GENUINE AMERICANS

Recently, says the Pensacola Jour
nal, the Staats-Zeitung printed the
name of the firm of J. & w. Seligman
in black border on its front page. 1t
did this because this firm was among
the banking houses subscribing to the
loan to England and France. That
the Seligmans are true Americans is
very evident, for the following is the
singing reply they sent the German
paper:
"While not readers of the Stats
Zeitung we are under the impression
that there was no mourning border in
the middle of your front page when
American children and American wo-
men entitled TO the sympathy and
protection of every true American
were, together with their fathers
husbands and brothers, deliberately
and heartlessIy murdered by the sink
ing of the Lusitania. That black
mourning border you seem to have
reserved for American bankers seek
ing to render a disinterested service
to their country by helping to keeT
it's industries going through credits
to its foreign customers"

THE CITY ELECTION

While the wet or dry campaign has
the center of the stage just now, a
great many Ocala people have in
mind the municipal campaign, which
will come to vote week after the
local option election, namely on Dec.
IA.
1t is seldom that an entire ticket
is put out in Ocala, each ward gem
orally electing its candidate without
any reference to the others.
This year, however, that element of
our citizens who are most strongly in
favor of municipal ownership is con-
sidering putting a full ticket of men
pledged to that policy in the field. On
that line, the Star hears the follow
ing ticket extensively mentioned:
First Ward-W. A. Knight.
Second Ward M. Meffert.
Third Ward-D. e. McIver.
Fourth Ward G. A. Nash.
At LARGE. E. Chace.
Mayor-John ID. Robertson.

MADE A MISTAKE

It's The Stars opinion that the city
council has made mistake in hav-
ing the sewerage system EXTENDED
into west instead of into North Ocala.
A great deal of the territory in the
west end in which mains are being
laid is either tenated by undersirables
or not tenanted at all. If any part of
the town could be neglected, it was
that part north of Exposition street
and west of the Seaboard track. On
the other hand, North 0cala is being
rapidly built up by the best class of
people.
AS the contract was let for some
$4,000 less than the amount contem-
plated, the Star suggests that the
council proposes to the contractors
to make bid on extending the sew
erage system to North Ocala. 1t is
an injustice not only to the people of
that section but the entire town to
have them left out of such an impor-
tant part of the municipal plan as the
sewerage system.
Another thing that should be taken
into consideration at once is the
water plant. Our water works are
now used to their full capacity, and
we doubt that they will be able to
furnish the necessary water to drive
the sewage thru the pipes.
This is one of the things that Mr..
Meffert had in mind when he tried
to hurry work on the new plant. His
colleagues have tied his hands for
mighty little reason and nothing is
being done, so next summer, we may
have either a sewerage system that
we can't use, or one that if we use it
will choke for lack of water. In one
event, the peoples money will be
wasted, in the other, their health will
be imperiled. Stopping work on the
water plant, while academic discus
sions go on in regard to the various
sites, suits few interested parties,
but it is mighty bad for the people of
the city in general.

ida producers of lumber generally are
more than gratified with the present
state Of affairs in the industry. Mills
which We're closed down as the result
of the collapse in prices felt every
where from the falling off in demand
soon after the European war was de-
clared, are steadily resuming opera
ton, and those plants which have
been running are now working with
increased vigor. In fact, the lumber
men of Florida, as a general propo-
sition, have about as many orders for
immediate future delivery as they
care to handle. The situation is
gratifying, indeed, according to one
well qualified to speak on the lumber
situation.

Luke McLuke Says:

When thirtyyearold maiden finds
that she can't catch handsome ath-
Iete she slows up and begins paying
some attention to the lads on crutches
When man hates you he has a

when woman hates you she smiles
sweetly when she meets you, although
she could be arrested for what she
thinks of you.
Every now and then man who Is
safe and sane about other matters viii
fall in love with woman who is al
ready married to another man.
The lad who whines that a woman
drove him to drink is liar. No man is
born without thirst.
Maybe this would be happier world
If things were reversed and it cost $500
to get married and only So to get di-
vorce.
After sitting down and being honest
with yourself you will admit that your
fool friends cause you more trouble
than your enemies.
One reason why father likes to move
into another house Is because he knows
that the day after mother gets moved
I'm she will discover some other house
that she likes better.
A woman never realizes how much
she loves man until she discovers
that some other woman also loves him.
When a girl has shown an interest
In you and she meets you on the street

TRAINING GROUND FOR
A BIG LEAGUE TEAM

Owing principally to the constant
and energetic work of Manager Hun
ter of the Ocala Baseball Team and
some of his enthusiastic helpers, there
is fair chance that Ocala will be the
training ground next spring of one of
the big league teams.
A dispatch from Chicago to the
Star Friday morning told that the
White Sox Chicago Americans) had
decided to come to Florida, and Ocala
would probably be their objective
point. Saturday afternoon, Mr.. Hun
ter received letter from H. P. Spar
row, manager of the New York Amer
leans, asking what Ocala had to offer
in the way of inducements for his
club to train here.
0cala is not going to offer any in
ducements except a good training
ground, good hotel accommodations,
central location and excellent rail-
road connections. These however
have considerable weight, and so il
needn't be wondered at il one of these
famous teams is practicing on our
diamond next spring.
Mr.. Hunter is well known among
the baseball and railroad men, and he
has availed himself to the utmost OF
his acquaintance. Of a certainty, he
has made the baseball magnates sit
up and take notice of Ocala, which
place they didn't know was on the
map before; and with his energy and
persistence, if properly backed up by
our people, he will yet succeed in OBJ
tanning for Ocala a national reputa-
ton among the lovers of the national
sport.
Charlie Hunter is a great believer
in baseball, and has in large degree
the gift of imparting his enthusiasm
to other people. If he never does
anything else for the city, the inter
est he has revived and work he has
done for the game, despite some
rather discouraging circumstances
will entitle him to place in the frs
rank of Ocala's public-spirited men.

FLORIDA THEIR FAyoRITE

Tampa Tribune: A dispatch from
Chicago states that the American
League baseball club of that city has
decided to train in Florida next
spring. Ocala is mentioned as the
most likely place and it is probable
that arrangements will be made for
the White Sox to spend their training
season in that city.
Ocala is admirably located for this
purpose. Since the first visit of a
big league baseball club to this state,
the number of such clubs training in
Florida has increased annually. 1t is
likely that dozen or more clubs will
train in Florida next spring.

The Times Union runs a poem about
a homespun dress, which causes read
ers to wonder if the paper viii next
pull something else up to date, like
Moses experiences on Mount Sinai
st. Petersburg Independent.
If the T.-U. or any other paper was
to print a story about Moses and
Mount Sinai, it would be real news to
most folks. People today are not
very well posted on Christ and the
Apostles, and have plumb forgotten
there ever was any Moses.

While our ball park is good enough
for local work, it isn't in sufficiently
good shape for the practice of big
league team. Several improvements
will have to be made before any of
the national ball clubs will come here.
Our people should cheerfully assist
Manager Hunter to raise the compar-
atively small amount needed. Tt
won't be wasted, even if the big
teams stay away, for it will pay
Ocala well to become the baseball
center of this section, with teams
coming here to play from all the
neighboring towns.

The friends of Mr.. H. M. Hampton

Mr.. Hampton is a frst-rate lawyer,

to add that if elected he will make a
