Will the Saloon Men
Never Learn?

some of the saloon men of Pensa-
cola are asking for an extension OF the
closing hour from 10 to IL o'clock at
night
= Originally the bar rooms operated all
night and Sundays in Pensacola II
they wanted to. Several years ago.
Mayor Jones made them close up on
Sundays with the result that many
men got an opportunity to renew ac-
uuaintance with their families.
A few years later D. prohibition cam
paign was started in Escambia county
and the saloon men then agreed, as an
and1csmeut for the voters to vote wet,
TO increase their licenses, do away with
screens, and close their places at
O'Clock at night
The prohibition campaign over and
the danger of annifilation temporarily
eliminated. the liquor dealers asked for
and got an extension OF from nine TO
ten o'clock in which to do business.
Later on, still further challenging
public sentiment, the same liquor in
terests secured an extension of time
from 10 to IL o'clock for Christmas
and Mardi Gras only.
Always inching little. Always
would permit them to go.
Now they come forward and ask an
extension of time from 10 O'Clock to
midnight for every day in the year on
which they are permitted to do bust
ness.
Will the saloon people never learn
anything? VIII they never be able to
let well enough alone? Can't they
read the handwriting on the wal?
Don't they know that the tendency
hacked by an increasing public senti-
ment. is to restrict rather than extend,
the sale of alcoholic nquors7
The last legislature, representing
public feeling on the matter, passed a
liquor regulation law. In some places,
the liquor men are complying with the
law In others they are not. The lat
ter is the case in Tampa and the
Tampa papers and people are out
spoken in their condemnation of the
attitude of the liquor interests in that
city. Indications are that the people
of Tampa are going to require the
liquor men to observe the law or to
quit business altogether.
In Pensacola, the saloons as rule !
observe the state and city laws. But |
this continued attempt to inch a little !
all of the time and get further extern |
sions of the closing hour simply illus |
trates the policy that In most part con- |
trolls the liquor business.
From O'Clock IN the morning until |
10 O'Clock at night is long enough in |
which to get a man drunk. The adj
ditionaa two hours are not necessary. |
The city commissioners will OF course |
not grant the extension of time asked |
for and It would prove sorry day for |
the saloon men IL they did.

Baldwin County Edition.

Sunday, the Pensacola Journal de-
voted two full sections of it's paper to
an exhaustive and replete account of
Baldwin county and it's activities, COW
ering practically every portion of the
county. EditoriaI1y it had the follow
ing to say: Probably more has been
written and said about Baldwin coun-
ty than any other Alabama section and
probably no picture or description of
Baldwin has been very much over
drawn. 1t is one of the most fertile
and productive sections of the gulf
coast and for natural beauty it can
hardly be excelled anywhere. Foley

Be Careful Boys.

1t is said that in Pensacola a new
kind of knock out" connection is be-
ing administered by thugs to parties of
a. bubulous nature in order to put them
to sleep and rob them. If Pensa cola
has any knockout" contraption that
will beat the old familiar sort they
have always had, and with which we
are somewhat familiar, we should like
very much to see what it is like.-De-

do you write this way? Don't you see
that you leave an opening for that al

"plumb-line Port to Panama Leaf

Secretary Smell, OF the Charleston
Chamber OF Commerce is busy these
days pushing Charleston st the
"Plumb-line Port to Panama. Leaf
lets In red and black were sent out
recently containing an ep.tone OF
the wharf Improvements in 1912.
which shows that the city is making
efforts to get the new Panama Canal
trade. Recently another bulletin has
zeen prepared and Ia going to be sent
out. II is map and shows the
greater part OF North America and
the northern half of South America.
The eighteenth parallel Of longitude
is drawn in red through the centre
O. the map, Charleston being located
Oh 1t and shown In large letters. 1t is
shown that this parellel passes thro
Pittsburg. the great coal fields; Mem
phis, Charleston, Panama and Guaya-
quill. tubs giving ground for Charles
tons claim to be the Plum b-line Port
to Panama 1t is the only port SIT
uated on the same parallel with Pan
ANA.
One OF the features OF the map Is
the list OF ports Of the world. indi-
Gated by lines drawn IN the direction
OF theee ports. The distances from
Charleston are: London. 3,781;
Hamburg, 3,945; San Juan. 1880;
Rio Janeiero, Alb; Havana, $50:
Panama, 1907: New Orleans, lilo.
The distance to Panama !s official
and comes from the bureau Of hydro
graphy and justifes Charleston's
claim to being the nearest port to
Panama in the entire United States.
From Panama the distances to
Pacific ports are shown: To San Fran
cisco, 3,277; Honolulu, 4.6S5: Yoko-
hama. $3.50: Hong Kong, s.so2;
Manila. 1o,330: Wellington. 6.58l.
The distance from Charleston to any
OF these places is found by adding
1907 miles to the figure given above.
Thus the water distance from Char
leston to San Francisco when the
canal Is opened will be only 4.S84
miles.
On the map Is portrayed the exact
route that vessels will take from
Charleston to Panama. the course
touching at Jamaica. Here. 1t IS
shown IN what way Charleston will
have great advantage over the Gulf
ports, from which ships will have to
take roundabout course through
the West Indies.
