OCALA'S WATER PROBLEM
lContinued from Firgt Pagel

the city limits of Ocala runs directly
into that basin called Taylor's Pond.
/ know il is cited that Jacksonville
has her water plant located in a
swamp, and / also know that the for
nation Of the earth in and under that
city is as different TO that of Ocala as
day Is from night. There it is only
a few feet down 10 the water level
and drainage is on top Of the ground.
In Ocala our water level is from 40
to so feet and our drainage is
through the earth rather than on top
of it. Besides in Jacksonville it Is
only a few feet to the quick sand,
which shuts off the surface water com
pletely. Here we go down from 40
10 80 feet through lime rock that is
full of holes and crevices, which readi-
ly admits the surface water. In fact,
can show anyone several places
near here where the water pours down
into the earth for 40 or 60 feet like
pouring over a mill dam.

CITY COUNCIL

There was something doing at the
regular monthly meeting of the city
council last Monday evening, but some
of it very much resembled tempest
in a teapot and if some of the partici-
pants in the mixup did not feel the
worse afterwards for what happened
the spectators who watched the wran-
gle cannot understand why.
When there isn't anything else to
make trouble you may safely rely on
the jitney dance. The Cooper avenae
dance hall is again the bone of con-
tention, many claiming that by reason
of the loud character of the music and
the late hours kept by the place a
great hardship is worked ON the room
ing houses and hotels in that section
and that roomers complain that they
are deprived of their sleep. No de-
cisive action was taken and the entire
matter will be threshed over at the
recessed session next Monday night.
The next meeting will also be called
upon to decide whether Rose Mcdonald
shall be allowed to move a cabin onto
lot belong to Congressman Taylor
who has given his permission, neigh
bors who will be affected having pro-
tested against such action.
The trouble and jealousy between
the hackmen and hotel and rooming
house keepers is about as prolific Of
entertainment as is the dance hall dis
pute, and the old question came up
again last Monday rs to why certain
hacks are given certain backup priv
i!eges at the Rio Grande depot AMI
why someone else is placed . little
further away. Seeing Art Kendrick
and J. w. Brosius present and know
ing the nature of their grievance,
Mayor Thorson stated that rs former
Alderman Kendrick was present with
something to say to the board he would
give Mr.. Kendrick an early hearing.
M. Kendrick really spoke in behalf
of Mr.. Brosius who haals passengers
and baggabe to Mr.. Kendrick's Denver
hotel. He claimed that BrOsius was
diserininated against in favor Of Dea-
CON . bus and the little pusheart of
