Fight for Florida
Customs Headquarters.

| The following passage at arms be
| tween the Jacksonville Times I Mon
and the Tampa Tribune indicates
something OF the feeling that exists in
| the customs headquarters fight:
Florida should have four customs
| districts despite the hogs Of Tampa
| Jacksonville Time Union.
For once the disguise has been
thrown off and the real JacksonNi lle
spirit has made itself manifest-and
we know just what Jacksonville thinks
of us.
We are hogs" because we have the
temerity to claim one just recognition
among the many which have already
been "hogged" by Jacksonville. With
to stand upon, Jacksonville gets and
tries TO hold something that it knows
and everybody else knows belongs by
right to Tampa. And then, we of
Tampa are 'nogs" for trying TO OBJ
tain this one little thing.
Jacksonville. through its board of
trade. said it belonged to us ond now
Jacksonville is tying to beat us out
of 1t. In view of the provocation
extended in the Times Union para
graph. we beg to rejoin as follows:
Florida should have four districts or
two districts, but if it can have only
one district, Tampa viii be the head
quarters Of that district despite both
the hogs and the liars of Jacksonville
There should of course be four Gus
toms districts in FIorida-one each
with headquarters at Pensa cola, Jack
sonville, Tampa and Key West, re-
spectively. The order of President
Taft, in abohsning al of the districts
and locating one headquarters for the
state at Jacksonville, was an outrag-
But since the change has been made
no city or section need delude itself
that four districts Will ever he created
And, if four districts cannot be
created, the proposition to have two
districts, with one headquarters at
Jacksonville and another at Tampa,
is practically as outra geous as the
original order. If the state is to be
divided into two districts, Pensacola
should be the headquarters of one and
Tampa of the other Jacksonville
which does infinitely less business
than either, should not be considered
in the case.
The chances are about 100 to l that
congress will not consent to redis-
triCting the state, either into two or
four districts, and there can therefore
be but one headquarters for the state.
That being the case, every rule of
business logic and common justice
should dictate the location OF the
headquarters at Tampa. Jacksonville
has no reasonable claim of any kind
except her characteristic hoG-it- all
spirit, upon this important depart
ment office.

Pensacola Should Destroy
the Rats at Once.

The interview with DR.. Mallory
Kennedy Of the U. s. Public Health
Service published elsewhere in The
Journaa this morning should challenge
the serious attention of every Pensa-
colian.
Bubouio plague exists in New Or
leans. It exists in Cuba. 1t exists in
other places more or less remote.
Eight hours by train would bring 1t
from New Orleans. Six hours by boat
would carry It from Havana to Key
West. Ships entering any of the ports
of Florida may start the plague in any
one Of them. A box car from New
Orleans may carry 1t to any interior
city.
Does all this sink in? Do our peo-
pie realize what II means? Are any of
them doing anything to ward off a
disease that may implant itself In PEN
saoola and in Florida at any time?
In one months time. Pensacola
could be made practically immune
from bubonic plague if EVERYBODY
would just get busy. VIII everybody
do It?
of rats-(D catching and killing
them: CD poisoning them; CD starv-
ing them.
The first two ways are understood
by every small boy and every house
wife in the city. The third way
starving the rat-may not be so we'll
understood.
Every time you set a garbage can
out, without a rat proof cover on it,
you are FEEDING the rats. Every
time you leave a few bread crumbs, a
or any other eatable on the table or
the floor of your dining room, kitch-
ell q" porch over night, you are
FEEDiNG the rats. Stop feeding the
rats and you STARVE them. Keep all
your garbage in rat proof recepticles.
Keep all food in your house where
rats cannot reach it. Keep all grain
and stock food in YOUR stables where
the rats cannot get at it. Do all of
these things and you are helping to
starve the pest out. II there Is a rat
hole about the premises, plug it up.
That will prevent rats on the inside
from getting out, and rats on the out
eide from getting in.
Use all Of these methods-catching,
poisoning, starving-and do it NOW.
Begin today.
If you will do that. Pensacola in a
very few weeks will be practically rat
free.
If you don't dc that, the people of
Pensacola and of Florida will have
only themselves to blame If the worst
happens.

The Coin That
Rings True.

In all the realm Of fancy. in all the
avenues of thought or the field Of ac-
ton, nothing reaches to the heights or
depths that friendship reaches.
1t were vain to imagine anything
finer than friendship. 1t were impos-
sfble to think of anything greater or
to look for anything moro active for
good, in the worlds work.
The man who is q good friend, has
within him the attributes that go to
make great man. For friendship
enthusiastically always-tries mems
souls in a a crucible that burns away
the dross and leaves the pure gold.
No man should give his friendship
lightly, for when it is given It is some
thing that he can never take back
again. For a friendship is a compact
of loyalty, and once given, cannot be
renowned, any more than can a moth
er's love for her child.
There are many counterfeit friend
ships, just as there are counterfeit
coins, but true friendship always rings
true.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1914-07-12

affairs of that municipality. But The
Journal takes a pride in the beauti-
full and progressive city which is the
capital of it's state and we should dis
like very much to see Tallahassee take
any such backward step as is pro-
posed by the True Democrat.
The idea of turning over the wa
ter, gas, and electric plants, already
owned by the city, to a private COR
poration is out of keeping with mod
ern municipal progress. The trend
nowadays where these utilities ar.
owned by private corporations, is to
get them back again into the control
or ownership of the cities.
Pensacola had an experience under
private ownership with her water sup
ply system. Pensacola finally got pos
session of the system herself and it
was the most profitable and satisfac-
tory investment the city ever made.
1t IS only to be regretted that Pensa-
cola does not own her light and power
system as well as her waterworl<s sys-
tenn.
The idea that bond issue for these
public utility improvements will
jeopardze the City's credit has no
basis in business logic. Those utiI-
tiles are revenue producers and the
bonds which they carry can have no
possible effect on the city's credit in
the sale of bonds for its other pro-
posed improvements.
We sincerely trust that the good
people of our CAPITAL city will not be
misled by any such shallow argument
into relinguishing the ownership of
these important and profitable public
service utilities.

Proposed Sale of
Public Utilities.

We frequently hear of cities ac-
curing one or more public service
utilities from private owners. but the
proposition that a city should sell any
Of the public service utilities 1t al
ready owns to private owners is very
unusual indeed. We find, however,
that a sale of this kind is actually be-
ing ADVOCATED in the capital Of Flor
ida, and the Tallahassee True Demo-
crat ofNthat city is one of the advo-
Gates. The True Democrat says:
A corporation owning several utility
plants in neighboring towns has Of
fered the city of Tallahassee $150,000
plants, representing that this is an ex-
ceedingly good price and that it Is
named only on account of the close
proximity Of its other possessions.
After considering the matter very
closely The True Democratic is per-
suaded that 1t would be we'll for the
city to accept the price.
1t is true the plants are in much
better condition now than when pur-
chased in 1908, but the board of man
ayers, having their supervision, find
the expenditure OF a considerable sum
now necessary to meet public demands
and a still larger sum will be neces>
sary before the highest efficiency is at
TENED. These needed sums cannot be
obtained from present patronage and
q continued resort to bonds would be
necessary. These bond issues are a
constant menace to the credit of the
city, and might prevent issues for
street and sewerage improvements
which are far more essential to the
public good.
These plants can be sold and such
ordinances adopted for their regula-
ton, as will prevent increase in rates.
In fact the company proposing the
purchase. offer some immediate reduc-
tons, and the expenditures of a large
sum in Immediate improvements
From every standpoint we think the
sale would be advisable.
This is an amazing proposition in
deed. The Journal does not of course
live In Tallahassee and does not want
to be understood as butting in to the

Blind T!qers in Wet Cities

It IS The rule That there are more
blind tigers in wet territory than
in dry. The Pensa cola newspa pers
frequently give accounts of tigers be-
ing caught in that city. and it must be
conceded by all who have observed the
traffic that there are many times as
many in operation that are never ap-
pretended as are caught in most pla
where they operate. Bay county has
her blind tigers but to license a few
with two eood eyes to search out the

lessen the number Of blind ones.-s't.

Benny Browns Leg Broken During Saturdays Game With East Hamp- ton-Rorough Brevities.

 Umpire, Sherlock; scorer, Mcdonald
 The game was called during the first half of the eighth inning on account of a serious accident to Benny Brown, Colchester's third baseman. Metcaf in sliding to the bag struck Browns leg and broke the bone. The snapping of the bone was plainly heard by those standing near. It put a damper on the playing, as neither team cared to play any longer.
 The score by innings was as fol- lows:
 East Hampton ......1 2 0 0 3 2- s Colchester ...... .... Q 0 3 3 3 0 1-10
 The East Hamptons had made two runs in the eighth, with two men out, when the game was stopped. The
