PENSACOLA
IMPORT TRADE
GROWING FAST
ALWAYS A LEADER IN EXPORTS
FOR FLORIDA THE DEEP WATER
CITY NOW RANKS SECOND IN
IMPORT VALUES-TAMPA TO-
RAcco TRADE GIVES HER THE
PRESENT LEADERSHIP.

Pensacola has always led the state
in exports, but she is now almost a
leader In imports. For the month Of
September the Deep Water City ranked
second only to Tampa, the great to-
bacco business of that city giving her
the valuation that places her at the
top of the import cities of Florida.
Honduras, Mexico, British West IN
dies, Cuba and Chile furnished over
one million dollars Of the million and
three hundred thousand dollars of i'm
portations into Florida ports during
the month of September, according to
the figures of the collector of customs
for the state of Florida for that month.
The rest of the imports came from
all over the world, from British East
India to Norway.
British vessels brought considerably
more than half this import total, and
American ships handled less than half
a million of the whole amount.
Pensacola looms I'D large as the sec
ond greatest port of entry during the
month, with Tampa still leading, Key
West third, and Jacksonville with less
than one-eighth the Tampa total is
fourth in rank.
Tobacco Largest Import.
Leaf tobacco was the most valuable
importation, amounting to $529,O0e;
nitrate of soda was next with a valua-
ton of $393,0CO, and crude oil followed
third, totaling $114, 500.
Approximately 100000 of the i'm
portations were dutiable imports, and
the free goods amounted to $715,o0o.
The question arising from these fig
ures is, would it not be well to Guilt
vate more closely by means of YES
sells sailing direct from this port, those
countries to the south of Florida,
which last month sent to this state
about ten-thirteenths of all the i'm
portations received in the state2
The following tables show the coun-
try of origin, ports at which entered,
and vessels carrying the Florida Sep

A Strong Box
For All

Our safe deposit vault
is virtually a communi-
ty strong box.
The fact that boxes IN
it are rented by a large
number of different per-
sons makes it possible
for us to have this
stronghold of security.
There are not many
individuals who could
afford to have such an
exclusive vault for their
own exclusive use.
But the cooperation
of a large number of
private box users makes
possible this great vault
which is absolutely fire
proof and burglar proof.
Box rentals range from $500
up, so that it Is possible for you
to protect your valuables per-
Rectly for less than a cent a day.

Col. Chew 1t Winchester.

| Lee Jackson Day was celebrated IN
Winchester on Monday evening of last
week. under the auspices of Turner
Ashby Camp Confederate Veterans ard
the Daughters of the Confederacy. with
big meeting in the Handley Library
auditorium. The orator of the occasion
was Col. r. P. Chew of this place.
For over two hours" says the Star,
Colonel Chew held the close attention
lof brilliant audience. which applauded
his mastery eulogies of both Lee and
Jackson
At the conclusion of Colonel Chew's
address, Mr.. r Gray Williams, on be-
half of the Daughters of the Confederacy
presented him with bouquet of carna-
tions combining the Confederate colors.
Mr.. Williams made an eloquent speech
which was warmly applauded.
The Fort Loudoun Seminary school
of young ladies and the full corps of
cadets of the Shenandoah Valley Acad-
emy were present. besides. of coure, the
Daughters of the Confederacy and
Gen Turner Ashby Camp.
The Star reporter fell into some errors
10 quoting Col Chew's remarks, WHOM
the Colonel corrected subse quently in
the following note to that paper:
Editor The Star-Some)re handed
me your paper on Tuesday, the 2rst, and
l find myself misquoted IN the speech
| made Monday night n two particulars.
One is that described Jackson as per
haps the greatest general of all time
What l said was that his strategy in his
valley campaign was as brilliant as that
employed in any campaign in history,
bnt ! have always regarded Gen. Robert
E. Lee as the greatest of all American
generals. and perhaps the greatest
soldier the world ever produced.
Your paper also quoted me as saying
the Federal soldier was the equal of the
Confederate. man for man. What
said was that the Federal troops, as the
war progressed. fought we'll. were well
Differed. and in the main well led. but
| then proceeded to give many reasons
why the Confederate solder was his
superior, aud was in all respects the
best soldier of all history. If the F, d.
eral soldier had been equal to our men
as they vastly preponderated In number.
they should have defeated us early n the
war, bat | endeavored to show that the
superior courage and intelligence of the
rank aud file of the southern army. di
rected by the brilliant genius of Lee and
Jackson aud other leaders, had enabled
them to overcome greatly superior
numbers.
Very truly yours,
