From TUESDAYS Daily :
OF THE MARSHAL
AND POLICEMEN

In obedience to the resolutions
adopted at a mass meeting of citizens
held Monday night demanding the re-
moval of the marshal and policemen
of Ocala from Office, a special meeting
of the city council was held Thurs
day morning, when the matter was
duly and promptly considered.
Mr.. Duval was not pleased with the
wording Of the resolution demanding
that the council do so and so, and also
favored giving the officers whose dis
missal was demanded, a fair and i'm
partial hearing. He thought that this
was a constitutional right that these
officers possessed.
However, after a good deal of talk
ing and parleying a resolution dis
missing Marshal Cleveland and Police
man Homer Dean was adopted.
Mr.. w. c. Bull was elected marshal
to succeed Marshal Cleveland and
John D. Glover policeman 20 succeed
Homer Dean.
The applicants were w. c. Bull, c.
S. Ausley. John D. Glover, Christopher
COyle and S. E. Rowe. The appli-
cants for policeman were John D.
Glover, Robert Culbreath and Christie
pher COyle.
Robert Culbreath, who was already
acting as policeman, was duly elected,
so as to make his election binding
After this matter was disposed of,
the payment of the Fitzgerald Com
pany was taken up, and on motion of
Alderman Louis w. Duval they were
paid the sum of seven thousand dol
lars as a part payment on their paw
ing contract.

TIME TO CALL A HALT

To the Editor Ocala Banner:
All good citizens of Ocala are de-
lighted to have Improvements made of
any character that improves and beau
titles our city But like our mayor
says in his message to the council.
l think it is time to call a halt"
The work of paving our sidewalks on
Fort King avenue has been a decided
ed but in some instances done at a
great sacrifice. for some were not fl
nancially able to meet this great ex-
penSe. The council advertised for
bids to build cement payements in
places where the property owners
failed TO have the work done. and al
though this work was to be done in
ninety days, it still remains undone.
Why confine all improvements to
one street, when most of the streets
going out from the psblic square are
not only in need of improvements, but
are really an eye-sOre as they are at
present-weeds. grass and other I'M
slightly obstacles and impediments to
pedestrians who walk these streets.
Clean and repair these streets before
requiring more work and expense done
on one street Times are too hard
and money too scarce to require the
residents Of Fort King avenue m on IN
further expense, besides our street is
in good condition and does not need
paving.
Beautify and improve other streets
where so badly needed, and then it
will be time to talk of doing anything
more on Fort King avenue.

that his brother, Ed Tucker, told him
hat there was going TO be trouble,
and he was led 70 make this remark
because Of a conversation BE over
heard between Mr.. Robertson and the

It was claimed by the attorney for
Messrs. Robertson and Spencer that
the Messrs. Tucker contradicted the
statements Of each other. Mr.. Bur
ford further made the statement that
instead OF the evidence showing
conspiracy between Robertson. Spen-
Ger and Dean it rather showed a con
