PROGRESSIVE PAPERS

There has been good deal of dis
cussion lately about which were the
most progressive daily papers, po-
Iitically speaking, of Florida.
With the exception of the Times
Union, the Star finds them all pro-
gressive. Some are more progress
sive than others, but so far as we
can see they are all in favor of pro-
gress, and generally fair. Of course,
every paper has it's own pet policies
and favorite men, but we do not see
that they uphold them more than is
their right.
As for the Times-Union, it an
nounces that it will whip anybody
that calls it progressive, and tho we
don't think the threat amounts to a
dern, there is not much of a chance
of anyone finding out whether it is
a bluff or not, for the Times-Union
is such a political Judas Iscariot that
no man wants to make himself ri
diculous by naming it in the same
sentence with so good word as pro-
gressive.

ROONEY'S PROPOSITION
FOR THE BLITCHTON ROAD

The proposition OF Secretary Room
ey for the people OF Marion county.
to get together and build the road
thru Blitchton to the Levy county
line in one day is startling to the
ultra conservative, but it is entirely
practical, and if the people OF Mar
ion will turn in and help him carry
it to success they will not only secure
the much needed road, bat they will
obtain for their, county all over the
United States a great deal Of the
most favorable advertising. II will
do a whole lot to attract the atten-
ton of the sort of folks that we
most desire TO become neighbors,
draw their favorable notice than the
fact so we'll attested that our county
is already tenanted by such progress
sive and industrious people.
All US old boys, who were brought
up in the sticks, and have pulled the
bell cord over a mule, or yelled gee"
land ''haw' at steer, have attended
neighborhood workings where
the men came together and cleared
la field or built fence or put up a
barn or corn crib for a neighbor,
while the women cooked a glorious
dinner, which tasted the better the
harder we worked. And we always
did a lot of work in one day-every
man did about thirty per cent. more
with about thirty per cent less effort
than if he had been by himself. 1t
was the novelty, the comradship and
the cooperation that brought results.
We once heard it said by an old man,
who had attended hundreds of such
events that the workings always
seemed like playings to him
The Star would like nothing bet
| ter than to see Mr.. Rooney's idea
carried out. If the people would en-
tier into it with spirit, they would
| find it one big holiday. 1t would
be neighborhood working amplified,
and it would have the added good OF
making neighbors and friends of hum
dreds who are now strangers.
1t is entirely possible to do this
work and in the time proposed All
THAT is needed is a big crowd and
IpIenty OF enthusiasm. Marion coun-
Ity has the crowd, and if it starts it
| will bring the enthusiasm with it.
Let all who are willing to join in
| the undertaking send their names
ito Mr.. Rooney at once. And let
every man who favors it speak to his
neighbor in advocacy of the plan.
