BAYv|EW PARK
BATHERS WILL
BE MANY TODAY
ENLARGEMENT OF PAVILION
WILL AFFORD HUNDREDS AN
OPPORTUNITY TO ENJOY FAcI-

PensacoIa's unexcelled recreation
park at Bayview will be the scene of
much pleasure and merriment this af-
ternoon when the usual Friday crowds
gather there to get relief from the
heat of the city and to forget the
worries and cares of business life.
There is nothing like a cool swim in
the open air to drive away the blues
and put life and energy into the tired
body. Last year the management at
Bayview Park had to turn away large
crowds because of it's inability to &C
commodate them. Nothing Of that
sort will happen this year, however,
because the pavilion has been increas
ed to twice its original capacity and
other preparations made for the ac-
commodation of larger crowds than
ever before.

Old Sol has been making it so warm
for the people of Pensacola recently
that everybody is in search of a cool

matter how hot it gets in the city there

because of this fact large numbers of
people gather there daily.
A great many who visit the park,
however, do not know that the regular

FIRST NATcHEz BANK.

The Natchez Democrat of Thurs
day brings the unwelcome news O
the failure of the First Natchez Banl
of that city which has gone into The

its affairs.
The Directors of the bank, in a
notice posted on Its doors, state that
on account of delays and losses in
marketing crops and the consequent
inability of the Bank to realize
promptly on its assets and meet its
obligations they have deemed it is
best for the protection of depOsitors
to place the affairs of the Bank into
the hands of Receivers.
No statement of the affairs of the
Bank is officially made at this time
but it is reported that the depositors
will be paid in full and the loss will
fall on stockholders.
The Gazette regrets extremely this
disaster to the First Natchez Bank
and to the City of Natchez, for the
failure of the second largest bank
in that city must necessarily be felt

THE FUTURE.

The people of this section are now
undoubtedly going through the most
trying experience, financially, OF
which we have any knowledge.
The great invasion of boil weevils
and the untOward weather condi-
tons which have characterized this
year have caused condition which
calls for the employment of all the
courage and fortitude which we can
summon up. But it is no time
20 give up or to knock. " We have
had the bot end of the poker
this year, but good crops have
been made in territory Immediately
adjoining ours this season, owing
to better weather conditions, and
all we can do is to keep a stiff
upper lip" and work for better
things in the coming year.
As we have pointed out time and
again in these columns, the pros
pect for cotton crop, next year,
so far as that crop is affected by the
weevil, is good or even bright, be-
cause there can be no doubt that
the defoliation of the plant by the
worms and the killing frosts of this
week will have a marked effect in
destroying the weevil. Indeed, there
is reason to hope and believe that
the infestation of next year will be
the least which has visited us since
the first year the pest appeared.
So let no man despair and above
all let us discourage the knocker"
who sees nothing but trouble ahead.
On the contrary, let us encourage
those among us who are discouraged,
meet the situation bravely, intelli-
gently and hopefully and all shall
be well in the end.

CLEVELAND, 4 GREAT PRESIDENT.

On Wednesday last a new build.
ing, with a lofty tower was dedicat.
ed at Princeton University, New
Jersey, to the memory of Grover
Cleveland, who became a professor
in that institution after he had re.
tired from his two terms as presi-
dent of the United States.
Ex-President Taft, who is now a
Professor in Yale University, was
the special orator for the dedication
ceremonies, and he delivered an adj
dress in which he declared that
Cleveland was not a great orator,
nor great economist, but be was a
great president. The New York
World, remarking on Judge Taft IS
speech, said.
why was Mr.. Cleveland a great
president? He was a great president
because he was lawyer enough, econ
omist enough and orator enough to
adhere to his plighted faith with the
people, and do exactly as he had
agreed to do and to resist to the
point of personal and political ex-
tinction the threats and blandish-
ments of public enemies.
Viewed in the light of recent
events, Grover Cleveland was a great
lawyer, great economist and great
orator, as well as great president.
He never signed bill that he had
promised to veto. He never vetoed
bill that he had promised to sign. -
And when the honor of the nation
and the inviolability Of its Monroe
Doctrine were about to be infringed
in the Venezuela case by Great Brit
ain he stood as firm as rock and
showedthatsuch infringement would
not be permitted under any circum-
stances, and he made the position
of the United States so Enthusiastically
plain that the attempted movement
was at once abandoned.
President Cleveland was a great
lawyer because he knew the law and
and maintained it; he was
a great president because he was a
grand patriot and was devoted to
his country and strove to advance
its honor and the welfare and pros I
perity of its people to the utmost. |
Like Washington, he was severe |
ly criticized and found fault with !
during his lifetime, but after his
death his real greatness was recog-
nized and will be increasingly hon.
bred to the end.-New Orleans Pic

TIMELY ACTION.

From the New Orleans papers Of
the Both inst. we learn that the Di-
rectors of the New Orleans Board OF
Trade, at meeting on Wednesday
last, Endorsed the Ransdell- Hum
phreys bill, now pending in Con-
gress, and the President of the
Board was directed to call meet
ing of the full membership of the
Board and arrange for a great con-
vention of commercial bodies of
Louisiana in New Orleans the last
OF November to take action on the
measure.
As we have had occasion to say
heretofore in these columns, the
Ransdell-H Humphreys bill appropri-
ates sixty million dollars to com
plete the Mississippi river levee sys-
tenn and is to be distinguished from,
the Newlands bill, which appropri-
ates half a million dollars for levees,
irrigation and conservation projects.
There can be no doubt which of
these bills should receive the sup
port OF Louisiana people. What we
want is speedy action looking tow
ard the immediate completion of the
levee system and it is clearly not to
our interest to tie ourselves up with
a scheme like that contemplated in
the Newlands bill, which, while it
may be meritorious measure, calls
for such an enormous expenditure
of money-five hundred millions
that it is not reasonable to suppose
that Congress can be induced to
sanction this vast expense at its next
session, or indeed for some time to
come.
So we welcome the action of the
New Orleans Board of Trade in TAX
ing steps for convention at an ear
" state to urge the passage of the
Ransdell-Humphreys bill at the reg
ular session of Congress in Decem-
Der.

casional good seasons, with enough dry
weather in the early part of the growing
season to hold the weevils in check, even
in districts where no precautions have
been taken. Fortunately, or perhaps un-
fortunately, seasons of this kind have
already occurred since the weevils reached
Louisiana, and some of the planters have
been encouraged to believe that they
could go ahead with cotton raising on
the same basis as before weevils arrived.
Thus, from the standpoint of permanent
improvement of the industry, favorable
seasons may be more dangerous than
those that show the advantage of adopt
ing improved methods.

idea that the weevil will pass of in a few
