 On the approach of storms the us- ualy clear water in some of the wells Of southern Minnesota becomes cloudy or milky; in others it becomes bright yellow or deep red. Among the wells the water of which becomes milky before storms are some in section of Scott County; he wells the water of which becomes most discolored are in the vicinity of Waterville, in Lescueur County. The milkiness is owing to silt or clay; the yellow and red particles are thought to be due to fine particles of iron oxide.

CITY MARKET LEASED
BY CHERO-COLA PEOPLE

The managers of the Chero-Cola
Company inform the Star that they
leased the city market building for a
term of five years, and as soon as
their machinery can be installed they
will begin operations.
The Star is glad to see this industry
secured for Ocala 1t is line of bus
mess that will not be hampered very
much by freight tariffs. By locating
in Ocala it has secured a good distri-
buting point, and, as it will be home
industry, the Star hopes our people
will foster it and help it grow by US
ing its excellent product in prefer
ence to similar beverages manufac-
tured elsewhere.
The Chero-Cola Company AMI .,.e
city council, in an informal gathering
of the latter, got together this morn
ing on the plan of leasing the now
vacant and unused city market build
ing to the Chero-Cola people for a
period of five years at rental that
was satisfactory to both parties. The
action of the council will be formally
ratified and a lease executed at the
next regular meeting of that body. II
the meantime, the Chero-Cola people
will begin at once to move their ma
chinery into the building and to make
such changes necessary to adapt the
building to their uses. They will
push the work forward and get all
their machinery installed and the
plant in running operation in a very
short time. Mr.. Layton and Mr..
Lane will remain on the job, and
their families and others who are to
take part in the company will come
to Ocala shortly. Ocala welcomes this
company as one of the first of the
good things to come to us for the
new year.

The Star doubts the report that the
Hungarians are trying to make a sep
arate peace with the allies. The Hun
garians are a brave and chivalrous
people. They have been oppressed by
the Austrians for the last three CEN
turies, and in return have on two or
three occasions saved the Austrian
empire from destruction. They are
getting the worst end of this war,
but are not likely to leave the other
division of the dual monarchy in the
lurch. Pennsylvania, the province
coveted by Roumania, is part of
Hungary, but Russia would probably
be glad to see the Hungarians keep
it if they would secede from Aus
tria and set up for themselves.

located for such a fair than Jackson
vile. However, if Jacksonville has
the enterprise to secure the fair,
while the other towns haven't, far be
it from the Star to do any dog in the
manger business. It would be better
to have big state fair in Jackson
vile than not have any. And as for
turning Jacksonville over to Georgia,
there is nothing doing in Ocala. With
all the faults of Joyous Jax, we love
her still, and don't love her any the
less because she won't keep still.

Yesterdays Star contained a. COM
plant that the city council had en-
ployed the American Auditing Com
pany TO examine the city's accounts
instead of turning the work over to
an Ocala man. Mr.. Chas. w. Hunter,
ex-president of the city council, says
that the work was offered to the only
certified accountant in the city, Mr..
D. G. Stiles of the Commercial Bank,
and he declined because he had not
time to attend to it. He also says
that the city cannot market its bonds
unless its accounts are audited by a
certified accountant, and this is one
very vital reason why the American
Audit men were employed The Star
is always from Missouri; however, it
is also always willing to be shown, SO
it accepts Mr.. Hunters explanation
and passes it along.

The innovation of employing a
city physician is succeeding admir-
ably in Ocala. The present incum-
bent is most efficient and takes great
interest in his work and the principal
eof the primary school reports that
the health of her scholars has never
been SO good. The vigilant outlook
kept on all the little chaps prevents
any case of whooping cough, measles
or any of the diseases children are SO
liable to from spreading; and it seems
like 'epidemics of this character are
: past history for Ocala.

ANOTHER GREAT
OPPORTUNITY FOR OCALA

AS will be seen by the special dis
patch on the first page of today's
paper Ocala has a fine opportunity to
secure a big league baseball team for
spring practice. Manager Donovan
of the Yankees" will be here soon
on tour Of inspection Of southern
cities, and the one that looks best
to him will secure his team.
The yankees" the New York
Americans. is one of the old standard
teams, but it has recently changed
hands and been reorganized. 1t was
transferred from Farrell to Rupert
and Huston. The consideration was
about half million dollars, so it can
be seen the Yankees. are some team.
Frank Chance, called "the peerless
leader" managed the team the first
half of last season, and Roger Peck
inpaugh, manager for the last half,
is now spending the winter in Day
tona.
A little extra hustle would proba-
bly, secure this team for Ocala, and
having it here would be very likely
TO cause some practice games of
national interest to be played on the
Ocala diamond. At present the
Brooklyn Nationals will be at Day
tona, the Louisville Colonels at Lake
land, the Philadelphia Nationals at
st. Petersburg, the Chicago Cubs, at
Tampa, the Philadelphia Athletics in
Jacksonville, and the indianapolis
team at Orlando.
With big league team in Ocala, it
would almost certainly arrange for
some practice games with one or
more of the teams outside it's own
league; others might reciprocate with
the result that Ocala, being a central
point and having a fine diamond,
might be the scene of several games
that would bring many people to our
city. Manager Hunter of the Ocala
baseball team, is doing his share by
putting the diamond in first-class
condition; if the people generally will
back him up he will likely put Ocala
on the national baseball map.

According to communication re-
ceived by the Star from the state
railroad commission, the Ocala North
ern and Ocala Southwestern railways
are allowed to use their own discre-
ton as to whether they shall help
build and use the new union passen-
ger station. construction of which is
to begin November l. As the former
road is in the hands of receiver
and the latter does no passenger bus
mess, the decision of the commission
is Just.

The Star directs the attention of
its readers to the report of Mr.. Roess,
former chairman of the light and wa
ter committee, to the city council, re-
garding the amount of wood burned
at the, electric plant. 1t will be re-
membered that some days ago, the
Florida Power Company, in CRITICS.
ing report of Mayor Robertson,
figured out that the city had lost over
1000 cords of wood in twelve months
in making current. The Florida Pow
er Company did not intend to imply
any dishonesty on the part of the city
officials by this statement. 1t sub
mitted its figures as a part of its ar
gument for the superior efficiency of
its hydro-electric plant in producing
current. Unfortunately, one of the
big papers of the state, seeing the
power company's figures, and not be-
ing familiar with local conditions,
took it for granted that some graft
was being unearthed, and published
an article accordingly. The Star was
aware of the reason for the seeming
discrepancy, but waited for an au-
thorized statement before making
any comments.

There is entirely too much CUFF in
the press of the country about the
British searching American ships be-
cause they want to keep down our
merchant marine, which they fear
will compete with theirs when the
war is over. It isn't likely that the
British are thinking much about our
merchant marine at this time IL
they are, they are more familiar with
our shipping laws than most of the
cornfed American editors of the in
terror, and know there is not any
chance of America establishing a
large merchant marine until the said
laws are changed. American busi-
ness men are not going to put their
money into the ocean-carrying trade
until there is good profit. in it, which
there never will be as long as the
ships of other nations can be manned
and sailed for half the cost that ours
can. The truth of the matter is that
the British, French and Russians are
at present doing all they can to keep
munitions of war from reaching the
Germans, Austrians and Turks, and
are thinking mighty little about
ocean commerce after the war. II
we were in their place, we would dc
the same as they are doing, if we
could.

A communication from Fire Chief
Chambers was read. 1t recited the

the approval of the council as all
take the position that the expendi-

equipment to save hundreds of dol
lars worth of property is a good prop
osition. Chief Chambers was present
and advised moving the hydrant at
the corner of May and Osceola streets
to more accessible point Chief
Chambers also reported that com
paratively small expenditure on the
chemical auto would put it past any
possibility of breaking down at a
serious time. These matters were all
to the fire committee with
power to act, the council believing
that our fire equipment should be Al

Report of Alderman Roess

Report of Alderman R0ess
Mr.. Roess read the following com
munication which was ordered filed:
Gentlemen: As chairman of your
light and water committee, during
the year 1914, beg to make few
statements with reference to the
amount and cost of fuel being used
at the electric light plant.
1t seems that the honorable mayor
requested the superintendent of the
electric light plant to make a twenty
four hour test in order TO find out
just how much wood was consumed
at the plant in twenty-four hours. Mr..
Caldwell, superintendent of the cleo
trio light plant, advises me that at
the request of the mayor, the wood
was measured on the night on which
the plant carries the heaviest load
that is, Saturday night-the wood
consumed between twelve O'Clock
noon on Saturday and twelve O'Clock
noon on Sunday was measured, and
found to be fourteen cords. This test
was made this month and not last
month, and the figures which Mr..
Caldwell furnished to the mayor were
based on multiplying fourteen cords
by thirty-One days in December, and
arriving at the amount of wood con-
sumed in December in this manner.
All this was done without the consent
or even the knowledge of your light
and water committee. The mayor
submitted this information to the
council in the form of a newspaper
clipping, along with his first mes
sage to the new council, with the re-
quest that the city clerk read same
to the council.
1t is not reasonable to suppose that
q test made on the electric light plant
during its heaviest load, under ideal
conditions, would be accurate at all
when applied to the month of Decem-
Der, or when applied, as the Florida
Power Company has done, to the en-
tire year of 1914 In this case the
figures will not hold out, for the rea-
son following: The wood selected for
the test was largely composed of all
heart fat lightwood, whereas, during
part of the year, especially during
watermelon season, the quality of
wood Is very much inferior to all
heart fat ightwood.
On account of the general business
depression, caused by the European
war, the electric light plant has been
able to secure, during the past ninety
days, very excellent quality of
wood, and this was the wood used in
making the test.
Second. Twelve hours of the test
was made on a Sunday, when the
Ocala Steam Laundry is using no
steam from the electric light plant.
The Ocala Steam Laundry pays to
the electric light department $50
week, or 1880 per year for steam,
which the electric light department
supplies.
Third. During this test the new
$50 K. w. generator and engine was
operated for seventeen out of the
twenty-four hours. This engine being
a more modern engine, is much more
