WHAT ONE MAN CAN DO

The man who is dissatisfied with
the way the affairs OF his city are
conducted, and spends his time cuss.
ing out the administration, could, if
he would. remedy many of the evils
be complains of, says the Tampa
Times. He can keep his own premis-
es neat, tidy and sanitary, and not
only be repaid in health of his family,
but his example may inspire his
neighbOrs to do likewise.
He can build sidewalks and beauti-
fly the space fronting his home. He
can clean up that section of the
street-to the middle of the road
and keep his bitches in shape to car
ry off surface water. There IS no
law against daily sweeping off the
sidewalk fronting his store and hav-
ing the rubbish carted away in his
own delivery wagons. He can clean
up the alleys in the rear of his home
or store, and nobody will object. He
can observe all the city ordinances
first, and then have a right to talk
about his neighbor who violates them.
In his off time he can study the
needs of his city and when election
day comes around cast his vote and
his influence for men who are quail
fed to fill the Offices for which they
are candidates, regardless of whether
they are party men-or no party men
or whether they are Bill, Tom or
Jack; and the fact that they are good
fellows and mixers" need not over
balance all his better judgment.
If he will attend to his share in
shaping the course of affairs there
will be less to find fault with.
The one man is every man.

The Atlanta Journal says that there
is scarcely commodity in general use
which is not the subject of an unjust
discrimination as against the interior
cities of Georgia. 1t is so in Florida,
perhaps more so than in any other
state in the Union, but in every state
the interior cities are made the tar
gets of discrimination and every news
paper printed in the interior cities
should join forces and keep up a hot
and intrepid campaign against these
unjust and unwarranted discrimina-
tions. 1t must not be forgotten that
these things come from the decisions
of men in office and the remedy lies in
the hands of the people. The voice of
the people can be made potential.
Keep up the fight and these discrimi-
nations will in time be adjusted.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP VS. PRI-
VATE FRANCHISES
Chicago, July IS, 1909.

Chicago, July Is, 1903.
To the Editor Ocala Banner:
Dear Sir-Your city is yet young.
but as it grows older many franchis-
es will be asked for, and in your ca
gerness for improvements. without
expense to the general public. fran
chises will be granted to private cor
portions, which should remain In the
municipality as source Of revenue.
and as a means OF reducing the cost
of living.
But some may say: How are you
going to procure these needed i'm
provements without private capital?'
To each let me say that the city's
credit is always as good as an indi-
viduaTs, or a combination of indiyid-
uals, and bonds of the city are more
easily sold, and at better rates, than
stocks of private corporations. so
when in need of public utilities do not
be afraid to issue bonds. own and
control the utility and let the whole
people share in the profits, and not
be forced to pay large salaries and
percentages on a watered stock 10
private corporation. You will. by
keeping these public utilities with the
municipality, get better and cheaper
service. for there would be a com
munity of interest. Every tax payer
would become, as IL were, a stock
holder, and all would be mutually in
terested; but a corporation. owning
the utility, would be interested only
in giving such service and making
such rates as would yield the largest
dividends. A common-sense view OF
this question, and a desire only to
serve the interest of the public. ought
to influence every city council or
board of aldermen to preserve TO the |
people all those rights and not throw
them out to corporations that seek 20 |
speculate off the people
AS only one illustration Of the ben
eft of municipal ownership. I hand |
YOU clipping which | would be pleas |
ed to have you publish herewith for /
The benefit of your readers. Why |
not profit by the experience Of 9th /
ers? Yours truly.

JUSTICE AND THE DOLLAR

1t is not too much to say that the
failure of the jury before whom Cas-
tenge FicarrOtta was tried on the
charge of murder to arrive at a YER
dict was a great disappointment to
the community. However, it was
very generally agreed that the jury
was above the average of petit juries
being made up almost entirely of in
telligent farmers, and it is not our
province to criticize them. But as a
result of the mistrial the state will be
put to the heavy expense of another
trial.-Tampa Times.
1t does not seem to us that in a
case of this kind the question of cost
should be considered. A mans neck
should not be put in jeopardy when,
to mete out justice to him under the
forms of law will require the expendi-
ture of few dollars. 1t occurs to us
that the two things ought not to be
mentioned in the same breath. We
remember a similar case in this coun-
ty. An unfortunate wretch was con-
demned to die, and the gallows had
already been erected. On the day be-
fore TIE execution the supreme court
intrefered and stay of proceedings
was issued. A local contemporary
roundly abused the supreme court
because the county had already gone
to the expense of erecting the gal
lows. The mans guilt or innocence
was not taken into account at all

snot PICTURES of women holding up
their skirts while crossing the streets

thrown these pictures upon canvas,
and says that a woman who lifts her
skirts to her knees must be put on a
