THE NEW SPIRIT.

Speaking as a tax payer said T. A.
Jennings, at the bridge meeting Thursday,
Il don't care how high [ am taxed so long
as | can see I am getting something for the
money"
Mr.. Jennings then went on to say that
he was in favor of the Ferry Pass bridge
because he is in favor of every bridge and
road, for by roads country is developed.
Of course, we all know that wagon
road means as much to region as rail
road; that as many dollars in traffic and
merchandise roll across a country highway
as over twin lines of steel
We have known all this in literary sort
of way for long time, but we have not
made practical use of the knowledge. 1t
was too much trouble We didn't want to
spend the money. We preferred to wait
for the railroads-we thought that this
would be enough
But the railroads, when they saw we
weren't helping ourselves, didn't help
us either How could they develop the
country, reasoned the board of directors,
if the country didn't develop itself?
But the railroads gridironed the country
with lines in those regions which thought
enough of their resources to build high
ways-and this is one Of she reasons why
they have outstripped our golden coast in
the prosperity race.
A new spirit is making itself felt now
Mr.. Jennings gave it concrete expression
and it was easy to see that his sentiment ex-
pressd the feelings Of every man present.
Never was the need of public improve
ments SO strongly felt as it is now. We
know the necessity of development. It has
been proved to us so many times that
farms can't be made in a wilderness. We
have seen lands in other localities Jump
from $50 to $3.50 an acre within five years
because of road.
AS further proof of the new spirit which
is breathing the breath of life into Our COM
mercial welfare, may be mentioned the fact
that when for reasons that need not be dis
| cussed, it was deemed inadvisable to bond
Santa Rosa and Escambia counties for
building a toll bridge at Ferry Pass, steps
were Immediately taken to organize COM
/ pany of Our own citizens to secure a fran
chise from the two counties, subscribe the
stock and build the bridge. Seventeen shares
were sold Immediately. There is no doubt
that the franchise will be granted and the
bridge should be realized before many
months.
Our people believe in West Florida.
They know they will get results from
bridges and roads, and they are willing tc
pay their money out, either in taxes or in
vestment, to develop this region.

WOLFE FALLS Off
ROOF SECOND TIME

Elmer I. Wolfe fell through the
roof of the Gulf Cup and Still Com
pany's factory Friday morning, sus-
tanning serious internal injuries. At
the time of the accident he was re-
pairing the roof and one Of the Tim
bnrs beneath gave way.
This is the second accident of the
kind Mr.. Wolfe has suffered.
He was taken to his home at the
corner of Seventh avenue and Ger
vantes street, where. from last reports
he was resting easily.

CHILD IS STRUCK
BY MOTT RCYCLE

C. H. Henderson, riding a motor
cycle, was arrested Friday by Off
Ger Harper, charged with operating a
motorcycle in a fast and reckless
manner. The specific reason for Mr..
Henderson's arrest was because the
machine which he was riding struck
a little child, the daughter of Mrs.
Majors. The little one was said to
have been seriously hurt, although
not dangerously.
The case against Mr.. Henderson
will probably be called p in the city
court this morning.

CONSERVING AGAINST THE PUBLIC
HEALTH.

It is seldom that a newspaper is called
upon to expose such an outrageous cond1-
ton of affairs as exists at the Alcaniz street
incinerator, just two blocks from Palafox
street
The irony of it is that while the city
authorities are preaching Cleanup Week,
they themselves are perpetrating one of the
most fragrant outrages against public
health and decency conceivable.
There is a law prohibiting private per-
sons from putting garbage out in an I'm
covered can; but what shall we say of the
city authorities who take this garbage out
of the covered cans and then dump it in an
open lot, Just two blocks from our main
thoroughfare?
Fourteen loads of garbage day-all the
reeking filth of a city-are dumped at the
Alcaniz street incinerator lot. Fourteen
loads a day-almost thirty tons-and have
been for the past two weeks The miser-
able excuse offered is that the stuff was wet
by the rain and would not burn with the
paper that was being used for fuel. But
did the authorities try wood? Did they try
anything? Did they? The people have
right to know The people have right to
know why, with their money spent on an
incinerator, no attempt is made to use it.;
why, with sanitary laws, their own officers
appear to be. actually conspiring against the
public health? Fourteen loads of slop and
filth and dead dogs and cats Horses bog
to the belly in the horrible putrescence as
they drag the daily mess, to the dumping
grounds, two blocks from the main bust
ness thoroughfare.
Read what the Florida state law says,
and then explain, if you can, the conduct Of
the city authorities:
Section 1888: Revised Florida Statutes Nu-
injurious to health-fith, the contents
of cesspools, offal, garbage, foul water, dye
water, refusefrom manufactures, urine, stable
manure, decayed animal vegetable matter, or
other offensive substance, detrimental to health
thrown, placed allowed to remain in or upon
private premi ses, street, avenue, alley sidewalk,
gutter, public reservation open lot, within
any incorpor ated city or unincorporated town
village of the State of Florida, are hereby de-
clared nuisan ces injurious to health and any
person, who shall permit, create, maintain
the aforesaid nuisances, or either of them shall,
upon convict on, be fined not less than five nor
more than twenty-five dollars for every such
offense
The first time private citizen violates
that law, he is given the minimum fine II
he violates it again, he is. given the maxi
mum penalty, for the offense is aggravated
because he knows what he is doing. But
what shall we say of the city authorities
who knowingly have violated the law 50
persistently?

HIGH WATER AND FEW
SALMON SPOIL FEAST
Indians May Be Allowed Another
Chance to Wind Up the
Prosser Dam Pact

There was time in the dead days
! of the dim past when the Great Spirit
of the Happy Hunting Grounds fash
toned the seasons and stocked the
streams and woods to suit the con-
yenience of His children. But that
was before the tomahawk and the
flint-tipped arrow had found Igno-
miny in the museum or palefaces wrote
laws on paper and put brass buttons
on the men who were to enforce them.
In those days the Medicine Men en-
treated, and the Great Spirit granted.
today, even the Great Spirit seems to
have deserted the original owners OF
this country. In other words, the Yak
ina Indians are posing for the artist
who draws those acknowledgements
a-friend" pictures.
Some time ago the Indians agreed
to abide by the state supreme courts
ruling that they had no right to fish
at the dam across the. Yakima river
at Prosser, if the state game warden
would permit them to have one great
final feast. The day was set and the
guests invited but the salmon failed
to arrive. The feast day was moved
ahead and again last Saturday the In
dams and the game wardens assem-
bled in Prosser. And again the Great
Spirit failed to smile in benediction
upon the occasion. He sent cheap big
water down the Yakima and "tenas'
salmon up it and again the feast was
a failure.
In view Of all the circumstances
the Indians will probably be permit
ted to have another fish day.

! SUDDEN DEATH
caused by Disease Of the Kidneys.

The close connection which exists
between the heart and the kidneys is
well known nowadays. AS soon as
kidneys are diseased, arterial tension is
increased and the heart functions are
attacked. When the kidneys no longer
pour forth waste, uremic poisoning
occurs and the person dies. and the
cause is often given as heart disease, or
disease of brain or lungs.
1t is a good insurance against such
risk to send 10 cents for sample

coyery of DR.. Pierce. Also send
sample of your water. This will be
examined without charge by expert
chemists at DR.. Pierces Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, N. Y. When you suffer from
