BY WAGON FROM KENTUCKY TO
FLORIDA

Two wagons, loaded with men, wo-
men and children, and household
goods, passed through Ocala Monday
morning. These good people had
come all the way from Bowling
Green, KY, and are scheduled for
Wauchula, Florida. They had evident
ly read Editor Goolsby's articles, en-
titled, Watch Wauchula Grow!'
We had "rabbit-foot" and a buck
eye," and tried to sidetrack them, kid
nap them, or in some way induce
them to stop here, but those glowing
articles of Editor Goolsby's had TAX
en- too firm a root, and one might as
well have tried to have disjoined
Ephraim from his idols.
They are a strong, stalwart, healthy
looking people, the cheeks of the chill
dren look the color of the blush on
the peach, and the whole party seems
to have enjoyed the trip well, and are
destined to make good citizens for
Florida.
Mr.. c. NJ. Hurd and Mr.. r. E. Palmer
are at the head of the party. These
gentlemen said that the roads from
Bowling Green, KY, to Valdosta, Ga,
were fine, and the roads through Ten
nessee were almost like vitrified
brick pavements.
They expect to reach Wauchula Wy
the end of the week.
They will engage in planting an or
ange grove, and as side lines will do
most anything to turn an honest pen
ny.
They are the advance guard of 9th
ers. Florida is the state of destiny,
and the tramp of newcomers may
soon be heard from all directions.

elsewhere, where his vision of the

OCALA SCHOOL

Mr.. P. D. O'Dell informed reporter
of this paper yesterday that the iron
beams needed for the primary and
North Ocala schools had at last ar
rived, and work on the buildings
would now be pushed rapidly to COM
pletion.
The school board has made a
change in the North Ocala school by
the addition of four more windows.
which will make it a much handsom-
er building.
Mr.. O'Dell says that the buildings
will soon be ready for occupancy.
Ocala may well congratulate her
self on her public schools and public
school buildings.

LET ALL BOOST FOR THE FAIR
Ocala, Fla, Oct. Is, 1914.
To the Editor Ocala Banner:

To the Editor Ocala Banner:
l promised you after the meeting
of the board of directors of the Ma
rion County Fair Association, to make
a statement of the attitude of the
management of the association to-
ward allowing upon the fair grounds
anything of nature to develop con-
troversy or i'll feeling.
Soon after the inception of the as.
sociation this subject was under dis
cussion, for it was believed that cir
cumstances might arise when decis-
ion must be made, and it was then re-
solved that the only proper and safe
policy to pursue was to exclude from
it's premises all matters that might
create discussions, discord, friction or
embarrassment among or to the
guests of the association. The second
year an occasion arose when this pol
icy was put to the test, and our view
sustained, and only in one single in
stance has the wishes of the manage
ment been disregarded, and the of
tending matter continued after a re-
quest to desist.
We were of the opinion that there
should be one time and one occasion
during the year when all questions
bearing upon the religious, political
or secular opinions or convictions of
individuals or organizations should be
relegated to the background, and our
people unite in working for the com
mon good in the upbuilding of our
section on agricultural and industrial
lines. We have no controversy with
any person, sect or organization; this
we wished to avoid: and, speaking
for myself, l believe the best interests
of all concerned will be secured by
following the policy indicated.
Respectfully,
DAVID S. WILLIAMS.

Mr.. RICHARD S. HALL WILL NOT
LEAVE OCALA


Owing to the fact that Mr.. Emmett
Robinson was sent by Mr.. Hall to
Jacksonville to take charge of the Of
fees that he has recently established
in that city, report has gained cur
rency that Mr. Hall himself would
leave Ocala as soon as he could dis
pose of his home and make other ne
cessary arrangements.
We took the trouble to run down
this report, and are more than pleas
ed to say that it is wholly without
foundation.
Mr.. Hall says that he has very large
interests in Jacksonville, and he
found it necessary to open offices
there to give those interests better
oversight.
Besides his hotel interests, he has
invested somewhat heavily in real es-
tate, and the taxes must be looked
after and the rentals collected, but
more than that, he has made or is
making arrangements to dispose OF
his naval stores independently, and
hereafter will not ship through agen,
cies or exchanges, and this alone ne
cessitated his opening offices in Jack
sonville.
Mr.. Hall says that he has not the
remotest idea of leaving Ocala. That
if he should sell his home-which he
has no idea of doing-he would build
another one in Ocala, or on his farm
near the city.
why should I leave Ocala?" ne
asked.
Then he went on to say that he had
home here, large, comfortable and
convenient enough to make any ordi-
nary mortal happy.
He said further, that he had a
farm near the city, which, among 9TH
er things, was stocked with a dozen
fine Jersey cows, and that his table
was supplied abundantly with all the
fresh milk, butter, buttermilk and
cream, fresh eggs, chickens, turkeys,
pork and fruits and vegetables
throughout the year; so why" he
asked, should l leave Ocala, with
all of these comforts and luxuries, to
live in a stuffy city and be deprived
of them?"
Because two of the members of the
city council are in Mr. Halls employ
ment, We take the liberty of saying in
this connection that Mr.. Hall has TAX
en- no part in city politics; that he
has no axe to grind at the city grind
stone, and that the city government
can in no way benefit him except as
it benefits the people as a whole. That
he is asking for no franchise at its
hands, and that he knows of no legis-
lation that would confer a favor on
him that would not in like manner
confer the same favor on all the in
habitants of the city.
Furthermore, Mr.. Hall says that all
the money he has spent in Ocala has
been made in other places.
Loving Ocala and its people, do
ing his humble part to enrich and
beautify it, and anxious to see it go
forward, all he asks is to be on
friendly terms with it's people, to
merit their good will and not their
censure and criticism, especially
when he does not deserve. either.
Where we have one, this paper
wishes we had an hundred or more
Halls.

Autocraoy or Democracy !

AutOcraty has had lis way. AUS
tf.a's quarrel with Seryia was no at-
Jar Of the German people. Russia'-
challenge to Austria was no affair o.
the German people. Yet che very
fate of the German empire is thrown
into the balance in order to halt the
march of political freedom IN Europe.
All the world knew that decla-
ration of war against Russia was in
eject a declaration Of war against
France. Germany admitted It Iy
mobilizing her army on the Rus
sian frontier. The decisive blow wac
ia be struck against the French re-
public, not against its imperial ally.
1t was not Russian despotism that
was to be crushed, but French Re
Iublicanism.
The hollow hypocrisy of the whole
proceeding is revealed in the fact
that before the clash OF arms is fair
" begun the Austrian invasion Of
servia is practically abandoned.
Having begun the war. German
autocracy now finds itself isolated.
Italy constructs the triple alliance as
applicable only TO a war of deiense;
because there would be reyolu-
tion in Italy if the government ven
tured TO champion the cause o. tho
Lated Austrian Great Britain it
compelled to make Frances cause
her cause. Germany and Austria are
left alone TO fight the battle Of au-
tucracy and pay the bill in blood and
treasure and prestige. In this Wal
they have no sympathizers even
among neutlals. The enlightened
opinion OF the whole world has
turned against the two kaisers as il
turned against Napoleon iii. When
he sought to make himself the auto
crat of Europe.
What was begun hastily as wa,
o. autocracy Is not unlikely fl enc
as war OF revolution wit, throne
trumbling and dynasties in exile
Civilization cannot rest at the mere.
OF deapotism, and the welfare O
mankind is not to be made tho play

must be dreuched in blood before thh
