WILL INCREASE
VALUATION Of
CITY PROPERTY
BOARD DECIDES TO
ASSESS UPON A HIGHER BASIS
ALL PROPERTY ON PALAFox
STREET FROM MAIN STREET
NoRTH-TAx LEVY is. FIXED.

Believing that the present valuations
upon which the assessments are made
are entirely too low, the board OF
county commissioners in special ses-
sion yesterday morning decided to in
crease the valuation of ali property on
Palafox street from Main street north
A small increase in the valuation will
increase the revenue of the county
considerably without making 1t neces-
sary to increase the rate of taxation.
According to the commissioners, the
county has for several years been
assessing the Pslafox street property
referred to upon a much lower valua-
ton than the city has set upon the
same property and the increase will
not place the county valuation above
the city valuation upon this property.
After reviewing the tax rolls the
board decided to levy tax of IA Ia
mills, which is the same as the rate
fixed upon last year. The state rate
is IL mills, which brings the total
up to % mills on the dollar.
The board will meet again the first
Monday in August to hear the com
plants Of property holders as to the
valuation of their property.

Detroit, Mich, July 3.-Hughie
Jennings, manager of the Detroit I'll
gers, will have to get better work out
of his men or walk the plank. That
is the ultimatum that has gone out to
him from Messrs. Navin and Yawkey,
the owners of the club. Hugh hasn't
made good this year. He has failed,
and said club owners are getting eX-
cited. Not the club owners alone, but
the fans. They're all clamoring for
his scalp.
The principal trouble with the Tiger
leader seems to be that he has lost his
power to command as we'll as lead his
men. They have lost their interest in
baseball, and the result may be seen in
their lowly position in the American
league.
Jennings declares his willingness to
leave Detroit If the owners of the club
want him no longer. Il am as much
dissatisfied with the club as anyone
else" he said recently. Il know that
we're not going right. I am and will
continue to give the club owners the
best that 1 possess. / can do no more.
If they so desire l will gladly move
out of the way so that someone else
may take my place"
Under the existing conditions 1t is
practically certain that Jennings will
leave the club at the close of the sea-
son, II not before then. Doubtless he
would refuse to stay in view of the
general feeling here which exists
against him.

to do so 10 order to assist in solldify
ing public opinion on matters of i'm
portance.
IN the first place, 1 believe that the
educational system in Pensacola could
be improved by giving closer attention
to civics, bringing the children of the
city to know at least as much about
the city and its activities as they do
about some distant region like the
Desert Of Sahara. I will guarantee
that the average child is better ac-
Quainted with the days and dotngs Of
Queen Elizabeth and of our George
Washington than he IS with the events
of 1912, and particularly the events Of
1912 in the city of Pensacola itself
The create number of young children
will live and work in Pensacola, there
fore, in Justice to them they should re-
ceive in their early years a good work
ing idea of what Pensacola is, how ii
came to be- what improvements have
been made, how these improvements
were accomplished, who accomplished
them, and what future prospects there
are for this city in it's relation to the
nation, the trade of the world. and
the possible commercial supremacy
of the United States. If in connec-
ton with civic duties there could be
some sort of reward offered that would
permit successful students to be guests
of the city in a tour of its interesting
points, your educational system would
be bringing into existence a body Of
citizens who knowing Pensacola would
believe in il, and who taking inspira-
ton from the things done might be
expected to pledge themselves to the
service of rhe municipality when their
turn came.
There is another educational fea-
ture that deserves your very serious
consideration. 1t is useless to think
of approaching the trade conquest of
Spanish American countries unless
Spanish is written and spoken. Il is
also largely useless to think of trade
conquest unless conditions of trade are
understood. Therefore, in the higher
classes Of your educational system
there certainly should be room pro-
vided for specializing on a study Of
South America, its language, it's
topography, its difficulties of transpor-
tation, and its commercial interests.
Thus you viii be preparing young men
to build the commercial importance Of
Pensa cola in its relation to South
America, from which continent the
gulf ports have much to expect"

CONE TOLD EN- ABOUTIT
From the New York Evening Sun.

Storm and strife produce masterful
men, and nowhere more conspicuously
than in national conventions.
Garfield and Bryan sprang to great
ness, each by a single speech Inger-
soil and Bourke Cochran inscribed
their names deeply upon the tablets of
oratorical fame with speeches deliver
ed in the heat Of battle-the former
with his ''Plumed Knight" speech for
Blaine, and the latter when he spoke
for New York against Grover Cleve-
land in 1892, capturing wild and an
tagonistic audience in the early morn
ing hours and holding them spell
bound.
Yesterdays Democratic national con-
vention, at the period of widest dis
order, found it's master in Cone John
son of Texas. He was the unquestion
ed oratorical hero of the day, eclipsing
even Bryan in his dominance over the
audience.
After Theodore A. Bell announced
that he would not support Bryan, the
man who gave him national promi-
nence four years ago, the crowd. al
ready worked to great excitement by
the fierce fight waged by the Ne
braskan, became uncomfortable. They
hooted Bell, jeered him and yelled
Hearst" derisively. But moment
at time was he allowed to speak, and
finally, with an appearance of utter eX-
haustion, he closed.
Then John J. Fitzgerald, \the New
York Congressman who led the seven
teen Democrats to the rescue of Can
non two years ago, took the stand for
Parker. Fitzgerald never made that
speech Once he began and the up
roar. with cries Of 'Tammany!" Can
non rule!' Traitor" rising high above
all, became deafening. He appealed to
Chairman Mack and Chairman Mack
was helpless. Again and again Fitz-
gerald tried to make himself heard,
but in vain. Then he surrendered.
A moment after Cone Johnson took
the platform, while the disorder was
at its height, and a moment after that
quietness reigned. Tall, lean, rather
classic of feature and with a voice like
q bell, his first words won the crowd
and his next compelled respect
The forty delegates from the state
Of Texas in this convention represent

resentatives at Washington and repre-
sent twenty votes in the electoral col

ton he began. And continued:
Texas asks nothing except that her
mistaken loyalty to the party shall en-
title her to that respectful hearing
which every Democrat will readily
yield to her matchless record.
The progress of human government,
like the course of nature, does not
run in a steady stream, but in waves.
The blood does not course through
veins in a constant flow, but by heart
beats. The tides yonder rise and fall

sleep to wake again.
when he whose picture hangs over
there (Jeffarson) was eletced president
1t was a new blow struck for freedom
OF thought, speech and religion. The
rugged figure of Andrew Jackson stood
for the majesty of the law and the su-
premacy of the constitution. The
gaunt form and pathetic face of Abra-
ham Lincoln figured the downfall of
human slavery and the perpetuation Of
the American union.

in the city limits is unusual pro-
vision. Your plans of scattered parks
belongs not to a small city, but a great
one. The unexpected appearance OF
sidewalks where at present there are
no feet to use them is prophecy. Far
from the center, I find perfect roads
of vitrifei brick and granitoid laid
down with a liberality so far in ad-
vance Of immediate needs as to be-
speak a great metropolis, rather than
a supposedly struggling gulf port. The
determination to hold against all en-
croachments the important avenues
north and south and east and west in
the center of the city, means that you
will secure distinctiveness for all
time.
ct do not wish to expand these COM
ments unnecessarily, yet 1 feel that
one final reference should be made.
Half a century from now, the extra
ordinary acts of your legislature of
1899 in permitting the city to acquire
and to own great stretches of water
front, will be regarded as one of the
most important steps ever taken
consciously or unconsciousIy for a
greater Pensacola.
If after speaking in this manner, it
might be permitted for me to make
one or two suggestions, would desire

Bryan has led a revolution in thought,
lasting as the republic itself.
Fellow Democrats, the tide is com
ing in again. It is the high tide of
Democracy. It was heard in the cleo
lions of 1910, which resulted in giving
US the house in congress and which
would have redeemed the senate. 1t is
the cry to be restored to Democratic
equality-the cry of the toiling mil
lions not 10 be robbed of that which
their hands produce. The cry against
the theft of Republican tariffs; the cry
against the shameless purchase of the
seats of power for privilege; the cry
of rage that the peoples government
is wrested from them to become the
instrument of their oppression.
The democracy can not loiter on the
shore. Let us boldly put our ship to
sea and that of the Republicans will
be lost in the mingled screams of the
weltering tempest and plunging waves
of the nations rebuke.
why should we stop to quarrel over
the questions who began the clash
which is now precipitated? I care not
who began it. Whether by Mr.. Bryan
interfering when he should have re-
manned silent or by the committee in
forcing upon the convention the name
Of Judge Parker, who, in the eyes of
the country. is conspicuous reac-
tionary.
This one thing we know and that
is enough The fight is on and it
is contest between Bryan on one side
and Wall Street on the other"
Johnson's power over the crowd
grew as his effort developed. The
voice rang clear, the tall, slender
frame swayed dramatically as the Pc
RODS rounded out, the face lighted up
with intense conviction. When he
reached his peroration and hurled at
the audience the alignment Of battle as
he saw it. they rose to their feet in
roaring, spontaneous cheers.
Johnson has been big man in Texas
for years, and in the last four has
been in the front of the anti-Bailey
movement there. In 1908, when the
Standard Oil connections were first
charged against Bailey, Cone johnson
was picked to make the fight against
him for delegate at-large to the DEN
yer convention. Bailey won by a small
majority, but he had declined an invi-
tation to a joint debate with John
son.
Cone Johnson was born in Georgia
in 1860. He was educated at Emory
college. Oxford, Ca, and at Peabody
college, Nashville, Tenn. In 1880 he
moved to Texas, and settled in Tyler,
where he has since practiced law. He
went to the legislature in 1887 and
served until 1891.
Politics claimed part Of his time in
the years after. Following his defeat
by Bailey four years ago, he settled
down to help lead the anti-Bailey fight
and this year he was elected as dele
gate at-large to the convention by the
largest majority won in the campaign
and became chairman Of the delega-
ton.
Mr.. Johnson married a Texas woman
twenty years ago, and she sat with
the delegation from that state yes
terday while her husband made his
speech.

NEGLECT THE CARE OF YOUR SCALP AND
YOUR HAIR WILL BECOME A DISGRACE

The hair is more exposed and hence
more liable to accumulate dust and
dirt than any other portion of the
body.
In spite of this the hair receives, as
a rule, the least attention and no real
effort is made to keep it healthy.
If the dandruff germ is allowed to
work unmolested and the scalp be-
comes crusted with dirt accumuIa-
lions, one may expect the hair to die
and fall out. There is no cause for

SUEING CITY OF
OMAHA, NEBRASKA
Wall Street Banking Concern Claims
City Owes $4,000 on Account
of Misrepresentation. Concerning
Bonds.
BY Associated Press.

New York, July "a suit against
the city of Omaha, Neb, has been
started in the state supreme court
here by Clarence H. Venner, of c. H.
Venner & Co., a Wall street banking
concern, whose complaint charges that
the city of Omaha owes him $4,000
because he bought its bonds to the ex-
tent of 100000 on alleged misrepre-
sensations sent broadcast. in a circular
said to be issued by Omaha and dis
tributed by Fred II. Cosgrove, comp
troller of that city.
Venner states in his complaint that
the representation in the circular as
to the assessed property in the city
of Omaha and the tax rate are fraudu-
lent. Had the representations made
been true, he says, he would have
been able to sell the bonds within
thirty days at a profit of $4,000. He
sues for the $4,000 anticipated profit
and the $4,000 advanced in part pay
ment for the bonds.
