this town and county that was both
accurate and comprehensive. In
every public enterprise and function
that comes along, he has an impor-
tant part. You can't bring up any
thing, from playing Santa Claus to
the children to entertaining the pres
dent of the United States, but what
he knows how to start it, and carry it
thru, if he is halfway supported.
And he is the greatest obtainer and
retainer of publicity for this section
it ever had. No matter where he goes,
he can and does interest people in and
inform them of Ocala and Marion
county.
So, lets rally to the colors and give
our Board of Trade and it's secretary
all the help we can. So will we help
one another, which has been the chief
element in the science of progress
since men came down out of trees
and began to walk on their hind legs.

world suffers from the ambition and
egotism of the Teutons. What we
will be suffering from ten years
from today, only God knows and he
won't tell. If we be not the most en-
tirely hopeless set of fools on this
planet, we will so prepare our coun-
try that no other nation or COM
bine of nations will dare to make the
attempt. Our main safety now is the
hatred for each other of European
powers, but self interest may cause
them to make up and turn on us. No
truer words were ever spoken than
the advice of Theodore Roosevelt to
speak softly and carry a big stick. It's
a tremendous big stick this country
can carry if it will, and it should not
delay beginning to cut one a day
longer than absolutely necessary.

WHY is THE DELAY?

More than two weeks ago the street
committee of the city council was in
structed by the council, pending per-
manent remedying of the trouble by
opening South Fourth street, to do
what could be done to temporarily
relieve the deplorable condition, DUR
ing heavy rains, about the primary
school house, adjacent private prop
erty and at the intersection of South
Fourth and Sanchez streets.
Nothing has been done. Another
heavy rain came yesterday afternoon,
just before the primary school turn
ed out. Water ran over the yard,
over the sidewalks and into yards of
adjacent property and took the side
walks for a creek bed. At the corner
of South Fourth and Sanchez streets
today there is a pond that you can
float rowboat on.
The children had to climb and wade
around to try to keep out of the wa
ter. Most of these children, as well
as several hundred from the high
school who passed that way and came
across east of the primary building
from the high school, had to wade
water to get home. How long will
this condition of affairs be allowed to
exist? Would any other city stand
for it?
The business manager of the Star
made strong talk at the meeting of
the council two weeks ago, but he
was not talking for himself alone,
having in mind the hundreds of
school children. Tt is not a private
grievance, or a detriment to the
property of the private individuals,
but to the property of the patrons
and school children of the city.
In the language of the Bingville
Bugle, "Can't nothing be did,"

A number of the Stars readers,
when they perused that story about
the prospective partition of America
in Tuesdays Star were inclined to
think it was one of the editors April
fools. We can assure our friends
that the editor isn't writing any April
fools these days. The April fool of
two years ago would be tame and un-
interesting now beside what we can
obtain of the real truth that trickles
meagerly over the wires. The steady
old Associated Press sent US the par
tition story, and anybody who has
kept up with the expression of Euro
pean opinion knows there is as much
foundation for it as there is for any
other policy that national or interna-
tional greed views as something to
be desired, and to be carried out if
possible. Two years ago we were
discussing Germany's idea of driving
thru to the Aegean and the Persian
gulf just as we might discuss the
partition of America today. We
thought it was possible, but improb-
able-but today the attempt is being
made, and our country and all the

ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING
OF TEMPERANCE ADVOCATES

A well-attended meeting of the
temperance leaders of Marion coun-
ty was held at Yonge's hall this
morning. Representative men from
all over the county were present, and
all evinced enthusiasm in the cause
and a firm determination to do all
possible to win.
Mr.. w. T. Gary presided over the
meeting, and Mr.. Baxter earn took
the notes.
Among those present were Messrs.
w. T. Gary, Baxter earn, George L.
Taylor, DIR. A. L. Izlar, DR.. E. Van
Hood, M. M. Little, D. S. WEIGH, G.
w. Smith, F. E. Harris, L. M. Muir
ray, J. H. Benjamin, of Ocala; C. M.
earn, Smith and Cromartie of Red
dick; Douglass of Shady; Freyermuth
of Berlin; John Rogers of Graham
vile; j. T. Hutchins of Romeo; Nit
chell of Summerfeld; Bryant of Belle
view; Stevens of Spar; Cuthill of
Martel; Crosby of Citra.
Brief addresses were made by
nearly all present, and all seemed
confident of success.
Committees were appointed for all
precincts, they in turn to report to
the central committee. Plans are
being made and the temperance peo-
pie may be assured that the work
will be carried on steadily to election
day.

Been officially decided nobody in
particular is to blame for the killing
of that Charleston newspaper report
er. Course not. When men carry
guns around on their persons it is a
natural and inevitable sequence that
somebody will get killed. No partic-
ular blame at all.-St. Petersburg
Times.
The reporter had no business to go
into that crowd without gun. If he
had had one, drawn it and backed
against the wall, he probably wouldn't
have been hurt or had to hurt any
body else. A good gun is good
thing for a good man to have in a
gang of ruffians.
