OOALA Is AN ORPHAN

Among the cities of Florida, Ocala
is an orphan, and a red-headed one
at that.
Ocala has had to hustle for her
self. She has had nothing done for
her. She has had no magnificent
patron nor political pull.
No Flagler nor Plant has built for
her magnificent hotels; no Stetson
has endowed her with an university;
no bunch of politicians has given her
a big, state-built and state-supported
school. The railroads have given
her only what they had to give to
carry on their own business, and
have taken every cent they could ex-
tort in return. The nearest thing to
godfather she has ever had has
been Steve Sparkman, who worried
Uncle Sam into giving her a federal
building, which, after all, Uncle
Sam needed as much as Ocala.
All the same, Ocala has done toll
erably we'll. Not having anybody to
do for them, her people have had to
do for themselves, and it's a good
deal they have done. They have the
most solid, all-the-year-round town
in Florida, which does business
twelve months in twelve with home
: people instead OF sitting idle half
that time, waiting for tourists There
is always something doing in Ocala
sometimes it is not as we'll done as
it might be; but its being done.

LONG-STCHTED LANDLORDS

We have in Florida a good many
hotels whose landlords lay them
selves out to please the public, to
make their guests feel at home and
desire TO return These hotels and
their proprietors are one of the best
assets of the state. Its to the inter
est Of the hotels to please the trav-
elers among home folks. A man
who once finds himself at home in a
hotel is very likely to go there again
and again, whenever he visits that
town. He likes to go where he
knows what to expect, if what he ex-
poets is good.
And in the matter Of tourists, a
good hotel is a public benefit. Most
of the tourists who come to Florida
are here for only one trip. Florida
is one Of the resorts of the world.
Its the American Italy, and to see it
is the lifetime hope OF thousands of
northern people in moderate circum-
stances. These people, when they
return home. put in a good part of
the balance Of their lives telling
about their Florida trips. The places
they stop at have perhaps more in
fluence than the climate and seem
cry in forming their impressions,
for a person who is uncomfortable
on account of bad feeling or broken
rest isn't likely to entirely appre-
ciate anything And these people
who are here only once tell their
friends in the north with great
faithfulness to detail all about their
experiences, scenery, climate, hotels,
steamers and railroad trains. Their
friends are more Influenced by this
first-hand information in their desire
to come to Florida and what routes
to follow than by any other reason.
The Star is sorry to say that some
| landlords are so short-sighted as to
gouge this class of tourists out Of
every cent, just because they come
I only once Such landlords should
have their eyes operated on with
can-opener. They should also be
sent back in the woods to hack tur-
pentine trees, for as hotelkeepers
they not only stand in their own
state.
The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1914-03-17

them if they do not want to do so.
The Star thinks they would be more
pleasant and edifying to read than
the reports of crimes and punish
ments in which negroes figure so
largely. and which all papers print
and all people read. 1t also thinks
that the attempts of colored people
TO build up society among them
selves-which society is bound to be
made up of their better elements,
and will need their best work of
hand and brain to develop, is a good
sign of great improvement in the
race, and deserves the approval OF
white people instead of opposition
and criticism.
The same arguments apply TO the
negro edition of the T.-U., which as
aforesaid, the Star has never seen.
If the negroes of Jacksonville are
able TO pay the T.-U. to print for
them a paper. it is all right for the
T.-U. TO print it. If ii is a separate
paper, they have a right TO express
their views, as long as they do not
advocate incendiary doctrine or try
to stir up race hatred. If it is a
part of the Times-Union, the man

If the bill that Mr.. L'Engle has
introduced into Congress, to deny
second-class rates to certain papers,
which color their news and in other
ways try to influence their readers
in the interest of the corporations or
individuals that own them, is direct
ed at the Times-Union, the Star for
once begs to differ with the out
spoken and talented congressman at
large. 1t is very true that the T.-U.
Suppresses some news and, unless
I'VE are much mistaken, colors other
news, in such a way as to mislead the
ignorant and leave the wise in doubt.
But the Times-Union is not alone in
this policy. The United States is
full of papers that do the same
thing Some of them are backed by
the millions of capital, and lie OF
pervert by a regular system. Some
are pitiful publications whose pub,
fishers live from hand to mouth, and
dare not print any truth that would
cost them even a dollar. Some are
publications that live on class or re

CONGRESS DISAGREES With
WILSON ON CANAL TOLLS
SOME HOUSE MEMBERS DO NOT
AGREE WITH PRESIDENT IN HIS
IDEA OF TAXING AMERICAN
SHIPS

Washington, D. c., Feb. 6.-Demo-
cratic leaders were inclined to the
view that there would be no initia-
tive in the senate to repeal the tolls
provisions and that action would be
awaited in the house.
That vigorous opposition win then
develop still is apparent, and express
sion of this attitude is expected to
develop in debate on the general ar
bitration treaty with Great Britain.
Senators who oppose the repeal os
the toll clause, argued today that
the course of the president in the
matter might be considered wise
from an international standpoint,
even should the senate check it's pur-
pose. They believe that it would Mt
least have moral effect on Great
Britain for the president to publicly
claim his sympathy with that ma
tons view of the tolls controversy,
even should the senate fail to sus-
tain him.
Representative Adamson, chairman
Of the house interstate commerce
committee, already has a bill pre-
pared, once introduced, which would
repeal the toll exemption clause.

Uncle Sam Must Agree
To Make Plan Work
Large DepOsitOrs Have Assured Oft-

Bank is Opened

The officials and directors of the
Americas National bank are working
on a plan whereby they hope to BE-
able to clear up the affairs of the in
stitution, re-organize the bank, and
open for business within the next
thirty days. The plan has already been
endorsed by a majority Of the stock
holders, according to Vice President
w. T. Lane, and it only remains for
the national government to give is
consent.
1t is the purpose of the stockholders
to subscribe amounts equal to the
stock that they hold in the bank at
present This will give the bank
100000 actual cash.. In addition ~
this, several of the largest depositors
of the bank have already signifed
their willingness to let their deposits
remain in the bank for periods ranging
as high as twelve months.
Within the thirty days that it will
take Receiver Dunlap to untangle he
affairs of the bank the officials will be
able to realize fully $4,000 or $4,000
on what is now outstanding in the
form of notes or oyerdrafts. This
would give the bank more than $125.-
900 cash to begin business with. This
sum, together with the assets of the
bank, will put the institution on its
feet enable it to proceed on it's way,
just as though nothing had ever hap
pened.
In case the national government al
lows the directors to pursue this
course e reorganization o. the entire
system will be the result Every de-
positor will receive his or her money
in full on demand, and Americas will
be saved the isgrace of bank with
closed doors.
