Why Not Exact Bonds
From Commissioners?

At the last session of the legislature,
Senator Hilburn of Putnam county,
introduced bill providing for the ex-
action of official bonds from the county
commissioners. This bill failed to
pass. 1t is probable that similar bill
will be introduced at the next regular
session of the legislature and it is to
be hoped it will meet with a better
fate than Senator Hilburn's bill.
The commissioners have absolute
and supreme. control of all the money
collected and expended by the counties,
and it seems only fair that the tax
payers should be protected from wan
ton and extravagant expenditures by
requiring each commissioner to give a
sufficient bond to cover any possible
Misrepresentation of funds. At present
these officials are responsible only I'M
der the general laws providing pun
ishment for malfeasance in Office.

Rising Tide of Business
Is Nation Wide.

Official reports Of the department OF
commerce and labor give further evil
dence of the rising tide of business
that is sweeping the country.
According to the statements made
by the shipping interests, there is
every indication that the nation is on
the eve of good times that give
promise of equaling those that existed
prior to the Roosevelt panic of 1907.
1t is said that the demand for freight
carriers for imports and exports has
been unusually large.
This promised increase in shipping
business means much for the pros
perity of the whole country, but has
peculiar significance to Pensacola,
owing to the great shipping facilities

islature cannot deprive its successor
Of the power of revocation.
This far we have preferred to de-
eide the case upon the broad ground
above stated, and, therefore, consider
ed It as if the term of Office enjoyed
by the appellant was what he claims
1t to have been-a term for life
In my brief showing the powers of
congress over money, this case on the
recall seemed to fit into the present
discussion Of that question, so I send
it in.
Some think it would be destructive
OF our form of government to reverse
the decisions Of the supreme court at
the ballot box.
Yes, If we are an aristocracy. No, if
we are a democracy.
Every time new law is enacted re-
pealing an old law the decision (under
the old law Of the supreme court are
reversed.
Many people think it is preferable
under our form of government to re-
peal the obnoxious laws and decisions
at the ballot box so as to save the
extra expense of doing it through the
cartridge box.
I am one of these because just a
half century ago today lost an arm
in cartridge box election. Let US do
these things when they should be done
in a sane, prudent but forcible man
ner at the ballot box.

all OF the hairs have been removed

Cynthia-Removing wrinkles from
the face is really a cinch. 1t isn't
necessary to wear a mask, although
you can do this if you think it will
improve your looks to any great extent.
The simple way is to grasp the skin
firmly an inch or two northeast OF
the wrinkle and pull it taut where the
wrinkle was and iron with hot fiat
iron for several minutes. The meth
cd is the same as that used by tailors
in pressing trousers. When the wrin-
kle appears again the operation should
be repeated.
Lulu-We hardly know what to say
to you, Lulu. If nature placed wart
upon your nose, nature probably knew
what she was doing and YOU had bet
ter leave it alone. The only sure way
that we know of to remove a wart on
the nose so that it will not come back
is to hold the nose under dried beef
cutter. OF course, If you consider your
nose a valuable asset to your personal
appearance this treatment would be
rather expensive and drastic, but X

zette. Nescience is the state OF not
knowing, lack of knowledge, ignor-
ance. The same question has formed
itself in many mind in this con-
try. 1t really seems that there is no
position in which ignorance is so
easily hidden as in that of the bench.
What the English Judge says Of the
telephone may also be said of the
telegraph, steam railroad, steamship
and a thousand other modern necessi-
ties. People got long very well with
out them a hundred years ago. But
the man who gets along without them
today is hundred years behind the
times.
Any man in business who would
ignore these modern time-saving, dis
lance annihilating devices would soon
be bankrupt. Any lawyer practicing
before a court without availing him
self of these advantages would wiz.
few cases. But the judge may be
as far behind the times as he pleases,
and be as ignorant as he chooses, and
still hold his own.
The less Judge knows. the more
readily he can render his decisions
knowledge is confusing. 1t gives to
every question two sides. And in our
own country, at least, the less a judge
knows the less trouble he has with his
conscience in rendering decisions fav-
orable to the interests that place him
on the bench. Many judge seems
to know absolutely one thing. and that
is the corporation that secured his APP
pointment.
The judges job is one in which
people, not himself, suffer for his
ignorance. And however apparent his
ignorance is,>po remark can be made
about it without the mourning of a
severe penalty.
Taken all in all, the safest place in
the world for an ignorant man is the
bench. In no other position can one
safely be hundred years behind the
times.

The Judge and the
Telephone.

A judge in Birmingham, Eng, boasts
that he never used telephone. He
was unable to say exactly that he
had never seen one. He had OBJ
served one hanging up on the wall, but
he had never gone near it or used it,
and he would not know how to use
It.
The judge frankly confessed that he
aisliked the telephone and saw no
necessity for it. People did not need
It hundred years ago, and get
along very well without it, he said,
and he did not see why we want it
today.
Could he be regarded as anything
other than freak. this Judge might
be made the subject of an interesting
study
How do our judges acquire their
nescience?" asked the Birmingham Ga

No Talk of Panic
This Democratic Year.

AS far back as the memory of the
oldest inhabitant runs, panics, more or
less serious, have been in existence
during the presidential election years.
AS matter of fact most of these
panics have been without any legiti-
mate foundation as there is reason to
suppose most of them were brought
about by the protected and fostered
interests merely to influence the cleo
tons.
1t is generally believed that the
Democrats will be victorious this year.
At any rate It is conceded on all sides
that the odds are greatly in favor of
the election of woodrow Wilson presi-
dent and of the next congress being
Democratic. Yet the usual panic or
business depression has failed to ar
rive.
This should be an effective argument
against those pessimists who fear a
Democratic administration will bring
on hard times" BY every logical
reason the administration of Woodrow
Wilson should be the most prosperous
era in the history of the government
At any rate let us hope the election
Of a Democratic president. will bring
about nothing so disastrous to bust
ness as the Republican panic OF
1907-s.

the disturbing influences should be
crushed forever from his pathway.
The formation of hopeless and hap
less dissolution often seen on the
streets are the nysteriously foxy cid
bachelors and widowers who do all the
intricate stunts of exclusively finding,
measuring, appraising and condemn
ing many of the feminine forms and
fabrics. These are the gentlemen who
look deeply penetrating and solmenly
tricky straight into your soul. They
usually move alone and. look close I'M
der low pleading brow and hat until
something is caught. They enjoy all
the gossip that takes the starch" out
of good cultured folks. They talk much
about spring pullets" and call them
sweet little things" They do great
low things and bob up as philanthrop-
lists. They belong to the stag
gamblers clubs for quiet pollution and
graft. To them the churches are
stupid theoretically. These men are
tight wads" and never have any
money. They make dark-hour trips to
byway resorts, take along cards, booze
and few finer fabrics. These boys
are strong and brave. They do not
need the cowhide. 1t is all the fault Of
the mothers and fathers for not crush
ing and taking out of their reach all
these terrible alluring influences. They
simply serve to keep everybody guess
ing whether they will locate, dislocate
or dissolve. In fact these familiar
hightone specks of hapless dissolution
| should know how to bake pies and
sing Gentle Annie" They enjoy read
ing the society columns to see if any

wear is going. 1t would take two
columns to tell just why they still
thrive OF course there are excep-
tions. Some of them are fine fellows;
then why not look the world square
in the face? Boys, my old man" and
my old woman are the best friends
| you ever had on this earth. Respect
! them and their feelings. The first has
sometimes turned you down. The lat
ter never did. Both would die for you.
Then why not you live for somebody?
| Be men for their sake, for the coun-
try's sake, your sake, and Gods sake.
If you can't do this, go jump over
| board.
So let's all of us get our heads and
hearts together and do the right things
because it's right and the safest, hap
piest and best way to live here and
now. Be full-grown boys and men,
strong of character and purpose.
Just a few more don'ts. Don't marry
the girl nor tie to the man who be-
lieves in a double standard of morals,
If it's wrong for one. it's wrong for
the other. Don't spend 40 cents to 50
per day foolishly down town, then get
mad because they use too many
matches at the home. Don't wake
your boys before nine in the morning
because they were out all night getting
fresh air. Morning and afternoon air
is never good for boys.
Always remember that boys should
do as they please. They are strong
and brave and might have special
privileges even in the fiery furnace "
