LINE HAS
IMPROVED ITS COACHES

The Star is glad to be able to note
an improvement in the passenger
coaches used on trains No. 80 and 40
on the Jacksonville and st. Peters
burg run.
While these trains haven't been
given new cars, those in use have
been put thru the shops and are now
in better condition than they have
been for number of years. When
the trains start out on their runs in
the morning the coaches are in pretty
fair shape.
Trains 80 and 20 do heavy local
business. For several years they
have had very shabby coaches. The
present cars are not palatial, but they
are great improvement.
1t has seemed to the Star that the
Coast Line, under Superintendent
Brand, is making greater efforts to
please its local patrons than it did
before that gentleman came on deck.
As for the division superintendent,
Mr.. Macarthur, he always does the
best he can with the resources at his
disposal. The Star is always better
pleased to observe improvement than
to kick at neglect

POWER COMPANY'S
PROPOSITION

Meeting this Evening

At the meeting of the Marion

at Board of Trade headquarters, the
proposition of the Florida Power
Company will be presented for discus
sion.
The power conipany's proposition
appears elsewhere in today's paper,
and is made to the city for the pur-
pose of furnishing power for operat-
ing the electric lighting Of the city for
term of years.
Mr.. r. G. Camp will be on hand to
explain in detail the plan proposed by
his company, and every member
should be present to hear just what
is in the proposition.
It is probable that there will b:
further developments to report on the
very important matter of Mr.. Car
nichael's proposition for freight
boat line on the Oklawaha. and the
meeting will be full of interest for al
who attend

HAVE A RIGHT TO BE HEARD

Some of the Stars friends have
tried to rebuke it for what they con-
slider its change in policy in regard
to the proposition of the Florida Pow
er Company to furnish the city with
current.
The Star hasn't changed its policy
IN the least. II has always been the
Stars policy that everybody had a
right to be heard on public PROPOSE
ton.
The Florida Power Company has
made an open and aboveboard and
very fair business proposition. 1t has
a right to make the proposition, and
the people of Ocala have right to
an opportunity to consider it.
The Star stands right where it al
ways has stood on municipal owner
ship, and doesn't think it is going to
make any change. 1t has, however
always desired to impress on the peo-
pie that they can't make success out
of public ownership unless they give
it close and interested attention. They
must study every matter connected
with it and decide what they want
done, and then see that it is done.
There is no move reason to refust
to consider the Camps proposition
than there would he to refuse to con
slider a proposition from the Wood
mar Sand and Stone Company to paw
OkIawaha avenue.

Among those who spent Saturday
in Gainesville was Prof. w. Ell. Cas-

school, who accompanied the football
boys of that institution to Gaines
vile. Prof. Cassels was principal of
the Gainesville schools for number
of years and much regret was occas-
stoned here when he decided to leave
this city. He is one of Florida's most
capable and most ambitious educators
and the Ocala school should prosper
under his direction. Prof. Casse1s
stated that he is well pleased with
the Brick City and that the school is
doing good work. There are 104 stu
dents in the high school department.

THERE'S A DIFFERENCE

The Tampa Times is not pleased
with some of the remarks made by
the railroad commission in dealing
with the complaints of the people
about trains being laid off. 1t takes
particular exception to the following
paragraph:
"We note some criticisms are, that
the commissioners have allowed re-
duction in train service, without Civ
ing the public an opportunity to be
heard. All we have to say, with ref
erence to that, is that if all the peo-
pie had been heard, it would not have
resulted in changing single figure
before US or brought the carriers a
cent more revenue. The fact that a
community may petition in protest to
the commissioners, does not in any
way affect the revenue which the rail
road is actually getting from bust
that the commissioners have acted
without due regard to the public, we
regret to say, that there seems to be
misconception on the part of some,
of what is intended by regulative law,
regulating public service corpora
tions, and instead of the commission
ers acting with discretion, that they
must do whatever the public says
must be done. In this, connection we
wish to say, that the law was intended
to place discretion with the commits
sioners, it was for the purpose of pro-
tecting the people against the rail-
the railways against any unreasona-
BILE demands, and it will be the pur-
pose of this commission, so long as
we remain in office, to discharge every
, public duty in this manner. Justice
as near as we can arrive at it, is oul
purpose"
Commenting on this, the Times
says:
at seems to us that there are al
ways two sides to a question. The
people have the right to be heard
where their interests are at stake
Suppose several of these communitie:
had been able to show to the railroad
commission that the business giveI
| the railroad on these self-same trains
! that the commissioners allowed to b.
cut off was sufficient to pay the ex
pense of their operation? While WI
do not say that such is the case in tn,
present instance, railways have beel
| known to state their own case in thei
own way without sticking to tn
straight line of truth, and they ar
not alone in that habit. And tn
Times wishes to call the attention o
the honorable members of the Florid
railroad commission to just one NOR
fact that they seem to have overlook
ed, namely, that the board is the sci
want of the people of Florida, o
should be, and it has no right to hea
only one side of case where the pee
! Piles interests are at stake"
The Star has no doubt that tn
| commission has acted right in this il
stance, and thinks it was an occasio
to act without delay. However, til
E commission was very unlucky in tt
4 utterance alluded to. 1t goes far
: support the prevailing opinion that
: corporation receives on simple d.
e mand the justice the people can hare
ly obtain by any means.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE

Woodrow Wilson's messages will be
read more widely than those of any
other president. They are shorter by
rs per cent, and he says something in
every line. He confines himself to
the great issues before the nation and
leaves details where they belong, with
cabinet and department officers.
The last message had more great
issues to meet than any other, and
the president has concisely but COM
prehensively dealt with them. What
was of the most interest was military
and naval preparedness, a question
which has been brought most emphat-
ically to the front by the European
war.
Mr.. Wilson says, in the first place,
that we are not unprepared. He did
not go into detail in this. He simply
said it, and went on. This was the
best thing he could do. He should
know and does know unless depart
ment officials have grossly deceived
him. To tell how we are prepared is
information that shouldn't be given
out
Mr.. Wilson shows plainly that no
great increase will be made in the
army during his administration. He
does not want the country to build
warships that may be obsolete be-
fore they leave the .shipyards. On
both these subjects, the president
shows sound sense, and we believe
meets the views of the country.
1t is plain by what Mr.. Wilson says
that he desires our citizens to organ
lie and train in large number for ma
tional defense. He wants the gov
eminent to furnish them with arms
and Observation-Disclosures and in
struction. This is proper desire and
one the Star would like to see full
filed. 1t hopes that Congress will
take the necessary steps to see if the
plan can be carried out. Personally
the Star doubts that the people will
are driven into it. They will put it
off until some great power makes an
offensive move; then they will make
wholesale rush that will swamp the
government and cause them to be
butchered by thousands if war fol-
lows.
Mr.. Wilson's desire to impress the
world by our peacefulness is higk
and almost too high for hui
man nature, we fear. The history of
the world shows that good people and
good nations are always imposed on.
We can stand being imposed on to a
considerable extent, and will find it
pays US better than to impose on
other people to any extent. But we
can't stand being run over as we
would have been some months ago if
Germany had quarreled with America
as she did with Russia. While it has
seemed for some years that there is
greater danger of America having
trouble with Germany than with any
other power, except Japan, the Star
does not think that any of them are
so good that they wouldn't take adj
vantage of US if they could and
thought it was to their interest.
