The sheriff has been working un-
der great disadvantages. Not only
is he handicapped in this ten-rol
proposition, which vests an immense
burden on him and his assistants, but
his quarters are cramped and there
is inadequate space to turn around
in his office.
He is compelled during a portion
of the taX-collecting period to have
a line of the work performed in his
residence for want of space in l..e
office.
Too much praise for the very com,
plete and careful record he has made

all receipts are entered, and from
which he makes deposits, or turn,

TERMS OF PEACE
BETwEEN ITALY AND TURKEY

A dispatch from Ouchy purports to
give the terms of the peace treaty
agreed upon by the Italian and Turk
ish delegates, which not await ratifi-
cation by the two governments, and
1t is expected to lead to an immediate
armistice. They are:
First-Absolute sovereignty of Italy
in Libya, without, however, formal
recognition there of Italy by Turkey.
Second-The free exercise of relig-
ious authority by the khaliff, as in
Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Third-Turkey to withdraw her reg
ular troops from Libya.
Fourth-Italy to pay an indemnity
equivalent to Libya's contribution to
the Ottoman treasury.
Fifth-Restitution of the captured
islands by Turkey with safeguards for
the Christian population.
Sixth-No indemnity payable by
either side toward the cost of the war
Seventh-Reestablis of former
diplomatic and commercial relations
between the two nations.
1t is too bad that Rhodes and the
other islands Italy has captured in the
Aegean should go back into the hands
of the Turks. They would be much
better off in the possession of Italy
which nation could easily hold them
but for the jealousy of the other pow

0cALA JUR|SI APPROVED
The Florida Audubon Society Appre-
ciafes the Action of Judge
Joseph Bell

The recent action of Judge Joseph
Bell of Ocala in fining a negro 500
and costs for violation of the game
law in shooting quail out of season,
has called forth many expressions Of
satisfaction from sportsmen and all
who favor the rigid protection of Bob
White.
Especially does the Florida Audubon
Society, through the medium of the
press, desire to publicly thank Judge
Bell for his timely action. Since its
organization the society has published
and widely distributed an excellent
leaflet setting forth the great value OF
the quail as an insect destroyer. We
all when the law allows it to be killed
enjoy it as a table delieacy, so that we
feel encouraged TO hear of anything
that is done TO further its rigid pro-
lection out of season.
1t is to be hoped that other officials
of other counties will follow the ex-
ample of Judge Bell and so earn the
gratitude Of sportsmen and all who
love the CHEEKY Bob White.

MUST BE GOOD FOR THE MANY

DeLand and Volusia county cannot
pay too much attention to their streets
and roads. Nothing will attract the
tourist and winter visitor today as
much as good, hard, smooth roads, and
the emphasis should be on the smooth.
The question of a hard road Is not so
important as that of smooth road.
The News believes that miles OF good
roads is better than blocks of fine
roads. Vitrified brick, macadam, wood
blocks. are all very well and are alb
solutely necessary to large city
where traffic is heavy, but in small
town, or for country road, nothing
Is better than mari and shell, clay, etc.
The yearly interest on a brick road 20
feet wide, Is about $1,000, without add
ing a cent of cost for maintenance. A
good shell road can be maintained in
splendid condition for 5000 per mile
per year. while the interest at per
cent on $4,000 first cost is only $3.50
per year. or $500 per year on a first
cost of $4,000 per mile. Let's have
good roads and plenty OF 'em, and let
the other fellows have fine" roads and
all the bonds they can fioat.-DeLand
