that very soon they began TO be refused

that were lucky enough to have obtain.

were definitely refused entered the san.

"To understand where these large
numbers came from one must keep IN
mind that the standing army Of Ger
many is only about per cent Of the
population Of es,0oo.oOO souls. Now,
the number OF young men Of twenty
is also very nearly per cent OF the
population. As the military service for
the great majority lasts two years, the
standing army is not much more than
half a per cent OF the population. The
rest are free from military service.
Among these there Is still large per

The Ocala evening star., 1915-02-02
OCALA HAS A LOoK-IN

1t looks like Ocala has chance to
establish spring practice ground for
one of the big-league baseball teams.
"Wild Bill" Donovan of the New
York Americans, blew into town Mon
day afternoon, coming here specially
for a look at Ocala's facilities for
spring practice ground.
Mr.. Donovan was Immediately taken
in charge by Secretary Rooney, Man
ager Hunter, Norton Davis and Frank
Harris, Jr., and in Mr.. Davis car was
shown as much of Ocala as possible.
He was taken of course, out to the
ball park, which, thanks to Mr.. Hun
ter's constant and skillful work, is in
good condition; also to the golf links,
and even out to Silver Springs.
He had to be hustled from point to
point, as he only had three hours; and
left on the limited for New York.
Mr.. Donovan seemed to be well
pleased with all he saw. In conversa-
tion with Secretary Rooney he highly
and convenience to the hotels; he was
impressed with Silver Springs and the
golf links, which are among the finest
in the South. He also plainly said
that Columbus was not considered as
practice ground, and that so far no
understanding has been entered into
with any place, which is obvious, as he
would not else have come to Ocala.
Mr.. Donovan met Messrs. L. w.
Duval, L. r. Chazal, Clarence Camp,
Steve Jewett and several other base
ball enthusiasts, all of whom are
pledged to do their best to induce the
team to come here.
Several of our leading citizens saw
Secretary Rooney Monday evening
and gave him assurance that the mon
ey required would be forthcoming il
the team elects to come to Ocala, so
all things considered, Ocala has fail
chance to become of national baseball
Importance in the next few months.

delegate their powers to other men in
carrying out the workings of their
vast interests. And often these men
are unworthy. They do not represent
their employers but misrepresent
them. They abuse their powers and
impose on the men above as we'll as
the men below. 1t is difficult for the
man highest up to get at the exact
truth. It is natural for him to put
more trust in the man he has delegat-
ed to look after his interests than in
the man who seems to be, fighting him.
We had an instance in this state in
Mr.. .Flagler. When he first came to
Florida, and was able to be about
among all his enterprises, and keep in
touch with all his men, there was no
trouble. He was kind and a just
man as well as an enterprising one.
AS he grew old, the work he had
planned increased and had to be put
into the hands of men who sometimes
abused their powers. That is why the
East Coast railway was so conducted
for years that the old residents re-
gretted the passing of the days when
two steamboats, a week were all the
connection they had with the outside
world.
It will be well for America when
we arrive at that condition where
there will be no colossal fortunes at
one end of society, and no need for
colossal charity at the other.

GOOD ROADS

Mr. W. D. Carn, chairman of the
board of county commissioners, was
interviewed by Star reporter on the
subject of good roads, the other day.
Mr. earn says he is willing to take
part in a movement to bond the
county for good roads as soon as it is
definitely decided what is the proper
material to use. He says the county
can't afford to waste any money in
making experiments. Brick is beyond
our means, beside, he does not think
brick is the best material for country
roads, as it is too hard for the feet
of horses and mules.
He has some hope of the sand oil
road, and says the board will expert
ment with it as much as possible. The
opinion is growing that a mixture of
clay and sand is the best material,
but it is difficult to decide the proper
proportions, as an excess of the one
spoils both.
Mr.. earn says that he will. try to
educe the board to put on a repair
force, consisting of couple of men
rnd a team for every stretch of road
cf twenty miles or more. He says
that such a force going over the
Dads constantly, and keeping the
holes filled, would do more to keep
them in shape than any other plan,
and it seems to the Star that he is
right. There has been much good
work done on the roads in the past
few years, notably on the Dunnellon,
Lake Weir and Silver Springs roads,
but as soon as the road force leaves
one road, and goes to another, with
the first big rain holes appear, and
continue to grow worse, until in two
or three years the road is as bad as
ever.
The Star thinks Mr.. earn is correct
in his ideas on this subject. We need
/ a bond issue for good roads, but we
can't afford to throw any money
away in experiments.

FLoR1DA FoR THE FAIR

Times Union: We do not know any
matter concerning which the Florida
press has been as nearly unanimous
as it is in support of a state fair for
Florida to be held in Jacksonville. All
the papers except one or two take to
this idea with enthusiasm, and only
three or four suggest different To-
cality.
Among this three or four the idea
is that a more central place might
be selected, but since men now travel
on railroads or steamboats, the most
central place for all practical pur-
poses is the place of easiest access,
and no one will deny that Jackson
vile fills the bill in this respect.
But the chief reason for holding the
fair here, aside from the fact that the
movement this year originated here, is
that practically all visitors to Florida
come through Jacksonville. From this
place they scatter all over the state
and vastly more of them would see
the fair here than would see it any
where else.
The chief idea of the fair is that
it would bring together such a dis
play of Florida's products and Flori-
da's resources as would convince any
who may see it that the state pre-
sents the very best opportunity for
homeseekers. If the fair is to secure
immigration then the place for it is
where it would be seen by the largest
number of visitors to the state.
The fair would do good in other
lines. It would improve the live
stock of the state and would tend to
better agricultural methods. But in
would do this as well in one locality
sc in another.
The evidences of support that are
coming in from all over the state and
/ the enthusiasm with which the work
is being undertaken here furnish a
E grantee that we will have here next
i fell display that will be highly in
teresting to visitors and of inestima-
bic benefit to the state
