Not a "Junket" But
a State Reception.

That junket to Pensacola is becom-
ing a regular part of the legislative
program. Unfortunate; it is very de-
sirable to make a good impression
upon the visiting secretary of the
navy.-Tampa Times.
The Times is palpably out of joint.
When the invitation was extended
to the Florida legislature to be the
guests of this city on the occasion of
the visit of Secretary of the Navy Dam
iels they were not invited to ''go on a
junket.''
They were invited to visit one of
the most progressive cities of this
state, and Of the South, to meet and
join him in his observations at the
navy yard, located at the Deep Water
City.
Every Floridian is aware of the fact
that Pensacola takes a pride in her
navy yard, which was closed by q
republican secretary of the navy. for
reasons which have never been ex-
planned. Pensacola will now welcome
within her gatesfthe democratic secre-
tary of the navy, the Florida house of
representatives. the governor of the
state, and other distinguished person
ages. And they will be cordially re-
ceived.
If the editor of the Times has been
inadvertently overlooked by the enter
tainment committee we here and now
assume the responsibility of inviting
him to join the distinguished aggrega-
ton on this "junket" on May 9Th.

men than women in the equal suffrage
states, about 40 per cent of the votes
are cast by women. I was in Denver
during the presidential campaign of
1908, and talked with many women
who had registered with the intention
of voting. They go to the polls as
they go to ladies' aid. missionary, or
social workers meeting-not because
they want to go. but because they con-
slider it a Christian duty to themselves,
their homes and their country.
One sure way of answering the
question as to whether or not equal
suffrage increases corruption in poll
tics, is to inquire who are the oppon-
ents of equal suffrage. Every one who
knows anything at all about national
affairs. knows that every gambler,
every political thug, every dive keeper,
every depraved denizen of the red
light district and all their associates,
every one who is opposed to public
decency, every variety of scoundrel in
the world, is desperately opposed to
the Acknowledgement of women.
Some say that women do not know
enough to vote. Does the superior
wisdom of men cause them to vote as
they do? If so, the country would be
the better for a little ignorance. Colo
do spends more money per capita on
her schools than any other state in the
Union. Every child has a seat in a
school and the law compels the parents
to allow 1t to go to school. In 1912
there were 100000 children on half
time in the schools of New York city,
and $4,000 without seats in school in
Philadelphia, and an equal proportion
in Chicago. Women do not vote in
New York, Pennsylvania or Illinois.
Hundreds of men and women have
asserted in public speeches. or put on
record in magazine articles, that, as a
result of equal suffrage fewer poll
ticians and more good citizens are
elected to office: that women are the
best citizens and cannot be corrupted:
that there is no bribery and no cor
ruption of women's votes at any cleo
ton: that no campaign orator, in a
stump speech, ever dares to tell a story
that is not clean: that no candidate
dareS cater to the immoral woman
vote: that no party dares nominate a
candidate of known bad morals, and
that every party in choosing its can
didates is compelled 70 select men
against whose moral character the
women can say nothing.
IF we want good laws. We must have
good men TO make them. II we want
good law makers, we must have good
citizens to vote for them If we want
good citizens TO vote. we must enfran-

The Vice Presidents
Rules for Lawyers.

Besides being an able, interesting,
and picturesque vice-president of the
United States, Mr. Marshal. of In
tude. Not only has he great skill and
ability in all the intricate ways of his
profession, but he is learned on the
ethics of the trade in the highest and
best sense of that term.
The vice president made a speech
recently at a dinner given by the
George Washington University law
school and during that discourse laid
down ten rules for the guidance of
young lawyers, which when epitomized
are as follows:
Don't put fee before a just cause.
Don't worship money to the extent
or being willing to write a dishonest
contract in order to get large fee.
Be a peacenlalxer; that is the law
yer's business.
Don't chase ambu.ances.
Honor your profession as your own
sacred honor: therefore do not seek or
confound litigation.
Don't accept contingent fees.
Use your influence against the sys,
vance in divorce cases; therein lies
the evil of the divorce laws; when that
has been abolished half the divorce
cases will be stopped.
Use your influence to compel a per-
son charged with crime to testify in
the cause: the innocent man cannot be
harmed thereby.
Take the part OF the known Grim
inal. but only to see that justice is
tempered with mercy.
Don't inquire as to your clients
pocketbook before fixing your fee.
1t may be suggested that these rules
are not original, hut it certainly puts
in compact form the ethics of the
practice Of law. 1t may also be said
that cd lawyers as well as young ones
might profit by these commandments.
Cftentimes young lawyer starts out
with high ideals while he sees on every
hand older and more wicked men
bringing the ethics of the law into
contempt Anyway, the rules are all
right

PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE
BEEN GIVEN WARNING

Editor Pensacola Journal.
The glazing headlines of recent is
sues Of your paper announcing the
disappearance of a certain fortune
teller who has been very active in tell
ing people about hidden treasures, lost
wives, future marriages, etc, has i'm
pressed me with considerable force,
and once more l beg space of you to
mention few facts. Let me say that
I am not writing this to start another
controversy.
During all the time this woman has
been so widely advertising her ability
as a reader of the future l feel sure
that l would be safe in saying that
but few of the Christian people of this
place had been warned by their pastors
and leaders that her art was not of
God. In fact, the very foundation of
her success is laid in the minds of
people who are taught that Platonic
philosophy is true and told that the
Bible statement that 1.-The dead know
not anything is false.
Does the Bible say anything about
such people as this? Most assuredly
it does and in every instance it warns
people against them. The Bible does
not deny that there are spirits who
have power to do many things, and
Paul in 2 Thess. 2:9 speaks of Christs
coming after the working of Satan
with signs and living wonders, show
ing that the permission of more of
this evil in these days is going to eff
feet those who have not received the
truth in the love.of it. +
Peter tells US that these spirits are
not the loved ones who have died, but
the angels which We're disobedient in
the times of Noah Il Pet. 3:19-20).
Space forbids my going into the mat
ter in detail, hence I will not do so.
The question presents itself to some:
What has this got to do with this
mind reader or fortune teller? Sim
ply this, that God is not working in
this way among men, and the Bible
says they are not of God who work
thus. It will not be hard for some of
these people who have paid out their
hard earned dollars to be persuaded
that this woman's power was not of
God, for God would not give such
power to one who would use it to rob
those who trusted in her. Then her
power (for from all reports Of respon-
sible people she had power to tell their
past history was not of God, and the
other force at work among men to-
day is the devil
Just a word in conclusion. I have
no complaint to make against
preacher who is preaching the Bible.
but the preacher who permits his flock
to be led astray by receptions like this,
when they are paying him a salary to
protect them to the best of their ability
against the adversary and his deeep-
tons, should be asked his reasons for
falling to do his duty by his people.

Mary,s Birthday.

LONDON, April 25.-Flags are fly
ing on all government buildings to-
day in honor Of the sixteenth birthday
Of Princess Mary, only daughter and
third child of King George and Queen
Mary. Artillery salutes were fred in
st. James park and at Windsor castle.
The young princess, who was born
at the palace in 1897, received CON
gratulations from royalty throughout
Europe, but otherwise the celebration
was Of the quietest and most personal
character. The princess received
handsome but useful gifts from the
king and queen and her brothers, the
younger princes making the greatest
secrecy over their offerings which
were bought out of their own very
modest allowances of pocket money.
Intimate friends of the queen say that
young Mary, who has been very strict
ly brought up and inherits much of
her mothers sound common sense
and domestic simplicity, has already
proved herself "the man of the fam
lily" completely outshining her more
reserved and elder brothers, the
Prince Of Wales and Prince Albert.
