PETITION LAW
IS ALL RIGHT
JUDGE JONES, IN COURT OF
RECORD, HOLDS THAT LEGTS-
LATIVE ACT, RECENTLY PASS
ED, Is CONSTITUTIONAL.

Judge c. NJ. Jones. of the court of
record, has passed on the case of
George kinSley, and in his opinion diff
ferS from an opinion handed down by
Judge Simmons in Jacksonville, some
time since when the same question
was passed on. Judge Jones holds
that the law respecting the signatures
to a petition for permission to do busi-
ness in the city of Pensacola, is a good
one and must be complied with. and
that the board of county commission
ers cannot lawfully issue a LIQUOR Ii
Cense unless a petition asking for the
saloon is circulated and signed by a
certain percentage, (Which is named)
of the white and colored voters of the
precinct wherein the saloon is to be
located. Said petition with signatures
must be published a daily newspaper
as is also required by law. In his
opinion, passed upon this particular
law was unconstitutional and void
The local case was brought up by
George KinSley, a saloon man, who
was represented by Scott NJ. Loftin,
said case coming up in the shape of
mandamus proceedings to test the
VI LIlC law NlLlN4l
was passed by the last legislature,
This counsel argued that the law
amounted almost to a prohibition of
the sale of liquors in the county, while
the voters in the last local option cleo
tion had declared against prohibition.
County Attorney r. P. Reese, how
ever. filing a motion to quash such
proceedings, contended that the law
was constitutional, and that it was not
prohibition, but regulation of the man
who should sell liquor. The law al
lowed the sale of liquor, which put
to rest the prohibition assumption on
/ the part of contending counsel, but
contended that before any man was
given the right to sell liquor, he
should establish to the complete salts
faction of the board of county COM
missioners that applicant is a fit and
proper man to enjoy the privileges
sought, and as an endorsement to such
fitness the law required that a peti-
tion as defined should be presented.
1t is understood that Mr. Loftin will
carry the case to cash such wit carry
carry the case to a higher tribunal.

GOVERNOR REMOVES
; TRAINED NURSES
Tallahassee Bureau,
The Pensacola Journal

Tallahassee. Aug. 14.-Three mem
bers of the state board of examining
trained nurses were removed by Gov
ernor Sidney J. Cats today and three
nurses appointed in their stead NAL
feasance and misfeasance in office
were the charges upon which the sus-
pensions were based. There are five
members of the board, with all three
of the nurses removed by Governor
Cats today, were in office when he
was inaugurated. Misses Thurza
Lyme Williams, Eula Lee Paschall and
lrine r. Foote were removed and COM
missioner as their successors were
Misses Mary Marshall, of Ocala
Laurie Baird of Gainesville, and Anna
l.. Fetting, of Miami.
The nurses removed are charged
with examining applicants individ
ually, and not a regularly called
meeting of the whole board as re-
quired by law failing to meet and ex-
anime nurses and grant certificates
Notwithstanding the great demand
and numerous requests for nurses
made necessary during war times and
that q number of the candidates who
were examined by individual members
of the board are asking for certifi-
cate and that majority of the board
have failed and refusSd to hold meet
ing in order that said certificates may
be lawfully granted"

TEUTONS ARE HOME GUARDS
FORCED BACK ASK FOR GUNS
CAPTAIN THORNTON TELLS
COUNTY BOARD MEN CAN'T
BECOME SOLDIERS WITHOUT
EQUIPMENT.

Captain n. H Thornton of the
Home Guards appeared before the
board of county commissioners yes
terday morning with a request that
the Home Guard Companies of Es-
Gambia be equipped with uniforms
and rifles. No action was taken by
the board on the matter, other than
to take it under Amusement, with a
promise for final answer to be made
at a special meeting on August 21-
In outlining the need for the equip
ment, Captain Thornton stated that
the absence of the uniforms and
rifles resulted in the members of the
companies taking less interest in the
work than would be the case were
the uniforms provided. In proving
this contention, he stated that when
the companies were first organized,
one had membership of 81 while at
the last drill, less than half that
number attended.
From a military standpoint, and
considering the efficiency of the men,
CAPTAIN Thornton stated that it was
OBVIOUS that a company of well drilled
men, without arms, is incapable of
dCNOlil JiiSiLIlIS any SOOuB "H4IC IL
properly equipped, a small force of
trained men would be able to cope
with any disorder which might pre-
sent itself. "Of course" said the
speaker, "there may not be anv dis
order, but when there is, it will be too
late then to prepare for it. If a
match were thrown on the floor in
this building, and the carpet ignited,
a cup of water thrown on it at once
would put it out, but if we had to
wait FIVE or ten minutes for the fire
department, greater damage would
result"
AS to the means for financing the
plan, r. NJ Cary who also appeared
before the board stated that he un-
derstood that Duval county had is
sued warrants to pay for the uni
forms, 1t is for the purpose of in
vestigating this phase of the situa-
ton that the delay in deciding the
matter is made.

LILLIAN CAMP ROUTE
SOON TO BE OPEN

Upon the promise of the board of
county commissioners yesterday
morning TO repair the road leading
to the Lillian bridge on the Escambia
side of the river, Charles Barclay,
builder of the bridge, stated that he
would start work Immediately build
this side of the bridge.
Mr., Barclay stated that the need
for funds had met with great re-
sponsc from a number of Pensacola
merchants with whom he communi-
Gated by letter, and that with the
money already in hand, the work will
be started. He is anxious, of course,
to receive other contributions. and
has sent letters to a large number of
Pensacolians requesting their as
sistance
AS soon as the board decided to act
favorable upon Mr.. Barclays sugges-
ton. the builder of the bridge, in a
short speech of appreciation stated
that of the money collected to fix the
bridge, all necessary will be used in
the construction of the trestle. All
other funds will be given to the main
tenance of the road.
In discussing the work at the tres
tie with The Journal yesterday morn
ing, Mr.. Barclay stated that as soon
as the road is made passable, and
easy connection between Baldwin and
Escambia counties is possible. that
business in Pensacola will receive di-
rect benefit. For this reason. he has
sent out the letters to the business
men, asking them to help in bringing
this new business to the city.

PEACE PROPOSALS BY
POPE ARE SUBMITTED TO
EACH OF BELLICERENTS
CASE OF YOUTHS
UNDER ADJUSTMENT

After the entire day had been
spent in taking testimony in the ha-
beas corpus proceedings against Cap
tain James F. Phillips of Company 1,
Judge William B. Sheppard took the
case under advisement late yesterday
afternoon, and adjourned court until
Saturday morning at ten o'clock.
The proceedings were brought sew
eral days ago by the fathers of James
F. and Millard Hurd, on application
for writs of habeas corpus. Judge
Sheppard granted the writs which
were returnable yesterday, and Cap
tain Phillips appeared before the
court to show cause why the two
young men should not be released
from service in the company.
Principally all of the testimony
centered in the attempt by counsel
for the boys fathers to prove that
they were under eighteen years of
age, and by the defense in showing
that they were more than eighteen,
and had so sworn when they en-
listed.
Under the first proposition, Mrs,
Martha Paul, mother of James +.
Hurd, was first placed on the stand,
and testified that the young man was
| born on August 5, 1900, and was
therefore seventeen years of age,
Sunday a week ago. She stated that
she made records of the dates of the
, birth of her children, and in 1910
| transferred all the records to another
| book, which was offered in evidence.
! Despite the severe cross examination,
| she remained mistaken in her testi-
mony, and was not confused when
asked tc give the dates of birth of
| her other children. Mrs. Paul also
testified that Millard Hurd, son of
| William Hurd, was born in November
! of the same year.
Assistant District Attorney Hoff-
man, who was directed by the attor-
ney general to defend Captain Phil
! lips, called Mark Joseph to the stand
in an effort to disprove the state
ments of Mrs. Paul.
The witness testified that he was
without personal knowledge of the
ages of the young men, but that his
niece and the elder of the two boys
were babies at the same time, and
{ DOlu we're GdISu 1OI ny HIS SISTER,
Mrs. Briggs. He further stated that
his niece would be twenty years old
next month. Mrs. Briggs was placed
on the stand and corroborated this
testimony.
Captain Phillips then took the
stand and testified that when James
| F. Hurd enlisted on May II he swore
that he was nineteen years and nine
months old, and that when Millard
enlisted on May Is, he swore that he
was twenty-one years and three
months old Official copies of the
enlistment papers were brought be-
fore the court but were ruled out as
evidence, the judge holding that only
certified copies, or originals are ad-
missable. This point in the case was
left open until certified copies of the
papers can be obtained from the ad-
| jutant-general.

Considerable excitement was caused
in the city hall yesterday when Elliott
McCloskey, one of the sanitary in
spectors, and Fire and Police Commits
sioner Frank D. Sanders, had a little
run-in, but they were separated be-
fore either of them suffered any in
jury to speak of. The commissioner
stated that McCloskey struck him the
first blow, and showed an abrasion on
his forehead and a slightly. bruised
eye. When the commissioner and in
spector were separated, the latter had
been crowded to the wall and appeared
to have been considerably punished.
