ARMY MEN AT OUTS

Adjutant General Fred c. Afnsworth.
Of the army, has been relieved from
duty at the War Department at Wash
ington and allowed to retire on half
pay.
What the charges are have not been
announced. but 1t is understood that
they refer to the conduct OF the gen.
eral regarding discipline in the army.
Serious friction long has existed be-
tween the adJutant generals office and
the general stan. and the crisis came
when Secretary Stimson aided with the
latter. Matters were brought to an is
sue by . report made last week by
General Ainsworth to the secretary of
war In connection with the muster and
pay rolls. and Mr.. Stimson felt that the
adjutant general had used terms that
questioned his own integrity.
The record shows that General Aims

That editorial in yesterdays Star
caused w. L. Colbert to wake up. and
he came in the office this morning
with his announcement, which appears
elsewhere. Mr.. Colbert has been in
the tax collectors office, first as a dep
uty, now as collector, for the last
eight years. He is a good citizen, a
superb accountant and perfectly IA
miliar with the affairs of the county.
1t isn't likely that anyone could be
found who would fill the office any
better, and it would be easy to find
some one who would fill it worse. The
Star takes pleasure in presenting Mr..
Colberts claims to the voters.

TREMENDOUS FIRE IN TEXAS

In the wake of the most destructive
fire in the history Of Houston, Texas
smouldering wreckage now covers an
area about one and half miles in
length, and varying in width from 200
yards to half q mile IN the northeast
ern section OF the city. More than a
dozen of the city's most important in
dustria1 enterprises are In ruins; two
hundred or more dwelling houses and
store buildings are in ashes and ap-
proximately 1000 persons are home
less. An accurate statement of the
monetary loss is not yet possible but
the most conservative estimates are
that the amount will reach at least
100000 The insurance carried will
not exceed forty per cent. Except for
a few who suffered minor burns and
bruises no casualties attended the fire.

TO THE OCCASION

The Star is afraid that the people OF
Ocala have got properly estimated the
Importance of the meeting OF the
State Good Roads Association in their
city next week. And yet. IL its de-
1iberations have the results they are
entitled to, 1t will bring a greater
prosperity to this community and the
state than any convention that has
ever been held in the town.
Railroads and big rivers are the ar
teries of travel and commerce, but the
country roads, that the common peo-
pie travel every day-that they use not
only in taking the produce to market,
and carrying goods home, but in visit
ing from house to house-are the veins
that keep the Hfe-blood of communica-
ton coursing thru the commonwealth.
And In the same measure that unclog-
ged veins help to make the healthy.
happy man or woman, SO clear. we'll
built roads will help to make the
healthy body polite Easy communi-
cation promotes prosperity, prevents
misunderstanding and consequently
adds to happiness. It Is one Of the
things that is good for all-not only
the man In the high-powered car, but
the ploddfng teamster and even the
humble pedestrian.
1t will therefore be proper and nee
essary for the people of Ocala to do
all in their power to make this con-
vention a success. The time Is short,
as the sessions will begin next Tues
day, the 9th. This is matter that is
particularly up to the board OF trade.
That body should meet not later than
tomorrow evening and set the pace for
the citizens. who will not be slow to
carry out any program that may be
indicated to them. The members of
the association will come here to work
more than to have a good time, but
they should not lack for any attention
that may make their stay pleasant and
send them away with a good opinion
Of our city and county.
The officers OF the association are
as follows: J. G. Dampier, Gainesville
president; r. o. Miller. Jacksonville

absence. the new governor being averse
to ostentation. There was but

newly elected state officers and few
close friends. Governor Hunt, who be-

AN AvIATOR,s
THRILLING EXPERIENCE


Earl Sandt, a youthful aviator, the
first man to fly over the Great Lakes
from the United States to Canada,
came to grief ten miles out on the
lake from Northeast, Penn, Tuesday
while attempting a return flight to the
American shore. While high in the
air and twenty miles east of his course
the engine of his biplane stopped. For
a time he glided toward the ice-cov-
cred lake, but suddenly the machine
turned turtle and he was buried. un-
conscious in the wreckage. How long
he remained in this condition Sandt
does not know. When he recovered he
was literally saturated with blood
from many cuts. Aided by a pocket
compass, Sandt walked ten miles to
the American shore, landing near
Erie, at 10 o'clock at night. He was
found staggering along the shore by
boys who were skating. and carried to

STATE IS NOT LOSER
IN PRICE SHORTAGES

Salt Lake City. Utah, Aug. 8
The state has received all moneys
due it from Carbon county with the
exception of two small amounts dis
covered since the state auditor check
ed up, and the alleged misappropri-
alton of funds by county officials in
the southern county will not cause
any loss to the state. This announce
ment was made yesterday by State
Auditor Jesse ID. Jewkes.
The money still due from the coun-
ty is about SIC. Claims for the
amount have been filed by the state
and the money will be secured, the
auditor explains.
Mr.. Jewkes has been asked why
he, as state auditor. had not discov-
cred the conditions alleged to exist
in the Carbon county offices. He eX-
planned yesterday that he discovered
early in the year that there was
laxness and inattention to duties Of
the Offices by the auditor and treas
urer, but attributed it to lack of
knowledge. He and his deputies
have have experienced considerable
trouble in getting the reports re-
quired by law from the officials in
Carbon county ever since they have
been in Office.
AS early as March last, Mr.. Jewkes
says, he went before the county
commissioners of Carbon county and,
in the presence of the treasurer and
auditor. made complaint of the lex
ness with which their work was be-
ing attended to and suggested an au-
dit of the accounts.
The commissioner admitted, the
state auditor says, that they had
not received reports on time and an
nounced at the time that an audit
would be made. They then asked
Mr.. Jewkes to recommend an auditor
and he named j. w. NJ. Edmunds,
the man who has brought to light the
alleged misappropriation of funds by
the county officers.
Mr.. Jewkes explained that it is
the duty of the state auditor to check
up and audit the revenue accounts of
counties only in so far as the state
is interested in them.

Associated Press.
New York, Aug. 3.-In a letter
written to Julian Harris of Atlanta,
Ga, editor of Uncle Remus' Magazine
and son of the late Joel Chandler
Harris, Colonel Roosevelt expresses
his view on the position of the ne
gro in national politics and the rep
resentation of negro delegates in the
convention of the progressive party
in Chicago.
In part, Colonel Roosevelt writes
''In pursuance of our conversation,
write you this letter.
MANY letters, dealing with the
subject on which you spoke to me.
have been sent to me within the last
few days. Those written by men
living in the north usually ask me to
insist that we get, from the south,
colored delegates to the national pro-
gressiYe convention. Those written
by citizens of the south ask that |
declare that the new party shall be
white mans party. | am not able
to agree to either proposal.
in this country we cannot per-
manently succeed except upon the
basis of treating each man on his
worth as a man. We can fulfill our
high mission among the nations of
the earth, we can do lasting good to
ourselves and to all mankind only
If we so act that the humblest
among us, so long as he behaves in
straight and decent fashion, has
guaranteed to him under the law his
right to enjoy the fruits of his own
honest labor, and his right to the
pursuit of happiness in his own way,
| so long as he does not treSDass on the
rights of others.
81 believe that the progressive
movement should be made in the in
terest of honest, Industrious. law
abiding colored men, just as 1t is in
the interest OF every industrious
honest, law-abiding white man. ]
further believe that the surest way
to render the movement impotent in
| those regions of the south where the
colored man is most numerous would
be to try to repeat the course that
has been followed by the republican
party in those districts for so many
years
