In Memoriam

Samedi le II ecoule 6tait lannl.
versaire de la mort de Pie x. II ne
conviendrait pas de laisser passel
un jour 81 memorable sans accor.
der au moins un souvenir pieux
celui qu'on a appel6 5 juste titre
le pape des enfants ct des humbles,
lie protecteur des pauvres ct de la
saline democratic.
Get auguste vieillard, qui fut Ii
dole du peuple de Venise ct de la
catholicit6 tout entiere, realisa du-
rant son regne la magnifgue devi-
Sc quill s'6tait choisie: ''Instaura-
re omnia in Christie: "Tout res.

Rappelons, a la louange de Pie
x, quill a aboli lie droit de veto que
certaines nations catalogues sat
tribuaient en- temps detection pa.
pale, ct quill a soustrait rEglise
de France a linf faence pernicieuse
du pouvoir civil.
L Lillustre disparu, qu'on a SOU
vent appel6 le pape de pEuch;rris-
tie, vivra surtout dams la m6moire
des petits enfants qui ont obtenu
de lui le privilege de s'asseoir a la

Nous pourrions dire encore que
Pie X a 6t6 un grand r6formateur
dams le sens de la MODESTO, de la
simplicit6 ct de la discipline. Mais
les paroles quill prononca avant de
mourir, au su]et du conflit euro
p6en, nous ont surtout impression
ne:
"Dans pancien temps, disait lie
regrett6 pontife, le pape aurait pu,
dun mot, arreter tout ce carnage;
mais maintenant, il est impuissant.
Je commence a croire, a mesure
que la fin approche, que le Tout
Puissant, dams sa supreme bont6, a
voulu m'6pargner les horreurs don't
PEurope sera lie theatre. %. Je ne
cesse pas de prier Dieu quill mette
fin q cette inhumaine boucherie. :"
C'est apres avoir pousse ce grand
cri de piti6 ct d'amour vers les ma
tions bellig6rantes que Pie X a
quite la terre. II est done juste
que Phumanit6 chr6tienne ait pour
lui une pens6e ct une priere. Et
nous n'avons pas besoin d'etre sur

entendons 81 souvent Benoit XIV

THE ALLIES VIEW

The call for great meeting or
German Americans to be held in De-
troit next month to consider the
question of war exports was prepared
by men who at least appear to be
honest. 1t admits the legal right
of individual Americans to manu-
facture and sell munitions, but it
contemplates an organization which
will ask them to desist on grounds
of humanity and good neighborhood.
An appeal of this kind is not often
made in vain in this country OF
those who subscribe to it can show
that they have clean hands. How
many of the promoters of this move
ment have yer asked Germany to
prohibit the expectation of arms p?
How many of them have yer ques
toned the morality and humanity
of the Krupp industry? If German,
should gain even partial control o.
the seas next month, how many o
them mwould object to selling then
anything that she wanted to buy
from picric acid chlorine gas?
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1915-07-01
THE GERMAN VIEW

If Mr.. Bryan is sincere in his dec
larations, he will place himself at
the head of the movement to stop
the shipment of arms to Europe. II
he fails to adapt this issue his mes
sage to German Americans will be
as empty words. One can
not advocate peace and consent to
the shipment of the implements of
destruction. 1t is impossible to
preach good will among men and to
countenance the manufacture Of
fiendish products of concerns like
the Cleveland Automatic Machine
Company. Tt is inconceiveable to
us how President Wilson can dare
speak of humanity while this infer
nal traffic continues, while some OF
us wax fat on the blood money paid
for our part in the carnage of Eu-
rope. The world will speak al II
with a shrug of the shoulder al
Humanity, American Style" We
cannot see how the president who l!
surely not a blood thirsty or a crue
man can be blind to the fact that hi
appeal to humanity must seem Xix
a travesty to the Germans.

BEGINNING THE RIGHT
WAY.

TIL plan for a state fair in
Jacksonville was hooted by !
some of the newspapers at the
outset because the tentative
scheme for financing the propo-
sition called for subscriptions
from the several counties and
theprincipal source seemed to be
the sale of buttons. Wit no
more definite plan to work upon
the proposed fair would prove a
failure and it probably deserved
to be discouraged. But George
Mason has resigned his position
as a member OF the board of
bond trustees to give his atten-
ton to financing the state fair,
and we observe hat several
wealthy T Jacksonville citizens
have Clipped in a thousand dol
liars each to help. 1t begins to
look as if the Jacksonville peo-
lple meant business. and that
they are going to come to taw
with the money. If they dc
there is really no just cause fol
the boots. The Reporter-Stal
hopes to see the fair succeed
| 1t is Jacksonville enterprise
but We fail to see wherein thu
rest of the state will not get ;
fair proportion of the good t.
result from such an exhibition
provided the counties do thei
Ipart in the way of displaying
their resources. In any even
we are prepared to wish Georg
( Mason success in his patriot
service. George has hott
e that will probably be benefite
a by the fair. but it is not to b
e assumed that his motives ar
t entirely selfish. Besides Geore

t starts thing to carry it throus
h to success. And the Mason h,

TEMPERANCE $500 YEARS

My son, do not linger in the
wineshop or drink too much
wine. 1t causeth thee to utter
words regarding thy neighboI

Thou fallest upon the ground

by the way, that they are not de-

The Louis XVI Room, which is OF

Chicago may we'll be called a city
of MAGNIFICENT distances. And II
may be added to this that it is city
of magnificent hospitality. 1t would
seem that to be from the south
means to find the Chicago latcn
string on the outside. And when one
has opened the door one finds ones
self in a most delightful environ
ment of cordiality and friendliness.
Chicago boasts that it is a city OF
homes. Chicagoans claim that put
a small per cent of the population
live in hotels and apartment houses,
and vet hotels and apartment houses
play an important part in the life OF
the great city. Many of the apart
ment houses are homes for from
ninety to one hundred families, and
the big hotels employ very army
of men and women to look after
guests, and every possible device is
used To surround them with comfort
and an atmosphere of luxury.
Taking Chicago's most popular
hotel, The Congress, as an example
of the best in the hotel life OF the
city. one finds hotel modelled after
what is most modern adapted to the
standards of the more refined and
critical of pleasure seekers and
home-lovers, For the Congress hotei
follows the lines of elegantly APP
pointed home. The Elizabethan
Room. which is modelled after Hat
field House is even more spacious
than this celebrater English inter.
ior.
And the priceless paintings anc
tapestries, the rich panellng ane
won derful wood carving, the lofty
beamed ceiling, supported by srea
pilasters, the large library and tn
quaint writing tables, make it no
only delightful spot to write O
read, but a place of rare interest
where one may spend hours
study of the works of famous auth
ors, artists and artisans.
The Congress devotes a large
floor space to the public than an
other hotel in the world. This i
itself renders it unique and adds t
its interest, and it was here tina
the great Advertising Association

Confessed
To Double
Murder

Pensacola. July John Mitchell,
ono of the four men held in. the
county jail charged with the muir
der of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Wyman
at their home up Santa Rosa souno
a week ago. is reported to have con-
fessed to the authorities, admitting
that he and the three Roberts Droth-
ers committed the deed. Mitchell
as one of the first of the quartettep
arrested. for the reason that he was
barefooted, had peculiar shaped
foot and his tracks were EARLY 1den-
titled and followed. Even the boat'
which the four used in going to ana
from the scene, was found, having
been cast adrift, as described py
Mitchell. after the party had finish
ed with it.
State Attorney Stoakes, who had
made two trips to the scene OF the
murder. declined to admit that
| Mitchell had confessed or even DIS
cuss the case, but he is conhdent
that sufficient evidence will be SUD-
mitted when the special term OF
conrt convenes in Milton next Mon
day to warrant indictments and ne
will insist upon an immediate trial
of the case.
Feared Exposure
The primary motive OF the muir
der, according to the reported con
fession of Mitchell, was the fear o.
exposure on the part of the Roberts
brothers. Some months ago they are
alleged to have stolen and killet
some hogs belonging to Mr. Wyman
The latter was searching in tn
woods when he came upon the ROD
erts brothers with the bodies OF tn
hogs in their possession. They ar
alleged to have threatened to XII
Mr.. Weyman at that time, and thel
warned him that if the matter wa
reported or they ever heard OF mir
talking of the theft he would D

a Recently it became known in tn
