THE TRUST COMPANY AND
THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK

Editor Pensacola Journal:
The failure of two Of our banks in
rapid succession, together with the
bankrupt cases following, IS a matter
that should cause every man to pause
and study the reasons why such an
economic misfortune should occur in
city so well situated, and full of ad-
vantages, which other cities are de-
vol OF, and yet more prosperous and
pros essive.
We do not believe that the causes
lie hidden in a problem too deep to be
unearthed. We believe that they stand
out as plainly as a torch light process
ion on the darkest kind Of a night, and
the features, instrumental in bringing
about our present depression, may be
resolved into evils which could have
been avoided by proper vigilance and
business caution.
What these evils are should be
known by every business man, and to
define them will require but a few brief
sentences.
Easy credit, the extremes to which
loans were carried. free from the
proper safeguards to protect them: the
inconsiderate way in which they were
granted by the lender: the indiffer-
ence of the borrower to the Importance
equal to Sultan of Turkey" strand
ed city. whose prospects are as
bright If not brighter than any city in
the south.
The shock given our city by business
naladministration, is not too severe
for us to survive, and we regard it
but a lesson taught by natural law
for the benefit of man in his future
progress, and we believe that the prop
osition to take over the responsibilities
of the First National Bank. by form
ing q Trust Company, is the best that
could be devised, and should receive
the support of every depositor, bust
ness man, and citizen who has his city
at heart.
We appeal then to the few doubling
Thomases whose confidence has been
shaken by the unfortunate suspension
of one OF the oldest banks in the
state. not to oppose a movement which
we think will rebound to the interest
of our city and all concerned.
While we know that it is natural
for man to lose confidence in human
enterprises when once injured, there
by, from bad management, we still
cling to the determination of repair
ing the injury by more rigid discip-
line in business methods, and vigil
lance. which will restore a confidence
greater than that practiced in the
past, and which will place business on
sounder basis and a more perfect
safety.
We stand then, squarely in favor of
the Trust Company taking over the
bank, resuming business, and saving
an institution, which an opposition
thereto, would be an evidence of weak
ness on our part, and which we should
be ashamed to acknowledge.

THE RECENT DEMISE OF
Mr.. HANSON'S JACK

Jacksonville Metropolis.
,~%~~%%%~~AA~~~~

With its issue of Tuesday the Jack
sonville News ceased publication.
This morning Mack R. Turner, a
deputy from Sheriff Dowling's office,
served q. writ Of replevin upon the pub
fishers for the Southern Fixtures and
Supply Company and removed from the
premises the office fixtures Three
dTay loads Of furniture were carted
away by the officers of the law.
The first issue of the News came
out on December 18th last, and con-
tanned forty-four pages of eight COL
umns each, with the exception of the
four pages of comic, and four pages
Of magazine, which were seven col
umns.
The first issue of the paper was
filled with advertising, and looked
prosperous. The paper was established
by Clarence B. and Albert Hanson,

vertised as the leading newspaper men
Of the South. and financially interest
ed in newspapers published at Bir-
mingham, Montgomery, Mobile, Ala
bama and Pensa cola, Florida. They
came advertised as being possessed Of
immense sums OF money, and the
heaviest backing OF any newspaper
owners in the South. They came with
a splendid newspaper plant with all the
equipment necessary for getting out
a good newspaper.
It looked like every condition was
suspicious and the hackers Of the pa
per claimed to be possessed Of every
thing necessary to make a. success Of
IT.
But after very brief existence the
News was forced to suspend, on ac-
count Of a lack Of circulation and ad-
vertising patronage.

SOME VALUABLE FACTS ABOUT
THE GROWING OF PECANS

Editor Pensacola Journal:
VIII some entomologist please in
form me why the pecan caterpillar
failed to make it's appearance in Au-
gust of last year the same as it did in
previous years.
About the middle of June the pecan
moth (datana angusiD deposits her
eggs on the under side of the pecan
leaf about 200 in number and spherical
in form. When first Matched the young
larvae feed only on the under side Of
the leaf, but as they increase in size
they eat the whole leaf except the mid
rib. In few days they are about half
grown. Then they come down upon
the side of the trunk and they get to-
gether to have a family reunion" for
a couple Of days. Afterwards they
crawl back up the tree and strip it of
it's leaves. When mature they de-
scemd the tree to the ground and enter
the earth for an inch or so and then
they transform into a chrysalis and
make their temperance in August.
They didn't reappear last August
and I want to know why. 1 am GER
tainly glad they didn't come back as
they do considerable damage. After
they have eaten the leaves the tree
puts out new ones and the next year
the tree does not bear. l believe l was
the only one in my section of the coun-
try that had any pecans this year. I
fought the caterpillars. 1t was very
simple and only required 8 few min
utes.
Some are under the impression that
the pecan caterpillar spins web, but
such is not the case The moth that
makes the web is a tent caterpillar
and is easily destroyed by splitting the
small end of a fishing pole for about
six inches, dropping in a small wedge
and twisting the web out Never put
a fire to your tree.
The pecan tree has another enemy.
1t is called the ''twig girdler" or what
the boys can humping beetle" This
lady gnaws groove around the
branch. then she deposits her eggs on
the limb that falls to the ground in
order that her young will have dead
wood upon which to feed. Burn every
limb that falls to the ground and you
will get rid OF them.
A pecan grove is a paying crop pro-
viding you cultivate and fertilize well,
otherwise you had better let 1t alone.
A pecan tree that is neglected won't
grow six inches in six years. 1 would
advise anyone who has the pecan
fever" ta read the article in The

is hereby granted the privilege of
placing in the statuary hall Of the
capitol the statue of John Gorrte. now
deceased. who was g. citizen Of Flor
ida, ilIustrious for distinguished civic
services"
There is awonderful sermon OF a
few words conveyed in this resolution.
"Illustrious for distinguished civic ser
vices" in the case of DR.. Gorrie. is a
phrase that embodies much meaning.
The production of artificial Ice has
meant more for the comfort of hu-
invention. It has alleviated the suf
fering of millions and saved the lives
Of thousands. And, like many other
wonderful discoveries or inventions, 1t
actin this instance an act Of human
kindness, and the love of a physician
for his patients.
DR.. Gorrie made the discovery OF the
process which has meant so much to
the whole civilized world while work
ing in his laboratory, endeavoring to
produce a cooling process by which he
might minister to the suffering Of
fever patients, in his home town, Apa-
lachicola, and in his experiments for
cooling the air artifically, he produced
artificial ice, a process which has
been so perfected since death as to
have enabled the world to profit there
by.
1t is matter of great pride to Flor
ida that one of the states illustrious
sons is to be honored, even at so late
a day.

Calmness, tranquil sleep. clear eyes, nor
