THE WiTER WORKS question

Mr. (. p. Rentz offered a motion that
the board Of trade ask the city council
to purchase the Ocala water works
system "a the price fixed by the board
of appraisers.
A general discussion followed. which
took up most Of the evening. and the
motion finally prevailed after everyone
had had an opportunity 10 express his
opinion. The vote stood IS in favor of
the purchase and against it.-Ocala
Evening Star
The above is no doubt an uninten-
tional, but nevertheless a palpable
error. copy of Mr.. Rentz's resolution
is furnished Us by the secretary of the
Board Of Trade. 1t will be seen that
the resolution before it was put upon
its passage was considerably modified.
The following is the modified form OF
the resolution as il was passed:
That it is the opinion Of the Board
of Trade of Ocala that the city council
would be wise TO purchase the water
works Of Ocala If, in their opinion, the
price as fixed by the arbitrators is
fair.'-Banner.
The Star acknowledges the error and
thanks the Banner for the correction.
The Star published the sense of Mr.
Rentz's original resolution. A general
discussion took place on the motion
which consumed two hours and nearly
every one in the room had say on ii
1t was finally passed with the amend
ment: IF in their opinion the price
fixed by the arbitratOrs is fair" The
reporter failed to correct his notes and
forgot the amendment entirely in writ

CIRCUS VERSUS COUNTY FAIR

The Star has ben requested to re-
print the following from the Banner
and does so with full endorsement:
The advance agent has visited Ocala
and Marion county, and the bill posters
have followed him and plastered every
conspicuous building and point OF
vantage where the snowy and catchy
advertising matter of the great circus
could be displayed with the announce
ment: 1.-THE Circus is Coming! The Cir
Gus is Coming!
Every boy and a great many of the
girls are saving their pennies, and
looking forward with the keenest an
ticipation, and the grown-ups, too, no
doubt will be numerously represented
at the coming of the Most Superb Ag-
gregation of Spectacular Features Ever
Seen on this Mundane Sphere"
| This enthusiasm is all right, and we
would not deprive the little ones OF the
pleasures derived from seeing the cir
Gus. We carry the bright spots of re-
membrance derived from the same
source in our own lives-but the cir
Gus is gone in a day, and with 1t the

LESSONS ON THE MAINE ELECTION
We the New York World:

Saws the New York World:
There is cold comfort in the Maine
election returns for any party.
The defeat of Gov. Pla'sted by the
Taft-Roosevelt coalition is democrat
ic disappointment. But the adverse
plurality is so small that 1t is certain
to disappear in the November elections
when the partnership is dissolved and
there are three presidential tickets in
the field
The situation in Maine differed
greatly from the situation in Vermont.
In Vermont, which has an overwhelm-
ing republican majority, the Roosevelt
party nominated a straight ticket ana
made a hard fight for the offices. IN
Maine, which elected a democratic
governor and a democratic legislature
in 1910, the Roosevelt republicans join
ed with the Taft republicans 10 get
possession of the state patronage. The
Roosevelt saints had no computations
whatever about allying themselves
with the Taft burglars. Mr.. Roosevelt
kept out of Maine. His supporters said
nothing against Mr.. Taft during the
campaign. and Mr.. Taft's supporters
said nothing against Mr.. Roosevelt
The cohesive power of 400 state jobs
overcame all republican dissension.
In November, however, both factions
of the republican party will be fight
ing for the organization and the spoils
The total republican vote cast yester'
day is big enough to carry the state
when it is consolidated, but when il !:
divided between Roosevelt and Taft
each republican faction is hopeless
minority and Names six electoral vote
will be cast for Wilson.
One thing more is demonstrated b.
the Maine returns: The republican
party is much stronger than had bee1
supposed. Popular disgust with ii
especially in the east, is far less ag
gressive than ii ought 10 be. Tn
