there is no such thing as standing sin;

they are too misery to spend a dollar

WILL AID EVERY SECTION.

In Just what way would the develop
ment of Escambia county roads help
the farmers? One way is that it
would make it easier for the farmer to
| transport his crops. But another thing
is that it would make farming cheaper.
The Ship by Truck movement is gain
ing in rural districts all over the
United States. This movement, more
than any other one thing, will aid in
keeping down freight rates, directly
and indirectly.
Besides this, the development of the
roads of the. county means that the
farm and the town interests would be
more closely connected.
No man in the world is more inter-
ested in education than is the farmer,
who desires advantages for his chill
dren, and who, with the present COM
pulsory laws, must give those children
an education, at what ever cost of
convenience. The development of good
roads in EScambia county means that
the children of the county will be bet
ter enabled to attend school, and will
do so more conveniently. Improved
farm machinery will also follow road
development, for such has been the
case in every county which has voted
for good roads.
The reason is easily seen with good
roads connecting the farms much ma
chinery can be used comparatively.
Escambia county has some of the
finest farming land in the United
States. All that is needed to develop
this county into a great agricultural
county is capital. When capital is
induced to come to Pensacola, it will
mean that these men, under the direc-
ton of the various organized bodies.
such as the Fair Association directors,
the Farmers Cooperative Associations.
and the Chamber of Commerce, will be
made acquainted with the agricultural
possibilities of this county, making au-
tomobiIe trips over the roads. In other
parts OF Florida capitalists are max
ing large investments along agricul-
tural Lies. There is certainly no rea-
son to believe that they will not do
the same in this county, where the
farming products surpass those of any
other section of the state, according TO
the rating at the State Fair.
In looking over the situation and
analyzing it carefully, there can he

that beautiful face, that wonderful
figure in close companionship with my
husband.
I remembered her appearance on the
train. She was absolutely one of the
most stunning creatures 1 had ever
seen in my life. If I read her rightly
too, life had hardened her a trifle, had
chilled whatever generous impulses she
might have possessed, had left her
perfectly poised, ready to meet any
emergencies or to take any chance.
That she had the trick of being per-
feotly able to conceal all knowledge of
admiration directed toward herself,
while at the same time being aware
of it and relishing it, 1 knew by my
observation of her demeanor on the
Marvin train.
Suppose she should fall in love with
Dicky! To my mind did not see how
any woman could help it. Would she
have any scruples about endearvoring
to win Dicky's love from me?.
My common sense told me that this
was the veriest nonsense. But I could
no more help my feelings than L could
control the shape of my nose.
The ring of the telephone bell put
temporary end to my speculatiOns. I
pulled myself together in order to talk
calmly to Dicky, for I knew it must be
he who was calling.

NO MATCHES FOR
SPANISH SMOKERS

Lisbon, Sept. 10.-Matches have dis
appeared from the market, much to
the discomfort of smokers and house
wives. Walters and cigar store clerks
who are able to furnish a few matches
have, been extremely popular for two
weeks.
In view of the high prices here, the
operatives of the Match Company de-
mand higher wages, and the company
to meet their wishes petitioned the
government for permission to raise the
price of matches. This consent has
not been given and in view of the
deadlock the inhabitants of. Portugal
have had no matches for about a fort
night, since the stocks in the shops
were exhausted.
When the monopoly of match man
ufacture was given to the company
some years ago, the public, specially
smokers, as a sign Of protest began
to use automatic flint and gasoline
lighters, which caused a considerable
decrease to the company's sale and
the government at the company's re-
quest issued a law forbidding their
USE in consequence of which they

The Georgia Primary.

| The Georgia Primary.
| The campaign in Georgia, one OF the
warmest ever seen in a state noted for
hot campaigns-has come to a close;
the primary will answer the question,
Can Tom Hardwick be beaten for
governor and Tom Watson be beaten
for United States SENATOR" Both men
has been bitterly arraigned, because of
! their record during the war, and they
have been fought by the supporters
of President Wilson's administration,
as well as by the present state admin
istration in Georgia.
Yet, their defeat, is a matter Of OK
treme doubt. Hardwick, to an out
slider looks like a winner. Any man
who addresses enormous crowds where
ever he speaks, who faces audiences of
from 1000 to 5000 persons at every
speaking place is leading some sort
of a popular movement. His oppo-
nents have every reason to believe
that he is a dangerous candidate.
Watson, on the surface. does not ap-
pear to have as good chance to
win his race for the Senate as Hard
wick does in the contest for governor.
Yet. of the three candidates, Watson,
Hoke Smith and Governor Dorsey, the
old time populist seems to have the
edge. He has always been a factor
in Georgia politics and now when he is
making what maybe his own final race
for office-for Watson is now an old
man-his enemies are hard put to stop
him.
The direct vote in STs primary may
or may not settle eacI. or these con-
tests. If any candidate Should receive
a majority of the votes, he will be de-
clared an immediate winner and the
subsequent proceedings will interest
him no more. But in Georgia the con-
vention system yet remains and at
times it is more powerful than the pri
ruary. They vote on a county unit
plan in the convention, that is, each
county has delegates in the convention
appcrtiohed to it according to popu-
latioa. If in his race for governor
Hardwick should have a plurality, he
will have to make an additional fight
against his two principal opponents,
Holder and Walker. 1t is entirely
possible that these two candidates
would combine to beat Hardwick
should he be forced into a convention
fight, and Watson in the convention
may have TO face the combination of
Hoke Smith and Hugh Dorsey.-Mont-
gomery Advertiser.

The manner in which power farming
is taking hold with the people is en-
couraging. 1t appeals to those who
want to be better farmers, who want
to provide their families, their wives
and their boys and girls with the la
bor-saving devices that really tighten
the burden of farm and farm home
work and that counts for reliability
and efficiency in these days of ad-
vancement and to very large extent
overcomes the seriousness of human
labor shortage. Times Union.
That is the truth, and a very i'm
portant truth. OF all states, Florida
has most to gain by the extensive
use of power driven farm machinery.
With level, easily titled fields, there is
no reason why Florida should not take
a high rank in the production of
standard crops, along with the spe-
cialties which have already made her
famous.-Lakeland Telegram.
