JAMES W. PERKINS
A Man Of the People Nominated to the
senate from VoIusia County

The famous James E. Alexander has
met his first defeat. After serving
Nolusia county several times in the
house of representatives, he aspired
to a seat in the state senate, and would
have in all probability succeeded had
not James W. Perkins wanted the sa me
position.
If any man has a right to the title
Of a man of the people. it is James W.
Perkins. His boyhood was beset with
as great difficulties as that of Lincoln
or Garfield, and he is not lacking in
the homely wisdom of the one the
toilacquired learning of the other.
Mr.. Perkins arrived in DeLand
twenty years ago. and took moder
ately- paid position in one of the stores
of that city. \ year or two later he
was appointed deputy sheriff. While
holding these minor positions, he was
steadily acquiring a knowledge of the
law, and in course of time was admit
ted to the bar After some years Of
indie pendent practice, he was appoint
ed prosecuting attorney of the Nolusia
county circuit of criminal record, and
two years ago was nominated Judge of
that court. winning the nomination by
good majority from the veteran
Judge 1. a. stewart MS last victory :
over the shrewd and popular Alex
ander marks Perkins one of the
most prominent men in the state. and
makes it evident that the office of
governor is not beyond his hopes.
Judge Perkins is a politician of the
higher class On his first coming 10
VOlusia county, he allied himself with
the Influences of law and order and
has always remained with them. He is
faithful to his friends but doesn't be-
leve in evading or transgressing the
law to pay political debts. He Is a
man of quiet tastes and hometown G
| instincts, and is not dependent on Of
| flee for a livelihood. NoluSia county
| has taken a step forward by his cleo
| ton to the state senate, and if that
| body was made of such men, there
| would be little probability of anything
crooked getting through it.

TO MAKE WAR ON INSECTS

The Ocala Woman's Club cooperating
with the city council will inaugurate
it's war on flies and mosquitoes tomor
row. The club has induced the coun-
Gil to give them a special sanitary in
spector and in connection with City
Sanitary Inspector G. w. Cleveland,
will endeavor to SO instruct the peo-
pie Of the city that the sanitation of
the town will be ideal this summer. 1t
Is the duty of every housekeeper to
cooperate with these good people who
are laboring SO diligently and unset
fshly for the health Of the town.
Without their cooperation little can be
done to better the sanitary condition
of the city: with it, wonders can be
accomplished and the fly and mosquito
exterminated. If every one will CO.
operate in this commendable work, we
will look upon the neatness and clean
Illness of our city with pride and the
stranger within our gates will ap-
plaud US for it. Let us make this a
summer of ideal sanitary conditions
and health promoting.

HELP THE ICE MAN
TO REST SUNDAY

The American people are an eXacting
people; what they pay for, especially
in domestic service. they demand the
full pound of flesh Take Ocala as an
example, the article that of ice. 1t Is
not necessary to dilate on it's comfort
ing, cooling. refreshing and preserv-
ing properties. IT Is no longer lux
ury, as II was few years in our
homes. We insist on it as much as We
do for air and water, but on reflection
are we considerate enough for those
who have to perform the service of its
distribution. especially the Sunday
delivery. Here are men who are up
way before the sun and whose duties
keep them busy till the day has done :;
their task is no light or easy one. 1t is
one Of intense labor and hard lifting
all day long. not only six days of the
week, but Sunday too when the the
majority of US take a rest, much
needed rest. Now here comes a plea
for the overtaxed and overworked ice
delivery man. Can't our people light
en- these mems labor and not be incon-
venienced suffer in their comforts
thereby? Could not most Of these con-
sumers get their Sunday supply of ice
on Saturday and thereby give the ice
man also a partial day OF rest? One of
them told the writer Monday that Sun
day he delivered 1920 pounds Of ice
Most consumers have refrigerators and
ice chests that easily hold a hundred
pounds These replenished Saturday
afternoon, would release the ice man
from calling around Sunday morning
The same with those who take so or -
pounds at time BY this method the
consumer would confer a boon on the
man who must work seven days in the
week and knows no Sunday. Think q
moment-put yourself in his place, and
then see how the proposition appeals
to you. Be considerable Of others; dc
as you wish others should do to you
The ice delivery man can be relieved
but II Is for you to say how it can be
done. Show the manhood and woman
hood that should prompt your actor
to lessen the toll and labo- Of those
less fortunate. The writer in the year:
that he has taken ice has never asked
an ice man to replenish his ice chse
on Sunday. Try and do likewise Thi:
Is a plea for the ice delivery man.

GENERAL. PRESENTNENT
OF THE GRAND JURY
In the Circuit Court of the Fifth Judi
cial Circuit of the State of Florida

In the Circuit Court of the Fifth Judi
cial Circuit of the State of Florida,
Spring Term, 1910.
To the Honorable w. S Bullock.
Judge of said court: We. the grand
jury. empanelIed for the spring term
of the court. having completed our in
vestigation. beg leave to submit this
our general presentment
We are inclined to believe that the
commission of crime in the county of
Marion for the last six months has
decreased. and is less than
that of previous periods between the
of the fall and spring
terms.
We have found only twenty-seven
indictments at the present term. the
majority of which are for minor of
lenses, there being only two murder
leases. We have found indictments in
cases only where we believe a convic-
ltion can be had on the evidence sub
mitted TO
We have visited all of the county of
fees. and We lind them all in good con
ldition We have had no complaints
from the county officers as to their
quarters, nor have any of them called
Ito our attention any matter concern
|! ing their offices or official duties. as to
which they desired TO make COM
plants.
We visited the jail. and find the
same in good sanitary condition. but
the jail building itself is in very bad
repair We recommend the building
of new jail. we do not believe the
old one could be repaired to any ad-
vantage. The walls Of same appear to
be spreading apart. and have been
braced together with iron rods. The
iron fence around the Jail is in very
unsafe condition. the posts in some
places having rusted completely in two.
| We recommend that windows be
placed in the west side gallery of the
court house. This is part Of the
room set apart for the colored popu-
lation. and there being no adequate
ventilation. it becomes excessively hot
in that portion of the building on some
days. and causes noisome odors to pen
citrate in all portions of the court
troom.
We notice that the plaster in the
lgrand jury room has fallen down in
one place. and we recommend that this
be repaired.
| The court house grounds are kept in
fairly good condition. but we notice
with scraps of waste paper, and other
trash. We also notice that some OF
the cabbage trees which We're set Out
in the yard have died. and have decay
ed, and are falling down. The court
house grounds they are now arrang-
ed, If properly kept. are very attract
i've, and are a valuab advertisement
for the city and county, but theil
value an advertisement will depend
IalmoSt entirely on the manner il
which they are taken care of, and We
Istrongly recommend that those in au.
thority be required to see that tn.
waste paper be kept off the lawn. anC
all dead trees and other rubbish be re.
moved.
| We notice that the ciStern in tn,
court house yard is allowed to over
flow in wet seasons. We think that 4
should be so arranged that the supply
pipe could be disconnected from tn.
Cistern when it has been filed.

year-Old son, Ebert. On August 30th,
1909, they lost little girl, Mamie. and
Sept. 4th, little L. w, Jr., was taken
from them. In less than one short
week, two of their children were TAX
en- away. And as though their cup of
sorrow was not full on the 9Th of May,
1910, their only boy was accidently
shot, from the effects of which he died.
He was brought to Ocala to the hos
pital and was given all the care and
attention that kind hands and loving
hearts could bestow. Mr.. and Mrs
Wilson wish to thank the people of
Ocala for their kindnesses. especially
