in the bill.
Pensacola wants appropriation for that portion of
the proposed Inland Waterway between Pensacola and
Mobile included in this BILL The special board of army
engineers has recommended the project and it prop

The Commercial Association at recent meeting
passed resolutions avorng the project but the time has
now come when something than resolutions are
necessary We should have the spot to person

The Journal would suggest therefore that the Com

to the expense account.

Cleveland has a two column article

as well as the death warrant for the

Like some popular tunes which fail

there's an unexplainabie something
about it which makes you read 1t sew

remember 1t word for word. 1t sounds
better every time you repeat 1t.
1t is fine battle song for the Demo-
cratic party, even il some people have
seen fit to make fun Of II.
1t is democratic to the core. Read
it again and be convinced:

many as a thing which has no rights,
1t has them just the same. and occa-

issues the command, You gotta quit

Just so have the people been treated
by those who have controlled the Re-
publican party. They have kicked the
people around during or years and
have persuaded them to vote the RE-
publican ticket during election years.
Now the Democrats have come to the
defense of the people and have told
the Republicans they've got TO quit
kicixin' the people around.
That "houn' dawg tune" is really a
classic. The words. we mean, even IL
the tune won't divide honors with the

What Will
The President Do?

Woman has lost her claim 20 being
the most uncertain creature In the
world. President TAFT must be siven
the distinction.
During the last congress he vetoed
bills which he admitted to him looked
reasonable and right. simply because
his pet tariff board had not reported
on them.
This wonderful board OF his has not
been asked to considss the tan on tn
comes, and should the bill be presented
to him for his signature the question
arises would he sign It or veto 1t mere
ly because It was not recommended by
the tariff board?
