~. r. p" Replies to Prot. ktag.
To the Editor OF the Ocala Banner:
In a recent issue of the Star an ar
ticle appeared bearing the insignif-
cant signature of one Prof. w. F.
King, in which he called on ~. Il.
P" to uncover himself an article
which is being severely criticised and
received with disgust and utter con-
demnation by the general public - an
article frou, a man who has the repu-
tation of a rash, Jhoughtless. inccm-
patible, repugnant and changeable
co-worker of the ''drys," and refuses
to unfurl his true colOrs, if he has
any, simply because he has the as
surance of a third grade certificate
for some piney woods school later on.
His sole object in writing the ar
ticle was to censure -. r. P" for
the publication of his true statements
in iast weeks Star. He refused to
venture forth with information for
the public, neither did he attempt to
disprove SINGLE statement which the
article referred to contained.
Yes, he calls for 81. r. P" to come
from under cover, and, professor, 1
wish to say, here come with every
foot up, toe nails dragging and tongue
hung on wire. My name is j. 4.
Porter-Joseph Richard Porter and
if you have any other bare-faced
statements to make concerning 81.
r. Pr 1 invite you into the field,
that you may once again convince
the people that you know no more
about what you are talking about
than Baalam's ass knew about the
ology in the ancient days when kings
of w. F.'s type were not considered.
1 am speaking directly to you,
Prof, and / must assert that You
were the victim of q nightmare
dreaming of gurgling waters escaping
some bath tub, or having visions of
dog fights-when your ''knot'' con-
ceived snch little. insignificant
thoughts as you wrought into your
article.
In your ''little piece" you said.
Don't hide behind . tree like IN A.
sassin and fire your indecency into
the faces of indecent people," This,
Prof.. prompts the presumption that
it struck You very forcibly between
your little ''Bo Peeps"
But why should waste time over
such small matters?
Now, Prof, in conclusion, will
say that 1 am always with you in
every action which pertains to q
higher life in all that is good, noble
and true and which serves instru-
mental in perfecting a more congo
NAL intimatiOn between the people of
God, but l am not with you or any
one else in exchanging the open sa-
loon for the bathroom tiger"
You know this will be the case if
the ''drys' succeed. You are COM
PEELED to know it, il you are a logical
thinker, and people will not believe
that you believe your own self when
you ac- to the contrary.

Speaks We'll for Florida.

1t has been proved that Florida can
get along pretty we'll without her or
ange crop. But it was thought fiji
teen or twenty years ago that orange
growing was the only profitable in
dustry possible in the state. The fol-
lowing from the VOlusia County
Record gives some idea of the chang
ed condition in the orange section of
the state:
FLORIDA is enjoying a permanent
prosperity, and remember, if you
please, that the orange industry cuts
but little figure in this prosperity.
Years ago the orange crops, ap-
parently, were everything to Flor
ida
1t is gratifying to know that South
Florida is not dependent upon the or
ange crop alone, but has developed
other resources of still greater i'm
portance--Pensacola News.

try in the number of water-power-
electrical plants under construction
and in contemplation. Some of these
it says are of great magnitude, even
rivaling in Importance the largest
electrical power development in the
country, with the exception of Nj
agar which of course stands alone.
Not far even behind the first cleo
trical development of Niagara, it
says, is the undertaking at Whitney,
N. c., where several million dollars
are being spent in the development of
a power which at the initial stage
will furnish about 10000 h. D., to be
followed later on by additional devel-
opment which will increase it to 49,
600 b. p. This. by far the largest
single water-power ENTERPRISE in the
south, and one of the largest in the
country. has stimulated widespread
interest in what is being done along
this line of work throughout the
south.
Exceeding the operations at Whit
ney in the aggregate of power, is the
project of tho Southern Power Co.,
just organized with a capital of ST.
500. 900, 1t Charlotte, N. c., and pro-
poses to continue the development
1t other sites. all under one control,
to IN aggregate of ITO. 900 h. p, to be
transmitted for electrical work to
points tributary to its various power
plants.
Another extensive undertaking of
this character cited by the Record is
that of the Chattanooga and Tennes-
see River Power company, which
proposes to develop from $4,000 to
40, 600 h. p. on the Tennessee river
below Chattanooga. The company
has capital of S3.OOO,OOO
The extensive operations along this
line .iot cited by the Record are those
being conducted at Roanoke, Va. by
Colonel W. n. Camp. of this ciry,
aid when completed. this gentleman,
born it seems to undertake great en-
terprises, will turn his attention to
the Withlacoochee river and do won
aerfEl things for this section in cleo
trical propuisions-
Drawing picture of the possibiii-
ties within the easy grasp Of the
south with the aid of this new power
the Record says with some degree of
enthusiasm that with her vast resour-
ces in coal. furnishing the cheapest
fuel available1 in the country for
steam purposes, and the almost un-
limited water-power resources of other
parts of the south. many of these
powers being in sections where no
coal is available, this section as a
whole has an advantage in the way
of providing the cheapest possible
power by coal and water. of any Sec
ton of the country.
The aggregate of water-power de-
velopments recently completed in the
south, it is shown from careful rec
ords made by enterprising proprie-
tors of the Record, those now under
way and others like to be developed
by companies now being formed will
total not far from 500, 900 to SOC, 900 h.
p.
This phase of southern PROCESS is
likely to command wide attention,
for having been so well begun, cleo
trical development promises to be-
con-e one of the most notable features
of southern advancement in the flu
ture.

and spurred, and is galloping forward

Nuggets from Alaska s..,ses I.ien
item II the Portland Fsu.

j. J. Cotter, Portland miner who
has been for some time prospecting
in Alaska, has returned with evil
dence of a big strike in the 4O-mile
district. He brought for exhibition a
number of nuggets which have at
tracted much attention. The nuggets
are displayed with others from Alas
ka in glass case, which is inclosed
i'll cage of heavy wire. The total
value of the nuggets in the showcase
is 80. 900. but outside the case but
within the cage, the largest of all
the gold specimens is displayed. 1t is
nugget worth S3,276. found near
Nome, and the visitor i, permitted to
put his hand through an opening in
the side of the cage and test the
weight of the chunk of gold.
Mr.. c. w. White. of Citra, is oper-
ating near where this big nugget was
found
Mr.. COtter's specimens are all of
good size. The largest is a piece of
gold worth Sa12.5O. The collection is
valued at $3.50. Besides the nuggets.
the display from the Cotter strike
contains a double handful of coarse
gold, exhibited on a saucer. The gold
is labeled dust" but none of the
particles are smaller than a pea.
The gold came from a mine on Jack
Wade creek, in the 4O-mile district.
Jack Wade creek is located about
140 miles down the Yukon river from
Dawson.

So Pointed IS g Do Almost Personal.
Among the instances which have
already been made public of crooked
ness in the public service of the state
we have that of one who occupied q
position of great trust and confidence
and who has been accused, under
oath, of using that position to acquire
unlawful gain. which accusation has
never yet been satisfactorily denied !;
and although this person no longer
occupies the position he had disgrace
ed. he left it with . fulsome certif'-
cate of good character, and was i'm
mediately employed in another
branch of the public service. Does
this look like an effort to purge the
public service of unworthy elements?

q Fish Story.

Speaking of cooking fish reminds
me of the way we used to cook 'em
when ! was out in the Yellowstone.
You know, they frequently have out
there an ice cold trout stream on one
side of hill and a boiling hot spring
ON the other. When we wanted some
fish TO eat we just went down TO one
of those hills with rod and tackle
We would throw the fly into the cold
spring, and in less time than it takes
to tell it big trout would be on the
hook. Then We would fling the line
with the fish on it over into the hot
spring, and in about ten n,lnut = that
trout was boiled 10 a turn "--Sunny

HORSES DIE FRon EFFECTS OF ayS.
FERROUS DISEASE.

Within the past week several horses
have died from a disease which the
veterinary surgeon find it difficult to
diagnose.
The conclusion is that the disease
is contagious among horses, the ami
mails dying within a few hours after
being stricken.
Among tie horses that have died
were two belonging to Mr.. ]. E. Lum-
mus, one belonging to Mr.. c. d. Left
Ter, and a mule belonging to Mr.. J.
n. Lummus. These animals were all
confined in the same lot, but yester-
day morning the city mule. stabbed
at Corell's livery, was found to be
sick and died within a few hours.
At first it W as thought that the death
of che horses was due to poison, but
the veterinaries said it was disease.
Yesterday morning Mr.. J. E. LINN
mus big grey horse was found to be
sick, and vigorous efforts were made
to save his life. Fortunately DR..
Jones happened to be passing and
was called to treat the horse. He ap-
piled remedies which have 80 far held
the disase in check, and the horse
seemed to he improving last night
Owners of fine horses are very much
interested and are anxious to know
whether there is to be an epidemic of
a fatal disease among the stock of
this section.

that the disea-e is an unusual form of
