NON. G. ~. BROWN.

Hon. G. NJ. Brown arrived in Ocala
Wednesday from Miami and will re-
main until Saturday when he will
proceed to Tallahassee to be present
at the opening session of the senate
He saws that he has not relinquished
his citizenship in this district and
will not do so until after he
shall have served the time for which
he was elected. He has obtained a
certificate from the registration Of
ficer showing that his name still APP
pears on the registration list of this
county and also one showing that his
name is still on the Presbyterian
church roll of Ocala. He will also
show that in the recent special cleo
ton the registration list was not re-
vised as required by law and that in
consequence the election was illegal
and is null and void.
Mr.. Brown feels that he viii be
given his seat by the senate and will
serve his term out without Interrupt
ton and without any qualms of con-
fcience as to his residence.

An Appeal &c the Citizens.
cOVSrV.

The committee which was appoint
Ell by the Marion County Hospital
association TO get up subscriptions for
the maintenance of the hospital, met
on Saturday afternoon.
This committee feels encouraged to
proceed with the work which they
have undertaken to carry out, but
much remains TO be done. Il was
decided TO continue the committee in
force for another week leaving the
subscription lists at the various banks
and places of business in town. as
there are a number of citizens who
are able to help this cause whose
names DO not appear on the lists at
all.
1t is possible that those who have
not put their names down on the list
are busy men and have not the time
TO attend TO the matter, but they
must remember that it is expected of
them that their subscriptions be VOL
untary. GEORGE MACKAY,

NOTES OF A SOUTHERN JOURNEY.

The houses in the Carolinas are
built without cellars, but raised on
piers, leaving all open underneath.
1t requires nice judgment to get the
piers of proper height so the razor

why" said a gentleman TO us
while in Jacksonville. "cannot c.. NJ.
Brown live in Miami and represent
Ocala in the senate?" Watson he
said, ''iives in Dade and represents
Osceola in the senate, while Bert
Dyal lives in Georgia, and has had
for years a seat in the Florida Iegis-
lature. "-0cala Banner.
The legislature may be called upon
TO decide the above question. It Is
one that should be properly settled
in justice 10 the state OF Florida and
the above gentlemen. Mr. Watson's
kissimmee, or Csc 1oIa county, con-
stituentS deny that he had moved
from that county, and they are per-
fectly willing for him TO continue to
represent them in the legislature
Although another man will be elect
ed, per proclamation of the governor,
instead of Brown, yet that does not
entirely take the matter out of the
hands OF the legislature. This case
is different from the Watson case, as
Browns Marion county constituents
seemed to have repudiated him as a
nonresident. The Dyal ease is one
of an entirely different nature, the
allegation being that he is not even
citizen of Florida. This, however,
Will have TO be established before
any proceedings can be instituted to
GUST him. Mr.. Dyal, no doubt, can
make the proper defense, or he would
never have consented TO nomination

BUYERS.

During the extremely hard weather
| which has prevailed in the North,
there has been a period of business
dizziness, especially in the piano busi-
ness. This has led mum Der of
prominent piano factories TO take
special means for stimulating sales
Pianos take up an immense amount
of room, and it is necessary To
''mOve" them to make room for new
instruments continually scoming for
ward.
The Ludden-Campbell- Smith Com
pany, Is West Bay street, a most i'm
pOrtant outlet for MANY of the leading
factories, has been for some time IN
receipt of tempting offers, and Nr-
Smith, of the firm, has just returned
from flying trip TO New York,
where he made such arrangements
that his well known firm was able to
announce the most important sale Of
pianos at positive bargains, ever Of
fered in this city. New upright pianos
usually sold for S275 to $3.50, have
been reduced in price to s195, 1925,
500, 1925 and 1919, and while cash al
ways buys to best advantage, as every
one knows, those who wish TO buy on
installments will save a proportion
ately large sum, and can buy at S6
per month if desired. In addition to
the large stock Of new pianos, there
are many slightly used uprights,
which have been rented for the sea-
son, which are practically equal to
new, and yet can be purchased at
very low prices and on easy terms,
some as easy as S5per month.
There is very large sJock of the
finest art uprights and grands. incIud-
ing some III the new ma" finish.
This viii also be fine chance TO Sc
cure piano player at liberal re-
duction, several slightly used ones
! being offered as low as 1928. This is
certainly an opportunity TO save d
substantial sum Of none. It Will
pay intending;buyers TO call. even If
not ready TO buy now, and purchasers
throughout the state may Gepend on
careful selection and can buy from
this1well- known and old established
firm as safely by mail as in person.
Remember, the sale i at the Ludden-

West BAY street, and that this is the
only house with which the veterans
