WHAT MAKES A SHIP MoNoP
olY7

Mr. Ed Carmichael has a boat line
running from Silver Springs to Pa
latka. Only one boat is now on the
line 1t makes the run in daylight and
is carrying a full list of passengers
each trip He is doing a good thing
for himself and a good thing for
Ocala. We are holding up his hands
and wishing him all manner of good
.uck. He feels so much encouraged
that he proposes to build another
steamer before the next tourist sea-
son. If one boat is good thing he
thinks that two boats will be better
thing and the people of Ocala agree
with him. But suppose that he builds a
feet of boats will his line become
a monopoly? And this leads up to the
question, What is ship monopoly ?
We hear a good deal of talk about it,
but have not heard any satisfactory
explanation. 1t requires capital to
build ocean going vessels and of
course us little people can not build
them. They must be built by those
men who have large sums of money.
No one man is scarcely able to do so
so many men must get together and
form corporation and in this way
these big ships are built. There are
quite a number of these ships running
out of New York and doing a coast
wise business. The Clyde, the Mallory
the Merchant and Miners, the Ward
and a number of other lines. They
form a monopoly in the fact that they
do not encroach on one another's ter
ritory, but it may be that they do not
do this because they make more by
catering to the wants of their own
territory. If 1t be true that they have
formed a combination and a monopo-
ly the only way that we can see that
IL can be broken up is to give all ships
flying whatever flag the right to do
coastwise trade and come into compe-
tition wiz the lines above mentioned.
This would cheaper freight rates but
would not build up our American
marine

ScoIds Ocala for Not More Fully
Advertising Silver
Springs

Daytona Fla, March 10, 1914.
Mr.. ]. d. Rooney,
Secretary, Board of Trade,
Ocala, Florida.
My dear Sir:
Acknowledging the receipt of yours
of February 18th. l cannot definitely
promise to visit Ocala while in aFlori-
da, but hope that 1 may be able to
do so. l am planning, some time dur
ing March, a trip to the West Coast,
and if | make this, it is probable that
l shall be able to stop over in Ocala
1t was my good fortune to be in
your good town two years ago. At
that time l went out to see the re-
clamation work that was being done
by Messers. Kyle and Young, and also
the large farming operations some
ten or twelve miles from town which
were being conducted by Western
people. l likewise, through the kind
ness of friends in Ocala, saw Silver
Springs. You see, therefore, that
il am somewhat familiar with the
country around Ocala. At that time
wrote several articles covering some
phases of the development of your
section.
If J. A. Pride did not, before his
recent visit, fully understand the adj
vantages and resources of the Ocala
section, he failed to follow my advice
in regard to making a careful study
of it. But l am persuaded that how
ever much he was delighted with the
trip that you recently gave him, Mr..
Pride, already knew fairly we'll some
thing of the unusual attractions of
your county. know how much in
terested he has been in the develop
ment of that section as we'll as of
the Manatee country.
And yet l have sometimes thought
that neither your local people nor the
railroad people quite appreciate one
of your resources which in itself
ought to draw thousands of visitors
to Ocala. l refer to Silver Springs.
Some friends of mine were in Ocala
last week and they did not hear a
word about Silver Springs and they
did not know until l had told them
what they had missed. l have never
seen anything more wonderfully beau
tiful than Silver Springs. No one
ought to be allowed to visit Ocala
without being persuaded to visit the
spring and see for himself its marvels.
If Silver Springs was In Colorado
or California, it would be heralded
throughout the world by the local peo-
pie as we'll as by the railroads as one
of the wonders of the world. If
small army would have to be station
ed around it to keep people in line as
they sought the opportunity of see.
ing it. Silver Springs is an asset, not
merely to Ocala nor to Florida, but
to the nation. The region surrounding
it ought to be carefully guarded and
the spring itself ought to be protect
ed from all vandalism.
If the officials of the railroads
which run through. ocala are not full
ly acquainted with Silver Springs,
may suggent that the. first work
that the Board of Trade. ought to do
is to let them see it and know for
themselves what a tourist-compel-
ling attraction it would be if properly
advertised -. .. :. j..
+. Very truly yours, ..~,
