MRS. WELLES HOSTESS
AT LIBRARY TEA,

Lovely in it's adornment of flowers
and greenery. the hospitable home OF
Mrs. L. E. Welles presented a scene
typical of the springtide when, or
Thursday afternoon, she entertained al
tea, FOR the Pensacola Library, a
few friends having been invited fol-
Five Hundred.
Upon stepping into the reception hall
one found oneself at once in a sylvan
scene, for everywhere the lovely white
blossoms of the dogwood nodded a
friendly greeting. The stairway, the
parlor and the ballroom upstairs, were
ALL too. in this lovely springtime ap-
parel, and the beautiful blooms, with
their pure faces. suggested all that was
loveliest of the season.
Mrs. Welles, in her charming gown
OF soft white crepe, and her guest,
Mrs. Smith. in a toilette Of white lace,
fitted beautifully into the picture, aad
the guests in their varying Afternoon
costumes afforded a pretty note of
contrast of color.
There were six tables at play and
the afteI --oon proved most delightful,
partalxing rather OF the nature of
private party. as Tndeed these tets for
the Pensacola Library have realIycome
to be. Dainty refreshments OF draw
berries and whipped cream, tea, cakes,
and sailed almonds were serves after
the play.

THE SOUTH AND SUFFRAGE


As a southern woman. would like
to put myself on record as being
strongly in favor OF an amendment to
the National Constitution enfranchis-
ing women throughout the United
States. / am completely out OF har-
mony with the persistent plea for
state rights. 1t is unnecessary. and
is distinctly reactionary.
At the conference of Southern wo-
man Suffragists. which met in New
Orleans last November, a determined
effort was made to have the repre-
sentatives present endorse the state
rights idea; but it failed. In the dis
cussion or the subject, surprising
number Of women lined up in opposi-
ton, the lady from North Carolina
declaring that the term state rights
was "a war-cry." A committee OF
three was appointed to select a name
for the conference, and to construct
an outline for its guidance. Although
two of the three titles suggested en-
bodied the words state rights" the
conference decided by an emphatic
vote that the Objectionable term
should be left out, and a name was
adopted which did not contain 1t.
Men OF the South realize as thor
oughly as men do everywhere else in
this nation that woman suffrage Is at
hand. 1t is utterly useless to attempt
to cajo1e the democrats by making an
effort to revivify an old issue and to
clothe a dead term with flames OF liv-
ing FIRE.
Not long ago a magnificent hearing
was given by the legislature OF Mis-
sissippi to the woman suffrage cause.

RUSH OF WORK
YESTERDAY IN
PENSACOLABAY
MORE THAN A DOZEN GANGS OF
MEN WERE SENT TO THE SEW
ERAL STEAMSHIPS WHICH ARE
NOW TAKING CARGO HERE.

Yesterday was a fine day for load
gangs Of seventeen men each, were
sent out to the several steamships
now at anchor In the stream, taking
timber and lumber cargoes. It is fig
ured that each gang costs just 800
per day. so It can be seen that the
promised spell OF good times in tim
Der and lumber work was realized for
day at least. More men would have
been worked yesterday had they have
been available but where complete
crews were obtainable, all were taken
to the different ships, and last eve
ming, old baymen, who, however, are
in different lines now, stated that it
had been several years since such a
spell of activity had been witnessed.
all in the same line OF work.
Timber was worked on the steam
ships Lord Dufferin, Norwegian, kim
wood and Brantford. and lumber was
worked on the same vessels. together
with the steamships Giovanrosa and
Farmsum, while a number of sailing
vessels were also loading, so that, for
a day or two at least all the able
bodied men available were put to
work yesterday.
Two of the steamers have cleared
and are expected to go to sea today.
Two other steamers are due during
the early part OF next week, so the
present activity will last for a while
longer. Thousands of sticks of tim
Der are here waiting for slowing on
ships either at anchor already or due
soon.

THE DEAD FORERUNNER.

Do you hear the women marching, lit
tie mother,
Where you slumber in your narrow
bed apart,
With your little hands locked fast,
Icy, motionless. at last,
Above the ashen crater Of your heart
You, the passionate forerunner of the
morrow,
You, who died before the breaking of
the light,
F'rail, Promethean foe of hoary wrong
and sorrow,
Can you hear the women marching
through the night?
Not so piteous the lot Of those who
perished
Long years before the breaking of the
day
Who took into their graves the vision
cherished,
With fruition still miIlenniunns away!
But the army you awaited, Banner
Bearer,
Was just around the corner of the
years!
o little dauntless ghost,
Was 1t you who led the host,
men watched II uaSnlnS past me,
through my tears?
Can you hear the women marching,
little mother,
In the narrow little bed wherein you
sleep?
All the crowding, hurrying feet,
Marching with victorious beat
Above the graves Of sowers-these who
reap?
Oh, / think my heart could bear it's
memories better,
Recall without so passionate a tear
Your souls unconquered wearing of
the fetter,
If only you could know the day is
here!
They. are coming, they are coming,
little mother,
Some with fierce fanatic sword and
foolish spear,
But the many girt with love of son
and brother,
Mother tolerance, and sturdy mother
cheer.
But I wish that you could see them
thronging, singing,
Up the lonely path the lantern bearers
trod.
On the. journey Of the soul
Toward the ever-luring goal
OF man, the tireless traveller to God.
-Scribner's.

The great hall Of representatives Of
the superb new capitol was packed
from floor to galleries, not only with
members OF the legislature, but with
hundreds Of persons from the outside
scores Of whom were compelled to
stand. Miss Kate Gordon and five
Mississippi women made addresses in
advocacy OF the resolution, which had
previously been introduced in both
houses, calling for the submission of
an amendment to the constitution en-
franchising the women OF this state.
The opposition defeated the motion to
have the subject voted upon at the
close of the hearing. The next day it
was brought up in the house. The ex-
element in the legislature was in
tense. Through all the heated debate.
not one word was said relative to the
negro question, which has been the
ll-conquering argument used by poll
ticians in the South who opposed wo-
man suffrage. This silence was the
more amazing when we realize that in
Mississippi there are 223, 1858 more ne
groes than there are white people.
Southern men do not have to be
coerced into giving women the ballot.
Those who oppose at all do so from a
standpoint of sentiment rather than
anything else. There have always
been more men than women In the
South who believed in woman suf-
frage. The question has been agitated
to a small extent in the southern
states. The people have simply
thought very little about it. The most
active opponents among men to the
enfranchisement of women in the
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1914-03-28

United States today are those allied
with the liquor interests. Happily for
the woman's cause, the South is al
most wholly under prohibition law.
If the same effort to secure the ballot
for women had been made in the
South as has been expended In other
parts OF our country, this section
would have gone for woman suffrage
long time ago.
The southern states need to be or
ganized, that is all; not as "a solid
South" nor even as the South, but as
integral parts of this repubMc-work-
ing as a whole to gain enfranchise-
ment for women.

MERCY.

MERCY.
The quality OF mercy is not strand:
1t droppeth as the gentle rain from
heaven
Upon the place beneath; it is twice
bIess'd;
1t blesseth him that gives, and him
that takes:
lis mightiest in the mightiest: it be-
comes
The throned monarch better than his
crown;
His sceptre shows the force of tenn
porai power,
The attribute to awe and majesty,
Wherein doth sit the dread and fear
of kings,
But mercy is above this scepter'd
1t is an attribute to God himself;
And earthly power doth then show
likest Gods,
When mercy seasons justice. There
fore, Jew,
Though justice be thy plea, consider
this
That, in the course Of justice. none of
us
Should see salvation; we do pray for
mercy:
And that same prayer doth teach us
all to render
The deeds of mercy.
