Getting Started


 Genevieve is always in hurry. The only possible thing that. accord ing to her friends, could prevent her from hurrying would be state of general paralysis.
 One of the contributory causes to her normal state of being in hurry is that she does not make up her mind until the last possible minute. That was why it was not until her husband had pushed back his chair from the breakfast table that she suddenly ex- claimed: "I think we'll go down to Springfield, Ill, to Cousin Nettie's wedding today, after all. The train leaves at II o'clock and we'll get in with plenty of time to rest and dress. for the wedding is not till eight o'clock"
 "All right" said her husband. You'd better drive down in the cleo tric and pick me up at the office. I'll have a boy from the office get the car q the station and take 1t home.
 Genevieve started from the house with plenty of time and with three suit cases blocking up all the interior of the electric that she did not oc- cupy herself To be sure, she had few errands, such as stopping at the milliner's for her latest hat getting a bracelet at the jewellers and picking out some flowers to wear that night. but she knew that she could do these errands in a hurry. When she arrived at her husbands office he was just able to see the tip of her nose above the luggage and the boxes beneath which she was apparently buried.
 Drive onl" he ordered. 'Ill take a street car. Why didn't you bring along a truck to carry all that stuff?"
 Genevieve engineered her car through the perilous way to the rail road station and there waited for her husband As the brs clock pointed to one minute past train time he came rushing up, red and breathless. His street car had been blocked. They had. indeed, missed the train
 It was a sad ride home. Genevieve's husband had to go along to drive the ear, in consequence of Genevieve's be- ing dissolved in tears over the fiasco. Her grief seemed to be equally di- vided between sorrow at missing the wedding and woe over not being able to show of her new evening gown. When she grew tired of telling her husband that it was his fault. he told her that it was hers, until she grew rested and could resume the theme.
 By the time Geneyieve reached home she had revived somewhat Rushing to the telephone. she called up three railroad offices. sent two tele grams and got Springfield on the long distance phone. Then, just as her husband reached his office, she phoned him.
 There's a train on a different road going at 2:30," she informed him. I've phoned fer tickets to be ready and have made all arrangements. All you've got to do is"
 T won'tiH her husband interrupted in the loud determined tone that men use when they are mortally afraid they are going to give in. T wouldn't go through all that agony and fuss again for"
 And I'll meet you right by the big gate" Genevieve ended as calmly as though he had not spoken.
 But" yelled her husband.
 And if we miss the wedding we'll be there in time for the reception" added Geneyieye, sweetly. "Goodby, dear. At 2:15, remember!' "But-" roared her husband as she hung up the receiver.

Genevieye's husband was there on time. and so was Genevieve, with the three suit cases, the hat. the flowers and triumph at really getting off after all. Even her husband melted under her cheerfulness.
 After they had rolled along for an hour he admitted that little rest and change from the office was a good hing and that he really should enjoy he wedding and seeing all the rela- lives. Then Genevieve got out some cards and they played penuchle. Then .hey read a story and had dinner. The train was due at 7:45, Genevieve said Strange to say, it was on time. They rushed out of the car with all their hand luggage and ran for cab.
 We can make the house in ten minutes and get dressed in twenty" Genevieve said. "We-my goodness. Arthur. what's happened to the place? Why-why-"
 She grabbed a passing native. Isn't this Springfeld?" she shrieked-

The above is reproduced in the Char

If Pensacola people could be brought
to realize the truth of the remark of
the Charlotte Observer this city would
profit largely. So thoroughly do our
people recognize the merit of our great
harbor, the climatic perfection we en-
joy, the rich agricultural lands which
produce varied and splendid crops with
mans assistance, that they believe the
world will come to us and beg permits
sion to dwell in the land of plenty.
But it is not SO. Not one city in a
million is the entire result of natural
causes and effects but on the contrary
they are the result OF mans effort.

policies of the people comprising the Third District
and they are equally confident that he will be the
next representative in Congress from this district
The tide of Progressive Democracy which has
been sweeping the country for several years is as
marked in Florida it is everywhere else, and EN-
NETT Wilson is typical example of that sturdy Dem
ocratlc Americansm which is leading the fight in
every section of the United States
He has in this contest made a bold aggressive,
open campaign: He early published declaration of
principles which, so far time would permit he has
openly and eloquently advocated in every section of
the district
The Journal endorses Emmett Wilson because it
believes he is the particular man who can do more
for the people of the Third Congressional District OF
Florida than any other in the race and be-
cause his Progressive and Aggressive policies are the
policies which the people endorse and want.
Let every Democrat who can do so attend the big
Emmett Wilson rally in Pensacola Monday night and
let the friends of Progressive Democracy all over the
district rally to Emmett Wilson's support on Tuesday

Florida, but it will never be one unless
profit as a result of the summer Wis
itors, put their shoulders to the wheel
and take advantage of the things Ma
ture has done for this favored section.
Last year The Journal called atten-
ton to this same subject, but there
to bring about any results. Summer
would not be a dull season in the Deep
Water City where the sea breezes are
always cooling and where the gulf
beach and the bayou at Bayview Park
offer superb places for bathing, free 20
all who desire to take advantage of
them.
During last summer there were sew
eral excursion trains into Pensacola
from Alabama points and the excur
sionists were loud in their praise Of
the Deep Water City and the bay and
gulf and the opportunity here for
spending a pleasant week-but thire
should have been excursions every
week that the Alabamians might
spend the week end in a place where
the breezes are cool and where they
may take their choice between bathing
in the bay, bayous or the majestic gulf
We have the natural advantag es, but
man has not made the effort to bring
the people here in the summer. Re
member, every person who comes here
always leaves several dollars and it is
all new money. There are many things
Pensacola could get if they were gone
after, but they will go elsewhere IN
less the effort is made to get them.

The Articles" Were
Paid Advertisements.

Yesterday The Journal referred to
the anonymous advertisement which
some one in Pensacola placed in the
weekly press Of the Third district. An
attempt was made to have it appear
like news matter and to of course de-
ceive as many people as possible by it
Yesterday the Pensacola News pub
lished it as news matter, adding the
following note to it:
(Note:-Articles along the same lines
were printed by several papers of the
Third district this week.-Editor.)
Had the News desired to be honest
with it's readers It could have ex-
planned that the articles" were paid
advertisements run under the guise of
news matter.
One thing the next legislature should
do is to provide that all political adj
vertisements should be labelled as such
and to provide also that the name of
the person who pays for it should be
published with the advertisement.
This would prevent towards, sneaks
and frauds from hiding behind anony-
nous and deceitful political adver-
Using.

SUNDAY, APRIL %. 1912.
The Tribune
AT Last Flops.

After going this far through the
campaign without having a candidate
for president, that is since Harmon's
has finally come over and is now for
the Harmon substitute. The following
telegram received by The Journal last
night is self explanatory:
Tampa, Fla. April q, 1912.
Editor Journal Pensacola, Fla.
Am informed that you are trying to
make political capital out of an edl-
torial printed in Tribune weeks ago,
when this paper was supporting Har-
mon for presidential nomination and
before he had ceased to be a factor IN
primary in Florida. Position of Tri-
bune was clear then and is clear now
With Harmon eliminated from contest
in Florida, Tribune championed cause
OF Underwood and has been support
ing him unqualihedly and sincerely.
Your effort to make it appear that
Tribune is now opposing Underwood is
manifestly unfair and / request that
you print this statement to correct
erroneous impression your publication
Of editorial has created.
W. F. STOvALL,
Editor Tribune.
We expected the Tribune to come to
II sooner or later, but the above is the
first intimation The Journal has re-
ceived that the Tampa paper was sup
porting the substitute candidate Here
is what the Tribune said of him just
after Senator Bankhead's visit to
Florida:
The Tribune admires Mr.. Underwood
as one of the strongest and best of the
Democrats in congress. He has dem
onstrated remarkable ability as the
leader of the majority in the house of
representatives. There is no question
ing his craftsmanship or his honesty
But as the Tribune views 1t, the Dem
ocratic party would make lamentable
mistake in nominating him for presi-
dent. That he would not carry state
outside of the always Democratic
southern states and that the result Of
the ill-advised selection would be e
landslide for the Republican ticket
there can be no question with any mar
who knows anything at all about ma.
tional politics.
The nomination of Mr.. Underwood
would mean for the Democratic party
q more crushing defeat than 1t ha:
ever received, even under the leader.

She Believed In Love
During Life And In Death.

In Columbia, South Carolina, some
one has suggested and offered to con-
tribute to fund to build some kind
of memorial to the memory of Mrs.
Isador Straus, who refused to leave her
husband and clasped in his arms went
down to death with him in the Inflated
Titanic.
The thought is all right, but no kind
of memorial which human hands can
build will be needed to keep green in
the memory of the American people
the death of the noble woman who
considered not her own life when the
companion with whom she had lived
for years had to be left behind.
None of us will say that Mrs. Straus
did what she should have done. Her
duty was to live, but that divine pas
sion of love is so strong in the hearts
and minds of some persons that life
has little for them, especially in old
age, when their comrade Of years must
| be left behind.
How great the world would be with
more couples like Mr.. and Mrs. Straus
Persons who loved as they loved live
| lives worth living and we are sure that
| they gave up nothing in entering that
great unknown, and in the few trying
minutes when the waters Of the At
| lantic were rolling over them it must
have been comforting to them to know
| that they could enter the other world
| hand in hand as they lived in this
| world.
