THE UNION DEPOT FOR ocALA

At the last meeting of the board of
trade the question of a union depot
here was discussed and the secre-
tary was requested to have a petition
signed asking the railroad commits
sion to have a union station placed at
Ocala.
The papers have written a great
deal about this subject and published
letter to the Hon J. D. Robertson
from the railroad commission, turn
ing down the request for union sta
ton. \ good many pepole are under
the impression that this letter was in
regards to the petition of the board
OF trade. This is not the case. The
Woman's Club as we'll as the board
OF trade are still circulating a petition
for a union station, and at the next
meeting of the board of trade, which
takes place on next Friday, August +,
at 5 o'clock, a letter asking the rail
road commission to come here and
look the proposition over, as we'll as
these two petitions, will be forwarded
to them
The board of trade will do all in its
power, with the able assistance of the
Woman's Club, to give Ocala a union
station and won't consider that the
matter is closed until they get re-
suits.

MIR. L. B. Griggs was in from Lynn
Saturday to meet his mother who has
been visiting her daughter in South
Florida. He reports that the Okla
waha river is lower than he has ever
seen it, and that Lake Jumper, near
MIN, is also lower than he has ever
seen it. That the squirrels are very
numerous and are making great in
roads in their depredations upon the
cornfelds especitlly near swamp and
hammock lands.

Mr.. w. Fitzpatrick, of Belleview,
was a Friday visitor. He took note
of the wagon load of potatoes be-
longing to Mrs. Adams of Burbank
and pronounced them a very fine po-
tato. He said that he had a nice
crop also and had been gathering
them off an on since the first of June
and had also disposed of them for a
dollar and a half per bushel. If these
prices could always be obtained farm
ing would become as profitable as
banking under the very best condi-
tons

motive for their action was desire
to absorb the Tennessee Coal ana iron
Co, or whether their chief motive was
! TO save the threatened New York hrm
from failure AMI thereby stop the
panic, was of no concern to me-
Thai both motives We're in their
minds | thought possible and now
think possible. What was the predomi-
nant motive was of no consequence.
Nv concern was that the action should
be taken and the situation saved in
tba interests of the people of the
United states. Most individuals have
short memories, and the events in
Iquestion took place nearly four years
ago; but if any one will look back and
think the matter over seriously and
| in good faith, he will understand that
it was not question of saving any
bank or trust company from failure;
the question was of saving the plain
people, the common people, in all
parts Of the United States from dread
full misery and sufferns; and this was
what my action did.
"One of the questions put to me in1
dicated disbelief. or, to be more ac-
curate, perhaps | should say that II
was meant TO be understood as indi-
eating disbelief. that the action taken
was really efficient in stopping the
panic. AT the time, and for some
months after the panic had been stop
ped, no man would have ven tured 10
express such disbelief unless prepared
to be greeted with derision by every
human being who knew anything
whatever of the actual facts. The
question is not to he treated seriously.
for it cannot be 50 treated. The action
taken was. in my judgment, the only
action that could stop the panic. and
it most certainly was of enormous. and
in all human probability of decisive,
influence in actually stopping it.
