PoSTOFFIcE CLERKS TO MEET
IN OCALA

The third annual state convention
of the united national association of
postoffice clerks will meet IN Ocala
May 10Th and Goth, 1912, as guests
of the Ocala branch, No. 75S.
The convention of 1910 was held in
Jacksonville, and of 1911 in Tampa.
Both conventions were largely at
tended, very successful, and the del
egates and visitors were entertained
in splendid manner by the local
branches.
The Ocala branch of the associa.
ton is making preparations to have
a pleasant and profitable meeting,
and to entertain the delegates and
visitors in manner worthy of Ocala's
name for hospitality.
One feature of the entertainment
is trip down the Silver Springs run
and Oklawaha river on the 'City of
Ocala' in the afternoon of the 30th;
the return trip to be made by moon
light. Refreshments will be served
on board the boat.
While the association is not fire.
quently mentioned in the press, it
embraces in it's membership a large
majority of the postoffice clerks in
the United States, and has a mutual
benefit branch which insures it's mem
bers at moderate rates.
Every postoffice of any size in the
state will be represented at the con-
vention. The citizens of Ocala as
well as the local branch of the U. N.
A. of P o. c., assure every delegate
a pleasant time.

GOVERNOR WILSON'S CAMPAIGN
FUND

Mr.. Arthur l.. Chapman of Water
town, N. Y, in the New York World
of April Sth, says:
81 am for Gov. Wilson for president
and have done considerable work for
him here. This difficulty now con-
fonts me: People are asking: Who
is financing Wilson's campaign
at is a pertinent question and
should be answered at once. Permit
me to respectfully suggest that the
governor invite the newspapers OF
the country to inspect his subscrip-
ton lists and to publish the results of
such inspection.
Gov. Wilson's recent refusal to ac-
cept a campaign contribution from
Thomas F. Ryan made him many
friends, while public knowledge OF
his acceptance of such contribution
would have killed his candidacy.
But if after the refusal of that
money, he is now accepting q do not
believe he isl contributions from sim
liar sources, it is goodbye Wilson if
the people find it out.
''It is democratic doctrine to pub
lish campaign contributions before
election And when the contributions
orc uado RI cocuro nominations the
publication should be made before the
conventions, either state or rational
In other words, the subscription lists
should be open to the public at all
times.
Gov. Wilson has many friends and
no enemies in this locality. But there
are other democrats similarly situat.

AS has been quite freely predicted
for several weeks, ex-President
Roosevelt and Mr.. Woodrow Wilson
made almost a clean sweep in Penn
sylvania. Of course it makes the
friends and adherents of these gentle
men more hopeful, but whatever fate
befalls Woodrow Wilson, it seems al
most impossible for Mr.. Roosevelt to
prevent the nomination of President
Taft on the first ballot If, however,
Roosevelt should stampede the con-
vention and carry off the nomination
it will make the duty more imperative
than ever for the democrats to nom
mate an extremely conservative man.
The colonel is a progressive of the
progressives," and the only way to
head him off is with an entirely diff
ferent type of man.

WE SURRENDER

We give it up. 1t has been shown
that we cannot elect a democratic
president this year. The Wilson par
tisans have proved that Harmon is
the candidate of 1.-The interests" Of
the financial free-booters of the land
and that, therefore, if nominated, he
cannot be elected.
On the other hand, the Harmon PEG
pie have shown that Wilson is a bolt.
er, political fraud, a populist-social-
list masqueradiGg in democratic
clothes, which he has only recently
put on for the purpose of getting the
presidency, and that this being
known he cannot be elected, if nomi-
mated
The partisans of both have agreed
that neither Champ Clark nor Under
wood can win.
Why, then, should we hold con-
vention? Let us disband the democ-
racy and do all we can to encourage
Teddy and LaFollette to revolt and
set up political party of their own.
We can have lots of fun, and that,
too. without cost, melting dissention
within the republican ranks-provoke
them into Kilkenny cat-fght," and
snatch for ourselves some of the fur
as it flies.
Teddy cannot win, of course, but
he is superb apple of discord and
may be able to drive his republican
enemies into doing something for
the good of the country.
By the way, if, under the circum-
stances stated in the beginning here
of, We must go through the foolish
ness of holding a convention, why
not nominate Teddy just through pure
deviltry? He would be glad to do
the fussing and cussing and, if need
be, the lying for us, and we could
have all the fun, and be under no obli-
cation to contribute to a campaign
fund.
The proof that democratic presi-
dent cannot be elected gives us such
regret as to make us feel vengeful,
and we want to cause our republican
friends all the worry and anguish
that political cussedness can devise.
'Rah for Teddy, or any other man
that will goad the elephant good and
proper. Gorda Herald.

DEATH OF GENERAL FRED {
GRANT

The news of the death of General
Frederick Dent Grant sent profound
shock over the entire country. as It
was not generally known that his ILL.,
ness had reached the critical stage.
General Grant was born in 1850, so
was not old enough to have partici-
pated in the civil war. He was, how
ever, as a boy, with his father on sew
eral of his campaigns and had Wv
id recollection d several OF the most
important engagements of that fierce
era in our domestic life.
In 1880 young Grant accompanied
General Grant up the Oklawaha river
to Silver Spring and to Ocala in pri-
vate conveyances. He took a great
interest in the trip and especially so
because he had read the history of
Oseeola and many of the scenes con-
nected with the famous Indians trag-
ic and eventful life were clustered
around Ocala.
Mr.. Albert Arson Graham has re-
turned home from an enjoyable trip
down the east coast.

Mr.. w. {. SMITH, CANDIDATE FOR
COUNTY JUDGE
Ocala, Fla, April IL, 49,


To the Editor Ocala Banner:
Mr.. w. E. Smith is descendant
of an Ocala pioneer family. His I'M
Gle, Mr.. Ben Smith, of Oxford, has
the distinction of being the first white
child born in Ocala. Some branch OF
the family has lived here from that
day to this. The record of the lives
of every member of this family will
bear the closest scrutiny and investi-
cation. If it is possessed of one dis
tinguished trait above another, it IS
that of modesty. While its member
ship have been active in advancing
the claims of others for office this
is the first time that any member OF
it has asked for an office for himself
and this break in the family record
would not be made now if all the
members of the family and many of
their neighbors did not believe that
the one asking this favor at the
hantls of the party to which they
have for so long time adhered SO
faithfully, was not fully competent to
discharge it's duties to the entire sat
isfaction of the people of Marion
county.
Like so many of the men of our ma
ton who have carved their names
high on the scroll of fame, Mr.. Smith
was early thrown upon his own re-
sources, and although having a grow
ing family on his hands, he took a
course of law in the correspondence
schools, assiduously burning the mid
night oil, and stood such an excellent
examination before the supreme court
of the state that that distinguished
body of jurists complimented him
upon his achievement.
He is just at that age when he
thinks more of feme than he does Of
fortune and if elected he will bend
all of his energies in making a rec
ord for himself that will justify the
wisdom of his friends in committing
to his keeping so important an office.
Mr.. Smith is pleasant and affable
and wears a smile so CHEEKY and be
nignant that it entities him to be call
ed an apostle of sunshine
