Sometimes you - are
compelled to be away
from home. And then
at night, when every one
is asleep the burglar or
sneak thief has things
as he wants them. But
if you had your valuable
papers receipts, deeds,
insurance policies, etc,
in one of our strong fire
and burglar proof boxes
you wouldn't have to
worry at all.
; Isn't it worth $2.00 a
year not to worry?

not tell you about Pensacola Is not
worth knowing or hearing, and the
' tourist who does not at some time or
another draw upon his store of infor

tourist. He has served successfully as
president of the -Pensacola Tourist
club, resigning because the position
consumed too much of his time.

EW CHARTER IS
DISCUSSED AT
THE CITY HALL
GENERAL OPINION WAS THAT
COMMISSION SHOULD BE COM
POSED OF THREE MEN, RECEIV
ING $3,000 PER YEAR EACH.
Iff the desires of a majority of those
who attended the meeting called by the
city council committee having in charge
the matter of framing a charter for the
government of Pensacola by commis
sion government are granted, the first
commission, will be composed of three
members, who shall not actively en
gage In any other business, serve for
one, two and three years and receive
a salary of $3,000 each per year this
being the decision arrived at last night
at the meeting held in the council
chamber for the purpose of discussing
the matter.
At the opening of the meeting Alder
man Semmes, chairman of the com
mittee, said that In order to put the
matter Intelligently before the audience
the clerk would read the proposed
charter as arranged by the committee
and which appeared In part in The
Journal a' few days ago. It was first
read through and later by sections.
The motion .to make the number of
commissioners three was made by J. O.
Walker and was carried by a standing
vote. About fourteen, who favored
placing the number at more than three,
voted against the motion.
The motion to pay each commis
sioner $3,000 a year was made by M. E.
Morey.
The motion that the commissioners
be prohibited from engaging In other
business was made by A-.V. Clubbs,
who said that they should be com
pelled to devote their entire time to
the duties of their offices.
Aldermen Semmes and Concannon
both approved of the suggestion made
by Mr. Clubbs and said that the com
missioners should not be allowed to
engage actively In any other business
or be allowed to receive a salary for
any other work which they might per
form. Alderman Moyer, the other member
o the committee,, did not approve of
the Idea of -compelling-a commissioner
to devote all of his time to the duties
of the office, but thought that they

ness which they could attend to be
tween the hours of 5 to 9 a. m. and
from 4 p. m. to as late as they may
see fit. .
