A good deal has been done in the past
Recently the legislature of South Carolina
appropriated $4,000 for the State Agricul-
tural and Mechanical college at Orange
burg. Louisiana has appropriated $4,000
for building for the State School for
Colored Youths to meet the $4,000 offered
by the general educational board. County
school boards are now paying the larger part
OF the Jeanes teachers salaries throughout
the south, and the superintendent of public
instruction of North Carolina says that soon
there will be good high school for colored
boys and girls in every county in the south.
There fourteen county normal schools
for training of colored teachers in North
Carolina. Last year there were fifty -four
of these advanced schools in the south; this
year there seventy-three giving tenth
grade education to colored boys and girls.
This steady increase in educational facilities
opeful for the colored people, for the south an

FOR FURTHER ADVANCEMENT.

A high density cotton compress for Pensacola IL
the present goal number Of the principal bust
the city back of the movement. there can
be doubt to the ultimate outcome OF the cam
paign instituted yesterday.
The company will organize with capital OF $780,
900 and already this amount is rapidly being raised
The business who gave themselves so unre-
servedly to the winning of the world war, through
cooperation along patriotic lines, combin-
ing put through one of the most important bust
ventures contemplated in West Florida ana
one which will be OF tremendous value not only to
this city but to the back country. which in large
measure will furnish the cotton for export.
At the time OF the entrance of the United States
into world the cotton business in this Sec
in a flourishing condition. and planters and
cotton merchants were reaping the benefits. Then
the necessity of conserving space in order to
shipping problems and the consequent ruling
that all cotton bales must be compressed in high
riers At the ports which had such facilities
benefited and the bottom dropped of the cotton
business in those cities which modern
n their equipment.
Pensacola is reaching for world trade. We

Of this trade. Pensacola is putting in a fuel
oil station to induce more shipping to this port
Pensacola has just gone after shipping line.
Pensacola has gone out after great floating dry
dock. And now Pensacola is going out after a new
density cotton compress. And will get 1t.
A few months ago of the most prominent
business in the city, and who the first
wooden vessel launched at this port, and who
been for years closely in touch with local condi-
tions, said:
! well recall that when the San
Carlos Hotel was erected here it seemed
tremendous enterprise and 1t doubted
IL this city could finance such proposition.
Yet during the past few years Pensacola
and West Florida have raised amounts
which have made the Of money raised
~ at that time small in comparison.
And 1t must be remembered that Pensacola not
only raised that money. 1t has that money put
out at good interest, guarantee of commercial in
tegrity And today bank in the city has de-
posts far in of any other period in it's his
tory
Pensacola will go out and get the money to fl
nance the high density cotton compress. and then
when that is completed it will out for other and
greater business Ventures.
No investment could be of greater moment at
this time. and question 20 tho ultimate
cess of the campaign possibly be advanced.

OUR CENTENNIAL.

The fact that Tampa Jacksonville, Miami anu
Key West are all the race against Pensacola ana
each other the centennial should but emphasize
the fact that no other city in Florida can back up
a.. claim, 10 the centennial as Pensacola can. M q
The fact that these cities larger than Pen
sacola really has very little bearing on the matter
for each cities through the columns OF the
daily press again and again declared tna' 'nes
are unable each winter care for the tourist trade
which flocks to South Florida
II ia apparent to anyone at all familiar with
Florida that whatever city is selected for the CEN
tennal will have to the housing problem under
consideration through special fund, to be raised
partly through and partly through local SUP
scrpton-so every city In the state iace' p'
cally conditions
while Pensacola is smaller than the other cities
its tourist trade is not enormous. and for that
the housing problem here VIII nardy De more
difficult OF solution than In other city.
Mr. Edmundson of the Manufacturers Record
who is with conditions in Florida, recently
declared city in the state has anywhere near
adequate facilities for taking care or the enormous
crowds which brought to this state through
the centennial But city in the state would at
tempt o for the crowds with the present Ia
cilitieseven Jacksonvlles offer of the state fair
building would not settle question of the fair
at ALL from the standpoint Of centennial site
fair as is contemplated would necessitate
Pensacola could probably afford to finance the
project as adequately any other city In the state
for Pensacola is contemplating some OF the very
improvements
cess OF the centennial, which improvements would
covered by local capital, but would add value to
this city site.
Pensacola logically the site for such cele-
bration. Jacksonville is named after the great
American general to whom more than to any other
United States indebted for the acquisition Of
Florida, but Pensacola the very scene of the
Incidents which made this acquisition possible.
On tenth OF May, 1915 Jackson began his
of West Florida crossing the Apalachicola
river the Indian village of Ochesee. His march
westward brought him to the Escambia river, and
the province of West Florida. the old trail
which he had opened in 1914. when he marched to
Pensacola a similar mission.
Don Jose Masot then Spanish governor of
Florida and he sent to Jackson a written protest
against invasion and then took refuge in Fort San
Carlos.
This old fort Is still standing. 1t here in
Pensacola that jackson assumed authority of con-
shutting provisional government. appointing
of his officers. Colonel King. civil military gov
ernor. And II here that the concluding for
States consummated. ~
Pensacola. the capital of British well as
Spanish Florida, and for a number Of years under
the French regime. would surpass any city the
state In historic background. But actual
scene OF the ceding or the Spanish possession of
this continent to the United States claims
centennial cannot be invalidated. &c

TO AVOID TRAGEDY.

The deplorabe accident of yesterday afternoon,
when a small negro child was killed by automo-
bile Gonzalez street, might have been avoided,
perhaps. had both parents and motorist been more
careful.
While it is true that number OF accidents have
occurred in THO city in the past few months which
might possibly have been avoided. it is fact that
children allowed to play carelessy about the
streets without supervision Of any kind.
Recently the life of very small child saved
through the quick wit and strong of a street
conductor. the little having out directly
in front of moving street car which stopped
Just In time to the baby's life happened
that the brakes of the in good running

Automobile drivers cannot be too careful in
ming their through the business residential
parts of the city. II is not enough sound the
warning note-frequently the sound of siren

1t is time that all. those who drive cars and
those who have the of children aged
take greater precautions. for only way win
