RAT PROBING MUST
BE COMPLETED HERE
Property Owners Who Are Delaying
Ordered to Act at Once.

Two infected rats were caught yes
terday, one on w. Government-st, and
one on Tarragona-s st. This means that
while there is no occasion for alarm,
and the plague situation in Pensacola
is being handled most satisfactorily,
danger still exists and will exist, as
long as there is an infected rat in
the city.
1T was stated yesterday by one of
the physicians who has been closely
associated with the work OF santa
ton here that a number of persons
are under the impression that the
plague has been stamped out in Pen
sacola. This" said he, "is not the
case. AS long as there is an infected
rat in this city there will be danger
of the disease spreading to humans.
and there will will be need of every
precautionary measure that can be
employed"
I'VE understand that there are sew
eral persons who have been notified
to rat proof their building, who have
not yet taken steps to that end, and
the reasons they give for this is that
they believe that the plague will soon
be eliminated"
AS matter of fact. no city which
has ever been visited by the bubonic
plague. has been able to eliminate it
within less time than three-year
period. The appearance of two in
fected rats in Pensacola yesterday
proves conclusively that the danger
Of infection still exists in Pensacola.

URGE MINUTE MEN,

New York World Says Soapbox BoIshe-
visits Should Be combatted.

Washington, Aug. IA call to the
country for new minute men" in the

fine work done by the Four Minute
Men during the war impetus should
be given movement to provide such
, volunteer patriots in discussing the
gravest of the domestic problems that
now confront the people of the United
States, the problem of an unrest that
cannot be ignored. a radicalism fed
from many sources" recently appeared
in the Evening World New York
The article in question urges the
organization first of such Minute Men
and then arrangements for addresses
by them in all sections and ion all pos
sible occasions which shall be con
structive -. in the sense of seeking
by direct means to counterfeit the eff
feet upon mems minds of constant
sinister suggestions that they can get
what they are struggling for only by
smashing things" The article con-
tinues:
For every agitator who mounts a
soapbox to attack the government and
the laws of the United States there
should be another speaker on another
soapbox explaining why the working
mans best guarantee of getting his
due without destroying the source of
| the hoped-for benefits is still the Con-
stitution of these same United States"
Harmonizing with this suggestion of
the Evening World, is a -Four Min

closing paragraph says, in part:
| I'VE come to plead for help for the
American Legion; for the soldiers
who have upheld all of these princi-

who stood in the trenches under the
rain of molten iron or breasted the
storm of modern gun fire. They saved
the day. They fought while we work

Strictly for Wilson

The Democratic state cOnVen-
ton yesterday named four dele
gates at large to the Democratic
national convention at San Fran
cisco, adopted a rule requiring
the delegation to vote as a unit,
but gave it no other Instructions
as to candidates, but instructed
to work for a plank in the plat
form indorsing the adminiStra-
ton of President Wilson, his
work in the war, the peace treaty
and the league of nations.
The delegates-at-large are
Senator'S John Sharp Williams
and Pat Harrison, Congressman
Ben. G. Humphreys and John r.
Tally. Oscar G. johnson was
chosen as committeeman and r.
H. Henry and Henry Miller as
presidential electors-at large.
The convention adopted a res
oIution condemning the sRepubli-
can Senate and party for its
frank partisanship ia attempting
to Dullify the league of nations
and also adopted another resO-
luton condemning those in pub
lie life who pretend to be Demo
Gratis, who before. during and
since the war have not only re-
fused to cooperate with their
party associates. bat have, joined
hands with the enemies of the
government and partisan Repub-
cans in doing everything in their
power to harass and embarass
the Democratic ADMINISTRATION. ("
Without doubt the convention
was the greatest and most
enthusiastic within 40 years.
The gathering was replete with
dramatic and somewhat tense
incidents and moments, but it
was evident from the first that
the pro- Wilson, pronational ad-
ministration, proleague of ma
tons sentiment or conviction was
in the majority. There was what
might be called a steam roller
process, but the machinery was
handled automatically. though
effectively.
The Lee County delegation
headed by George 7. Mitchell
and that from Noxubee by Hen
ry Minor were declared entitled
to seats, and the report of the
committee was final.
