Pensacola to jacksonville,

We do not know how many auto
mobiles are owned in Florida. What
we do know is that only about ten
per cent of the tax paid by automo-
bile owners goes towards the thing
they want most-good roads. 1t is
useless to argue any further that the
greatest boon to the farmers and
country jewellers OF any locality is a
system of good roads. Here then are
two large and powerful classes Of citi-
Zens with the same object in view,
But when 1T comes to legislating they
show about as much cooperation as
two rival church factions. Every own
er Of an automobile would willingly
pay a good round sum to be devoted
exclusively to the object nearest his
heart-the establishment and main
tenance Of permanent highways. A
vitrif1ed brick road from Pensacola to
Jacksonville could be built in a short
time from such a tax. Why not take
advantage of the obvious situation p

The Difference.

The Differences
Doesn't matter how you feel,
Whether you have troubles real
Or imaginary, you
VIII start in to feelin' blue,
You will surely start to think
That you're wholly on the blink;
You will have ailments galore
Some you never had before;
You will think you're going to die
Surely ere the day goes by
If to you some people say:
Gee you're loolkin' bad today
But you feel At for fight,
Positively well, all right;
Fit to walk a hundred miles
And your face is wreathed in smiles.
You feel ready for the strife,
Better than In all your life,
Strong and able TO go hence,
Full of hope and confidence,
You're as happy as a king,
willing to meet anything
If to you some people say:
Gee, you're looking fine today

ANOTHER LIE NAILED.

The afternoon paper, displaying it's soreness because the Graphic sent out an extra Tuesday afternoon, giving the result of the balloting at Balti- more an hour in advance of it's edi- ton, made the false statement yes terday that the Graphic secured it's information fer its extra from that of fec. They try to let themselves down light with the assertion that it was necessary to get reports from that office before this paper could put an extra on the street for the benefit of the public. If this paper had to wait for news from the Commercial office to get out an edition, there would never be an issue of the Morning Graphic. The Graphic extra contain cd more information than the regular so-called edition of the Commercial

CHARGES FOR LIGHTING SERVICE,

At a recent meeting of the City Council it required the vote of Mayor A. c. Jordan to decide question as to what should be charged consumers for lights and Mayor Jordans vote was cast to sustain the majority re- port of a special committee that was named a few weeks ago to investigate into the charges being made by the Pine Bluff Company for it's lighting service
 There was tie vote, four alder men. Howell, Fox, Wolff and Shep- herd, voting to adopt the majority re- port, and four, Chestnut, Well, Hut and Johnson, voting to adopt an amendment to an amendment offered to Alderman Wells amendment by Alderman Chestnut
 The investigation into the charges being made for it's service by the Pine Bluff Company was made after Alder man Well had made fight against the THJC tudI tItc IluG Diuil AOHtp"hs Aie'N given notice would be inaugurated on September 1. Alderman Veil claimed that the charges for lights were ex- Orbitant.
 When the Council met Monday night two reports were made, one by All dermen Fox and Howell, and the min ority report by Alderman Veil. The majority report of Aldermen Fox and Howell was as follows:
 I've recommend that beginning Au gust the charges for residences shall be as follows: For the first 10 K. w 15 cents per K. w., and for all over 10 K w. and where the consumers i..es as much as 50 K. w., the price to be 10 cents as heretofore. We further recommend the present rate for busi- ness consumers remain unchanged, and the minimum charge remain 75 cents In making the above recom- mendations we wish to say that we have compared our schedule of prices with the following cities: Little Rock, Fort Smith. Texarkana, Hot Springs, Argenta and Helena, and with the above change will compare favorably with Any of them, and in several in staTces our consumers are setting f1ieaper electricity than our neighbor- ing cities"
 In his minority report Alderman Well recommended that the light com pany be compelled to charge only 15

GOVERNOR ISSUES
 TWENTY PARDONS
Three Serving Long Terms For Mur- der Are Freed-Twenty.Nine
 Petitions Refused.

Little Rock. July 3.-Monday was pardon day at the governors office and he pardoned twenty, denied %, and passed four. Among the pardons refused were three long-term men for murder, Berkley Morris, Sevier coun- ty, Is years, from January, 1910; B. B. Richardson, Chicot county, 21 years from 1907; and Bud Reeves, of Woodruff county, 2 years from 1907. He also refused to pardon Frank Kaufman, of Sebastian, convicted last spring of bigamy, and sentenced to three years. The woman whom he married, who was also given three years, was pardoned two months ago. A pardon was also refused to John Buchanan of Garland county, convict ed of bigamy in August, 1910, and sentenced to three years. He has es- capped once
 Upon the recommendation of Super intendent Chappell of the Reform School, pardons were granted to Vir- gil Burrell, Truman shelton, and I4um Denny of Sebastian county. Jesse Gallentine of Johnson county, and Frank and Harry Morris of Sharp COuuiN lucI are 1TOHl 10 to lt years old, and were convicted last winter of grand larceny and sentenced te a year. They have served more than half their time, and have made a good record.
 One of the most remarkable cases in which pardon was granted was that of Eulas Raney, TeXarkana negro, who was convicted in a Jus tiCe court on six charges of stealing articles of clothing from a clothes line He was fined S100 and six months in each case, total of 1865 days. and had served 314 days of the term. The governor denounced this as one of the most outrageous cases of travesty of justice that had come to his knowledge.
 Tn the case of Will Qualls. a Little Rock negro, sentenced for forgery, ihe governor declared upon investiga- ton that he has probahly been punish ed for another'S crime.

cents per Kilowatt for the first five K. w. in residence and ten cents per Kilowatt for each succeeding K. w. For the business district, he fixed a rate of 10 cents for the first 100 K. w. and cents for the next 800 K. w.
 Later while the reports were being considered for vote Alderman Fox moved the adoption of the majority report and Alderman Veil offered an amendment, asking for the adoption of the minority report, but Alderman Chesnutt offered an amendment to the amendment to accept the 15-cent rate for the first five kilowatt and that the business rate remain the same. Alderman Weill accepted the Chesnutt amendment and the vote was called for, resulting in tie vote of four to four. Mayor Jordan voted for the majority report and the only change that resulted in it's adoption was the substitution of ten Kilowatt instead of the twenty, which is now the mini- mum in residences. The rate for the business houses was not changed.
 It was stated by the aldermen favor ing the majority report that they had investigated the earnings of the Pine Bluff Company and had found them to be only reasonable.
 The rate in the majority report was fixed from an average, made from the rates in effect for lights in six cities in this state. 1t was stated that the rate that is being given by the Pine Bluff Company is cheaper if averaged than that given in any other city in this state. This does not include the rate in effect in Argenta, where a municipal plant is in operation.
 Alderman Well, is still insisting that the minimum rate is out of proportion, but Mayor Jordan and the four alder men, who voted against his minority report, cannot see it that way.
 The Pine Bluff Company may or may not be charging too high a rate for its lighting service, but the ser vice is as good as that furnished in any other city in the United States. It's water service and the quality of the water that is being served con- sumers cannot be surpassed anywhere
 
 has spent large sums of money to inn prove it's local service and it is due some consideration in it's efforts to give good service. The new plant of the company is one of the hest ill the country and it is planning to give Pine Bluff street car service second to none in any of the smaller cities of the South
