WHY IS SENATE HOLDING UP
INDUSTRIAL COMISH REPORT?
Washington, April S.-Many weeks
ago the house of representatives
passed a resolution ordering the
printing of 100000 copies of the final
report of the comm on industrial re-
Iations and 10000 copies of the tes-
timOny taken by the commission.
About four months has passed
since this resolution went through
the house and it is still held up in the
senate, largely as the result of the
hostile attitude of Sen. Hoke Smith
of Georgia, with clique Of reaction
airy senators of both parties acting
in sympathy with him. When the
matter comes before the senate,
where practically all business Of this
character is done by unanimous con-
sent, Smith or one of his assistants
objects to it's consideration.
The investigation made by the in
dustrial relations comm cost the peO-
ple S25O,OOO. 1t is the first genuine
exposition of industrial conditions in
the United States ever accomplished
by an official body. Thousands of
people have written to members of
the house and senate begging for
copies of the commissions report,
only to be informed that it is not yet
in print.
Congress is nearing that period
when business becomes cOngested
and nothing can get proper attention,
so, if this important report is to be
printed, now is the time for the peo-
pie who want it to make known their
wishes in emphatic terms to their
senators, demanding that Hoke
Smith shall not be permitted longer
to block it.

Washington today awaited arrival of
Germany's preliminary report on
inquiries made by Ambassador &C.

international relations between Ger

tent upon attitude expressed in this
report.
With President Wilson down the
Potomac on weekend cruise and &C.
rard's dispatch not expected to reach

Aid. Wallace. "The little fellows in

a conscientious man and have no
doubt that he regards Cats as the
nominee. We however know a con-
siderable number of other conscien-
tious people who believe Knott had a
right to make his contest, and will
not consider Cats the nominee un-
less said contest is decided in his
favor. As for that st. Leo matter,
the burden of evidence is against Mr..
Cats. Personally we heard Mr.. Cats
make on the platform a statement
that had been proven in the courts to
be untrue, and it's our opinion that
he knew it was untrue when he made
it. We will accept Mr.. Blitch's as
surance that Mr.. Cats will black the
eye of any person who disputes his
word, if he thinks he can do so safe
ly. He and a number of his sup
porters have been prolific of promises
to, black peoples eyes, throw rotten
eggs, march to Tallahassee with guns
on their shoulders, ETC.; in fact they
have had monopoly of that sort of
conversation throughout the cam
paign. We are not going to hunt up
Mr.. Cats and invite him to black
either of our eyes, but we always
tote our eyes around with us and any
body who thinks he really must
black one of them can easily obtain
the chance. AS to what might hap
pen after that, we make no prophe-
cies. The Stars columns are wide
open to Mr.. Bitch. Let him next ex-
plain why his candidate makes inde-
cent insinuations about high school
girls.

The st. Petersburg Times is very
moderate and reasonable in, the fol-
lowing:
3Rev. Cats may have been justified
as he claims, when he Killed a mig
ger but is it not rather horrible to
think of governor of our state hav-
ing done such thing, nevertheless !?
Are there not many who voted for
him who could not have done so if
they had known this? And is it not
sad commentary on the recent cam
paign that $4,000 Floridians could
have voted for man for governor
who had killed niger and they
did not know it? How little they
really knew of the man they would
make governor"

In the last fe wdays the Star has
presented enough facts and figures to
convince any reasonable person that
it is Ocala's own fault that she is
suffering from excessive freight
rates. We have a navigable river
open to seaport; we have per-
fectly good boat lying tied up at the
wharf at Silver Springs because our
business men lack the enterprise and
cooperation to keep it running. We
have business enough to keep half a
dozen such boats busy. If our town
had half the git-up-and-g possessed
by thousands of prairie dog villages
and tank towns in other parts of the
world it would have awaited itself of
its bountiful opportunities long ago.

the Star is a piece of spite work is
substantiated. The gentleman who
brings the suit was overheard talk

on the witness stand why he fur
nishes the sinews of war to carry on
