hours. 1t is just laxative enough, has a
good tonic effect, and taste is pleasant
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
1t is splendid remedy, too, for
whooping cough, Group, hoarseness, asth-

Pinex is the most valuable concentra-

DEATH OF OLD
FLORIDA CITIZEN

Gonzalez, Jan. 13.-Just a tribute of
respect to the memory of Mr.. j. s.
Watson, of Gonzalez, who died after
short but painful illness at Dexland
while working for Mr.. c. A. Dexter,
Thursday, Jan. 2, in the sixty fifth
year of his age.
Mr.. Watson moved from Alabama to
Milton, then to his present home where
he has lived for several years, honored
and respected by all who knew him.
Yes, another hero in real life has
been called to his silent home, a family
made desolate by his loss that to them
can never be replaced; a true husband,
a devoted and loving father, faithful
friend, a good and kind neighbor; no
higher eulogy can be pronounced on
any one.
How his little children will miss his
tender care, older ones his aid and kind
advice. The central sun of their house
hold has set forever.
A member of the Methodist church,
faithful Sunday school attendant, and
really his life was one of true Chris
tianity, charity and love. I know that
no words can express our feelings Of
sympathy for his bereaved family, but
we know in the beautiful land to which
their loved one has gone he is free
from the trouble and pain he endured
here and when gathered at the river is
it not sweet to think that among the
loved and lost he will meet them on
the other shore?
But not for him shall fondest love de-
plore,
Whose patient race of wearing life
has run;
But faith looks upward to a heavenly
shore,
And views his crown of triumph
nobly won.

At an election held in Pensacola,
Fla, Dec 80, bond issue of $4o0, 900
carried for the purpose of construct
ing of municipal docks and belt line
railroad. At the same time the COM
mission plan of government for the
city also passed.
Commenting on the significance of
the first project the Pensacola Journal
says:
We can now invite steamship lines.
both ocean and coastwise, to come
here. We can invite industries to To-
cate here. We can invite capital to
invest here.
And with it all, we can assure the
steamship lines, the industries, the
capital-an of them-that they can
come here on equal terms and with
equal privileges alike.
1t was a good days work and the
Journal congratulates Pensacola on
the outcome.
The Tradesman joins with the Jour-
nal in congratulating the progressive
city. particularly In the early recogni-
ton of what all ports win sooner or
later have to provide for, safeguarding
terminals. It is none too soon for
other South Atlantic and gulf ports

Labor Begins
War on Whiskey.

There is an active movement in the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers
requiring all members of that great
body to be total abstainers from liquor.

great corporations which forbid their
employees to drink, whether On duty or
not.
1t is one point upon which the cor

meet in harmony. to the mutual ad-
vantage.
In the close commercial competition
of today the palm of advantage goes
to the business concerns whose mana
gers and workingmen have the clearest
brains and the steadiest hands.
The great corporations are requiring
that their men be sober, because only
in sobriety lie skill and reliability.
Is It not logical that the working
men. through their organizations,
should do as much for themselves?
It may seem somewhat incongruous
at first sight. yet it is fact, that many
bartenders' locals have bylaws forbid
ding drinking while on duty.
Even to the most ardent defenders
Of drinking there is no fact better
known and more freely acknowledged
than that the most capable and most
reliable bartender is the one who
never drinks behind the bar"

PLEASED THAT
TRUSTEES WILL
SEEK ADVICE
Mr.. Do8soN SAYS HE HOPES
BOARD WILL NOW GO FURTHER
AND APPOINT BOARD OF WIDE
EXPERIENCE.

Editor Pensacola Journal:
/ note from their last letter, that
the board of bond trustees will seek
expert advice in planning for the dock
and belt railway. I hope that they will
go further, and appoint a board of
wide experience and expert technical
knowledge to recommend a compre
hensive terminal plan for the city.
Our idea was not that this board
should superintend the construction
work, but plan wisely and compreien-
sively for the present and future needs
of the city. To secure army engineers
Is an excellent idea, but I think it
might be well to have one civilian.
I don't know where the board got

citation officials are in favor of a day

this work. There is no mention Of any
such thing in our recommendation. If
they are referring to the proposal
made by Mr.. Harp several months
ago, we did not endorse that, nor have
we any interest whatever in getting
any appointment or contract for any
particular individual, directly or indi-
rectly, in connection with this work,
Our original recommendation spe-
officially offered the correspondence re-
lating to this matter to the board of
bond trustees for their information,
and we shall be glad to have them ex-
anime it at any time, and to furnish
them copies of any portion of it they
may desire.

The Senator
From Kentucky.

Kentucky, like the rest of the states
of the union, usually has two United
States senators and always one. Old
Kentucky now has one, the honorable
Mr.. Bradley. There may be. another,
Senator Paynter, and there is sure to
seat, but Just now Mr.. Bradley is in
the lime light.
The senator representing the dark
and bloody ground who is Wen known
to be one OF the most uncompromising
republicans in this nation, is reputed
to have said that Ia conjunction with
Ollie James, he will stand shoulder to
shoulder with President Wilson and
help him to make the new administra-
ton a success. He made some kind
Of reservation. half mental. that on
strict party matters, he would have
to disagree with the next president.
OF course he will and so will all the
rest of the republicans. Yet this
sounds funny coming from Senator
Bradley. 1t is said that in his youth
the senator was a democrat until lured
away by the lust for Office. The story
gees that he once said that If he
thought there was a drop of republican
blood in his veins, he would open an
artery and let it leak out.
However. here is the milk in the CO.
coanut. All the republicans all the
way down to Tray, Blance and Sweet
heart. will stick to the new president
except on strict party lines. The rea-
son is quite obvious. as on all great
questions the republicans and the dem
ocrats are as far from zach other as
the poles There Is 40 common ground
No twilight zone is .aere. The repub-
lican party believes in special privilege
and in the spoilation Of the many for
the benefit of the few, while the dem
ocrats want and will bring and keep
the government closer tc the people.
1t is to be feared the great senator
from Kentucky is getting to be a hu-
morist in his old age.

TUESDAY. JANUARY Il. 1913.
Should Change
Organic Law of State.

States all over the Union are chang
ing their constitutions. New constitu-
lions are the order of the day. This is
a time Of progress and enterprise.
Nowadays when a live progressive
state finds 1t has outgrown the consti-
tuition. new one is manufactured. It
is no longer habit to regard law as
sacred because 1t is old This Is true
OF organic as well as enacted law.
In the vulgar parlance Of the streets.
Florida has a new constitution coming
to her. The present one, nearly 80
years old, was all right, probably, in
its day, but its day has long since
passed.
Florida is taking on new life and ac-
ton as rapidly as any state in the
country. She is coming forth like a
giant and should not be shackled by
an antiquated organic law.
The next legislature should take the
proper steps towards calling conven-
ton and this convention should be
composed of the wisest and most pro-
gressive men in the state and they
should labor slowly. zealously. earnest
~ and steadily until they get docu-
ment suited to the needs of this great
and growing state.
In this constitution the cities should
be given the right of self-government.
All the people should be given that
same right In all the word implies.
The courts should be freed from the
ancient usages of old fogyism that now
handicap their usefulness and the
needs of the schools should be guarded
But al these are separate stories.
Anyway we hope Florida viii soon
have new and broader constitution.
