chance literature as President Wilson's
message dropped by airplane into their
trenches.
Yet even in Germany the urge is being
felt. In the reichstag itself have the social
democrats raised their voices in behalf of
liberty. Only the other day one of them
uttered sentiments that sounded strangely
like Patrick Henry. He was accused of
treason-so was the American statesman
of the eighteenth century.
Autocratic Germany is the only Gerz
many with which we are at war-the little
group of ambitious men who are deceiving
and sacrificing the people to their own sell
FISH ends. With the people we are sympa-
thetic-victims no less than they, of cum
ningly contrived plan of deception and ag
erosion, worked out in the privacy of the
court for the advantage of narrow and
privileged class.
The president spoke the truth when he
said that mo autocratic government can
be expected to keep faith within it. and
that only free peoples can hold their pur-
pose and honor steady to common end. !"
When autocracy is overthrown, the world
will no longer be at war with Germany,
because the impossible where
public opinion commands and insists upon
full information concerning all the nation's
affairs will be removed That day the
entrance of the United States into the
struggle against autocracy-greatest of
| the neutrals-should hasten, for censor
| ship, the vote of hundred million free peo-
/ pie will have a tremendous effect on the
national mind in Germany. May the social
democrats of that country speedily hold
out their hands to us-America, as Senator
Fletcher suggests, will be the first to
grasp it.

FOR us TO SAY.

O. !. SemmeS, when he declared at the
meeting of the Law Enforcement League
the other day, that this was the first time
in all the nineteen years of his residence
here that the citizens of Pensacola had
offered to cooperate with the authorities,
or taken an active interest in the main
tenance of order, put his finger on the real
reason for the lax conditions of the past.
Difficulty in securing convictions in tiger
cases until very recently, for instance, IL
lustrate how public sentiment has been
against the enforcement of law. There is
still great Discrimination of people to re-
port offenses-a. form of cowardice, both
moral and physical; worse still, low form
of politics-"friends' seeking to cover up
the muddy tracks lest someone crltlcise the
municipal house keeping; and enemies"
willing to encourage anything that may be
made the basis of loud and lingering
knock-both unable TO realize that they
are doing the worst thing possible for their
friends" and for themselves.
Sounding new note in municipal har
mony the Law Enforcement League-for
it is to have permanent Organization
shows that Pensacola does possess civic
patriotism Assured of this cooperation,
the authorities have announced that the law
will be meticulously enforced. Service
clubs will be required to live up to their
regulations longer saloons under a
sweeter name. Liquor men themselves will
assist in stalking the blind tiger. Regrila-
tions governing the segregated district will
be rigidly applied, and resorts will be made
bone-dry after 6 p. m. Conditions in the
residential part of the city that were rem
dered possible simply because nobody was
brave enough to demand a cleanup, have
been remedied.
Is the law being enforced Has anything
been overlooked? Will the new broom con-
tinue to sweep clean?
These be questions which you, Pensa-
colans, thirty-three thousand strong, are
better able to answer than the score or SC
of police Your town is what you make it
and the better you are the better your Off

WHEN GERMANY HEARS THE
CALL

Senator Fletcher suggests an interesting
train of thought in his declaration that this
country should extend the hand of friend
ship to the social democrats of Germany
in their efforts to overthrow autocracy
Of the war, the primary objects-what-
ever they were-have been forgotten in the
struggle between the medieval and the
modern governments, between the divine
right of kings and the inalienable rights of
mankind. When Russia became demo-
cratzed, for instance, its resistance became
more determined. No matter what the form
of government in the entente countries, the
spirit is the same-republican
1t could not be otherwise. With the
people pouring out their lives and their
treasure for "the cause" on a greater scale
than ever before in the worlds history, it
is not strange if they have found they are
the real rulers after all, and demand to
share the fruits of peace equally with the
sacrifices of war Millions of men from
every part of the world brought into con-
tact, have learned what the freedom OF
other lands is, and they are taking the
great discovery back home. Not per-
I centage of the people, but entire peoples
are being so leavened
Isolated from the rest of the world, the
! process is slower in Germany, Austria and
/ Turkey. From each other they can learn
nothing; censored press shuts off world
developments, and their only contact with
], democratic tendencies is through such

Loyalty Pledges

Hundreds and hundreds of loyalty
pledges have been received in The
Journal office, and still they continue
to come, with no apparent diminish
ment
The Veterans throughout the coun-
ty are registering their loyalty in
no uncertain terms. 81 want to sign
the pledge, and if Uncle Sam should
need me, l am at his service. I am
an old Confederate soldier. The last
battle that | was in was just above
your town, on the Escambia river,
where my General Clanton was shot
down." wrote one Confederate Vet
eran of Chipley.
From Cantonement came this let
ter, also from soldier who wore
the grey in the civil war:
81 am signing one Of your loyalty
| pledges, which affords me pleasure.
| l am an old Johnnie Reb, seventy
two years old. Went through the
entire war between the states and can
still shoot pretty well, and if my
country and my flag needs me, am
ready"
Writing from Cantonement, a vet
eran says:
81 enlisted in the Confederate army
in 1861, with the First Florida reg
iment, and served through the entire
war between the states. Am now in
my eighty eighth year. Can't walk
much, but If Uncle Sam will furnish
me with a wheel chair, / am still a
good shot"
A father in Pensacola writes:
| "I have one son who will be nine
teen his next birthday AS soon as
he gets home he will volunteer. We
are both withSthe Stars and Stripes
to the last. Would there be any
way made for a mans family to liv<
if he should volunteer? would like
very much to help in some wav. but

ing. But if it comes to show dowr
| will put my shoulder to the whee
and help keen Old Glory hoisted.
From Harris. Fla. one woman wht
signs the loyalty pledge, writes:
'T am a prandniece of Geore,
Washington. NV great grandfathe
was the first colonial governor o
Virginia"
A letter from Cottage Hill bear
this message:
"While four brothers fought i

The mail was very heavy o.
Wednesday, and each day pledges ar
coming in from all parts of tn
county.
All who have not signed the 10y
atty pledge, are asked to do so a
once.

THE SCRATCH PAD
BY THOMAS EWING DABNEY.


A girl is said to be fresh when
you have to watch out for the paint.
1t is hard to say what has bene-
flied Russia re-putting the lid on
booze or canning the car.
AS you say, -Imogen, man who
wouldn't enlist is not worth kiss
in hail storm.
Though men are commonly sup
posed to know nothing about fem
mime styles, they are able to ten you
that many sweet things in shirt
waists arc now being seen.
"Let freedom ring" is what the
judging by the way Kaiser Bill is
squirming, somebody must have
changed it to sitting"
This is the time Of the year when
men, responding to the appeal to join
in the national hymn, sing "My coun-
try, tits of thee, sweet land of lib
erty" with great determination, and
from then on, moan the tune through
clenched teeth.
It>is with intense dismay that we
learn of the death of Captain Leone
Sextus Donys Oswof Fraudati Filius
Tollemache de Orellana Planta genet
Tollemache-T ollemache at the British
front. He was a brave officer and
it will take all the recruiting offices
can do to fill the gap.
In view of representative Levers
| proposal to solve the food situation
by closing the distilleries, which use
| 600 million bushels of grain year,
it may be reliably stated that among
| the thousand wooden ships this gov
eminent is to build, not single
schooner will be found.
The Germans now say that they
retired from thousand square miles
of territory so that the trenches, re-
doubts, and preparations made for
the great spring drive would be rem
dered valueless. But inasmuch as the
Allies got more territory than, they
expected to gain by assault, they are
not worrying and would be willing
to swap such useless" work fol
strategic retirement all the way to
| Berlin.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1917-04-13
ROMANTIC TWENTIETH
CENTURY.

One Of the most remarkable fallacies of
today is that this is a prosaic and unro-
mantle age, when as a matter OF tact 1t IS
the most poetical and romantic age the
world has ever seen.
What are the feats of knighthood COM
pared with the miraculous heroism of to-
days battles? What forlorn-hope charge
of antiquity equals the bravery of holding
a trench when shells fall so thick that
craters connect? Was it the danger or the
uncertainty of Ulysses wanderings that
comprise their. romance?
There is nothing romantic in uncertain
ty-a, drunken mans course is uncertain
but who would say there is anything heroic
about it? And the perils of Ulysses do not
compare with the perils of the Moewe,
which, operating in the patrolled lanes of
ocean traffic. has been in hourly danger of
destruction, and has four times run the
blockade of Germany. If Ulysses wander
ings are interesting because they had a
successful termination.
No deed or romance excels the feat of
the young Canadian officer who, with a
small detail was cut off from his COM
pany in certain charge, and entrenched
himself IN mine crater close to the Ger
man line, and with half his force killed and
| the rest wounded, held out forNtwo days
until relief came and then joined the vic
torious charge, rendered possible by his
dauntlessness? Yet deeds like this, which
| in former times would have been famed in
song and story, are so common today that
half dozen lines in the newspaper is the
most they can expect.
| In place of legendary miracles, we have
real ones today-Secretary Daniels at his
desk in Washington, for instance, talking
directly, not only with every naval station
in the country, but with ships far asea as
well, and directing coast defense thousand:
| of miles long as easily as maneuvering {
company of soldiers; we have submarines
/ airplanes, surgery, locomotives, and
| thousand things besides.
The poetry of steam Thetchythm O.
factories! Working in steel instead O.
stone, the modern age creates live f1achin
cry, instead of dead statuary- actua
things, instead of models. Who is it say!
that sculpture is more beautiful than
piece of machinery. Who is it says
painting is greater art than moving pic
ture? Compare the suggested force of TIL
LAGOON with the actual power of the auto
mobile engine. The old masters are grea
but the new masters are greater.
What is romance if it is not efficiency
| Achievement? We admire certain deed
because they were successful, not becaus
of the conditions under which they wer
done. Leander swan the Hellespont, bu
that was only because he didn't have al
| airplane-an infinitely greater achieve
ment.
Because this is the most efficient age 0
all, it is the most romantic, it is the mos
wonderful.

Redbear hesitated, stepped more
aside from Hardy, and began to pour
out a torrent of L;lkotah. He had SpO-
ken only few sentences when wave
of agitation passed over the semicircle
of Indians. Blankets slipped down
from cOpper-red shoulders; fierce eyes
glared menacingly at Hardy. Several
of the more excitable bucks ieaped up
with bow and rifle in hand.
Hardy thrust out from among the
police and raised his hands to Ti-owa-
kOnza in the peace sign. The head
chief called TO his fellows and turned
his back upon the agent with deliber-
ate contempt. All the others faced
