VICTORY FOR RAGsDALE.

HIntnUment 10 CURRENCY FaVOrs
Notes on Farm Staple Securities.
Washington Special to Charleston
News and Courier, Aug. 14.-At this
stage OF the Democratic caucus of
the house OF representatives on the
Glass currency bill, there seems to
be a possibility that an amendment
may be adopted providing that in
discounting by regional banks, the
notes OF local banks based on farm
staple security shall not be discrimi-
mated against. This would be in
principle a victory for the Ragsdale
proposition, which has a great many
supporters.

ALL THE WEST COAST AROUSED

All the towns along the west coast
are aroused to the necessity for bet
ter harbors. enabling them TO have
water transportation and lower freight
rates. Clearwater and Dunedin and
our near neighbors of Crystal River
and Cedar Keys were represented at
the meeting of the board of engineers
in Tampa Friday The Times says:
Prior to the hearing of argument
over the HiIlsborough river PROPOSE
tion the board heard from Mr.. Van
Roy. who represented the citizens Of
Crystal River. Here they are asking
for a channel for coastwise vessels,
but appear to be at sea as to the depth
to be requested of the government. Mr..
Van Roy said he felt at loss as to
what he ought TO say before the board
pleading that he people of Crystal
River were formers and knew nothing
about engineering prospects. Before
he took his seat he had managed to
show to the board that he is at least
an enthusiast on the possibilities of
Crystal River, and, incidentally helped
Tampa along by making the statement
that much of the trade of Crystal Riv-
er that ought by right to go to Tampa
is now going to Jacksonville, because
they cannot get coastwise vessels in.
Mr.. Van Roy will appear before the
board again on Sunday night at Ocala,
when he will have definite PROPOSE
ton to submit that will probably carry
with it a promise on the part of the
Crystal River. people to share in the
cost OF constructing the canal asked
for.
Clearwater Harbor, Dunedin and
Cedar Keys also had propositions to
submit. but these were deferred until
Sunday night at Ocala.'

Engineers WILL Be
HERE SUNDAY EVENING
Citizens Requested to Meet with them
at the Board Of Trade
Room

Mayor Robertson and Secretary
Rooney returned last night from Tam
pa. where they represented Oca1a at
the meeting of many prominent men
from west coast ports with the army
engineers.
Consideration of the needs Of Tam
pas port, of course, took up most Of
the time of the board in that city. so
Messrs. Robertson and Rooney tried to
do nothing more than secure the prom
Use of the engineers to visit Ocala-
They talked for the city on the out
side, however. This Rooney man is
going TO be always on the job-infor-
nation about Oca1a will ooze from him
at every pore all the time, and as we
all know If he can make a man stand
still long enough to hear him he is able
to interest him. Push and Smile
Powell won't be SO lonesome in his
class now that Rooney is secretary of
a board of trade.
Mayor Robertson is always a worker
for his city, wherever he is. and his
solid. common-sense opinions never
fail TO impress his hearers.
The engineers will be in Leesburg
tomorrow, and VIII there consult with
the citizens OF that region according
to the program already indicated in the
Star. Secretary Rooney will go to
Leesburg to meet them He hopes to
be accompanied by Judge W. S. Bull
lock and one or two other public men
who are well acquainted with the sub
ject in hand. Late in the afternoon.
the engineers will come TO Ocala, and
will give a hearing at o'clock in the
Board of Trade rooms to all our citiz-
ems who are interested in this very
vital subject. 1t is rather an unhandy
time for a public meeting, but there
was no allowance for Ocala in the en-
gineers' schedule, and it is quite clever
in them to give to our affairs the time
that they would almost certainly pre-
fere to devote to rest. So the Star
hopes our business men will show ap-
probation by attending in as large a
number as possible.
The board consists of Col w. G.
Langfitt, president, Col. Henry Taylor,
Maj. ]. A. Barden and Secretary A. H.
Weber. Major SIattery viii probably

plans for Ocala's future.
eve have the best agricultural sec
ton of the state around Oca1a,'' he said
today, "and we mean to make the most
of that fact. Not only that, we are in
the center of the state and there is no
reason why, with proper facilities in
the way of transportation OcaIa should
not be the distributing point for a
large section of the state. We need
better transportation facilities and we
will get them"
Mr.. Rooney spoke of the plan to ex-
tend the incorporate limits of Ocala to
cover a strip one-half mile wide and
some five miles long, so as to take in
Silver Springs, which empties into the
Oklawaha and thus would give Ocala
water transportation right to her own
docks. He also had plan whereby
the city might later obtain other out
lets, both to Palatka and Port Inglis,
the latter being a Gulf port.

Big Crop of the Sour Balls on the

Miami, April 12.-Reports from the

lines in the history of southern Flor

shortage of lemons due to the Califor-

crease the demand for lines and
hence keep prices at a high level the

An exchange says that higher necks
10 wOmen's dresses would have more
effect than higher wages in promoting
social purity. The Star has its doubts.
The country is more moral now than it
was when women were tied up like
bales OF goods, and the proportion of
illegitimate children in Europe is
highest in those countries where the
climate keeps the dresses of females
up to their ears.
