People of Three Counties Much In
tereSted in Train Service Be-
tween Ocala and Palatka

Secretary Rooney, Messrs. Rogers.
Moore, Condor and Gates, returned
last night from Gainesville, where
they attended the meeting OF repre-
sentatives from Ocala, Gainesville,
Hawthorne and Palatka boards of
trade TO try and obtain a morning
and evening train service between
the cities named. 4 good crowd was
present and the meeting was held
up until the Ocala delegates arrived.
The case was laid before the 4
c. L. officials. who are not unwilling
to give the required service, but say
il will cost them more than il will
come to. It seems that Ocala and
Gainesville are in one division OF the
A. c. L. and Palatka another These
divisions are unknown quantities to
the layman. but they cut big figure
with railToaders, a similar factor
being in the way of the establish
ment OF the Ocala and Sanford
train.
The meeting adjourned subject 70
the call Of the president, who will
convene it some time in the near fu-
ture at Palatka, at which time the
members Of the railroad commission
will be present, and it is hoped to
accomplish something.

MIR. GAMSBY REPLIES
TO MIR. PACKHAM
Regarding the Latter's Criticism on
the Ocala and Lake Weir Road

Editor Star: The article by Mr.
H. C. Packham relative 10 the afore-
said road is an unjust criticism OF
the commissioners OF Marion county
as we'll as myself. and from his
statement he is in the predicament
of the sailor" between the devil
and deep blue sea. His assertion
that the waste is between $50 and
SIS per day shows how ridiculous
his article is. as the total cost Of
four convict gangs, two free labor
gangs and necessary materials and
repairs has been less than SIS per
day some months and on others very
little more. The lime road from
during dry weather by log and wood
wagons, and the owners use the road
every day without groan. The road
through Belleview is being built to
profile and grades submitted TO the
city council of that city and accepted
by them. The fills referred TO were
made to get sufficient elevation TO
provide for drainage, and avoid hav-
ing mud holes as existed previous to
this change. If the critic had hap
pened to have stuck there with his
he would have commene-
ed knocking sooner.
For the benefit of citizens and
yourself. the cost of grading and
hardening the Belleview road for the
Hneal foot, and if you or any one
can suggest a cheaper method We
would be glad to have your sugges-
tons. AS TO using road engine. this
requires from 80 TO 40 gallons of
gasoline per day to operate. If you
will demonstrate the economy Of
using this for clay road in place of
scrapers and road drags. we are will
ling to be Instructed.
The balance OF the Lake Weir
road was built as we'll as a surface
road can be made. being as good ma
terial as could be had locally and
cost 10 cents 10 - cents a lineal
line. The monthly reports show the
work done in each district as we'll as
its cost. which is the property OF ev-
cry taxpayer and ar his disposal.

across the continent from each other
one a thousand and the other three
thousand miles from the Office OF the
| firm.
| The last contract was awarded to
| the firm on the 9Th of this month.
Mr.. Jenkins went in person to
!! Washington and signed the contract
in the treasury department. The
| Lafayette building was taken at
$4,000 and the time, limit is fifteen
months, though it will be completed
| by Jan. 1st. Mr.. Williams and his
SON, Mr.. Ned Williams, are now in
| Douglass. Mr.. Williams will meet
Mr.. Jenkins in New Orleans in a
few days and they will go to La
+! fayette and start the job off, leave it
| in charge of superintendent and go
after another one. Mr.. Ned Will
Jams will remain in charge of the
/ 81 -
when he will return home. The
| Douglass building is the largest OF
! the two and the contract was for
/ SCI 900. The firm wants two others
/ can carry on four at one time as
/ we'll as one. 1t has a contract to
/ build very large and expensive
courthouse in Arkansas, but the
county commissioners have not yet
succeeded in arranging their finances
and the job will not be started until
+ these arrangements are made.
\ Messrs. j. F. Jenkins & Co., pre-
kind. 1t is particular and exacting,
but that is the kind they do, and
there is no trouble or bother or the
thousand and one little worries in
cident to county or state work. Both
Of the present jobs viii net them a
very handsome profit; the bids were
few and all fairly high, so the work
was taken at a figure where there is
liberal profit.
Ocala is proud of firm whose
ability and integrity is such as to get
it work all over the country as this
one is doing. Some have asked if
they will not be moving away from
Ocala with all Of these big jobs else
where. Where would they go? This
is as good as any place and they
have heavy investments here. The
jobs are only incidents, completed
and closed in few months, then
the next contract may be just as far
in another direction. They are al
ways estimating on a number OF
| jobs and are never without two or
more on hand at any time.
