CITY COUNCIL WILL BUY LOT
FOR CIVIC CENTER

A special meeting of the city coun-
Gil was held Wednesday afternoon for
the purpose of considering the pur-
chase of the Dismukes property, and
to consider ways and means for the
purchase of the same.
Those present at the meeting were
Aldermen HUNTER, Roess, Robinson,
Bennett and Knight.
Largely owing to the diligent work
of the city attorney, Mr. Edwin Spen-
GER the city Clerk, Mr. Henry Sis
trunk, and the tax collector, Mr.. w.
w. Clyatt, it was ascertained that the
city would have ample funds in the
treasury which could be used for the
purpose in question, so today the
council will again meet in special ses-
sion for the purpose of conforming to
all the legal requirements and taking
over the property, which will be
used for the purposes already outlin-
ed in these columns.
1t is the best days work that the
mayor and the board of aldermen
have ever done, and when the con-
'templated improvements shall have
been completed it will put Ocala in
the front rank Of Florida cities in
point of civic beauty and utility.

HossoN AND HIS ISSUE

The Independent On. VI the organ
Of the Congregational church, in its
issue of December 4, editorialiy en-
d0rses Congressman Underwood,
against Congressman Hobson. The
editorial reads: I'VE have such an
admiration for the excellent work the
AntfsaIoon league has done, that we
regret 10 see 1t make mistake. At
its recent convention. IL endorsed
Congressman Hobson for senator as
against Congressman Underwood.
The public does not know Mr. Under
wood as a friend OF the saloon. and it
does know Mr.. Hobson as a wild
prophet OF war with Japan and SIAN
derer Of a friendly nation. The fact
that he seeks support as a foe to the
saloon does not justify endorsement
Of him. The urgency OF the conven'
ton for a prohibition amendment to
the constitution introduces an imprac-
ticable and misleading issue"
Commenting on the action Of the
Congregationalist council In endors-
ing nationwide prohibition, the Out
look said, editorially: "one ate of the
council Is difficult to reconcile with
Congregational principles-its en-
dorsement of plan for an amend
ment 10 the national constitution, pro-
hibiting forever the manufacture and
sale OF intoxicating beverages, and
their importation, expectation, and
transportation throughout the United
States. Governor Baldwin of Connec-
ticut, who was a delegate present.
condemned this as incompatible with
the fundamental Amerivcan principle
OF home rule. We believe It Is In the
interest of the most effective restraint
OF the liquor traffic"
The Independent says Of the action
OF the council: That effect in so
hopeless a course Is the best way to
promote temperance we graveIy
doubt. Even the women suffragist
have given up that chimera In their
behalf and turned to state action.
That Is the true policy for either re-
form"

FORT MYERS WELCOME r,

Thomas A. Edison. the great inven-
tor, has a winter home at Fort Myers
but he Is such busy man that he
does not always occupy it even for
part of the time in the winter, but
this year is an exception and he is
accompanied by Henry A. Ford of
automobile fame and John Burroughs
who is a great student of nature.
Fort Myers feels deservedly proud
In having SO distinguished a character
for a winter resident and felt all the
more honored by his bringing two
such notable characters with him and
as they stepped off the train they
were welcomed by two thousand en-.
thusiastic citizens waving banners
and rendering fitting music for SO
suspicious occasion.
These men. deserve the plaudits of
their fellow-men for they have rem.
dered more good to the world in our
estimation than all the soldiers have
ever done in. the past or can ever dc
in the future.

LOOK FOR THE BEAM IN THINE
OWN EYE

In conformity with a mighty good
doctrine. which seems to have almost
gone out OF the life habits of men,
the Winter Garden Times. replying
TO a cryticism Of this bureau, says:
The Eustis Lake Region call our at
tention TO some liquor men over in
Jacksonville who are trying to get
some readers in the state press. II
the Region only knew IL French fe-
male pills do more harm in the world
than whiskey. and he would cut out
that ad az once French female pills
destroy millions OF innocent lives
every year which is $4,000 more, at
least. than whiskey. The publisher
OF the The Times Is not accepting
liquor ads and very few patent medi.
cine ads, but for harmful effects to the
race we would sooner run a page OF
whIskey ads than one inch OF female
pill advertising with the price for
both the same.

This is the sole object of the Bible.
1t is profitable for doctrine, for re-

This is the sole object of the
Church. It's ministry, whether apos-
ties, or prophets, or evangelists, or
pastors, or teachers, was given that
we may come into a perfect manhood,
unto the measure OF the stature of
the fullness of Christ"
Whatever form of doctrine, of wor-

tain this manhood we may use; what
ever does not so help us, we may dis
pense with.

med up in the two words, Follow Me.

CONVlCTS AND CONVICTS.

brand new show The two leading

political party Of the state are for

chief point at issue between them
seems to be as to which one deserves
the most credit for not continuing in
definitely a career of crime that wa
begun under highly promising crcum-
stances.
The story Of Al Jennings is famil-
lar to all readers of contemporary fic-
