NEW SHIP LINE
MAY DECIDE TO
USE THIS PORT
oLLAND- AMERIcAN co. TO
OPERATE STEAMERS FROM
NEW ORLEANS THAT WILL
ALSO COME TO PENSACOLA
AND MOBILE.

The Holland American Steamship
Co. has decided to inaugurate new
line of vessels between Rotterdam and
New Orleans on September l, putting
two large vessels in the trade. little
later the steamers will make regular
calls at Pensacola and Mobile, handling
general cargo. OF the new line the
1imes-Democrat says:
1T was announced yesterday by the
manager of the Texas Transport and
Terminal Company that the Holland
American Line had declared its inten-
ticn of sending ships to New Or
leans. This is the largest Rotterdam
line, and it's entry into the New Or
leans service direct is regarded by
maritime men as an epochal event in
the history of the port. Mr.. Hendren
said the sailings to and from New
Orleans would commence September l.
and that thereafter there would be two
ships a month assigned to the New
Orleans trade.
THE Texas Transport Company's
officers are very proud of having pro-
cured the new line, as this is the first
step of the corporation in it's campaign
for better service for the Gulf ports.
Later. it is said, the service will be
extended to Galveston, Mobile and
Pensacola, and 1t is expected that
thriving trade will be built up. At
present, Mr.. Hendren says the line will
operate from New Orleans direct to
Rotterdam only, with vessels of 5000
tens capacity. dead weight loading
They will be f1rst-class vessels and
will take first-class insurance ratings.
Hitherto the Holland line
has been operated only to Philadelphia,
Boston, Baltimore, Newport News,
Norfolk and Savannah in the Atlantic
coast trade and to Montreal and
Quebec. The company is a very con-
sentative one, and is said to have
Teen celebrating this move for several
years. during which time Manager
Elendren has sent much statistical in
formation about the prospective ton
mage from New Orleans. The Rotter-
dam boats viii carry comparatively
little cotton, being carriers of general
cargo. such as lumber, logs, cotton
seed products, -four. ETC."

The gas was turned low in the con-

But then again, providin' there is the

Colonel Watterson and
Presidential Candidates.

Colonel Watterson appears to have
thrown to the winds his once un-
questioned desire to use his pen for
good and now seems to have been in
oculated with that disease which has
made Theodore Roosevelt the most
talked of man In the world.
The difference between the two is
that Colonel Watterson ought to know
better, and, no matter what Colonel
Roosevelt does, the public somehow
breathes sigh of relief that it was
no worse.
Colonel Watterson's method of at
tracing notoriety of late appears to
be his support and then condemnation
OF presidential candidates for the
Democratic nomination. The conven-
ton is yet several weeks off and the
number of times he will change his
mind before that day is hard to cal
culate. He probably takes the posi-
ton that wise man can change his
mind and wants the public to know
that he possesses a generous overplus
of the stuff that Solomon was noted
for.
Governor Wilson the Kentucky
colonel picked as the quintessence of
political purity and lauded him to the
heavens as the man for the Democrats
to nominate. Our readers know tie
sequel to the first volume-it took a
three weeks trip to Florida to brace
him up after he relieved himself of
the editorial and interviews OF criticism
Of Governor Wilson when the latter
refused to have Ryan finance his cam

Since that time he has supported
Underwood, Harmon, and we .low not
how many more. The latest work
which he thinks he has been inspired
to do is to notify the world that Bryan
will not be a candidate, and to serve
notice that he, Watterson, is going to
grab a seat in the Champ Clark band
wagon as it comes around his way
| next time.

Reactionaries Spend
Money For Delegation.

AS nearly as The Journal can esti-
mate 1t, the manager for the Reaction
aries has spent about 100000 in the
past ten days in Florida in advertising
the Reactionary delegate ticket.
Mr.. Frank Chase has circularized the
state with literature and marked
tickets showing how to vote the I'm
derwood ticket" This circularization
is expensive and must have cost. not
less than 100000. He has also used
an average of so inches OF advertising
in most of the weekly papers. This
cost at least $1,000 for each paper or
a total of 100000.
This makes a. total Of 100000 spent
in advertising alone since the first pri-
mary for the election of what -Four
state at large and four district dele
gates, and one national committeeman.
Why ell this expenditure of money ?
The candidates proudly boast that
THEY are not spending anything.
why then, this expenditure of money
FOR them?
The state is already safe for Mr..
Underwood. The delegation, no mat
ter who Is elected is committed to
him in advance. What then is the
REASON behind this large expendi-
ture Of money to elect DELEGATES
TO the convention
There can be only one reason and
that Is that the men who are running
, for delegates, all being original Har-
mon men, will be expected to go to
Harmon should 1t be found impossible
to nominate Mr.. Underwood.

and not the Reactionaries should be

Marcy B. Darnall, editor OF the Key
West Citizen, was elected to the legis-
lature from Monroe County, leading
the entire legislative ticket. The Jour-
nal congratulates Mr.. Darnall and the
people whom he will represent. He is
able and clean and will make good
legislator. The fact that he formerly
lived In Pensacola, having been an en-
listed man at Fort Barrancas, makes
Pensacola all the more interested in
him. His rise since going to Key
West has been steady and marked, and
The Journal predicts that there are
yet higher things in store for him.

CAL0MEL MUST
HURT YOUR LIVER
Every Time You Take This Powerful
Drug You Are in Danger. Take
Dodson's Liver Tone Instead.

CalC mel is made from mercury, and
while mercury has many uses, it is a
dangerous thing to swallow. II calo-
mel stays in the system very long 1t
salivates. Even when 1t works nat
urally, its after effects are often bad.
D'Alemberte's Pharmacy has a liver
medicine called Dodson's Liver Tone
which is positively guaranteed to take
the place of calomel. It stimulates
the liver just enough to start it work
ing, and does not make you sicker
than ever-as calomel often does. bod
sons Liver Tone won't force You to
stop eating or working after taking it..
It is as beneficial for children as for
adults.

The Real Deceivers
In the Case.

The Jacksonville Times Union, rail-
road owned and corporation bossed,
charges that the advertisements which
The Journal and some other papers
are carrying in the interest Of a Pro-
eressive delegation to the national
convention are an attempt to deceive
the voters Of Florida into voting for
delegates who are not for Mr.. Under
wood.
Here is the advertisement TO which
the Jacksonville paper and some Of its
little imitators object:
All of these Delegates are for
OSCAR UNDERWOOD
For President
Vote for the
PROGRESSIVES
40 follows:
For National Committeeman
Vote for One:
EUGENE S. MATTHEW'S.
For Delegates. State at Large

II there Is any deception about that
advertisement. IT has not yet been
pointed out. The advertisement is not
only literally and absolutely true, but
It is the only delegate advertisement
that does tell ALL Of the truth. Every
- lee L. 49,
to Mr.. Underwood. The FIRST FOUR
are Proaressives. The last four are
Reactionaries.
The advertisement is truthful, plain.
and explicit. No man can be or will
be deceived by it, because it is not
intended for that purpose.
On the other hand, the Jacksonville
Times Union, railroad owned and COR
poration bossed. is advocating what 1t
calls THE Underwood delegates. 1t
names but four--the last four-and 1t
would have the reader believe that
those men are the only ones on the
ballot who will support Mr.. Underwood
II they are elected.
The Times Union, the Tampa Tri-
hume, the Ocala Banner, and all of the
other Rcactionary papers know that
ALL Of these candidates are commit
ted to Mr.. Underwood. When these
papers attempt to deceive their readers
with the statement that only four of
the candidates are for Underwood
they are guilty both of deceit and of
falsehood.
Since the question OF deceit has been
sprung. let the charge be placed where
It properly belongs. 1t cannot be laid
at the door of the Progressives.
