THERE ARE "soME WEEDS"
AT THE MATTRESS FACTORY
: = NNNA4N zee AAAAANN

Editor Pensacola Journal.
I note in this mornings Journal
your article headed, "Citizens Are
Complaining of Six-Foot Weeds" You
seem to think six-foot weeds are
some weeds. You never saw any
weeds unless you have seen "our
weeds" in the neighborhood of the
mattress factory, where they grow
in quantities and from eight to ten
feet in height.
| am sending you one of our ten
foot, nine-inch weeds as sample of
what we have. The city has always
had these weeds cut heretofore but
they have made no attempt to do SO
this year and it does look like the city
prisoners could cut them again this
year the same as heretofore.
Do not talk about weeds until you
see ours" for they are some weeds.

Ell Paso, Tex, Aug. 4.-Business

native merchants in Chihuahua, Mex,
according to official advices to Villa

General Villa who claimed exorbitant

The resumption, however, was said
to be conducted under the regulations

Mobile Is Reaching Out
for Pensacola Trade.

Mobile is intent upon forcing :
physical connection by the G. F. & A.
with the Louisville & Nashville rail-
road near Atrnore in order that Mo-
bile may profit by the extension Of
the Deep Water route up through sew
eral very fertile counties of Ala
hzma.
Representatives from that city
haze, on several occasions recently,
appeared before the Alabama rail
road commission and now have Sc
cured an order compelling the con-
nection. Says the Register:
mobiles rights are to be protected
by the Alabama Railroad Commission
in the Gulf, Florida and Alabama
cases" declared Mr.. R. G. Cobb,
traffic manager of the Chamber of
Commerce, who returned Tuesday
from Montgomery, where he attended
the meeting of the commission.
He said that the commission adj
vised the G. F. & A. that their petit
ton for an indefinite continuance Of
the order to make them install a
physical connection with the Louis
vile & Nashville at Atmore, was de-
MED, but that the commission gave
the railroad time to make their petit
tion more definite, and that this will
be heard between the present time
and August Is.
That the Alabama railroad commits
sion win issue any order that viii
divert trade from Pensacola has am
ply been demonstrated by past &C
TONS Mobile is Pensacola's chief
competitor in this trade territory
and the merchants Of that city,
through their representatives never
lose an opportunity to gain an ad-
vantage.
It is now up to Pensacola business
men to devise some method of meet
ing this class Of competition. The
G. F. & A. railroad is looked upon
as Pensacola institution, for it was
this city which gave it waterfront
grants and its citizens who sub
scribed to bonds insuring the com.
mencement of the roads construction
It therefore, should be this city and
not Mobile, to reap whatever benefits
in trade way that may accrue from
its completion.

The Escanbia Fair
Deserves Support.

The Escambia County Fair, which
is to be held Nov. / to s. is deserv-
ing Of the support of every citizen
of the county and in order to make
of it that success which is desired
it will be necessary for the officers
to be accorded this support. It is
essential that this. encouragement be
given now for the directors are
planning for the fair and it is neces-
sary for them to know in advance the
measure of support that will be
given.
It requires considerable money TO
give a fair, but the money donated
is well expended, for it is through
such exhibitions that the county is
developed and Pensacola, as well as
the entire county, must realize sooner
or later that they must depend in a
great measure upon the agricultural
resources of the county. To develop
these resources now viii bring pros
perity to the county that much
sooner.
The farmers are all interested in
the fair and the indications point to
one Of the most successful exhibi-
tions ever given in Pensacola. The
measure of success however, depends
upon the support now accorded the
association.

A KINDLY SCRIBE

"The editor of the Weekly Plain
dealer is charitable sort of feller,"
commented honest Farmer Hornbeak,
in the midst of his perusal of the
village newspaper, wherein he had en-
countered an example of the linotype's
peculiar perversities. I'm his article
on the death of Earl Dabsack who,
betwixt me and you, hadn't much to
recommend him except that he wasn't
quite as bad sometimes as he was
others, he says that the deceased was
generally regarded as hijjjdyt8o+hd
kkkisocknnwU yjjagaggy bentzt.'
, And / guess that's about as near
as anybody could get to making an
estimate of the departed without hurt
ing his relatives feelings"

the cheapest and quickest way to get

bursed in all directions. They could

HARD ON MINOR AUToIsTs

There is rigid passage in the high
way law of the state that imposes a
penalty for permitting youngsters be-
low the age of sixteen years to drive a
motor vehicle. Instances of local vio-
lation have been noted, and while, per-
haps, it would cause the kids a great
deal of grief to deprive them of the
childish amusement Of running a forty
or fifty horsepower machine through
the crowded streets, it remains that
many of the older heads haven't any
too much judgment in crisis, and the
youthful mind, or physical control is
hardly up to the point to be entrusted
with powerful piece of machinery that
can cause an accident in the flash of
an eye. The law in the matter should
be strictly enforced.
