To Mark the Streets

Whereas, 1t has been many years
since the streets of Ocala were prop
erly marked, with the names at cor
ners and intersections. since which
time most of the name signs have fall
len off and most Of the streets are I'M
named, as far as a stranger could tell.
Furthermore, within the past few
years many of the streets and ave
nues have been renamed. and even
our own citizens, in many cases, do
not know their names: and.
Whereas, nearly all of the houses Of
the city and all Of those built in re-
cent years are without numbers, and
those numbers that are in place We're
put up without any regard to the sys-
TEN in vogue of numbering houses in
cities: and.
Whereas, it is becoming more neces-
sary every day with the growth of the
city and the coming of new citizens, to
properly number our houses and bust
ness blocks and place the proper
signs at the street corners, bearing
the names or numbers of the streets
and avenues Of the city, that one. he

The main objections OF the insurg-

1t creates an unnecessary com

against orders Of the interstate com

machinery Is ample. The commerce
court will cost about $500 900 a year.
If the court Is intended TO be any

broaden the present judicial power to
review orders of the commission. The
Insurgents and certainly the shippers
are opposed to this.
