WEST SIDE SEEKS
AMUSEMENT PARK
City Asked to Consider Establishment
of Real Amusement Resort.

So popular has the bathing pavi1-
lion proven at the foot of LIST, recent
" built by the city, that quite a SEN
timent has been crystalized for the To-
cation of a first class municipal
amusement park downN there, and it
is understood that serious considera-
ton is being given the proposition by
Mayor Sanders.
1T is believed that the city can ac-
quire at a very nominal figure five or
six blocks of land on the Baskerville
beach, which would be ample for all
the requirements for pleasure resort,
as. the large holdings of unimproved
land in that vicinity would be consid-
erably enhanced in value by the loca-
ton of city park, so much so that
it would really be lucrative to the
owners to almost give the land to the
city for a site.
The number Of bathers at this point
is growing daily and the housing IA
cilities are already being taxed to their
capacity to take care of the crowds.
The liberality of views of the patrons
OF this resort would justify the cree
ton of a mammoth dancing pavilion,
skating rink and many other forms of
healthful amusement.
The western portion of the city has
been clamoring for an amusement re-
sort for many years, having been neg
1ected IN this respect because no pro-
vision was made along this line when
that portion Of the city was sub-di-
vided years ago,

POLITICS START TO
BOIL In DISTRICT
At Least Three Candidates viii Run

When Mayor Martin, OF Jackson
Vile. attended the centennial celebra-
ton and took part in the ceremonies
last Monday, and it was given out that
he would probably be a gubernatorial
candidate some three years hence. it
was but the incentive to start the
political pot boiling in this congress
sional district, and much talk has
been heard along this line the past
week.
Political gossip has it that not less
than theree, and maybe more will seek
to GUST John Henry Smithwick from
his office as a member of the house or
representatives. 1t is understood that
state Senator ben Lindsay, of Bombay,
will cast his hat in the ring and wage
an aggressive campaign for the toga;
also that State Senator Sing!etary of
Grand Ridge. will shay his castor in
and make an effort to shake down the
fruit. and IL is also announced that
big Ben. Hancock will be at the
barrier when it goes up popped" Tor
the race of his life. However, "Jchn
Henry" is anticipating the fight and
will be on the ground when the fun
starts, with his usual ma ha" and
drum and It will be git for home,
Bruno" when ne gets going good. Since
the return of J. Il. @. Griggs, of Apa-
Iachicola, to the district from Tampa,
where he has been customs collector
for ports of Florida for the past seven
years. and who has aspired on previ-
Gus occasions for a seat in congress,
seeing the game all messed up in this
end of the district, might again aspire
hut this is more assumption.

new GULF BEACH
PLAN PROJECTED
Corporation May Take Over Prop
erty from Theodore Bars.

A movement, has been put on foot
TO orgdnize a S250,000 corporation to
take over the Gulf Beach property
from Theodore Baars and develop It to
its fullest extent as soon as the paved
highway for which the bonds have
been voted is started.
This is Pensacola's most valuable
asset and if given the development
that it warrants will become one of
the most popular and'wen patronized
watering places along the entire gulf
coast
This property skirts the north short
OF Grand Lagoon giving it a COM
handing view of the Gulf of Mexico,
as it IS elevated about 80 feet above
high water mark; has excellent water,
and electricity, IS accessible from the
local plant from its wires at Fort
Barrancas. The right to construct an
electric railway over the reservation
at Fort Barrancas has already been
secured from the war department,
thus making the property easy Of ac-
cess both by electric railway and auto
by completion of the contemplated i'm
proVements.
The development of this property
would mean a big thing to- Pensacola
as the houses and hotels constructed
thereon could be used for the accom-
mediation of the peoples of Alabama;
Georgia and Tennessee 4 who would
stream to this wonderful resort in the
summer months, and in 4he winter
would be available for the northern
tourists who seek the southland to
avoid the severe blasts of. the north,
and who have, owing to the lack of
housing facilities here passed on to
South Florida where the citizens have
had more forethought and made the
necessary housing arrangements to
take carekof the influx
Some delay has been experienced by
the board of county commissioners in
getting the 100000 bond . issue
passed on, which is necessary before
the bonds can be put on the market,
but it is understood that this obstacle
will soon be removed, and it is then
hoped that the engraving and sale of
the bonds will be expedited, as $500, 900
of this issue is authorized for the
construction of the Gulf Beach high
way, which is just Is miles from Pen
sacola, however, about three and one
half miles of this is already paved. If
the matter is given the impetus that
it justifies this highway should be-
available for next years summering.
