NO RAIN IN siGHT-GAR-
DENS SUFFERING FOR WATER

All signs fail in dry weather, it is
said, but the people need not expect
rain any time soon. The indications
now point to three more weeks at
least of hot, dry weather, and if any
people are disposed to pray for rain
they now have a good opportunity to
try their luck.
This long spell of dry weather is
drying up the gardens and vegetables
may be expected to be scarce during
the next few weeks. The only hope
for the garden is a late crop which
may be raised after the rains set in.

THOMAS ALSO
COVERING GROUND.
Bourbon Candidate Makes a
Splendid Impression In
His Campaign.

In a statement made here for the
press, Hon. c. NJ. Thomas, candidate
for the Democratic nomination for
Congress from the Seventh District,
said, regarding Congressman Can
trills statement as to deals with the
liquor people made by Mr.. Thomas.
"Eevery one, by this time, must be
familiar with the tactics of the liquor
crowd in Louisville, for the wires are
pulled from Louisville in temperance
fights in Kentucky.
There is no desperate end to which
they will not go, or means which they
would not employ, in the fight to hold
political control of the territory whose
people are still subject to them, and
to regain that which happily they
have lost.
1.-TWO years ago when l was fighting
in the Senate to pass the County Unit
bill their claim was that had appeal
ed to the whisky interests of my dis
trict for support, and had given to
those interests in return a pledge IN
writing that / would oppose temper
ance legislation.
"Of course, that was utterly absurd
and untrue Every one in that Sena'
torial District knew that it was un'
true. Now they have shifted their po-
sition, and, through Mr.. Cantrill
claim that the pledge was given to
Cantrill in an interview at the Phoe
nix Hotel
'"This statement has just as little
foundation as the other, and upon It's
face is equally as absurd.
| 81 had no opposition for the noml
nation or from the Republicans, ano
certainly could NOT have said to Mr
| Cantrill that / was about to be de
feated. nor could | have appealed &c
him for help when l was not IN neeo
of help.
81 never made any such statemen,
or promise to Mr.. Cantrill, nor ola
make any deal of any sort at any time
anywhere with the liquor dealers IL
Paris to support me four years ago.
And so with the statement that
did not support Mr.. Cantrill after nav
ing run against him for Congress IL
1910 | did not owe Mr.. Cantrill per
sonally anything, because he had CIV
en- me his written pledge that III
would not run against me at ina
time. but | owed to my party 10 sup
mort it's nominee and l did so.

SALESMAN'S VIEWS.

FRANKFORT, KY, July 2.-Mr.
George w. Thomas, of Louisville, a
well-known travelling salesman, says
in the counties he has travelled, which
has been in all sections of the State,
ne finds 80 per cent. of the Democrats
for Beckham. Mr.. Thomas says Lou
isville will give Beckham from 1000
to 5000 plurality He says it seems
to be conceded everywhere, even by
the Stanley and McCreary men, that
Beckham is going to win, and that it
might as we'll be unanimous. Mr.
Thomas says he finds hundreds of in
dependent and Republican voters who
will support Beckham if he is nomi
mated.

LITTLE FRANCES GARY BURNED

Sunday afternoon little Frances
Gary, the youngest child OF Mr.. and
Mrs. W T. Gary, was quite badly
burned The little girl, whose nurse
had gone, was playing in her room,
while her mother was in an adjoining
room. In some way the little girl
got hold of some matches, which she
struck, and caught her clothing on
fire. Her mother heard her cries and
rushed into the room and soon had
the fire out, and in doing SO her hands
were severely burned.
Little Frances was badly burned on
various parts of her body, but very
fortunately none of the burns are
more than painful, and she will soon
be all right again, although she will
have to remain in bed for some days.
The friends OF the Gary family regret
exceedingly TO learn OF the accident
to their little daughter, but rejoice
that it was no worse.

NOTED FISHERMEN VISIT oCALA

Mr. George s. Wenes or Chicago
and Nr. Lansing 5. Wel]es Of yellow
stone Park. TWO famous fishermen,
are visitors to Ocala and are guests
at the Harrington Hal They came to
Ocala on the recommendation Of the
editors of Forest and Stream. They
wanted to catch some OF those twelve
pound trout that Judge Warner has
written so interestingly about to that
popular piscatorial newspaper. These
gentlemen are cousins, are about the
same age, and both happened to the
misfortune Of having their right arms
broken, but it did not stop them from
fishing q single day. AS the fishing
grounds OF Oca!2 are ten, fifteen and
twenty miles distant, ana have to be
reached by automobiles, and as this
mode Of travel is discommoding to
them in their present crippled cOndi-
ti0n, they will go from here to Lees
burg, and frcm there to Clearwater
and St Petersburg, where they can
fish from the nearby Wharves. An
illustrated account of their fishing
trip, in which they happened to the
peculiar accident of breaking their
right arms in the mad excitement of
landing an unusual catch, is being
printed in the New York Herald and
the Forest and Stream. They are most
excellent gentlemen and are making
a number of friends during their brief
stay in our city.

THE OBJECT OF cARRANZA's
Fight

Here is what Carranza says he is
fighting for: -
What we are fighting for is the
constitution of our country and the
development of our people. This rev.
olutiOn cannot cease until we, the.
constitutiOnalists, triumph, or till
Huerta triumphs completely over us.
Even in the latter case it would only
cease for the moment. Its has its
roots in social causes. The land which
was formerly divided among the mass
OF the people, has been seized by the
few. The owners of it compel those
who are working for them to buy the
necessities of life from them alone.
They lay a burden of debt upon the
poor people and make them VirtualIy7
slaves, for as long as the poor peoples
owe them money they cannot gc|
away. If they try to go away they can
be brought back. They can be put il
prison. Another cause for the revolu
ton is the growth of the middle class
Formerly there were only the rich ans
the poor. Now there is a class in be
tween which does not like to see TIL
poor oppressed; which knows wha
democracy and social reforms mea
in other countries, and which is n
solved to take successive steps 70.
