Tampa Wants Tourist
Hotel to Handle Trade

Tampa, as we'll as Pensacola, recognizes
the need of a hotel to take care of the
growing volume of tourist trade. A recent
issue of the Tampa Tribune says:
It is conceded that Tampa has more
tourist visitors this season than ever
before in its history-not alone during the
crowded period of the fair and carnival,
but throughout the winter.
Ct is also conceded that the same state
ment applies truthfully to all South
Florida
The conditions this season and the pros
poets of similar conditions next season i'm
press the necessity of the building of a
large tourist hotel in this immediate
vicinity, preferably in or near this city
The business done by the tourist hotels
of this section this year and in previous
years points to the fact that such a hotel
would prove an excellent investment
"The Tribune knows of no more advisable
or desirable direction for capital to take
than in building such hotel.
The preferable location is somewhere on
the Bayshore boulevard, the nearer the
city limits the better. A magnificent tour
ist hotel, similar to the Belleview at Bellair
would be admirably placed on the bayshore
and would pay handsome returns on the
necessary investment"

The Nation Should Stand
By the President

When Secretary Tumu1ty's attention
was called to canards appearing in certain
papers that the president had resigned, or
was considering resigning, he said:
An American newspaper that would
publish story of that kind in situation
like the one which now confronts America
dishonors itself"
But be it said to the credit of the press,
IN the main, the newspapers of the country
have stood staunchly by the president, as
have the American people. If the presl-
dent could be as sure of the loyalty of his
party as he may be of the press of this
country, he would have little TO fear in the
way of disloyalty.
This is no time for the newspapers to
give their columns to personal attacks or
heated controversies.
1t behooves the press of the country to
discuss the present situation dispassion-
ately. This is a time for sober thought
and careful consideration, not time for
party pickering and political machination
Upon the press greatly depends the tone
of public sentiment in this great crisis of
the nations affairs. Let the newspapers,
them look to it that their editorial columns
honor of the chief executive of this country,
who is so adequately and so patiently and
so vigorously facing situation which is
the most trying in the history of state
craft
Future historians will point to Wilson
as the ablest man of his day. Let those
whose duty it is to do SO, and whose privi-
lege it should be, give to him in his hour of
fierce trial their support and sympathy.
Be it said to their credit, that many who
have differed with the president in their
views, have showed to him a surprising and
gratifying loyalty in their appreciation of
the splendid fight he is making, and his
honesty of conviction, and realizing this,
while differing with him in some essentials,
they have refrained from attacks upon the
nations head, even in the halls of congress,
where some men of his own party have been
most traitorous.

No "Quacka ARM is
Wanted By United States.

OI making preparedness pans there is
no end. But many THEORISTS ARE
IODGING THE FACTS AS TO WHAT
AN ARMY IS, what it must be and what
it will be if it is an army at all Many are
trying to disguise this military thing under
such descriptive words as Industrial and
individual initiative
The trouble with alot of these theorists
is that they assume that conditions are the
sane as they were previous to the Euro
pean war. If the United States were fig
uring on a new scheme of military estab-
lishment, without the existence of the war
across the Atlantic, consideration of some
OF the industrial plans might be worth
while. But nearly all who are advancing
these sugar coated schemes are ignoring
the big fact that things are as they are and
not as they should be.
None of the schemes which advocate an
army that is not an army, or a navy that is
not navy have anything in them except
some interesting absurdities.
If we are going in for efficient militarisn
we should have no quack army.

Confessed FORGER
BACK To KENTUCKY
CHIEF DEPUTY SHERIFF or
DAVIS COUNTY, IN THE BLUE
GRASS STATE. COMES FOR HIM
WITH PROPER REQUISITI0N.

Armed with the proper requisition
papers, Chief Deputy Sheriff B. H.
Lancaster, of Davis county, Kentucky,
arrived here yesterday and win leave
tonight, having in custody white
man named Burt Adkins, who, ac-
cording to his own admission, is
wanted at greensboro, KY, for for
gerry. The prisoner is in the county
Jail, and two weeks ago admitted to
Policeman Jas. Reed that he was
wanted in Kentucky.
Adkins had quite an experience in
Pensacola. He is a cripple, and one
night while walking on Guillemarde
street, suffered fall, which produced
quite a wound on the head. He was
placed in the sick ward at the police
station, and after being released, call
ed To the officer named one day and
told him that Il am wanted in Ken
lucky for forgery; il there's anything
in it, you might take up the case" or
words to that effect. He gave his
address, the name of the parties who
would desire his presence at Owens
boro, and his suggestion that the par
ties named be wired was acted upon.
The police chief received message
within a few hours, notifying him to
hold Adkins, and that an officer would
be sent for him. Deputy Lancaster,
who arrived yesterday, secured all the
necessary documents before he reach
ed Pensacola in order that any re-
sistance against the return Of Adkins
be offset. Adkins, however, signified
his intention Of returning without
requisition.

H. H. BrickeIl Becomes Associated
With the Meridian Dispatch

H. H. Brickell, formerly editor of The
Pensacola News, leaves today for Meridian,
Miss, where he goes as member of the
staff of the Meridian Dispatch. Mr.
Brickell, in the short space of less than a
year, as editor of The News, has made a
place for himself in the community life not
easily filled.
His work on The News was of char
acter seldom seen on daily paper, for he
gives to whatever he writes a literary
finish that should eventually place him in
the front ranks of literary craftsmen.
A member of the Fair association, the
Carnival association, the Rotary Club, and
other organizations, he was liked for his
personal qualities as well as admired for
his character and abilities.
Mr.. BrickelPs associations with The
Dispatch promise to be particularly pleas
ant, as one of his deskmates will be a close
friend, Rice Gather, now with The
Dispatch.
The Journal extends its congratulations
to The Dispatch on having secured the ser
vices of Mr.. Brickell, and feels sure that he
will find in Meridian the same cordial
friendliness which was his in Pensacola.

RECIPE To CLEAR
A PIMPLY SKIN
PINPLES ARE IMPURITIES SEEK
ING AN OUTLET THROUGH
SKIN PORES.

Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and impuri-
ties which are generated in the bowels
and then absorbed into the blood
through the very ducts which should
absorb only nourishment to sustain
the body.
It is the function of the kidneys to
filter impurities from the blood and
acst them out in the form of urine, but
IN many instances the bowels create
more toxins and impurities than the
kidneys can eliminate, then the blood
uses the skin pores as the next best
means of getting rid of these impuri-
ties which often break out all over
the skin in the form of pimples.
The surest way to clear the skin of
these eruptions, says noted author
ity, is to get from any pharmacy
about four ounces of Jad Salts and
take tablespoonful in a glass of
hot water each morning before break
fast for one week. This will prevent
the formation of toxins in the bowels.
1t also. stimulates the kidneys to nor
nal activity, thus coaxing them to
filter the blood of impurities and
clearing the skin of pimples.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia
Here you have a pleasant, efFerves-
cent drink which usually makes PIN
pies disappear; cleanses the blood ana

The annual report of the American |
Highway Association says that mil
lions of dollars have been wasted un-
der the disjointed system of road J
building in vogue in this country. 1t
is estimated that we require 100000
miles of good roads to reach and con-
meet all the market centers, shipping
points and large centers Of population,
and we have at this time only 10000
miles of really good roads to show for
our expenditures, which, through the
state governments alone, reached $780,
100000 in 1914 and S55,000,000 in
1915. The entire amount spent an
nually for roads by states, counties
and townships probably reaches the
enormous total of $240,000,O00. And
probably half of this sum is wasted.
Now roads are a vital military asset.
The enormous area Of this country,
the vast distances over which troops
and supplies would have to be trans
ported in any campaign empha-
sis on which was laid during the Civil
War-conduce to make it highly de-
| sirable for the Federal Government to
lend its aid in Strengthening out the
situation and introducing order and
efficiency. 1t would seem to be worth
while for congresg-to enact some leg
islation which would make possible the
| granting of aid by the National Gov
eminent to the states for road build
ing in return for the right to super
wise and direct the work through army
engineers. The expense would not be
very great, and the economic advan-
tages, to say nothing of the military,
would make the money spent flow
back again ten times over. The diff
Guilty Of proper upkeep, too, might be
solved by using our tens of thousands
of rural mail carriers, who would be
called upon to traverse these roads
daily, as inspectors. A plan somewhat
similar to this was suggested by p.
H. DAILY, of Richmond, Va, represent
ing the Merchants Journal and Com
merce, before the house committee on
military affairs. He said that about
100000 miles of road had been built
in the last fifty years, 100000 miles
of which have been used for the last
seventeen years as government post
roads. To improve these roads and
build new ones, he would have every
county in the country put SIS, 1000 g
year in modern, scientific road con.
struction, instead of the present aver
age of $4,000. utilized for mud roads
With the $4,000 spent at the rate Of
about $4,000 a mile, much better anC
more permanent roads could not be
built than with the $4,000; and aftel
ten years of this scale of expenditure
we should have a complete system 81
roads auxiliary to the railroads. Final
| ", he would have the rural mail car
riers exercise some supervision ovel
the maintenance of roads, and in tim,
of war utilize them as guides fol
troops on the march. This last is +;
suggestion we have not seen made be
fore, and would appear to be worth!
of some study. The uses to which mel
so familiar with local topography a

would be innumerable in a campaign
