are unable to buy books, and for
the visitors. How proud we feel
when a visitor says, Have you a
public library here?" aud can an
swer, "Oh yes Ocala has a public
library" A few days ago a lady
came into the library and said,
"The waiting maid at the depot
told me this was a public library
and that l would find it more
pleasant waiting here where l
could real the latest magazines
than at the depot and as l have
several hours to wait for my train
/ have taken her advice" After
spending couple Of hours she
left but not without saying, 81

hours and l only wish every place
at which l had to stop over had
such nice library. l Ihope in the
future when l have TO wait it. will
always be iu Ocala." Let us do
all we can to keep up our library,
for it is a credit to our town.
Do not wait for people to come
to you and ask you TO subscribe,
but go up and inspect the rooms
and we are sure you will not leave
without taking out subscription.
Young men do not stand around
on the street corners with your
hands in your pockets but go up
and spend few pleasant hours in

our town depends upon you who
are growing up and you cannot dc
better than build a solid tounda

Choate As a Tutor.
(Grsen Bag. J

When Judge Jonas Cutting of Bangor
left his home at Croydon, N. H., to en-
ter Dartmouth College, his father was
unable to spare his horse from work
longer than would take him half the
way, and the remainder of the distance
between his home and Hanover he
travelled on foot, with his feather bed
and other QUILTING in pack upon his
back. In this act of self reliance and de-
termination may be seen on what foun-
dation rested his success both in college
and In after life. His college experiences
were often a theme for recollections, and
his most precious "Reminiscences was that
Rufus Choate was his tutor and that he
gained his respect and esteem, which
lasted as long as the world renowned
advocate lived. HE delighted too in prais-
Ing his tutors wonderful scholarship and
the ease with which he impaired to all
the class an ambition to become fine
scholars. That his sway and influence in
these respects were potent, no one doubts.
but besides he Was gentle as woman in
his manner-a mild admonition, if need
ed, taking the place of a rebuke. One
of the duties Of Tutor Choate was that of
church monitor. One Monday morning.
as Judge Cutting used to tell it, all The
asbentees from church gave the euuiyocal
excuse of "indlsposed," adopting the
word used by the first student called nm
and required to explain the cause of his
non attendance at church. At the end
of the roll call there was profound ST.
lence; but after some pause the tutor
said: "Young men, l never knew of so
great an epidemic as this accompanied
with so little mortality Do not let it
occur again"

CURRENT COMMENT.
CALL FOR MCKINLEY TO SPEAK.
IN. Y. Sum-
COMA &c.

IN. Y. Sun.
Before long, possibly, the happiness OF
the Boss Buckeye McKinleyite, the Gin
cinnati Commercial Gazette. will be as
perfect as the ideal which 1t would have
all delegates believe to be the actual Ma
JOr Mckinley himself. The manner in
which the ohink is to be filed in our
contemporary bliss over the Mckinley
boom shows where the chink is. We
quote from. this faithful friend and loyal
Ohio organ:
If despach to the Commercial Ad-
vertiser of New York, bearing date of
Cincinnati, Is correct, Governor McKin-
ley's friends think he Ia now strong
enough to come out with a fat-footed
declaration against free silver.
1--WE hope the report is true"
The Commercial Gazette sees that "not
an important Republican State, unless
1t be New Hampshire. since tho Ohio
convention, has failed to pronounce
against free silver" 1t pictures to itself
the enthusiasm which would be excited
II the man who leads in the Presidential
race" the Ohio man, Mckinley. "were
to say that under his Interpretation of
the Ohio PLATFORM that platform means
precisely what the platforms of New
York, Massachusetts,, Maine and Rhode
Island mean" The people having made
this issue Mckinley must talk in agree
ment with them, and talk straight, in
order to ''show himself a great and
worthy leader Of the people "
We await tn sensation SO strongly de-
sired by the Commercial Gazette with
interest equal to its own impatience.
When will the Hon. William Mckinley
prove that the money plank of the Ohio
Republicans means the same as those
adopted by their brothers in New York,
Massachusetts,, Rhode Island and Mainei
When will the WARBLER cease to wabble,
and the platform be at rest? When will
the leader in the race for the nomination
become also the leader of the people,
with whom already, rem ember, are those
very prominent statesmen, Levi Parsons
Morton of New York and Thomas Brack-
EFT Reed of Maine?

THE ST. LOUIS CONVENTION AND
THE CURRENCY.
(St. Louis Globe Democrat. }


With regard to the financial utterance
of the st. Louis convention there is
hardly any uncertainty whatever. All
the declarations of the Republican Con-
ventions which have elected delegates
at large to ST. Louis, except those of
Ohio, Iowa. New Hampshire and one or
two other States, have been far more
specific and robust deliverances in favor
or honest money than was that of the
National Convention of 1892. This is
not only true of New York, Massaohu-
setts, Rhode Island, New Jersey and
Maine, but also of Kentucky in the
South, and Wisconsin, Minnesota, the
two Dakotas, Oregon and Nebraska in
the West In several of the Western
States here named, and especially in the
Dakotas and Nebraska, the 16 to 1 men
made hard fight, but they were badly
beaten, and will make no serious dem
oustration hereafter this year. Ken
lucky declared directly and specifically
for the "gold dollar" the STANDARD Of
the great commercial nations"
1t is very easy from the expressions of
these States to determine the sentiment
Of the Republican party on silver. With
the few exceptions named the Republi-
cans of the whole country arc opposed to
any further increase in the silver ele-
ment of the currency save through in
ternational agreement. No sectional line
Is drawn in the party on this issue. The
West and South stand with the East in
opposition to any further debasement of
the circulating medium. The great
States of the West and South yet to hold
Conventions-Illin Missouri. Michi-
gan, Indiana, Maryland, Tennessee and
the others-will cline up" with those
which have already spoken. Silver men
will not be allowed to write any part of
the financial plank this year. The 1899
blunder of this sort will not be repeated
The ST. Louis utterance for honest mon
ey. for dollars worth, 100 cents at all
places, at ali times and under all oiroum-
stances, will be so plain that it will
mean precisely the same thing in Mon
tana and Massachusetts,, in Michigan and
Mississippi.

responsible for good many of the mani.
festations of this force.

AS might have been predicted, the at
tempt of Mr.. William R. Morrison to
straddle the currency question has not
pleased either side to the controversy.
The silver leaders at Washington declare
that he has put himself in the ranks of
the gold standard advocates, while the
sound money" men do not like his crit
icisms of Mr.. Carlisle and the admins
tration. Summed up in few words,
the extremists of both sides are dissatis-
fed with the stand taken. TIE silver
men say there is no possibility of Morri-
sons nomination. They will have no.

The gold Democrats of Illinois think
they can control the State convention
with the help of the office holders and
the influence Of the administration.
Time was when M. Cleveland didn't al
low the office holders to help, :but that ia

office holders whoop for sound money of

But woe unto those who whoop for the

to make it law. The passage of the bill,
like everything else that happens in New

Mr.. Patti. II his opponents are to be
