DOES PROHIBITION PROHIBIT?

THAT there is less liquor drank in
prohibition states than in those where
the sale is permitted is established by
the figures of the Year Book of the
United States Brewers Association
which states that the average guam
tity consumed per capita in license
states is 1888 gallons and in prohibi'
tion states, 1875 gallons. 1t would ap-
pear from the very figures furnished
by it's opponents that prohibition
comes very near prohibiting after
all. Tampa Daily Times, August,
1913.
This official statement coming from
their official headquarters explains
why the liquor dealers so persistently
fight prohibition and proves that pro-
hibition does prohibit about 95 per
cent. of the drinking. The recently
enacted laws protecting the dry terri
tory from liquor shipments will make
prohibition even more effective. Those
who have studied the question do not
believe that our laws prohibit 95 per
cent. of the murders, yet no one calls
the law failure on that account.-ad

MEETING OF PABLO PIER AND
HOTEL COMPANY

In our issue of Tuesday we first
published an account of the magnifi
cent reinforced concrete ocean pier
hotel, ETC., to be built by the above
named company, of which Mr.. Rich.
ard S. Hall of this city is president.
Yesterdays Times-Union contains a
lengthy account of the meeting of the
officers and those interested in this
company. 1t says in part as follows:
In the absence of President r. S.
Hall, the well known lumberman of
Ocala, Vice President Frank Richard
son, presided at the meeting, and Sec
retary w. H. Lowry was present in
his official capacity, as was also
Treasurer D. H. Herrin. When ad-
journment was finally taken, it was
to meet again within the next day or
two, a telegram from President Hall
stating that he would be present.
While a few days ago it was an
nounced that this concern would be-
gin the construction of the new pier
within sixty days, later developments
have been such as to warrant the
starting of the work in a much short
er time, and it was for the considera-
tion of some changes in the details
of the plans submitted that yester-
days meeting was held.
The changes necessitated in the
original plans which occasioned the
meeting yesterday were due to the
fact that number of applications
have been received for space on the
big pier that required some altera-
tions in the details. However, these
will require but little time in the
preparation of the necessary working
drawings and as soon as these are
completed the actual work of con-
struction will be started.
Announcement was made at yes
terday's meeting that at the recent
meeting of the passenger officials of
the Southeastern Passenger Associa-
tion, held in Chicago, it was announc-
ed that during the coming summer of
1914 railroads in the southeast would
establish special tourist and weekend
rates to Jacksonville's two great sea-
port resorts, Pablo and Atlantic
Beach.
AS was stated, when the announce
ment of the pier was made those in
terested in this proposition have been
quietly but effectively at work on the
pier for two or three months. AS a
result, applications for space from the
best and largest amusement concerns
have already been received that have
placed the pier in new light from an
investment as well as an amusement
standpoint.

MAJOR SLATTERY EXPECTS FA-
voRA1LE REUORT

Major j. r. Slattery, engineer in
charge of river and harbor work in
the Florida district, is of the opinion
that the board of engineers for rivers
and harbors, sitting at Washington,
will make a favorable report on the
project for giving the Oklawaha river
depth of six feet from the mouth of
the stream to Leesburg, and that the
rivers and harbors committee will re-
port the project favorably to the next
congress, convening in December.
1t is estimated that the project,
which has been approved by Major
Slattery, would cost the government
about s616,000, but it is generally be-
lieved that the appropriation will be
readily forthcoming, as beginning OF
work on this project would be the
first step taken toward realizing the
dream of trans-Florida canal, for
which transportation interests have
been clamoring for number of years.

MARION COUNTY GOOD ROADS
INSPIRES PUTNAM

Farmers, citrus fruit growers and
business and professional men of the
Orange Springs district, in Marion
county, tiring of an impossible road
to the Oklawaha river a greater por-
ton of the year, had a new roadway
surveyed on section lines, then,
through the Orange Springs Co-opera-
tive Association, live wire organiZa-
ton of settlers, called for volunteers
to blaze the way for the new highway.
The response was most liberal, and
when the day came it required but
eight hours work to complete the
task, distance of one and three-quar-
ter miles from the springs to the riv-
er. The association then appealed to
the commissioners of Marion county
and the latter Immediately set num-
ber of men to work to surface the new
highway.
Many settlers have taken up land
at the springs within the past two
years, and as they are now busy plant
ing beans, peppers, eggplants, etc.,
they were anxious to have the road to
the river built to facilitate transpor-
tation. Many of them have realized
that shipment by water from and to
that section is saving of about one
third the freight cost
Mr.. George A. Mawman suggests a
proposition similar to the foregoing
for Putnam county, and thinks that
sufficient interest and enthusiasm
could be awakened by proper agita-
tion to have the piece of road be-
tween Palatka and the Clay county
line placed in good shape.
He wants everybody to shut up shop
on October 1st, and armed with SHOW
ell, rake and hoe, supplemented by
teams of all kinds, hike to the section
of unbuilt road and proceed to put it
in apple pie order.-Palatka Cor. to

G. T. BRADLEY

ed by the sudden and unexpected
death OF one of her oldest and best
citizens. Mr. T. G. Bradley, who pass
ed away at the home of his brother
in-law, Mr.. F. B. Hester, on Septem-
Der 3rd.
MIR. Bradley was a carpenter and
was engaged at work on a cottage for
o. ID Huff. mile north of Evinston,
on August 18th, when he fell from the
roof and sustained serious injuries,
having several ribs broken besides in
ternal injuries that caused his death.
The past several days he seemed to
be getting on we'll, and even last
night had planned with his family
that they might move him to his home
today. Early this morning he awoke
and with the aid of Mr.. Hester, who
was attending him, sat up on the side
OF his bed and tried to cough, and
passed away in few minutes.
Had Mr.. Bradley lived one week
longer he would have been sixty-ive
years old, having been born in
Charleston, S. c., Sept. 10th, 1S4S.
The greater part of his life was spent
al Covington and Calhoun, Ga, NOV
ing 10 Evinston in January, 1909. He
numbered his friends by his acquaint-
ances. His was a sunny and jovial
disposition and he had an abiding
faith in Gods goodness and love, and
was an earnest worker in his cause.
He had been a member of the Meth
odlst church almost all his life and
delighted in its faith and doctrine. He
was also an enthusiastic and faithful
member of the Masonic fraterniay.
He leaves a grief-stricken wife and
two sons.
His body, accompanied by the wild
ow, his son, j. H. Bradley, and wife,
and F. B. Hester, was taken to Gov
ington, Ca, where it was inferred in
