Significant Comparison.

Let Us briefly review the conduct
and attitude OF the two political
parties since 1912: The Republican
party during the period from 1909 10
1913 had widely split on the rock OF
the Payne Tariff law and OF special
privilege. Since that time the old
guard Republicans who were and are
the very embodiment OF those two
odious governmental policies. have
been in absolute control Of the latter
day Republican party. The former
progressive Republican leaders have
simply been trailing along in the rear.

REVELATIONS

Why Madge Was Nervous When She
Called on the "other Mrs. Graham"
The amount of interest which found
myself enjoying in my invitation to take
tea with the ''other Mrs. Graham sur
prised me. 1t was an unusual thing for
me to be so affected by such a trivial
occurrence.
Upon analyzing my own thought pro-

covered that while part of my Unrest
was accounted for by the rather I'M
usual circumstances of my telephone &C
quaintance with her, the greater portion
of it was due to her apparently casual

had been taken after my ostensible "au-

The chimerical idea that there was
some connection between her question
and my dramatic days at the hospital
became conviction, then an obsession

ARE WE READY :?

! ARE WE READY?
Within the next few days federal engineers
in Montgomery will be ready to make final ap-
prevail of the Pensacola F1omaton road project
Whether Escambia county will receive the fed
eral aid that has been allotted her so that actual
j. work on this important road can begin will de-
,spend upon whether Escamba county is ready.
J. - We have particular reference to the question
of rights of ways. We understand that all of
these have not been obtained even for the ten
mile project, to say nothing of the Pensacola
ssFlomaton road in it's entirety
:...%%a It is not know just what the governments
attitude will be along this line; whether con-
-tinuous right of way will be asked or Just the
,ten-nile remains to be SEEN At any rate nothing
less than a sixty-six foot right of way will bring
federal aid for the construction and improvement
of the ten-nile project which is in immediate con-
temptation
~ So it is up to the people of Escambia county,
and the property holders along the road in par
ticular, to give this question their immediate at
Eention. At best it will take considerable time to
carry through the encessary proceedings to- en-
able Escambia county to tell the federal govern
sn1ent that all is in readiness.
Most everyone is familiar with the REQUIRE
.fnents. A siXty-six foot right of way is asked.
This means thirty-three feet from the center of
! the present right of way towards each of the
/ property lines.
I x Some of the property owners along this road
may be reluctant about granting their portion to-
/ wards having the road constructed. But when
one considers the increased valuation of the prop
efty that will come with paved highway, it does
I not seem unreasonable to ask that they sign al
( quit claim deed to whatever their part may be-
/ But yet they have an unquestionable right to
! stake whatever stand in the matter they may
choose
!, The only interest The Journal has is to seeI
actual work on the road begin and to see it's COM
{ pletiOn. 1t will mean much to Escambia county

property holders will not be the losers in the long
run, we suggest that if it is possible for them to
