4THAT TAMPA TRAIN.
fRy u. ]. Brumby.l

The Tampa Tribune is still making
a strenuous fight for the Sunny Jim"
passenger train for Tampa. which is
proposed to leave Ocala at z a. M,
and serve as sort of drag net for
the towns along the route until Tam
pa itself is reached and for the ben
eft of the Tampa merchants, at the
expense of all the rest along the line.
In this fight of Tampa VS.. Ocala
the Tampa Tribune is ably assisted
by the Ocala Star.
Opposed on the Ocala board of
trade, the retail merchants of Ocala,
the citizens of this city almost to a
unit, the Ocala Banner and last and
least myself who had the temerity to
call attention to the possible injury
of such a schedule to this city.
The secretary of the board of trade
| is the editor of ene Ocala Star. The
editor of the Star is the secretary of
the board of trade. The editor Of the
Star evidently did not agree with the
board of trade when that body by a
unanimous vote formally passed
a resolution protesting against the
PROPOSED schedule. Therefore the sec
rotary of the board of trade eliminated
from his records all mention of this
action and when reading his minutes
at the next meeting for approval was
promptly called down and the very
glaring omission ordered corrected.
Does the secretary of the board OF
trade possess the veto power upon
the action of that body?
The Ocala board of trade is now
engaged in making every effort tC
secure additional and improved pas
lsenger schedules that will bring PEG
pie to Ocala and not take them away
Yet if all the schedules desired were
obtained these would not Offset the
i injury of this particular Sunny jim
! train.
Do the citizens of the interior o
Florida believe this to be- such small
thing? Or do they realize that for ;
couple of decades every movemen
has been toward the building up o
the seaport towns and in many case
, as in this-to the detriment of TIL
interior of the state Cal
, any citizen of Ocala recall
, railway schedule, or railway rate
that has not been more favorable t
; the coast cities than to the interior
. The remarkable and peculiar phas
of journalistic ethics illustrated b.
: the Tmribune and the Star
I shall not herein discuss. But. becaus
, Sunny jim has moved his sampl
room from Ocala to Tampa is no pal
ticular reason. at least from an Ocal
standpoint, why an injurious railwa
schedule should be inaugurated.

The Baltimore Sun and the Courier
Journal are at it again. The Courier
Journal wrote an interview of some
college tlesis that defended the re-
publican party for cheating Tilden
and seating Hayes. Whereupon the
Baltimore Sun deposed as follows:
Hon. Henry Watterson is astride his
galloping cayuse with baleful gilt
ter in his eye. There is war-raging
war-north, south, east and west;
war, massacre, pillage and carnage
war that, like a wedge, widens bloody
chasms and horrible abysses; war,
that, like a volcano, makes the who
earth seem sickly pale and greenish
liza it's stupenduous glare, and all be-
cause another college professor has
presumed to say his say about the
dastardly deed of 1876"
And the Courier-Journal came out
with the dread word: 'The staid old
Baltimore Sun has got itself a whang
