diers to Journey Through
American Territory.

they will re-enter Mexico, has been
granted by the United States govern

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-Ar-
rangements for passage through
American territory of unarmed Car
rama troops to reinforce the garri-
son at Aqua Prieta were made after
recognition of the de facto govern
ment, It was learned here tonight. A
precedent was established during the
Madero regime, when the Taft ad.
ministration allowed Mexican troops
to cross Texas to reach points mac
cessible by Mexican railroads.
Since the United States is now dealing
with recognized government in Mexico no
state Of war exists there so far as the
American government Is concerned and
the movement OF the Carranza troops is
looked upon as a move to prevent fight
ing.

weeks to local actions. isolated at

launched a general offensive along
the Tyrol and the Trentino frontiers

Russia has increased the pressure on

The fact that Russian vessel partici-

Bulgarians that they are fighting Serbia

mind you have one of the greatest
ideas presented to you in this move
ment that possibly could be brought
before you. Your Board of Trade,
and every man, woman, and child in
the City of Palatka should get behind
this movement.
when you have men who have
come to your community like James
r. Murphy, coming from the scene
of action, as he does, brought up I'M
der the tutelage he has had, brought
up by one of the most successful bus
mess men and real estate men in the
country, and when you figure the con-
nections that Mr.. Murphy has sever
ed to come among you people of the
Gem City and cast his future with
you, and when you hear him say that
he endorses this movement and feels
certain it can be carried to success if
handled on high plane, it seems to
me that it is time for you good peo-
pie of Palatka to wake up, sit up and
take notice.
eff you will stop and think of the
location of your beautiful city, of its
surroundings, its possibilities, its at.
tractive features, there is not man
who would not want to put his shoul-
der to the wheel in a movement of
this kind, if he is the right kind Of a
man and has Palatka and this section
of Florida at heart.

fore he stopped, Just take into con-
sideration what Orange Springs will
look like with it's concrete walks, cleo

cooperate with you if you show a dis
position to help yourself.
Richard Edmunds said of Silver
Springs, which will be one of your
attractions, that it was not only an
asset to Florida and Marion county,
but to the Nation. He said if it was
in California the State of California
would sit up and take notice, and if
in New England it would take reg
iment of soldiers to keep the people
in line who would go there.
"Make this as big as what Mr.. Ed
munds claims for Silver Springs. You
can do it.
SIN closing let me state that Ma
rion County will cooperate with you.
She is for anything that builds up
Palatka or Putnam County. Such
improvement is far reaching and will
benefit Marion County, her sister
county. l say this for we are linked
to you like the Siamese Twins and il
our relationship was severed l am
sure Marion County will pine away"

all right to talk about figures and

hard matter to put over.
"In talking the plan over it occur
red to me that Mr.. Edward Dewitt,
formerly General Manager of the

partment, would be the proper man

club, told why and how he became
interested.

of good, cut over timber lands which
we divided into 1885 parcels, all of

It's wonderful idea and l trust you
good people of this splendid city will
make it fact. Take into considera-

have. Then there is the Dixie High

what the Dixie Highway will mean.
The object of it was to take in Chi

bring people to Florida, which is the
great terminal station of the tour
lists that are to come South over this
highway.
