SIDEWALK NUISANCES

If anyone proposed to build "a thirty
seven inch sidewalk, he would be deafened
with derisive boots. Yet thirty-seve
inches by actual measurement was all the
space left for the passage of pedestrians
by boxes and barrels heaped on the side
walk one day recently in front of South
PalafoX street store.
Despite the fact that section 129 of the
city ordinances orbids "the owner or occu-
pant of any lot or part thereof abutting on
a street of this city to permit any obstruct-
ion to remain upon the sidewalk" this Is a
nuisance that is daily committed, especial
ly on PalafoX south of Main
Greasy barrels, Junk, beer kegs, coils of
rope, what not, are there to snare the I'm
wary. The practice of repairing autOmo-
blles in front of certain establishments has
produced greasy condition of the side
walk there
And this is the principal street of Pen
sacola. Does it impress strangers with re-
spect for the city's progressivism?
An enforcement of ordinance 129 is nee
essary. Thirty-seven inches is not enough
Sidewalks are built for people to pass, not
to store merchandise.

THE TRIPLE SINKING

Technically, of course, the summarizing
of the Illinois, Vigilancia, and City OF
Memphis adds no new element to our INA
ternational problem-any more than the
equally unwarned destruction OF the Al
gonquin The number of Americans lost
is a mere matter of statistics. The TACT
that two of the ships were homeward
bound and in ballast is an unimportant de
tail when we remember how recently
Belgian relief ship, outward bound and in
ballast, was sunk outside Germanys own
BLOCKADE zone, and that little before
this a number of Danish ships were lured
into the open sea with a safe conduct to
their destruction.
Our problem is no diffrent from what it
always was. A single American killed,
single ship sunk is justification enough for
war if the offending country does not
give reparation and guarantees for the
future. If it isn't, then nothing is-not
the murder of ten thousand Americans, for
their lives could not be brought back by
battle; not the destruction of Our entire
merchant marine, wherever found, for
Germany's sinking ships in our territorial
waters could be no more illegal than it is
now; not the bombardment of Our coast
cities, for the interior would not be touch
ed; not subjugation itself, because we
would be allowed to live: even the galley
slaves were allowed to live, and if more
modern precedent is wanted there are the
Belgians.
Six American ships sunk since February
land many American lives 1ost-not to
mention the long string of victims of the
two preceding years! Washington is
right when it says that we are Virtually
at war with Germany. We have passed
beyond the stage of armed neutrality Ger
many, we know, will heed onl one argu-
ment. Though guns mounted on a mer-
chant ship are undoubtedly a great pro-
lection, Americans have right to the more
positive protection of the fleet seeking out
and extirpating the apaches of the sea.

congress Immediately to take war mea-

Bagdad, Kaiser Bill is ready to ac-

With German food conditions SO

for the diplomatic beans to be spilled

There was a time when gardenia

onion stalk is more in keeping with
modern conditions.

PROTECTION OF ARMAMENT

Showing how great the protection of
couple of guns will be to a merchant ship;
the captain of the Algonquin said: 1--WE
sighted the submarine when she was three
miles away. She was not submerged and
made a good target"
Effective torpedo range is about 500
yards. The submarine in question, there
fore, could only have used its deck guns ,
which is exactly what it did-and had the
Algonquin been armed, it would have re-
Piled. The duel would have been on ever
terms, for though the Algonquin would
have been better target, single bullseye
would have put the quietus on the U-boat
A submarine sighted at this distance
would not be molested unless it fired on
the American flag, or attempted to run in
to deliver the torpedo stab.
II am convinced" says the Algonquin
captain, Sfrom the cautiousness displayed,
that submarine commanders are taking 10
chances with armed ships" But unless
Germany is ready to abandon U-warfare
entirely we are not to lay the hattering
JUNCTION to our souls that she will desist
from attacking armed merchant ships,
whether they fly the American flag or not.
From German standpoint-and pirates
and assassins would take the same view
a country whose ships destroy. or attempt
to destroy, the Imperial submarines is no
different from formal enemy. This is the
basic fact for all German sympathizers or
lukewarm Americans to remember, lest
they find themselves suspected of positive
treason some line morning, for there car

Fortunate School BOYS

In a speech to the students of the
University Of Florida at Gainesville
the other day, Governor Cats said
that he would rather be a school boy
and have the school boys opportunity
of today than to be governor of
Florida. Come off, governor! The
campaign is over and you're elected,
and there is no need to keep up the
campaign oratory. You've got a bird
Of a joy in hand, and we strongly

that merely roasted in the bush of
your imagination.-Quircy Times.

FARMERS MAKE BEST FARMERS

Discussing potential farmers for this
region, the Lumber Trade Journal says
that our developers should center their Ell
forts on the munitions workers, the best
paid labor in the United States, and the
class that will be the first to lose their jobs
when peace is signed.
No one disputes the fact that factory
workers of all sorts long for farm lite.
They have studied it in the movies and on
the covers of The Country Gentleman, and
it looks good And given a wage larger
than the grocery bill, it's quite easy to in
terest them in a farm somewhere south
where the sun shines all the year and
where you can fish all winter and where
oranges shed their golden fruit while the
rest of the country is shivering under a
mantle of snow.
The advice of The Lumber Trade Jour
nal would be worth while following if
there was anything to indicate that these
hopeful people, once here, would make
worthwhile farmers.
But are we not liable to have a lot of
dead timber-economical speaking-on
Our hands? Making shrapnel gauging
guns, and handling explosives can not be
paration than moulding carwheels or sew
ing buttons in sweatshop; and the mere
possession of money does not insure sue
cess. To beginner money is more often
drawback than an advantage, on a farm.
1t stops initiative, it prevents the learning
how to do without.
When somebody without training,
wants to bay farm, it is of course neces-
sary to sell it to him. But it is not neces-
| sar to seek him out If he goes broke, he
will not be able to blame the country be-
cause the country will not have been rep
resented in false and alluring lights to him
And sometimes mechanics, factory hands
stenographers do succeed in the country
but these are exceptional cases. There are
too many people in the shoth already VIII,
do not know how to farm; the only color
| cation that should be encouraged is by rea
tarmers-1nen who know the science of ag-
riculture in all its exacting details and who
not having sufficient capital to buy where
land is high, must become pioneers.

BANKING RESOURCES OF SOUTH

That the banking resources of the South
are the staunchest in history is shown by
q $300,000,00O growth of state banks and
trust companies in the thirteen Southern
states in 1916, over the speeding year, and
$6OO,OOO,OOO growth of national banks
during the same period.
Growth was mainly in the item of de-
posits, for counting the liquidations, con-
solicitations, and conversion to national
banks, there were only thirty more state
banks in 1916 than the previous year
AS reported by Comptroller Amos
twelve new state banks were organized
Florida in 1916, with an aggregate capital
of $4,000; there were two liquidatio
with $4,000 capital, and two consolida-
tons, with $4,000 At the close of 1916
there were 2O4 state banks and trust COM
panies as against 1876 the year before; and
the increase in resources amounted to
$14, 33S, 1884.

packed house greeted the opening Of
the second days session Of the Ameri-
can National Livestock Association,
with President Dwight 3. Heard, of
Phoenix, Arizona, presiding. The fea
ture of the morning was the full report
of the marketing committee unani-
mously adopted by the convention. The
renort recommended vigorous continu-
alton of the committees work and
thorough investigation of the livestock
marketing situation by the federal
trade committee.
In addition to convincing statements
by members of the committee there
was memorable address by Walter L.
Fisher, emphasizing the vital necessity
to the stockmen of continuing the work
just begun. He talked of the organ
lied and always increasing power of the
packers and of the benefits already de-
rived from the work of the market
committee. Mr. Fisher was given an
enthusiastic vote of thanks
The afternoon was devoted to a dis
cussion of an increase of grazing fees
within the national forests. Hundreds
of protests against the proposed raise
were presented by various livestock
associations, and so general was the
interest in the subject that it was nee
essary to carry il over until tomorrow.
Secretary Houston has deferred his
departure until Sunday in order to hold
