 The record this year is as a result of this work better than it has been for years. Secretary George II. Allen oi the commission has kept thorough ly in touch with the situation. and any signs of trouble in any section has been thus promptly stamped out
 The next annual meeting of the commission will be held in Phoenix on June 10 next This was decided by Mir. Hennessy and Mir. Allen at the conferences held in the city dur ing the past two days. The last meeting was held in April 1912, this shortly after the appointment of the new commission but it was thought best this year to make a definite date for the wind-up Of the years business. and to keep to it. Fiscal years in many sections end with the end of the month Of June. The state fiscal year does. so it was decided to have the sheep commission year end thus also.

oCALA PROUD OF HER HOTEL

Florida is fast becoming a state OF
magnificent hotels, several. new ones
having been opened lately, and more
are either projected, or are in the
process of erection. Ocala is justly
proud of her new hostelry, "Harring-
ton Hail. which was thrown open to
the public with great eclat on the
29th of December. The management
invited the city in general to inspect
all the superb appointments and the
up to date arrangements of this hotel,
and all during the opening day there
was a stream of delighted visitors.
The hotel opened with a goodly show
ing on the register, and so many
rooms are engaged that the manage
ment is almost ready to report a full
house.-OrlandO Reporter-Star.

Resolutions
Whereas, By the election of Wood
row Wilson to the presidency of the
United States, the democratic party
has come into power; and, whereas,
no appointments have been definitely
made and confirmed for the district
attorneyship for the southern district
of Florida, we, the Ocala Bar, in meet
ing assembled, indorse for the ap-
pointment of district attorney for the
southern district of Florida, our fell
low toWnsman and practitioner, Ed
win W. Davis, feeling assured that
he is qualified in every way to fill the
position ably
Further, be it resolved, That copy
of these resolutions be forwarded to
each of the United States senators
and to each of the congressman rep
resenting this state in congress.
Further, be it resolved, That a

duct the campaign for the purpose of
furthering the candidacy of Mr.. Dr.
Wis.

chairman of the meeting and Mr..
Emanuel Martin was elected secre-
tary.
Practically the entire bar of the

favorable consideration among the
members of the bar over the whole
state, as we'll as receiving the unan-
imous endorsement of his fellow at

Mr.. Bayles says:
Mark my words, there will be
whole tracts of land in Florida clear
ed up and stocked with this red top
exclusively for its marvellous feeding
qualities. Some men who have not
discovered the value of this feed have
complained that it overran their
groves. l tell them if that is the case
to cut down their groves"

THE CUSTOM OF CENTURIES
ABOLISHED

A late special from China says that
for both men and women of China
have come under the disapproval of
the cabinet of the republic is an edict
issued calling upon women to aban-
don their trousers for the occidental
skirt and the men to give up their
comfortable loose clothes for the sack
business and conventional evening
clothes of the Caucasian. A copy Of
the edict has been received by Yung
Vow, consul for the Chinese republic,
together with pictures of clothing
prescribed for both sexes. The YER
nacular papers printed the edict and
illustrations recently.
The business derby and the formal
silk hat are the only two mentioned
for men. Nothing is said of headgear
for the women, who aside from hair
ornaments never have worn head Gov
erings.
Men are allowed high calfskin and
low tan shoes, while the women are
limited to high shoes to suit their
taste.
Besides shoes, only three articles
of dress are prescribed for women.
One, a loose-ftting garment on the
lines of kimono, for house wear. An
and shirtwaist evidently are suppos-
ed to complete her wardrobe.
At the expressed wish of President
Yuan Shi Kai the edict, which was
issued several days ago, was held
until New Years for publication.

Congressman Roddenberry has Civ
en- out an interesting interview al
Thomasville, in which he makes the
statement that appointments of post
masters under the new democratic
administration will not be made ex-
cept as the terms of present encum.
bents expire.
We think this course will be gen
orally approved as one that is wise
and right. The spells system in pol
itics is rapidly passing, and we think
it would be an unfortunate step for
democrats to enter upon a general
raid of the postoffices, throwing out
republicans and putting in democrats
without regard for the time of ex-
piration of republican appointments.
1t will probably not be many years
until there will be a putting away of
the pie counter spoils, and we will
have a non-partisan method of max
ing appointments, one that will have
more regard for availability and eff
ficiency than for party regularity.
Congressman Roddenberry says
that President-elect Wilson will have
no trouble dispensing the patronage
of his office. He says that Senator
Hoke Smith will have the control in
North Georgia and Senator Bacon in
south Georgia. Hoke says he is not
going to have much to do with it.

NATURES SIGNS OF RAIN

Many happenings in nature are in
dicative of wet weather. Rain may
be expected when any of the follow
ing things take place:
When the perfume of flowers is
unusually noticeable, because damp
weather conveys the odor of flowers
more effectively.
When swallows fly low, because
the swallow live on insects that fly
low when the upper stratas of air
is moist.
When ducks and geese dash water
on their backs, because by wetting
the outer coats of feathers before a
rain they prevent the drops from
penetrating through the pen feathers
to their bodies.
When horses and cattle stretch
out their necks and sniff the air.
They smell the increasing fragrance
preceding a rain storm.
When spiders hide, because they
know wet weather will drive flies
away, and their webs will not snare
any food
When wild flowers and many plants
close, because they are very sensi-
tive and fold their petals to protect
the stamen from the rain drops.
When ants become very lively and
seem to be in hurry about some
thing
When dogs and cats do not look
as lively as usual, and prefer to lie
around the house, keeping near the
fire.
When flies come in doors and seem
to be unusually sticky and trouble
some.
When swallows and other birds
that feed on the wing fly very low

MR.. FLAGLER is SO.
FIorida's Great Developer Receives
Congratulations From Many

Henry NJ Flagler, known through
out Florida as one of the states
greatest developers, passed his eigh-
ty-third birthday January 2. During
the day he received congratulations
from hosts of local friends and many
congratulatory kilograms from friends
both in Florida and in other states.
Mr. Flagler has seen the coming
true of his dream of a railroad ex-
tending the length of the East Coast
and on over the sea to Key West,
opening up the wonderful East Coast
section, and direct route to the Pan
ANA canal. And before many more
months pass he will see the compile
ton of his latest achievement, the
building of railroad into the interio-
of the state, touching F1orida's inland
sea, Lake Okeechobee, and opening
up for development the wonderously
fertile country of the Kissimmee val
ley and the northern everglades. st

THE DEMOCRACY OF DEATH

In the democracy of the dead all
men at least are equal. There Is
neither rank nor standing nor pre-
rogative in the republic OF the grave.
At this fatal threshold the philoso-
pher ceases to be wise, and the song
of the poet is silent. Dives relin-
quishes his millions and Lazarus his
rags. The poor man is as rich as the
richest, and the rich man is as poor
as the pauper.. The creditor loses his
usury, and the debtor is acquitted of
his obligation. There the proud man
surrenders his dignities, the politi-
clan his honors, the wording his
pleasures. The invalid needs no ply
stefan, and the laborer rests from I'M
requited toll. Here at last is natures
final degree in equity. The
wrongs of time are redressed, injus-
tice is eXpatiated, the irony of fate
is refuted, the unequal distribution of
wealth, honor, capacity, pleasure and
opportunity which makes life so cru
Ell and inexplicable ceases in the
realm of death. The strongest there
has no supremacy, and the weakest
needs no defense The mightiest
captain succumbs to that invincible
adversary, who disarms alike the vic
tor and the vanquished.-Joh J. In
