PRO-GERMAN THREAT.

Speaking before the twenty ninth annual con-
vention of the Liquor Dealers Protective Associ-
alton of New Jersey, as quoted in The Cham
pion of Fair Play, M. F. Farley, chairman of
the congressional committee of the National Re-
tail Liquor Dealers Association said:
This is not funeral party and don't you
gentlemen think for moment it is The order
against the manufacture of beer December will
never be enforced. If the government will not
let the brewers make beer, the government will
pc forced by the great multitude of beer drink
ers to make beer itself
1t is all in President Wilson's hands and he
can be counted on to do the right thing bv the
people No more is there danger of the entire
liquor supply being cut off for war needs on
July l. We will have driven the Hun to cover bv
that time and the need will be over.
The provision that the Prohibition shall ex
tend until the army shall be demobilized will
never pass, and if it should our boys will be
back before that time to make the government
supply them
The American Issue, commenting on the out
burst says
IS the declaration "the order prohibiting the
manufacture of beer after December will never
be enforced threat or wish? Every patriot
Will resent the insult to the boys lover there
That is constantly being reiterated by booze adj
vocates, implied in the statement that these
boys after they have cleaned up the Huns will
come back to their homeland and rise in mass
to re-establish the brewers who helped finance a.,
organization in this country whose chief pur-
pose was to spread pro-German propaganda
throughout the states.

WORTH TRYING.

The Orlando Reporter-Star, speaking editori-
ally, calls attention to the fact that during the
yellow fever epidemic in Cuba, the health au-
thorities found one of the most effective ways
of combating that scourge was in disinfecting
the streets with carbolic acid solution, and
suggests that now that the epidemic of Spanish
influenza is raging the country over it behooves
US to take every precaution possible to prevent
it's spread.
The Reporter-Star says:
Our schools and churches have already been
closed and various other measures adopted to
stamp out the plague, yet we think the example
set by the United States authorities in Cuba
would be wise one to follow.
Carbolic acid is one of the best known disin-
fectants, few buckets full in the street
sprinkler would do the work most effectively.
There would be rather unpleasant odor about
town for few days to be sure, but odors will
kill no one, but the Flu" is no respecter of
persons.
An ounce of prevention is worth pound of
cure. We offer this suggestion to the city board
of health for what it is worth.
wherever the influence is prevalent. Certainly it
can do no HARM and would place the city, which
is now far from sanitary, in a much better con-
dition, not only through the efficacy of the dis
but through the general cleanup that
the work would induce.

A COMMON CAUSE

One of the wonderful things that has come out
of this war is the notification of effort, the CO.
operation of men and women of every faith and
of every walk of life, who meeting on the COM
mon ground of service, are carrying forward the
banner of Liberty in the last great fight against
despotism.
That the fight that is being waged today is
not being fought only in the trench and on the
battlefield all thinking men know.
The Y. M. C. A., the men of the Jewish faith,
who have given themselves to war work, the
Knights of Columbus, with their ministry of SER
vice-all meet on the ground of service to man
kind and all are fighting for the liberties of the
world, as surely as the men who are beating back
the Huns in the great charge that will eventually
save the world from depotism.

NECESSARY VIGILANCE

With the influenza situation now in hand, the
first duty which lies before every citizen is to do
a part towards keeping the disease under con-
troll.
Public places will not re-opened at present
with the consent of the public authorities. This
is the announcement made by the physicians of
the Public Health Service the city health officer
and the Emergency Relief committee, and it is
safe to say that the Pensacola public will abide
by this decision.
The epidemic in Pensacola has been controlled
out it has not been yet stamped out. The relax
ing of effort towards suppression of the disease
IS most dangerous, as the greatest number of
deaths reported are from relapses.
Physicians stated yesterday that the influenza
leaves the patient very weak, and peculiarly un-
fitted for any strenuous exertion of any kind and
makes the possibility of re-infection much
greater.
For this reason, vigilance should be unremit-
ting, and care should be taken that the disease
does not again become prevalent
Pensacola has been most fortunate in the
prompt action which was taken here, in closing
all public places and in the organized effort
which has made it possible to cope with the situa-
ton.
This work has received public communication
ana support, which must be continued, if the cpl
demic is to become thing of the past.

OVER THE TOP.


No feature Of the Fourth Liberty Loan cam
paign has received greater need of praise than
the work Of the Escambia County Woman's Lib
erty Loan Committee, which exceeded it's quota
Of $500 100000 by more than one hundred thou
sand dollars worth of subscriptions to the gov
eminent issue.
The work of this committee was accomplished
in practically four days, was that of the
mems committee, and was another evidence of
that fine spirit which has put the women of
Pensacola and Escambia county forward in all
patriotic work since the entrance of the United
States into the world war.
Pensacola women have led in all movements
lis significant of the splendid showing made by
the women in the drive, that those who helped
Ito put the loan through all interested in Red
lCross work and allied activities.
These women, few in number, not only
worked faithfully, but they showed a remarkable
degree of business acumen and executive ability.
Most of them were housekeeping women, un-
trained in business methods which only DEM
onstrates once more than which has ben so often
demonstrated since the opening of hostilities,
that woman's place in the home in nowise units
her for public service-on the contrary the good
housewife is the better trained for public serv-
ice of any kind
The organized work of the Escambia County
Woman's Liberty Loan Committee did much
to aid in putting the Fourth Loan over the top
and Pensacola has reason to be proud of it's ac-
complshment-and is.

Spoke naught like thine;

On each proud swelling
OF the bellfry, knelling
It's bold notes free,
Made the bells of Shandon
Sound far more grand on

Their thunder rolling
From the Vatican.

Singing uproarious
In the gorgeous turrets
