CATTLE DIPPING.
Pensacola Fla. june II. 1s1

Pensacola Fla, June IT. 1919.
Editor Pensacola Journal:
Dear Sir: The cattle dipping law
is the biggest piece of fooiishness ever
heard of and should be repealed as
soon as possible.
The ticks have always been, and
always will be. on the cattle and nave
never done them any harm. The flies
really do more harm than the ticks
and they don't do enough to amount
to anything.
1t is claimed that we cannor CA
port any cattle unless they are dipped.
Very Well, if we cannot, as we haven't
any to export and have to import in
stead.
Dipping has caused the death Of
several head of cattle that 1 know
of and it is so much trouble to drop
everything every two weeks and
waste day or half day dipping and
it several people to handle a bunch
of cattle. 1t don't leave us time 70
make a living at our other work 1t
is also a burden on the taxpayers to
ordinance. We see in this mornings
dipping watts
Something else: No one should be
allowed to vote on this question who
does not own stock, then it would
be voted down by almost 100 per cent
majority as the cattle owners are just
as disguised as they can be over this
law. 1t will be political oblivion TO
any politician to favor this law 1t is
killing the cattle industry as most
people would rather sacrifice the cat
tie they have at any price and quit
the business than go to the troulSs
of dipping. I hope to see this law
repealed at an early date.
Yours truly,
DAVE JOHNSON.

SANITARY ORDINANCE

Pensacola, Fla, June IT, 1919.
Editor Pensacola Journal:
We can't pick UP a. paper without
seeing something about the sanitary
a definite share Of the superb mileage
Journal that the county attorney and
the county physician were arrested
for violating the ordinance. l am glad
there has come a time when the city
commissioners are dealing with all
alike, and would like to call the COM
missioners' attention to the fact that
w. A. Shaw, of Lloyd, Wis, owns
three houses on o street, two on
Jackson, two on P. and one on the
corner of P and Gadsden streets, and
there is not a sanitary toilet at any
of them.
The commissioners will remember
that some time ago Mr.. Shaw had a
letter in the Pensacola Journal say
ing that he was in favor of the ordi-
nance and that he had instructed the
Fisher Real Estate Agency to have
them put in his houses at once.
1t has not been done yet and /
think something should be done out

MOSQUITO HUNGER.

It is stated by some authorities that it is
rather late in the season to take active, effec-
tive measures of prevention of the mosquito
nuisance. But those who were in Pensacola the
summer when the state took hand in Kidding
Pensacola of the mosquito menace, know that
much can be done, in spite of the fact that there
has already been so much neglect.
Dr. Cox, of the public health service, said yes
terday: 1T might be well to ask why the city
does not do something to their ponds and
marshes, which are mostly due to clogged up
bitches and filled in natural waterways. 1t
might also be well to ask why no action was
taken on the comprehensive drainage survey
which was made by the state sanitary engineer
On April 49, 1919, and was submitted to the city
commissioners through the city engineer"
The drainage problems in both the southeast
and southwest sections of the city are relatively
simple great relief from discomfort as well
as from actual danger from disease, could be
easily accomplished if the citizens in those areas
affected would demand in force that they be
given their just relief.
The public health service says: Now comes
The cry against the mosquito. Is it prompted by
discomfort or danger of disease, or both? 1t is
believed by many that the bite of any kind of
mosquito may cause malaria or other kind of
fever. The great majority of mosquitoes known
as the 'culex,' cause disease, so far as is
known. But there are two other main species
which are dangerous. The Ianopheles,' which
conveys malaria fever, and the 'stegomyia,
which carries yellow fever"
These facts should be borne in mind: Any
water which stands more than ten days in this
climate will breed mosquitoes. Wherever you
see "wigglers' in standing water, there you
know development of mosquitoes is going on.
Mosquitoes molesting a neighborhood are gen.
orally within radius of few hundred yards.
Catch basins, unclaimed and unoiled, are an
ideal mosquito breeding place. Tin cans, wash
tubs, rain barrels, unscreened cisterns, fountain
basins, and any collection of water, as mentioned
above, serve as place where the female mos
quito deposits eggs These, in the course of eight
to twelve days, become "wigglers," and then full
grown mosquitoes. Those who are suffering
from that hunger, can testify that the Hungry
Huns have nothing the stegomyia.

Millions In I'll

Millions In I'll
The indebtedness of the tax payers
of Florida has been increased enor-
mously by action of the late legis-
lature in passing special laws for al
most every county. authorizing the
ISSUANCE of time warrants by. the coun-
~ commissioners and school boards.
1t is stated that there is scarcely a
county but has had more or less of
this manner OF legislation. which is
but another method to secure money
from loans other than bonds. and not
permitting the tax payers to have any
voice in deciding whether such indebt-
edness should be incurred.
II bond issues had been attempted,
in many cases they would have been
defeated by the vote of the tax payer,
but by this method the money is ex-
tracted from his pocket without his
having any voice in the matter.
In other words ii is simply defea ting
the law relative to bond issues by
whipping the devil around the stump"
1t is a most beautiful and successful
plan to knock out the constitution

this way. 1 understand that there
is being a petition circulated out here
getting signers to kill the ordinance,
by a man who doesn't own place,
neither is he renting a place. Why
should he take so much stock in the
matter? Is it because he is boarding
at one of the Shaw places
Now. Mr.. commissioners, there
have been so many of US poor devils
already gone TO the expense of in
stalling the sanitary toilet, and as we
have complied with the ordinance,
make the big man do the same. He is
no better than we are, if he does
think so.
Respectfully,

1T PAYS TO ADVERTISE.

The current issue of the Gulf Marine Register
carries well displayed article Pensacola, Com
ing to the Front This article is illustrated with
three photographers, the Pensacola water front,
picture of the "Cushnoc," and one of the piers
of the G. F. & A. railroad.
The introduction to the article, which is main
ly based on an editorial expression in The Jour
nal, in relation to the Bruce Dry Dock Company;
says THE PORT OF PENSACOLA HAS THE
BEST NATURAL HARBOR ON THE GULF
1t has every advantage, INSOFAR AS NAT
URAL FACILITIES ARE CONCERNED AND
IS DUE TO STRIKE ITS STRIDE AND TAKE
ITS PLACE AMONG THE IMPORTANT PORTS
OF THE SOUTH. There was just one mistake
made in this article. The editor says "Com-
menting on the drawbacks of this port and the
remedies therefor, The Journal says" And then
comes the excerpt from The Journal editorial.
There was no comment in The Journal editorial
as to the drawbacks of this port The Journal
does not believe there any drawbacks. The
Journal believes have the greatest port in
this country, and that it's development is mat,
ter of months rather than years.
But The Journal would call attention to the
fact that in this same edition in which the edi-
torial from The Journal appeared, which extolled
the movement for drydock company here, there
we're TWO oLner aDIe ana longer articles, winch
also drew attention to the ports of Mobile and
New Orleans.
The Gulf Marine Register, of course, is pub
lished in New Orleans. And its able leading ar
ticle is by Mayor Behrman and tells how adver-
Using helped the port of New Orleans.
Mayor Behrman says:
ct was agreed that, through my office, an eff
fort would be made to raise by popular subscrip-
ton 100000 to insurer great display campaign
carried on over period of six months in the
leading and most influential magazines in Ameri-
ca.
THE campaign as outlined and carried out
was the most complete municipal campaign ever
launched in America. 1t consisted of five double
page spreads, graphically depicting the port and
industrial equipment of New Orleans and calling
the attention of investors and manufacturers to
our unequalled advantages through an eloquent
brief on New Orleans which formed part of each
advertisement. The Saturday Evening Post, the
Literary Digest, the Worlds Work, the Outlook,
the American Review of Reviews and System
were the mediums through which this city was
speaking to America.
'The advertisements were so constructed as
to appeal to large investors seeking factory or
warehouse sites, where waterfront was needed
and where proximity to raw materials was de-
sired. We all seemed to recognize that it was
important to appeal especially on this ground,
for we believed it our greatest talking point"
Pensacola has great opportunity, but it must
recognize that it pays to advertise.

1t has been charged that the Florida
legislature just closed was the most
unsatisfactory of any like body since
the state was redeemed from the rule
and despotisn1 of carpet bagism. The
comparison is unfortunate and the
charge is too grave to go unehalienged.
The 1919 legislature had on it's roll the
names of many of the states ablest
men who were serving their state with
the sole desire to be of benefit. and
they served at a financial loss to them
selves And while we admit that these
men were a minority. let US separate
them from the common herd who
either know or who are too grossly ig-
norant and selfish to respect the rights
of others 1t is unfortunate for the
state as a whole that the people must
stand sponsor for Ignorance and sell
'fishness because we are democracy
of the people, by the people and for
the people who are too careless or too
indifferent to winow out the shaft from
the fruitful grains. The citizen is given
the authority to select the law-mak-
ers as well as the men who swear that
they viii ienforce the laws faithfully
and impartially, while tn ejury deter
mines the guilt or innocense of the
accused. If the officer is negligent
of his duty and the juryman sympa-
thizes with the accused and refuses
to punish, government ceases to func-
ton and the courts are no longer

the humble as well a sthe rich can turn
with confidence that justice though
blind will carefully weigh the evidence
and meet out justice.-Apalachi
