OolbY,s Photographic Studio.

The busiest place in town that we
have visited lately is Colby's photo
studio. Besides himself, he has two
firstclass assistants, and all hands were
rushing, trying to fill the accumulated
orders for the different styles of work
done there. Mr.. Colby says his re-
TOUGHER, Mr.. Ware, is the finest he
ever had, and is the best in this state.
while Mr.. Hand is too well known as
a superior workman to need any praise
from us. They are both firstclass OPP
orators, so when ever Mr.. Colby is alb
absent the work goes on and his pat
rons are assured of the best work pos
sible, and that no finer work can be
had any where, land his polite attend
ants will be ever ready to serve the
public.

To the Editor of the Banner
As politics are now on the tapis we in
the northern part of the county will
make our sentiments known: We are
fer railroad commission, fair, just
and equitable; one that will look after
the interest of the shipper without
doing anything to destroy or retard
our transportation lines. We want
men in the legislature to formulate
such law as will benefit both par
ties. We are not fighting railroads be-
cause they are corporations, (nothing
of the kind) but we feel that we are
paying too much money to get our
produce to market. We think it can
be carried for much less, and we also
think it unjust to discriminate in fa-
vor of the large shippers to the detri-
ment of the smaller ones. We want
our legislature to give US a commits
sion, and we should like to see that
body represented by honest and capable
men and good many of us up here
think the men to give US honest and
capable work are:
For the Senate: F. f. Harris.
For the Assembly: Alfred Aver. DIR.
ID. A. Smith.
This ticket would suit the people
and do honor t. our county. To these
men we have both brains and hon esty
combined and they are all men of
standing and worth, and there is
nothing small or mean about them.

turned to Congress.
| To the Editor of the Banner.
have been surprised that General
! Bullock has not been concentrated
upon without hesitation or delay to
succeed Mr. Cooper, who has certainly
not met the expectations of his con-
stituents in supporting measures in
Congress for the relief of the people
On lines mapped out by the conven-
ton which nominated him and gave
him a platform as guide, and instead
of adhering to which he has preferred
to go outside of it, and beyond it, and
say to his democratic supporters, II
have opinions of my own" and pre-
fers to be guided by them.
If General Bullock was known to
the people as ], and many other old
citizens know him, there would be no
hesitation in this matter.
/ know it is custom to give Con-
gresham from the second district two
terms in Congress, but it is very
| silly custom, and il that custom is to
prevail, all who remember what Gen.
/ eral Bullock went through during his
two terms in Congress; first from a
contest for his seat by his republican
opponent, which Bullock triumphant
| ly won, and in his great effort to do so
lost his health and was great sufferer
| for great portion Of his second term.
So it cannot in fairness be said that he
had two terms, and in justice to him
self and the interest of Florida, he
should have been returned to Congress,
instead of having been defeated at
Gainesville two years ago by methods
many think discreditable.
1t was certainly inconsistent for the
convention to defeat and thereby re-
| pudiate sitting member serving out
his second term and in the next breath
unanimously pass resolution declar-
ing that he had made satisfactory
and successful candidate. This is
what the Gainesville convention did.
have recently had conversations
with General Bullock and he shares
| the opinion with nearly all with whom
| have talked to on the subject of his
defeat by that convention that it was
not the will of the democratic voters
of the district and the verdict of that
convention was received with surprise
by seventy-fivo per cent of his constit-
uents.
OF course do not know personally
whether General Bullock was all he
ought to have been as a member of
Congress or not, but / have never heard
from source worthy of confidence,
anything about him but concentrations
of his efficiency, and have heard
from persons who visited Washington
and made it q point to inquire into his
standing among his brother members,
the heads OF departments and Others

tribute TO the distinguished speaker,
thence amidst loud hurrahs intro
duced tie Hon. sgd &. Carter, who
scared on the wings of the American
eagle in a manner most easy and
graceful and pleasing to his large au-
dienee. He was at his best and did
the subject and the occasion full JUS
tiee. The address was patriotic and
eloquent and replete with profound
aud thoughtful utterances After the
speaking the infantry and artillery
drill, the parade of the fire depart
ment and foot races were interesting
features. At night there was an illu-
minated bicycle race and the render
ing in the opera house of the beautiful
four-act drama, entitled the Fire
mans Heart written especially for
the occasion by Mrs. Beatrice Marean.
The opera house was crowded and the
piece was so much of success that
there was universal demand to have
it repeated. Many compliments were
paid to the actors and actresses, and
the presentation to the authoress of
the play of a medal representing in
beautiful design the "Fireman's
Heart, which came to her as an en-
tire surprise, was most thoughtful,
appropriate and beautiful gift, given
in the right way and at the right
time. The medal can be seen in the
window of Mr.. Burnett's jewelry
store, and a card from Mrs. Marean

thanks and admiration to the firemen
for the beautiful and thoughtful to-

CARD OF THANKS.

To the true hearted firemen Of Ocala
desire to express my earnest thanks
for the beautiful token presented to
me on the occasion of the first repre-
sentation of "The Fireman's Heart
at the opera house July 4th, in evil
dence of their appreciation of the
service they deem / rendered them.
This token, beautiful in itself, is yet
still more beautiful as a fitting en-
blem of their noble-hearted profession
calling which no coward heart can
or would embrace.
A fireman's heart must ever be q
brave one.
My gallant friends may rest assured
that their generous gift will ever be
regarded by me as one of my most
treasured possessions, and shall oe
handed down as an heir loom as the
years pass on to my children and my
children's children.
In simple justice, however, permit
me to say that not to the writer OF
tThe Fireman's Heartn alone belongs
the full measure of its success. What
/ would these written words have been
but empty sounds but for the untiring
energy and devotion If Chief Camp
bell and Mr.. Gotleib, and each and
every member of the Ocala Comedy
Company, who so successfully i'm
parted life and spirit into those words,
turning them into living, moving,
sentiment beings? "Honor to whom
honor is due"
Once again / thank the warm
hearts that beat beneath the uniforms
of Ocala's fire department for their
generous and most unexpected gift.

Less Than Three Hundred Chicago Work.
srs Affected By the Action.
CHIcAso, April ls.-The general lockout
Of the Chicago Building Trades workmcn
set for yesterday proved grand failure.
Instead of the &C, 1000 men whom the con-
tractors claimed would be thrown out of
employment less than 800 were affected.
A new organization of boss builders.
known as the Central Building league.
announced several days ago that. owing
to the numerous strikes. the employers
would take a decided stand against or.
gantzed labor, and lockout was declared
In which, 1t was claimed, practically every
contractor and boss builder in the city
would participate. But the contractors
who advocated the general lockout were
not In the majority. There was not unan-
unity among them. 1t is said the most
strenuous hackers OF the lockout have but
little work on hand,
Many of them did MI sop and will not
stop work. There is serious division and
disagreement In the Central Building
league, in which the lockout idea orfgi-
mated. Some OF the wealthiest contractors
and most extensive employers of skilled
labor opposed the lockout, and will not be
bound by the resolution adopted In the
league by r small majority. BY these men,
who do not approve of the effort to par
alyZs the building industry, 1t is stated
that the leaders of the lockout firms had
but few men employed. that most of their
Jobs are nearly completed. and that they
could enter upon struggle with the
trades unions ut a minimum of loss and
inconvenience to themselves and their bust.
ness.
There 10 little or no Indication of the
lockout about the city, as work on nearly
ell the new buildings is still going on.
Labor leaders are jubilant, claiming a vic.
tory for organized labor, and many promi-
nent contractors asserted that no such
movement at this time Of the year could
succeed.
