4 DELICATE OPERATION

Not only his physicians and friends,
but medical men everywhere will be
interested in an operation performed
Friday on Rev. Lawrence Jones, ven
cradle minister of Weirsdale.
Mr. Jones is SO years old. but vigOr-
Gus and we'll preserved. He has how
ever been a sufferer from rupture
made As years ago. The other day, an
accident caused the rupture to be en-
larged and he was threatened with
strangulated hernia, which meant
death in a day or so.
His physician, Dr. Henry, feared to
bring his patient to the hospital. on
account of the long trip and the inevi-
table jolting. SO he telegraphed for an
Ocala physician, who answered the call
Friday morning.
1t happened that the Ocala physician
had just performed a similar operation
on a young colored man, and his eXper-
fence in this case was of the utmost
value While it was a risky thing to
operate so far from the hospital, and
many things that might be needed, it
was decided that it was the only thing
to do, and with the full approval of the
patient, the work was done.
At the latest report from Mr.. Jones,
he was resting easy and had every
chance Of recovery. His own courage
and temperate life go far to cOunteract
much of the risk of an operation at his
iage. His careful nurse is his wife,
herself a practicing physician. Several

1t Is human nature for the victorious
to want the federal Offices
which ever since 1893 have been held
by republicans. The latter deserve no
sympathy, for they have had and held
the said Offices as the spells of poliu-
cal war, and have no right to Kick
now that they are the losers
However, as the Star has said be
fore, Woodrow Wilson was elected for
a higher purpose than to hand out pie
to the hungry. His election was an
expression of a desire on the part Of
the people for better government.
When Wilson takes his seat next
March, and when democratic congress
men assemble to deal with problems
that vitality affect all the jewellers in
this vast country, they should not be
annoyed or overburdened by the I'M
portunities of office seekers.
Very few men, no matter what party
is in power, can hold office, but the en-
tire people are concerned in the gov
eminent.
The democrats will have a longer
lease of power if they refrain from ar
undignified scramble for office. The
Star doesn't think any faithful and eff
fcient republican should be turned on,
of office until his term expires. There
are many-some of them in this state
who should be removed a once fol
cause-but the great majority shOult
be allowed to take their time.
The Star believes that this policy viii
best suit our senators and representa-
tives, who in all democratic states viii

of federal patronage. They will hav
great problems to grapple with afte
