Circuits Compared - +.
A comparison of the operation Of
the closed water circuit and the cleo
trical circuit, shown in the accom-
panying illustration, will be of interest
inasmuch as they are quite similar.
The water circuit consists of pump
connected in series with water
motor by means Of several pipes, and
the circuit is controlled by the valve.
The pipes. pump and motor are sup
posed to be filled with water, and
when the valve is open there is flow
of water in the circuit; just as much
water returns to the pump as leaves
it; just as much water leaves the
motor as enters il: in fact, the current
of water is exactly the same at every
point in the circuit at any instant.
Remember, the water is not used up.
The electrical circuit consists of
generator connected in series with an
electric motor by means Of several
wires. and the circuit is controlled by
means of the switch. The generator
does not create electricity but merely
produces the pressure which tends to
cause the electricity to move through

PLANT SATSUMAS

Another of Escambia county's re-
sources was discussed Friday after
noon at a meeting of the Gulf Coast
Horticultural Society, namely the
citrus.
A number of prominent speakers
discussed results with satsuma
oranges in Alabama, Mississippi and
Florida and urged that more atten-
ticn be given the toothsome dainty
here.
Members of the Escambia County
Fruit Growers Association present
at the meeting stated that at their
next meeting they would take steps
towards affiliating with the Gulf
Coast Horticultural Society.
Among the visitors to Pensacola
were: DR.. 0. F. E. Winberg, of Sill
verhill, Ala, president of the Gulf
Coast Horticultural Society; Colin
Macdonald, of Grand Bay, Ala, Sec
rotary; w. H. Reynalds, of Mobile,
vice president.

is easy to see that the business of neutrality
is thing of the past.
Nobody can hereafter be neutral as re-
spects the disturbance of the worlds peace,
as the president said, for an object which
the worlds opinion cannot sanction.
The conclusion is plain that the nations
of the earth must be banded together to
prevent any future war No one knows what
caused the present one; they simply know
that it is giving no signs of stopping.
Peace. pacts and arbitration treaties have
failed, but force may take the place of
moral suasion.. No disarmament is con-
templated in the proposed league to enforce
peace; rather its success is dependent on a
most thorough preparedness. TN time of
peace prepare against war" might indeed
be taken as the motto of the league
1t, to give a concrete illustration the
United States had been properly prepared,
and if the armament of the secondary
nations had been greater, the neutrals
would have been powerful enough to forbid
the present war.
Leading thinkers in England are advo-
eating the plan, so it is not the Utopian
dream of nation which has not been

THE MEXICAN PLOT.

Secretary Bakers disclosure of plot for
Villa and other gentry of his ilk to attack
American forces and even raid American
territory, to turn the sentiment against
Wilson because of his Mexican policy, will
be imputed by the unthinking to political |
motives; but to international students there
are number of things that lend color to
the report.
Villas remarkable comeback within the
last few weeks must be due to something
besides his natural talents of leadership.
1t must be due to gold Remember, he
was a fugitive, skulking in cave; now he
is at the head of an army, as armies go in
Mexico; he has met and vanquished Car
rama forces, he has even demanded the
withdrawal of American forces from Mexi-
can territory.
He is gradually approaching the boun-
Diary line, and in the meantime Carranza's
and Trevino's families have suddenly come
to the United States, fact which has been
construed to mean that the de facto gov
eminent is topping
If Carranza is as weak as this, he could
not fulfill his pledges to police northern
Mexico and restrain the bandit raids which

Rio Grande. Carranza, it will be recalled
has no cause for enmity to the United
States; this country recognized him and
has helped him in more respects than one
and Carranza knows besides that American
troops can never be gotten out of Mexico
| by attacks of the kind contemplated.
Villa has money-where did he get it?
Fortunately, no Americans are implicated
| German intrigues in Mexico have been
mentioned so many times that this may
supply the answer today. Has Germany
something up her sleeve, that she wants
the United States occupied? Then, again,
there is the japanese possibility. But the
greatest probability is that the plot is
fomented by Mexicans themselves-either
Huertistas, resenting Wilson's policy to-
wards their faction, or Diazistas; for if
Diaz IS as powerful as he is reported to be
if, with Carranza in flight, Diaz plans to
assume the de facto government, American
intervention, by quelling insurrection,
would be of invaluable assistance to him.
/ As our troops are now forewarned. the
attack will probably never take place
though whether this country will be able
to escape ultimate intervention remains
yet to be seen.

DIsRUPTING THE PARTY.

Senator Fletcher announcement THAT ne
will support Knott should astonish no one,
anv more than the statement that ana
make 4. Tt is neither more nor less than
should have been expected. Senator
Fletcher is a Democrat; Knott is the nomi-
nee of the Democratic party, certified as
such by the highest Democratic body Ill
the state; therefore, Fletcher will vote Tor
Knott
Not to do otherwise would be to attack
the integrity of the Democratic party. and
bv dividing the white vote, to exalt the
negro to the balance of power.
That it is the purpose of the boiler
Cats and his machine to disrupt the Demo-
cratic party, is becoming more and mo
apparent every time.
SAYS the Free Press, Cats official or
gn: "If Fletcher opens his mouth or lifts
his pen to defend this steal, or participate
in this fraud by saying or asserting TO the
statement that Cats is not the true nomi-
nee, or that Knott is the true nominee,
why, Mr. Fletcher will not go back to the
senate Get that?"
Again, in an argument in support of
Cats, the Free Press focuses its fury on
Governor Trammell, the Democratic nom
inee for the senate, who is alluded to as a
'puppet of despotism and perfdy, plant
as potter's clay to the wiles of the devil
There is a lot more, all in King Canb ,.ses'
vein but it sounds too much like burles-
que to be quoted in serious discussion
The above, taken in connection with
Cats denunciation of Wilson, the fact that
he is circulating campaign literature for a
prohibition candidate for congress and a
Republican candidate for the supreme
court against Democratic nominees. and
the fact that Billy Parker is advocating the
election of the, Republican presidential
ticket in this state, while devoting its prin-
cipal energy to the election of its guberna-
torial candidate, proves that the Cats
machine is endeavoring above all to destroy
the Democratic party in this state
If Cats can ALLEVIATE enough of his
primary supporters, he may do it; fol
voting any than the Democratic ticket If
this election will bar you from voting the
Democratic ticket in the next one. If chal
lenged at the polls in 1918, you must sier
an affidavit that at the last general cleo
ton | did not vote for any nominee of an,
other party"
This would simply mean that YOU woulc
ultimately find your way into the Republi
can party-the history of all boilers in tn.
