SHERIFF IN IDAHO
SAYS LAURENCE NOT
WANTED FOR CRIME
TELEGRAPHED TO PENSACOLA
POLICE OFFICIALS THAT SUS-
PECT DOES NOT TALLY WITH
DESCRIPTION OF ACCUSED.

Ed Laurence, the white man who,
after being pulled from the. water
when he leaped from a ship going to
sea, told story which caused him
to be held as fugitive from justice,
is not wanted in Idaho for murder or
any other offense, according to a tele-
gram received yesterday morning
from the sheriff at Elk City, where,
it was alleged by Laurence, he had
trouble, and where, he intimated, he
had been wanted for serious charges.
Upon receipt Of the telegram from
the western state, the sailor was i'm
mediately released. 1t was said that
he left the police station smiling, and
appeared to have enjoyed the noto-
riety of being photographed by the
authorities and his entertainment in
the city's lodging house.
It was upon the strength of his own
assertions that Laurence was suspect
ed of crime in the northwest. As he
told it, he was in labor riot and
killed a man and woman. The police,
of course, began to sit up and take
notice, but events turned out proving
that you can't believe that a man says
about himself, even when he knocks
himself.

BAD TEETH.

Constant irritation of any part of the
body is now recognized as an important
contributory cause of cancer. One of the
forms of irritation which has been repeat
edly observed in this disease is the con-
slant friction of the sharp edges of bad
teeth, or of imperfect plates against the
tongue. ),
Sores on the tongue caused in this way
do not always become cancers Neither
are wounds from toy pistols always fol-
lowed by lock-jaw But there is danger in
both cases
A bad tooth should never be tolerated
in any event, and the danger of cancer is
only one more good reason for having it
attended to.
Cancer OF the tongue may occur at any
age, but it is most common between 40 and
go. Statistics show very few cases under
30 The majority of these cases occurred
in women, while in later years men were
found to be more frequently attacked
AS one-thlrd of all cases investigated
have been shown to be definitely associated
with Jagged or decayed teeth or imper-
feet plates it would seem that here is one
method of preventing cancer.
1t is probable that other conditions oc-
curing IN combination with bad teeth
increase the likelihood of cancer of the
tongue as a result, but the removal of this
form of irritation is so simple matter
that deaths in cases of this kind must be
charged to pure neglect,
If the removal or treatment of the tooth
does not relieve the situation and tn ulcer
continues, prompt operation is necessary
for this form of cancer is quickly fatal.

LAMB cHoPs-ANY STYLE.

The price of twelve lamb chops served to
a family of six the other day was S12O.
There was an elderly woman and a grow
ing child at table, and lamb chops, as
everybody knows, are highly nutritious
and easily digested, and. therefore, they
should be regularly on the bill of fare of
every child and old persons, and of certain
invalids.
But, at ten cents each, how many of
either class are going to have lamb chops
three times a week at least?
Not many-in spite of the fact that the
country has arrived at degree of pros
perity never before known in its history.
It has also reached the highest cost of liv-
ing plane in its history.
Many a $2-a-day man is now getting
$3.75 day But his, prosperity is not so
great as in some other decades.
High wages can never be viewed apart
from high prices. Any measure of pros
perity must be reckoned by how a man
the wage increase.
A year ago the best kind Of lamb could
be had for about % cents a pound; today
it costs 80 cents pound, and more in some
sections
But delicate people in every family re-
quire this delicate food, in some style, now
as before.
Some day, perhaps, we will think out a
social condition in which all such needs
will be satisfied
Now is a good time to start little
straight thinking How much dollar will
buy is just as important as how many dol
lars man can earn day

ANOTHER LESSON FROM THE WAR

Because we can grow all the wheat we
need, and mine Our own coal and iron ore,
and dig gold and silver for coin, we had
about forgotten certain interdependence
which exists between the nations.
But the war has taught US Now we
realize our need of a navy to the east of us
and navy to the west, and of merchant
ships to carry our extra products to nations
which will pay US for them.
At present we have to hire our carrying
done for US, although up to 1860 we were
able to do 80 percent of it ourselves.
Now we are paying freights which are
sometimes 1000 times higher than in nor
NAL times. Even before the war we were
paying between $2o0,0O0,0O0 and $780,
100000 annually to foreign shipowners-
paying profit to foreign capital and to for
eign labor instead of to our own.
At the outbreak of the war we had only
six American-owned bottoms CARVING
goods back and forth on the Atlantic, while
one German corporation had fleet of 500
ships. When the war broke out, foreign
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1916-06-09

merchant ships were either appropriated
for military purposes or interned. We
could neither buy nor sell abroad. When
commerce resumed, half the profits were
taken in freight charges by foreign ship
owners.
The lesson ought to be clear to Uncle
Sans children.
But, like many another national prob
lem, the average man passes this up as
being too intricate to bother about. Thus
we may get left again in the position of a
merchant with fine stock of goods but
no delivery system.
Put so, the lack of merchant marine is
clearly everybody's problem.
We may perfect the most splendid plan
for preparedness, and pay tremendous
sum for it, and yet spoil it all for the lack
of merchant marine.

THE SCRATCH PAD
By THOMAS EWING DABNEY.


Bill Powell at any rate knows it
pays to advertise, even though the
orchestration of the cows must have
struck him as problem difficult of
contamination.
Bill is a Bay Minette (Ala.) man,
who having intentions on his home
band, sent this ad to the Journal re-
Gently:
Wanted to buy a good slide from
bone; if you have a good one and
want to sell it reasonably, write"
Well, before long Bill received an
offer of some real estate. Consider
ing the ultimate use of ground, this
may have been taken as yelled
threat. Then came a proposition re-
garding piano, quickly followed by
the proffer of sewing machine.
Now, Bill didn't know that by ty-
biographical error the name of the ar
ticle desired had been omitted, max
ing the ad read ''If you have a good
one and want to sell it reasonably,
ETC., etc., ETC."
Presently came an intimation from
Miss Nineteen-Year-Old that the
question of matrimony would strike
a responsive chord in her bosom; the
next mail brought the offer of a
baby carriage in good condition.
Now Bill says the joke is on The
Journal, and we leave the task of
rebutting him to the ribald para
graphers of the land.
Judging by the number of boons,
Chicago may be called the Verdun of
America.
Speaking about close election re-
suits: w. H. Thompson, of Santa
Rosa, won as clerk of the circuit court
by one vote; the score being 7O1
against 700. If the truth were told
the man who cast the winning ballot
is feeling very much like Warwick,
the King Maker, today.
The fact that the Board of Pardons
meets on July the Thirteenth will be
accepted as ominous by a number of
people.

victory that never happened was al

THE BIRTH Of A
NATION SCORES
A BIG SUCCESS
INTENSE ENTHUSIASM AS GRIF-
FITH'S HISTORICAL MASTER
PIECE is PRESENTED AT THE
OPERA HOUSE.

The Birth Of a Nation, Grifith's
historical masterpiece, played before
a large and sympathetic audience last
night at the Opera House.. Many
veterans of the civil war were pres
ent as guests of Manager Levy gave
frequent demonstration of their en-
thusiasm. The general effect was
heightened by an excellent musical
score arranged specially for the play.
The play is based on Thomas
Dixon's "Clansman," but recounts
some Of the history of colonial days
in a presentation of the first slave
ship arriving in America, which of
fers the keynote for the plot.
In a>few deft sketches the life in
the Northern and Southern states is
pictured, a social visit between
friends in the two sections develop
ing into the love theme of the action.
Swift events plunge both sections
into war, and with open strife exist
ing between the two sections, the
main characters on opposite sides, a
dramatic tension is created.
In the staging of great battle
scenes Griffith displays his wonder
full technique and mastery of de-
tail. With vast valleys as stages and
mountain ranges dim with distance
he presents a cost of tens Of thou
sands.
And yet with the same dizziness of
touch he selects a peaceful vale and
characters of strife replaced by sim
pie motive offers 4 contrast to the
other which is fairly bewilde1ing.
Henry WaIthall, as the little Col
onel," Ben Cameron does some ex-
cellent work, while the support Of
his co-star, Lillian Gish the major
roles are well cared for. The same
discriminating selection is shown in
the minor roles. Mae Marsh, as
Flora being an excellent example.
The portrayals Of negro characters
is exceedingly good, and the great
leaders Of the time, while taking no
active part in the play, were almost
lifelike.
In act II the horror of reconstruc-
ton is shown, and the birth of the IN
visible Empire, which played such an
important part in the downfall Of
negro rule. Swift action brings the
play to a climax, and with the plea Of
the leaders of the Ku Klux Khan for
Liberty and Union, One and IN
separable, Now and Forever" the
North is actually united with the
South; and truly with the ending of
the love theme.

H. B. Warner in ''The Raiders" Isis
Today.

Today.
H. B. Warner, who is starred in
''The Raiders" at the Isis today, be-
gins the story as a Junior clerk in
brokers' ossice. From afar ne wor-
ships his employers daughter, never
dreaming that his chance to win her is
so close at lind.
1t comes when HaIdeman, the brok-
er, goes away to the AdriondacIs for
a brief rest, leaving his affairs in
the hands of his broker, Burnes.
Burnes is a schemer, and he at once
plans to get control of the Haldeman
stocks. But first he dispatches two
henchmen to insure Haldeman's stay
ing away in the mountain camp until
the deal is put through.
Haldeman duly is prevented from
getting away, and, miles from civil
lization, he sees no chance of rescue.
But Warner, in the role of Scott
Wells, the brokers' clerk, has over
heard some details of the conspiracy,
so, with the assistance of Haldeman's
daughter, Dorothy, he takes the place
of Haldeman on the floor of the Elk
change and fights Burnes to a finish.
Then, having handicapped Burnes so
he can do no more mischief, he goes
to the rescue of Haldeman in the
mountains.
The speedy trip which he makes
with Dorothy in a high-power car is
filled with thrills of the first order,

STRIKES.

Ae the exnort trade of the United States
in munitions amounts to only i've Percell
of orr total trade, the conclusion OF peace
can have no financial result on this coun-
trv. Rather the resumption of the Dusl-
ness interrupted by the war will more tnan
offset this five percent, according to sta
tisticians and fnanciers. :,
More far-reaching results, however, Will
peace have on labor conditions in the
United States.
From November, 1915, to April, 1916,
the number of strikes and lockouts in the
United States was 1,069, according to the
monthly review of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics they have been steadily 1ncreas-
ing until, in April alone, there were 2b2
strikes and eight lockouts, number that
is considered exceptionally large.
The cause is attributed by the bu-
reau to
"The great demand for labor by es-
adjustments engaged in filling war or
ders, resulting in a temporary short
age in all related occupations, which
manufacturers have not been able to
prevent because of the great decrease
in immigration"
This demand for labor has been accom-
panied by demands for increased wages,

The largest number Of strikes were in
the metal industries, strikes of machinists
occurring in California, Colorado, Mime
sofa. Missouri, Ohio, West Virginia, Penn
sylvania, New Jersey, New York, Con-
necticut and Massachusetts,; and strikes
of mo1ders, b1acksmiths, and boiler-work-
ers in nearly all the Eastern states men
toned above Miners strikes were con-
fined mainly to Ohio, Pennsylvania and
West Virginia. Several strikes of seamen
occurred at the ports along the Atlantic
seaboard
In eighty percent of the cases the cause
of the strikes was demand for increased
wages, and of 40 strikes reported as end
ing in April, thirty-four were won, sixteen
lost, seventy-five compromised; while in
five the strikers returned to work under the
promise of the employer to arbitrate the
matters in dispute. The duration of seven
ty of these strikes was given as follows
One week or less, A one to two weeks, 6;
