in the tariffs, yet they
have voted blindly to enrich the special
interests.
Secretary Wilson's statement is true,
but it is enough to make him lose his
job with the persons who are attempt
ing to continue to fool the people.
