Badly Needed

There is no doubt that the
court house woodwork and roof
needed painting badly. 1t was
economy to do SO. Its walls
needed kalsominlng badly within,
il for no other reason than for
hygienic purposes, to say nothing
of the sightliness it gave the
room. Commissioner Mcleod
favored the work and voted for
it. 1t is to his credit, and much
more so when he noticed, last
Saturday, the striking difference
between the cleaned walls in the
court room and the unslghtly,
dirty walls in the corridor and
offices below, and these, too, he
had kalsomined; for all of which
Mcleod has and will continue to
have the thanks of the taxpayers
of Ocala and OF those of the
county who believe in having
public property kept in decent
order.

SIMON BENJAMIN
A Good Man For County Com
missioner

A Good Man For County Com
missioner
After writing our notes yester-
day, giving our preferences for a
primary, at which to record our
verdict for a certain person as
our personal choice as a candi-
date for county commissioner,
the call, ordering such a primary,
came to the office and was pub
lished. The machinery having
been set in motion, and a number
of our leading business men and
taxpayers having been consulted,
we find them in hearty accord
with us in the opinion that Simon
Benjamin would make a first
class representative for that Of
flee, and, his wishes being con-
suited, he says that he is not and
will not be candidate in the
sense that he will make a person
al canvass, seeking, by that
means, votes, but If the people,
in their sovereign capacity, pre-
fer him by their votes to any
other, and he is commissioned, he
will serve the people to the best
of his ability.
With this fact before us, the
Star takes pleasure in presenting
Mr.. Benjamin's name for the Of
flee of county commissioner. 1t
does so, realizing his eminent fit
ness. AS we remarked yester-
day, if there is another man in
this district whose qualifications
for that important and RESPONSE
ble local legislative position are
superior to Mr.. Benjamin's, we
will be pleased to receive his
name and publish the same.
The Star favors Mr. Benjamin
because he has held the office be-
fore, is familiar with its small
and interminable details as well
as the things Of Importance that
come before the board for it's de-
liberation and decision. He not
only knows of these things but
has the patience, energy, appll=
cation and tact TO hear the story,
investigate and then pass upon il I.
The duties of this office are ex-
acting; it is only a thoroughly
trained business man, with a
mind grooved to detail and sys-
tenn, that can handle them. Per-
sons who have sat with the
board in it's sessions as the writer
has, and noted all that the fore
going suggests, can appre-
ciate the necessity of hav.
ing the best trained business
men of the county serve as it's
representatives.
We favor Mr.. Benjamin be-
cause of his broad and liberal
ideas of public policy. No mar
cow local or provinclalism con-
tracts his power of vision or
blinds him to the merits of a
proposition, no matter from what
section of the country it may
coHe. He Is neither a crank,
ylsionist nor a rider of hobbies.
He has matured ideas, formed
along intelligent and practical
lines, and as such applies them.
We favor Mr.. Benjamin be-
cause his services in the city
council and as a member of the
board of trustees Of the Ocala
sub school district demonstrates
beyond a shadow of a doubt that
he has capacity and is efficient.
His work has been such as to
call forth the unstinted praise
and endorsement of his cola
borers.
| We could go on at length and
give other valid reasons for our
faith as to why Mr.. BENJAMIN
would make model public SER
want, but desist for the present
| as our readers know or should
| LnnU liC naoritS &C well &c Wo do

situations with tho police and sheriff's office
and the guards at tho plants have been doubled.
Several arrests have been made OF union and
non union men for carrying conceale led weapons
At the Globe works no one Is admitted unless

1t IL said that there are twenty men within tho

cured no attempt to start up will be made
