SOJOURNER HAS
PLEASANT WORD
FOR MUSCOCEE
TELLS OF MILLS, SCHOOLS AND
PARKS, AND OTHER INTEREST
ING FEATURES OF NEAR BY
TOWN.

Failing to see any contributions from
Muscogee in the columns of The
Journal the writer, though only a So
journer, takes it for granted that a
few items from the place would not
be devoid of interest to its readers.
However. being a stranger within the
gates" these must be chiefly personal
impressions of the place. and the linn
ated number of acquaintances made
during brief stay. Lack of these,
however, is more than compensated by
the kindness and charming hospitality
of those already met.
Notwithstanding more than three
score and ten winters have passed
over my head, this is my first visit
TO the Land of Flowers" whose early
history is so closely associated with
that of our~own beautiful southland
Cessation from the prolonged dis
agreeable weather and heavy rains of
the past summer has at last given
place to several weeks of genial sun
shins- Muscogee today seems in
spired with new life, and once more,
after many days. the spirit of our
lovely Indian summer has come forth
from her hiding place to cheer and
bless Mother Earth from whom she
has so long Withdrawn her smile
1t goes without saying that beyond
the memory of the Oldest inhabitant
and the period of the old, upright
saw, Muscogee has lived moved and
had her being in timber, logs and Saw
mills, and TO one unaccustomed to the
sight, the Southern States log busi-
ness seems colossal and rightly de-
serves to be. spelled with a hie ss2 =
The mills at this point, four in num-
Der, and built right on the bank OF
the Perdido river, twenty miles from
Pensacola by rail, and sites including
the quarters which house the en-
p1oyees, white and colored, extend UP
stream for a distance of more than
two miles TO the deep water railroad
depot, where the large company store.
offices, postoffice and other buildings
connected with the mill are located.
Outside of these are numerous shops.
boarding houses. butcher shops and
restaurants which supply the daily
needs of the employees and their
families. All are said to be owned
and controlled by the Southern States
Lumber Company. and although loca-
ted along the river swamp and sub
ject to overflow, are sair TO be com

malariaI complaints. The residential
portion includes many nicely built, well
shaded little homes. three churches

is a large artistically built brick
structure and has the reputation of
being one of the best in the State of
Florida. Muscogee, though only
few miles distant from Pensacola and
several other seaport towns, seems
(outwardly, at least,) singularly free
from the fads, frivolities, follies and
vices common to such places. For
while a pandemonian of noises from
many steam engines and whistles is
almost unbearable from 4 to in the
morning, when the works shut down
the sudden cessation of noises makes
one feel almost giddy. When this hour
comes sorry man gets a move on his
self and eager TO seek his own home.
After the early supper Muscogee
grows profoundly. quiet, with nothing
to break it but the merry laugh of
children playing in the street High
cost of living, low priced cotton, boil
weevir and other changed conditions
are bringing many newcomers to
Florida
Among these may be mentioned S. f.
and S. G. Weatherford, from south
east Alabama. Both have been life
long farmers, and both have cast their
bot in Florida with the intention of
making their home here, The latter
has already purchased a small farm
within few miles of Muscogee, and
has already taken steps to start n
truck farm and hopes in the near
future to claim a fair share of the
patronage of the people in Muscogee
and vicinity. Both gentlemen express
themselves well pleased with Florida
as a farming country.
The advent of pleasant weather has
been bringing a number of visitors
to Muscogee Among them are Miss
Pearl Gfvens, of Pensacola, who is
spending today with her mother. Mrs.
Cole. . Miss Fannie Weatherford and
sister Picnic spent yesterday as the
guests Of their aunt, Mrs. G. A. An

friends here last Wednesday. Mr..

panied by their son, Arthur, on their
return trip from Gonzalez to their
home in Alabama, made stay of sew

The Pensacola Journal,

Gentlemen: The governor of the
state has been bitterly censured for
nepotism, on account of appointing
four of his family TO office. II Is
strange that this apears so black and
dark in this case, while all the cabinet
officers of the state do the some thing,
with the exception of Messrs Swear
ingen and McRae. whose children are
too small to be put into office.
Mr.. Crawford, secretary OF state,
had his son in office on a good salary
until he went to war, and he has his
daughter in his office now. Mr..
Luning, state treasurer, has his
son in his office. Mr.. Sheats, superin-
tendent of public instruction, has his
daughter in his office, and had his
son until he became too i'll TO work.
and Mr. Amos. comptroller, has his
father and his wife in his office.
Nothing is said about those others,
and the governor is made the scape-
goat for everything. The Fort Pierce
paper, lately said that the governor
was running a blind tiger in the cap
itol, when, in fact, a negro Janitor
had booze in the furnace, and the gov
ernor has nothing whatever TO do with
the care Of the capitol or management
of il, but Mr.. Crawford, secretary OF
state, has entire charge. The governor
was also blamed when Mr.. Boone mis-
managed the boys Industrial school
when he had worked as hard as any
man for two years TO get another
man in his place, and I do not care
to bear the blame for everything.
Please give this all publicity possi-
bic, as ] back what l have said here
and can prove every word OF II.
Yours very truly,
SIDNEY J. CATS,
Governor.

THE DAYS OF RECONSTRUCTION.

There is a great hue and cry all the country
and every hand hear of strikes and disturb
ances of every kind. But those who have lived
through other view these things with greater
equanimty than do the members of the younger
generation
In commenting the present situation, Golfers
says, editorially:
A woman who has seen many decades of
American life passed her early and i'm
questionable in the Civil
war and the period that followed after it. She \
says that we of this generation realize
the bitterness and sadness of those days. Her
father and his friends struggling as best they
sort said over and that things could never
be as they had been, and that life could
be happy again.
Now, she says, when she picks up newspaper
and reads of catastrophes and wrangles and
strikes and high prices, she does not feel the
same hopelessness that younger people may feel.
She has been there before. 1t is worth while
in these days to consult persons of her age and
experience. Not always safely
that everything runs in regular cycles and that
rainy today is Invariably followed by a sunny
tomorrow. But ventures more useful
now than they have been. Talk them
sometimes when your horizon looks stormy.

fulness to you.

PROCESS or ELIMINATION.

But. be it said their credit. fight for the

who have refused to drag issue so broad through

Former President Taft is leading the fight in
that party. And there many who follow his
views, in spite of the charge made by Senator
Johnson that Taft is respected but not followed.
No more popular president than Taft occupied

Roosevelt, and both of these favored the league

politically but the influence of both Republican

A FEATHER FOR MOBILE

The docking OF the Cushnoc in Mobile bv the
Alabama Shipbuildng and Dry Dock Company is
commented on by the Mobile Register as follows:
a large white feather in Mobiles cap is a
suitable decoration in honor OF the docking here
OF $500 ton dead weight Steamship by the
Alabama Shipbuilding and Dry Dock COMPANY
The possession OF a dry dock capable of lifting
such a great vessel is something to be proud
of; and IL Is said that the dock has a reserve
power of much 5000 tons In excess OF
what was called into this occasion. The
