"cET TOGETHER"

The advice of this paper according
to the full measure of its influence to
the democratic party in state and ma
ton is TO get together" and stay to-
gether."
The good book tells us that "a house
divided against itself must fall" I'm
ion carries with it strength and pow
er.
We are glad that this condition of
affairs is rapidly coming about. 1t
means the control OF the government
by the democratic party for long
period OF time.
The democratic party is almost a
unit on the tariff, on the currency, on
the matter of dealing with monopo-
lies and trusts. in the matter of the
parcels post, and on the presidents
policy in dealing with the Mexican
problem
The signs of the times are pointing
in the right direction. There is an
euphony as if the morning stars We're
singing together in gladness.
In state politics the same advice is
given. This paper has proposed that
the two factions unite on Frank
Mayes for governor, and in this uni
fication of the party it will go so far
as to advocate a second term for our
friend. LEngle. although he is some
times erratic and often out of har-
mony with his colleagues and associ-
ates.
In our municipal elections we ad-
vocate the same general principles.
and in the election just ended We are
glad that there was no mud-slinging
and no improper methods employed.
So far as we know that is the record.
With this paper it was more or less
of a choice between friends, and it
did not confine its choice wholly to
either side of the two factions. AS
both were members of the same po-
litical party, were all friends and adj
vocated the same general measures
for civic improvement, it saw no ne
cessity for using either the tomahawk
or scalping- knife.
So this paper repeats what it said
before. viz: That it hopes there will
be no friction between the mayor and
the city council. and that the incom-
ing year will mark an administration
that will be "red letter" epoch in
Ocala for civic improvement and
growth along all lines-material,
moral and spiritual.
This paper sees no reason why the
people of Ocala cannot get together"
and pull together" for the general
good of all. and live in peace, amity,
concord and good will with his neigh
Dor and his neighbor's neighbor.
So this paper repeats: Let's root
out factionalism, contention and
strife. bury the Ratchet and scalplng
knife. with all the sentiment that it
implies. and resolve to consecrate
ourselves to higher things.
The day for parading ones self
with a chip on either shoulder is pass
ed. and lies buried beside the code
dueuo.
Let's preserve and conserve every
thing that makes for the betterment
OF the community. forgiving and for
getting and looking only 10 the flu
ture with its cornucopia of blessings.
Let's pull together for a greater
Ocala.' making heroic efforts to util-
lie the best assets in the best posi-
bic manner to accomplish this most
desirable end.
Let's all join together in the move
ment to smoke the pipe of peace and
he happy.
No good will ever come by nursing
crouch.

WHY CALLED "BLAeK MARIA"
Boston Negress Of Colonial Times Re'
sponsible for Designation OF
Police Patrol Wagon.

A terror to evildoers was the real
original Black Maria, and quite as
useful in helping to keep the peace as
the black maria of today. Black Maria
lived in Boston and in Colonial times.
She was gigantic negress, named
Marie Lee. and she was mistress OF a
sailors boarding house down near the
wha.Ye3.
Sailrr5 came to her from all over
tho world. They were often wild.
rough set. but they never gave Maria
any trouble, for her huge size was well
balanced by her prodigious strength.
It is told that she once brought three
drunken sailors at once to the lookup
when they had grown too obstreperous
to be kept longer in the house.
The fame of Maria's strength grew,
so that she became Of great assistance
to the authorities, for when men got
to be violent or quarrelsome Black
Maria was sent for and soon reduced
the unruly to obedience. In time her
reputation spread all over Boston, aat
the lawless element grew SO afraid OF
her that often the threat Of sending
for Black Maria was enough tc quell
the worst cases of insubordination.
Few people know Of Blaci1 Maria
Lee as the boarding house keeper OF
Colonial days, but she handed her
name down as a menace to the vicious
of future generations, in the modern
Jail wagon. To send for the bla elk
maria" is as much of threat now es
It was in Maria Lees time.
