4 CARD OF THANKS

The Ocala football team takes this
means of showing its appreciation and
expressing it's thanks to the business
men and their other friends in Ocala
who were SO kind as to help them out
when they We're called upon by the
team for money or anything else it
needed. Without this help and sup
port it would have been impossible to
have had any of the games that were
played in Ocala. The team also thanks
Mr.. Louis Savarese for his good work
as its coach. Without him there would
have been no team. We only hope next
year we can claim enough victories to
cause the defeats of this year to be
forgotten. Ocala Football Team.

Cotton Bills Given More Tina

The time for accepting across the sea American cotton bills of lading without guaranty has been extended to December 3l, and by that time the United States Senate should be asked to explain why it is holding up the Stevens bill, perfected and passed by the House. This bill makes interstate railroads responsible for all cotton bills issued by them.
 This entire matter will soon settle it. self It will be apt to peter out by de- grees and be no more heard of. In the meanwhile the Senate should be urged to pass the Stevens bill. The contest over this bill is one between the farmers of the south and the railroads.
 The guaranty plan through the organi- zation of a foreign guaranty company is, many think. likely to die even if Sir Edward H. Holden is quoted as saying that the plan has been ldNofaoly ie ceived "by the interior bankers of this country" It would trouble him to name any interior bankers in the cotton belt that favor the plan. Cotton is gold and the farmers know it, and they will sell their cotton to strong firms that might consider a guaranty of their bills an in- suit Sir Edwards mission will prove failure unless he has something better than his guaranty company to offer the producers of this country.
 The producers should meet his offer with an offer of the Stevens bill and then they should take steps to have that bill lifted out of the pigeon-hole in which it was placed by special interests.

SOUTHERN POPULATION GAINS

The Florida Times-Union believes that these figures indicate a strong south ward turn to the tide of immigration. This southward trend Of population" 1t says, Ifs shown by the returns from group of contiguous states west of the Mississippi. Oklahoma has more than doubled in population, increasing from 79o,391 in 1900 to 1,651, ,951 in 1910. That this has not been at the expense of Texas Is shown by the fact that the countries of that state thus far reported show a gain of more than 50 per cent, and estimates based on this gain place the total gain of Texas at 100000 While Texas, the state south of Oklahoma, has made phenomenal gain, Missouri, the state of the northeast, has almost stood still, the population having increasedN ' from 3,1o6,665 to 3.2ssSS5, gain of only 1S6,670 or per cent in ten years What Oklahoma may have drawn from Kansas and Nebraska does not yet appear"
 The vital statistics of these southern cities and states ought to show, approxi- mately at least, what proportion of their increased population has been due to births and what to immigration. It is easy to believe that, with some excep- tions-like that of Oklahoma, which has been peopled from every state in the upion-the increases are traceable quite as much to births and immigration from nearby points combined as to immigra- tion from far-off localities. The indus- tries of cities like Jacksonville, Tampa, Birmingham and so on have attracted myriads of people from nearby counties and states, and the birth rate in all these great industrial centers must have increased enormously since 1900. There has, of course, been steady inflow of people from far-off regions, but the ex- pansion of southern industry during the past decade must be given full credit for the gains in population.

Perfected Aer.pllleS

Aviatsr Moissant, who flew from Paris to London in six hours says we will shortly fly in aeroplanes with 300 horse power at speeds from 100 to 15o miles an hour. This would perhaps be the per fected airship of the period, and Charles M. Schwab calls for it's construction even if royalties would have to be paid on it to the Wright brothers as pioneers in the art of flying.
 The day of big meets and big purses will soon be ended. and then aviators and builders and inventors will begin to think lp improvements and put them in prac- tice. The period of experimentation and hard work in the factory is near at hand. The entire problem of stability is to be worked out, and the problem of gasoline transportation and of relief in the air, and many other problems are to be solved. These problems will have full opportunity as soon as the circus period of aviation Is ended.
