The little god Of love is noted for
his capricious oaperings, but when he
robbed cheyenne Harry Henderson OF
his faithful six-snooter, 1t really
amounted to a catastrophe--almost.
Cheyenne Harry lived on the dividing
line between Yucca and Pmkerton
Counties. Arizona. He had the most
uifing and treacherous bunch OF cat
lie rustlers in the west lined up against
him and stealing his cattle so frequent,
In that Cheyenne grew desterate. The
sheriff Of his own county was in
"oahoots" with the raiders-an appeal
to him was a waste Of valuable breath.
A plea to the sheriff of the neighbor-
ing county developed that his authority
stopped at the county line.
And on top of this deplorable state
ot affairs. Cheyenne Harry Henderson
fell in love with the daughter of Pin
Eerton County's sheriff. and feminine
like she asked Cheyenne TO give up the
one thing that bore a semblanee of law
ana protection-his six shooter.
But for love. Cheyenne became a
man Of peace. and apparently all the
fiery flames Of Hades couldn't change
him. Cattle rustling went on under his
nose. A band Of white-cappers tried
to capture him, the sheriff of Yucca
County tried to fran him and shoot
him. Still, Cheyenne held tenaciously
to his promise, much TO the wonder of
his own men, whose trigger fingers
itched for shot at cheyenne's
enemies.
But something had TO happen to put
gun back in Cheyenne's hand and
start him hell-bent for his enemies
with a yell that was dustin loose from
peace." Learn what it was, by seeing

NECESSITY OF CO Operation.

Commenting on the fact that two
cases Of bubo have been discovered
in Pensacola and one at Galveston,
the Tampa Times urges upon the state
the necessity Of cooperation. and
says:
The situation calls for the adoption
of strict sanitary measures there is
no occasion for alarm or panic. Med
ical science has made wonderful ad-
vance in the last fifty years. 1t has
eliminated yellow fever, that long,
time scourge OF the tropics; has iden-
titled the mosquito as the breeder of
malaria, and the fly as the carrier of
typhoid and instigated campaigns for
their determination; it tells us now
of the agency Of rats and mice In the
spreading OF the dreaded plague, and
that our safety can only be secured
by their determination. Already the
cities in the danger zone are taking
precautions against the rat, and have
declared war against him. They carry
the disease, and infesting the cargo
ships as they nearly always do, they
spread the germs from one country
to another. Every seaport in this
country should make it impossible
for rats to escape from foreign or
coast wise ships It would be well too,
If the campaign against rats and mice
should be made nationwide, for they
are great destroyers of human food
supplies.
No country in the world has ever
SO much medical science
as has the United States in the past
decade.
1t took the Public Health service
of the United States to clean up Cuba.
1T took the same service to clean up
Panama. And It took the same service
to clean up Serbia, though the man
who was responsible for the wonderful
medical work in that fever infested
country, gave his life in service. Now
the United States Public Health SER
vice is going to clean up this country
and rid it of the rats that have been
brought here from the far east.
So far the bubonic plague has taken
no foothold in this country. In all
the six years that there has been
bubonic plague in New Orleans. there
have been but forty-six deaths. Per-
haps no smaller percentage has never
been chronicled in the records of any
disease.

Good Roads are
A Necessity

Older citizens looking backward will
smile when they think of the roads,
or so called roads, that prevailed in
west Florida, Escambia county and
Pensacola some years ago, and COM
pairing the present roads with them, in
the minds eye, the comparison is as
the old OK cart to the modern pull
man.
Those older citizens can remember
when it took all two oxens or mules
could do to pull five hundred pounds
through the sand roads of their youth !;
and a pair of extra good mules could
pull seven hundred and fifty pounds;
and when a thousand pounds were
pulled. it was a topic for earnest dis
cussion. Those same citizens, or at
least a good many of them, when a
bond issue was discussed for the pur-
pose OF improving the roads. held up
their hands in horror at what they
deemed an enormous amount of money
lit would require to build them. and
how in the world those bonds would
be sold and still more wonder how
the bonds would ever be paid or re-
deemed.
Progress, however, while it may be
halted, is never totally stopped, and
bond issues prevailed. Roads were
improved. more roads were made, travel
became easier. more comfortable and
more enjoyable. Five hundred pounds
loads gave way to seven hundred and
fifty gave way to one thousand. and
now the capacity of the axle is the
limit, and yet we have but barely
begun on roads. Life has been made
worth the living. the pessimists OF that
day are the optimists of this day. II
has been found that bonds for public
improvement are not a luxury. but a
necessity, of which the rich man gets
his share. and the poor man the larger

WILD LIFE LEAGUE

The Florida Wild Life League has
been organized at Fort Myers for the
purpose of conserving birds and ami
mails. The movement started in Lee
county and spread to every section of
the state ii is planned to organize
similar leagues in every county in
Florida.
This is splendid movement and one
that should get behind the movement
and promote it in every possible way.
In West Florida the hunting is par
ticularly good. In the forests of this
section wild life abounds Squirrels,
rabbits. bear, deer, wild turkey, quail,
duck and teal. doves and other birds
and animals furnish good hunting.
One of the greatest attractions to
winter visitors is the sport this sec
ton affords. 1t is the interest of all
good sportsmen that the game laws be
enforced. The organization proposed
will afford protection and thus in
crease the pleasure OF the sport.
/ In this connection IL would be well
for those interested in the organiza-
ton of such a league in Pensacola and
Escambia county. to also give atten-
ton to the necessity of a good hunt

sportsmen of Pensacola know both

WHY HARDING WAS NOMINATED.

The New York World calls Harding
a puppet candidate. "A more respect
able figurehead than Warren G. Hard
| ing has never been nominated for
president of the United States by
either party" Neither does the World
believe that Harding is at all qualified
to grapple with the nations prob
lens. The World says:
Senator Harding is the perfect
flower of Old Guard politics. He is an
Ohio country politician with the mind
Iof an Ohio country politician. and he
sees the world through the eyes of an
Ohio country politician. Being weak
and colorless and mediocre, he ap-
ipealed powerfully to the managing poll
Iiticians who control the republican
organization, most of whom are sena-
tors themselves. They know Harding.
and they know that he will be faith
full agent of the organization. They
have worked with him. and they can
prove that he never had an original
Idea or entertained a thought that was
outside the routine of a well-trained
and well-disciplined party servant.
.The republican platform adopted at
Chicago is perhaps the best index to
the Harding mind. Whoever is curl
Gus to know the mental processes o.
the republican candidate has only to
read that platform. Those are the very
terms and phrases in which Senator
Harding thinks and in which he ex-
presses himself.
"Of all the candidates whose names
were presented to the Chicago con-
vention or who were within the range
of the conventions choice. Harding.
with the exception of Johnson and
Poindexter. fell the furthest short of
measuring up to the requirements Of a
president in this critical time. Lowden
and Wood were eliminated by their
campaign fund scandals. but with
Hoover and Hughes and Taft and
Knox and even Coolidge and Sproul
and Butler to select from, what more
pitiful choice could have been made.
in view Of the colossal questions with
which the next president OF the United
States must deal?
Senator Harding was nominated
because the Old Guard republicans
want a president to whom they can
give orders-a president who will take
orders. Accordingly they present their
puppet candidate in the person of
Warren G. Harding. of Ohio"

as this helps West Florida with every
good sportsman.
But unless the game laws are en-

movement that tends to their protec-

that the Florida Wild Life League will
increase in numbers and influence.

Press Comment
The State Press Meeting.

The State Press Meeting.
The annual meeting of the Florida
State Press Association comes to an
end today. 1t has been an important
and an interesting meeting. attended
by perhaps more real editors and pub
fishers of the state than any prior
meeting in years.
The hospitality of Pensacola has not
been near stretched to the breaking
point, although the city issued orders
months ago, Leave your pocketbooks
at home, The San Carlos hotel, one
of the most magnificent in the western
part of the state, was host to the edi-
tors and their wives. accommodation
for the entire stay in Pensacola being
complimentary. The papers of Pensa-
cola, well known for their liberality
of spirit and cordiality of feeling,
made the visitors feel thoroughly at
home.
There was important work before the
association, for it is not all play that
they do in these meetings. The asso-
citation has long been imbued with the
idea that Florida will sooner or later
become print paper manufacturing
state, and naturally is active in urging
this times approach and in helping to
make the erection of the first mill pos
sible. The supply Of raw material is
undoubtedly at hand if we but knew 1t,
and the experiment and research going
on will soon uncover the secret to our
advantage to stage Of independence
OF any foreign supply source.
The school for printers at Monte
Verde is also, undoubtedly. enc of the
wards of this association. 1t takes
undoubted interest in the school. for
out of it will come in the early years
the supply Of printers which we will
need as the business in each shop
grows beyond the possibility of sup
ply at the present rate of making
printers the old way.
The coming of the National Edito-
rial Association to Florida next year
will add stimulus to the association
spirit of the state, especially the jour-
nalistic brethren. The state will make
the National Editorial Associations
visit to Florida memorable, and the
State Press Association will make it
enjoyable. There will be great meet
ings held in the large cities in each
part of the state, and to these will be
invited the editors and people of all the
rest of Florida. We do not know
when it is proposed to have them in
Tampa, but the winter season, and
especially the date of the South Flor
ida Fair. would afford an opportunity
for this state to show off itself to the
editors of the entire United States in
a manner unexcelled by any other.
We have no doubt but the 1920 State
Press Association meeting in Pensacola
will go down as the most important
and most pleasant that has been held.
