TRIBUNE OBJECTS TO
THE COMPARISON
Tampa Tribune.

Tampa Tribune

Editor Frank Mayes Of the Pensa-
cola Journal, has grown tired of peo-
pie asking him the real difference be-
tween a progressive and a "reac-
tionary'-so he writes a two column
editorial answering the question, once
and for all.
Editor Mayes begins with Moses
and thunders down the corridors OF
time" citing progressive" leaders
and the vile and vicious reaction
aries" who opposed them. Omitting
Colonel Mayes' superb rhetoric, we
find his comparative list about as fol-
lows:
Moses VS.. Pharaoh.
Caleb and Joshua VS., the ten OPP
posing princes.
Cyrus the great VS.. Astyages.
Julius Caesar VS., Pompey and Nero
Paul VS.. Saul of Tarsus.
The English BaronS VS.. King John
Cromwell VS.. King Charles.
Napoleon VS.. Talleyrand and Pitt.
Patrick Henry VS.. the Tory MEM
bers.
George Washington VS.. George III.

The Rarest Virtue in
All the World.

OF all virtues, there is none so rare
as justice. Most men are merciful,
many men are kind, but how few are
just. 1t is far easier to be gentle than
to be just. For gentleness is a quality
of the heart, justice is a trait Of char
acter.
Most of US can find it in the heart
to sorrow over the misfortune even of
an enemy. How few of us can do the
closest friends the fairness to be to
him truly just
If he fail, we pity him. But do we
measure his failure justly? May it
not be, that that very failure might
have been averted if he had been given
a square deal, by the very ones who
now offer him mercy?
Deep down in the human heart there
lies the strong, insistent demand for
justice-justice to self. But, strange
anomaly, how seldom are we just to
any other soul.
We make demands that cannot be
met-we insist on bricks without straw,
and then at last when the weary soul
sickens Of it's futile task, we bend in
commisseration over the spent form,
and wipe away the beads of anguish
in PHYS name.
How much nobler and wiser to have
given the soul it's right, while the day
was yet young, instead of waiting till
in the late evening, it has fallen sick
and worn, by the wayside.
1t is easy to be magnanimous. How
difficult it is to be fairminded.
Shakespeare says:
'The quality of mercy is not strain
1t droppeth. as the gentle rain from
Upon the place beneath; it is twice
blessed;
It blesseth him that gives and him
that takes;
It's mightiest in the mightiest; ii
The throned monarch better than his
crown;
His sceptre shows the force Of tenn
poral power,
The attribute to awe and majesty,
Wherein doth sit the dread and fear
of kings;
But mercy is above this sceptered
sway,
It is enthroned In the heart of kings
1t is an attribute to God himself;
An earthly power doth then show
likest Gods,
When mercy seasons Justice"
But Christ in His Sermon on the
Mount, says: Do unto others as you
would have them do unto you.

Blue Jackets Are
Fine Lot of Fellows.

Since the beginning, almost, Of the
government, Pensacola has been from
time to time the rendezvous for large
numbers OF Uncle Sans young Blue
Jackets and shore liberty parties have
formed a unique part of the city life
and sights.
Many thousands of these fine young
fellows have visited Pensacola during
1.-THE past fifty years and these former
eguests OF the city are today scattered
Nall over the civilized world.
Recently an unusually large num-
kber have been in the city, as many as
500 or 1000 men being ashore at one
time, and their presence here has been
characterized by the most complete
good order and by perfect behavior.
After life aboard a ship for weeks
and frequently months without shore
leave, 1T would not be strange if the
men exhibited more or less exuberance
OF spirit which would take the form
of unconventional conduct when they
got ashore. In the case of there Blue
Jackets, however, they have exhibited
the best behavior at all times and
drunkenness and disorder have been
almost totally absent.
The boys with the ships now in
Pensacola harbor are fine specimens
OF young American manhood and a
credit to the navy and to their coun-
try.

Birds of a feather flock together and
Mr.. Fletcher was found nesting with

But inside the building, men versed in

II is possibly well that the high

people that it was Gods day-a day
of worship. There was music IN the
old church bell-music that was an
inspiration. and that brought thoughts
of nobler and better things just as
did the sermon that was preached
within the walls of the church.
In some places there are still
church bells; they still ring out their
sweet melody on Sunday morning;
they still tell of God and call people
to worship; tell them to put aside all
cares and all unrighteous thoughts
and come to the house that was build
ed to the honor Of Him whom the
bells call the people TO worship: to
utter prayers that might make them
better men and woman, and put their
minds on sacred things.
The high steeple and the bells have
gone, and in their place there IS simply
the standing call, the regular notice
Of worship. This, however, should be
sufficient. The sound of the bell
should not be needed to cali people
to church, though It is pleasant re-
minder.

Special Privilege and
the Canal Tolls.
"A Philadelnhla man

A Philadelphia man writes Golfers
Weekly the following epistle:
IS Why don't you stand on the side OF
the nation and call the states to arms
Ito defeat the unworthy surrender of
the Panama Canal notwithstanding
a few weeks ago? Or shall it be said
that Golfers, too, is for special priv
ilege?
To which rather pointed epistle our
esteemed magazine contemporary
makes even more pointed reply as fol-
lows:
Your letter is an admirable speci-
men of the loose thinking and loose
writing that people use who read dis
honestly edited newspapers.
Just where did you get your idea
that anybody in this country plans to
Surrender the Panama canaf, or for
that matter the Gowanus canal, to any
foreign nation?
The proposition. as Golfers under
stands It, is; Shall the shipping trust
PAY for the privilege of using the
Panama canal-~hich has cost the
United States a good many million dol
Iars-or shall the PEOPLE pay one
more tax to special privilege by
"surrenderinc" the canal to combine
owned shipping? Giving something for
nothing is generally bad policy for any
individual of any nation. That is the
Wilson idea of this matter, and the
Goethals idea, and the idea of Rear
Admiral Stockton, and Golfers idea
Confessedly, the canals service is a
great one. If you know OF any reason
why you and the editor of Golfers
should pay no fare on street cars be-
cause we happen to be American citi-
zens, you will also be able to explain
why American shipping shouldn't pay
its fare through the Panama Canal.
