NO LATER T1PPLING HOURS.

OF the blind tiger, the greatest evil IS
that it knows no closing hours; and the
local officials, by their determined stand
against such illicit dispensaries, are seek
ing, not only to collect the revenue that
rightfully appertains to the city, but also
to regulate the liquor traffic and keep it
within due bounds.
1t is not to be presumed, therefore, that
the city commissioners will pay any atten-
ton to the petition presented by the tip
ping houses to keep open until IL o'clock
at night.
The present hours, from 5 a. m. to 10

be most unfortunate.

FRANK |. MAYEs.

Editor Tribune: l am pleased to
note your recent editorial in regards
to memorial editions of the Florida
press December 16-anniversary of the
late Honorable Frank l. Mayes.
One of Mr. Mayes' strong charac-
teristics was Finding People" That
is, he had a happy faculty Of discern
ing gifts, or talents, in people who
were hidden" from the public.
He was a close student of human
nature and picked out strong points
that the casual observer would not
have so readily noticed. Eight or ten
years ago the writer was a frequent
contributor to some of the Florida
journals in the way of short stories
under the fairly well known nom de
plume of which he still writes. Mr..
Mayes was sufficiently attracted by
the stories to ask for a regular con-
tribution Of them which he published
in the Pensacola Journal for two or
three years. He then asked me to go
to Pensacola and accept a position on
the paper. was not long in the serv-
ice before he frankly told me As a
friend (and l have never had a truer
one in literary attempts) that / was
not gifted for the news end of journal
ism on daily, but that I should by all
means apply myself and give my en-
tire time to short story-writing. He
encouraged me in this line and up to
the time of his death he wrote me

to encounter no insuperable obstacles. We
will know for certain by Germany's re-
ioinder to the Allies reply. Everybody
concerned has always been eager for peace
--on his own terms. Germany's request
today is nothing like the conquest-terms
she has been suggesting ever since the
Marine; nor are the Allies so set on conclud-
ing negotiations in Berlin. The object for
which they are fighting is not an indern-
1ity, but to rid the world of the military
tyranny of which Junkerthum is the only
surviving example; and if that object is.not
accomplished now, they might as well go
on fighting, instead of having to start the
battle all over again. at some future date.
