Tallahassee Record: 1t is not like
ly that ever before in the history of
this country the executive of any state
in the Union has attempted to con-
troll judicial decisions by threat of the
use of the power of removal. Fer

ed down and inspired with some kind
of Divine Right, but he never dared
attempt to control the judges of Tex
as; Sulzer thought the common peo-
pie of New York had found in him a
second Saviour, but he knew that the
three coordinate branches of Govern
ment-the Legislative, Judicial and
EXecutive-mustb be kept separate and
distinct and that naught but despot-
ism and eventually anarchy can come
out of any effort on the part of the
executive to coerce the courts in their

Travelled constantly from Pensacola to

intermediate points as it was possible
for him to get. He is one Senator
who desires to keep in touch with
public sentiment in order that he can
SO far as possible carry out the

Trammell goes he tries to see as ma

whom he can reach and who desires
to talk with him. His work in this
line fits him for his REPRESENTA-

GERMANY'S
PERFIDY TO ITALY.

One of the most important battles
in the world war will soon be fought
out on Italian territory. While a
German victory in Italy would not
prevent a final victory for the allies,
it would naturally prolong the strug-
gle and make it harder for the United
States.
We trust Italy has vivid mental
picture of the foe it is fighting. In
fighting a foe it is always well to
get perfect picture of what kind Of
a ice he is.
The trickery of Germany is pretty
we'll known to the American people
by now. But there are still some who
wonder why Italy withdrew from the
triple alliance and fought the Teu-
tons, instead of lining up against
them.
The fact is Italian statesmen knew
long ago the two kaisers were con-
stantIy abusing the terms of the al
lance and making Italy pay the
freight Recently there has come to
light a glazing instance.
Italy declared war on Austria in
May, 1918. She did not declare war
on Germany until August, 1916. Ger
many ostensibly took no warlike part
against Italy. But early in June,
1915, Italian mine-sWeepcrs near an
Italian naval base in the Adriatic
found a barrier of u mines. They
cleared these away. A few days la
ter they found a similar barrier in
the same place. These could only
have been placed by a submarine, so
the Italians decided to set watch
for it.
Finally in March, 1916, an Italian
mine sank the hostile submarine IN
comparatively shoal waters and the
Italians decided to fish her up and
have look at her.
They found she was the U. G. IL,
built at the Weser yards by the Ger
man firm of Ditta- -Siemens- -Schuckert.
Its log revealed some interesting
facts.
Said the commander: "After trial
trip on the Weser, was towed through
the Kiel canal May, 1915. At Kiel
we loaded mines to be used in Italian
waters. After trials, sent in three
pieces by rail to Pola, arriving June
oath, 1915. Put together, eXchang-
ed German for Austrian flag"
The log also records that the ship
was employed in laying mines in ltal-
ian waters, carried rifles to an Afri-
can port for the rebels against Italy,
and cruised near Durazzo, seeking
Italian ships. The crew were all
German.
Germany at peace with us, plots to
have Mexico and Japan make war up
on US. Germany at peace with Italy,
sends German submarines to lay
mines in Italian waters.
And still there are some pro-Ger-
mans in this country who wonder why
the allies are determined to put an
end to Prussianism.
