That Tolls Crab

Figures recently printed show that
the coastwise shipping is owned as
follows
By railroads, 61.9 per cent.
By shipping consultations. % per
cent.
BY other lines 81 per Chicago
Tribune.
And this consolidated interest, al
ready legalized monopoly, is roar
ing about the 'patriotc duty of
deadheading its ships through the
Panama canal, at cost to the people
of some $4,000, 600 year in RENTED
tolls. OF course the old anti British
lingo racket is being worked to beat
the band.
The trusts ships are run for profit,
not patriotism or the public health.
1t wants to use the peoples canal"
for nothing. Can the people, or any
of them, use its ships for nothing
Not on your life Would it lower it's
prices to the people if allowed to
swell its profits at the cost of the
public purse +? Not bit of it.
If the American people were pur-
blind enough not to see that this
deadhead proposition is in fact only
that hoary old sinner. ship subsidy,
in new disguise, one would be sorry
for them.
If there is a spark Of patriotic duty
or economic sense in permitting this
interest to blk the national treasury
of its full share of the canal upkeep,
we fail to see it.
And if there is anything patriotic"
in welshing on treaty. we fail to
see that.
Thomas NJ. Kearney of Racine is a
brilliant lawyer, good patriot, and a
fine specimen of the Irish-American.
Let us see how he feels about it:
The presidents position in relation
to the Panama canal is in my judg-
ment the only one our country can
take and maintain its integrity =
We made the agreement and we must
perform it, not only literally but
according TO its spirit, or we must
forfeit the regard in which we are
held by our sister nations. Milwau-
kee Sentinel.
There is some sense in the above
and quite refreshing as compared to
the miserable position taken upon the
toll question by our local daily.

luerta Finally Refuses to Aecede to the Demands Of
This Government and War Vessels Are Now
On Taeir Way to Mexico.

The past week has been an exciting
one in Mexican affairs and it looks
now as if there was no way to avert
war between that country and the
United States. The straw which
broke the back of the presidents pa
thence was the Tampico affair. Tie
incident arose out of the arrest by
Mexican soldiers of the paymaster
and crew of steam launch belonging
TO the Dolphin. The men were url-
armed, else there would have been a
fight. The paymaster and several Of
the men had landed. Two men re-
manned in the boat, which was flying
the American flag at the stern. These
two men were ordered out of the boat
at the point of guns Escorted by the
Mexican soldiers, the officer and his
men were paraded through the streets
of the city, taken across the public
square, and thrown into the Quartet.
Subsequently the officer and men were
released.
Rear Admiral Mayo Immediately
demanded, first, an apology: second,
the punishment of the responsible
Mexican officer, and, third, that the
American flag be hoisred over the
roof of tall building facing the pub
lie square and honored by a salute of
twenty-one guns. The time limit was
O'Clock on Friday evening. April II.
The apology was made but the gen
eral in command refused to fire the
salute. The President directed Charge
O'Shaughnessey at Mexico City that
the demands must be complied with.
Huerta refused, and President Will
son ordered the war vessels to Mexico
to compel the compliance with the
demands of the government. This

character as to entitle him to the priv
ilege for which he asks.
After q careful consideration of all
the facts and circumstances of the case
the court feels amply justified In re-
fusing 10 grant the license. 1t is true
that the house In question is of a
higher class than most of the other
houses on the Five Mile Beach. 1t
cannot, however, be compared to the
first class hotels on the Atlantic City
boardwalk. 1t is not 30 far in q class
by itself as to entitle 1t to greater priv
iIeges than a number of other houses
In the n~eigborhood. Should this Ii
cense be granted because of the quality
of the house merely we think that
other hotels in the vicinity would have
q just cause for coming to this court
and asking for the same privilege.
Hence we said above the present mat
ter involved the question of whether
Wild wood proper should remain dry
as heretofore.
Whether the licensing Of this house
would be a benefit to Wildwood is a
question upon which its best citizens
differ. The fact seems to be, however,
that those favoring the license reside
for the most part outside of Wildwood
proper, while those who reside In the
heretofore restricted zone oppose its
granting. 1t is to be noted that this

The Temperance Forces of The
NCity Meet In Presbyterian
~ Church

The largest attended Temperance
rally in the history of the city was held
in the Holly Beach Presbyterian
church on Wednesday evening under
the auspices of the Frances e. F.
Downing branch of the Five Mile
Beach w. C. T.. u. The chair was oc-
cupied by Mrs. Hallowell, president Of
the Union, seated with her on the pull
pit platform, being the following min
listers: Rev. William Tell Johnston, Of
Bristol, Pa, Rev. w. B. Hill, Rector
of st. Simeon's p. e. church, Wild

Wildwood Baptist church, Rev. DIR.
Edwards, of the Hollywood M. e,
church, Rev. Levanus Myers, of the
Anglesea Baptist church, Rev. DR.,
Laird, of the Presbyterian church.
After an organ voluntary by Miss
Means, the singing of the DoxoIogy by
the congregation and the invocation by
Mr.. Fisher; DR.. Laird in the name Of
his church extended a hearty welcome
to all, concluding by reading the fol
lowing resolutions which were enthusi'
astically adopted by a rising vote:
Resolved that this large representa-
tive gathering, assembled under the
auspices of our local w. G. T. U. hay
ing heard with inexpressible pleasure
of the refusal of Judge H. H. Eldredge,
to grant the new liquor license asked
for in the First ward of our city, desire
here and now to express u high APP
probation of the courage, wisdom and
fairness manifested by Judge Eldredge
in disposing of this attempt on the part
of the liquor interests to make what
has always been consided the Temper
ance zone of island and we hereby
express the present hope that no SINH
lar attempt may ever again be made,
"Be it resolved further, that a copy
of the foregoing be sent to Judge Ed.
redge, and to our city papers for publ.
cation"
The main feature of the evening was
a strong address on the progress of the
Temperance movement. The Boy and
Girls Scouts were present in uniform
and the music which was in charge Of

feeling Is not based upon opposition to
the liquor traffic In general but 3 much
more substantial ground, namely. that
a large amount of property was pur-
chased In this locality with a distinct
understanding that no license would
ever be granted therein. There Is ann
pie evidence to convince the court that
such a general understanding always
existed in Wildwood proper and that
by reason of that fact much property
was sold and thousands of dollars
spent in making improvements there
on. 1t is true that there are no re-
strlctions In the deeds covering this
vicinity but that there has always
been a tacit understanding to that eff
feet, which understanding was, to say
the least, relied upon by numerous
purchasers of property in Wildwood,
we think there can be no doubt. OF
the truth Of this no better proof is
needed than the fact that this is the
first application for a license in this
territory since Wild wood was founded,
excepting the boardwalk license APP
piled for and refused last year.
This court has taken the position on
previous occasions when the question
Of the transfer or renewal of q license
was before it that SO long as the holder
Of the license dealt legally and fairly
he had a right to be protected in his
privilege previously granted even
though his business be obnoxious to
his neighbors. Having taken that
position with respect to licenses al
ready granted the court feels perfectly
justified in taking the further step of
refusing to grant q license in a terri
tory heretofore represented to be dry
when the facts show to its satisfaction
that q large investment has been made
and costly homes built because of that
fact.
The court cannot for an instant ac-
cept the argument of the applicant
that a refusal of this license Is an an
nouncement by it to the world that
Wildwood proper is dry territory.
That is not the question involved.
The question is whether the time has
come for this court to use its power to
override an announcement which in
one form oil another has already been
made. The present circumstances do
not seem to justify such action On the
part of the court.
That the granting of this license is
necessary for the future benefit Of
Wildwood does not seem to be borne
out by the facts. The most beautiful
and most valuable part of Five Mile
Beach is embraced within what we
have termed Wildwood proper. Its
growth has been phenomenal and its
values have kept pace with its growth.
That there is no present necessity
for the granting Of this license is the
opinion or a large per CEN OF Wild
woods citizens and in their view the
court concurs.
The license is therefore refused.
