A NEW FIRM

One of Ocala's most substantial and
respected colored men, L. C. Smith,
who was raised in Ocala, has opened a
mercantile business in the brick cor
ner building at Orange and EXPOSE
ton STREETS which he built five years
ago and owns.
The business will be operated as
the L. c. Smith company and full
line of drygoods, clothing, shoes, hats
and notions will be carried. The store
will have its formal opening tomor-
row afternoon and will open with a
5000 stock of new and seasonable
merchandise.
L. G. Smith has been in the indus
trial insurance business in Ocala for
eight years, has over six hundred
customers for his company, the Afro
American Insurance company of
Jacksonville. He and his father be-
fore him have owned the valuable
corner on which he is located for the
past twenty-five years and he values
the property at $4,000. The Marion
Furniture company occupies one of
the large stores comprizing half of
the building and is doing a most sue
cessful business there.

Mr.. Cats said in his speech here
that a detective, hired in part by
Governor Trammell and in part by
Mr.. Cats, had discovered that GER
tain lawyer at Jasper, holding an Of
fetal position, had, at the hour of
midnight broken into certain ballot
boxes and changed the ballots. We
call, not on Mr.. Cats, but on Gov
ernor Trammell, to publish this mans
name and give him the punishment he
deserves. This information, it is
claimed, is in the hands of an employee
of Governor Trammell. The governor
will not be doing his duty to the peo-
pie of Florida unless he shall expose
and punish man guilty of such a
crime when the information is so
easily vailable.-Lakeland Telegram.
If you can induce Gov. Trammell to
say anything about it, which isn't
likely, he will probably emphatically
deny the story. This statement of
Cats is probably in line with a num-
Der of others, or nearly all others,
that he is making around the state.
A collection of his remarks made at
various places would probably reveal
the largest assortment of contradic-
tory statements ever made by can

CATS AND AVER

Editor Star: So many exaggerated
reports have been circulated in regard
to my little spat with Mr. Cats at
Pennington that l would like to state
the facts in as few words as possible.
1t was strictly a Cats meeting into
which | butted by accident and had no
notion of saying word, but when Mr.
Cats entire effort was to make peo-
pie believe that the courts in Florida,
from highest to lowest, are all rotten
and corrupt and that Mr.. Knott proved
that he was a man of no principle by
asking or accepting anything from
them, it was just little more than /
could stand, and the people who were
my friends also, very kindly allowed
me to reply in short, polite but Wig
orous speech. | assured Mr.. Cats
that if the courts that are in a better
position to investigate and decide the
matter than any individual, gave him
single vote more than Knott, that
he would certainly get my vote.
In reply to his denuneiation of the
Catholics, | informed him that there
are now living in Jacksonville hun
dreds of people who will testify that
when yellow fever devastated that
city and their panic-stricken relatives
ran off and left them to die that hun
dreds of Catholic nuns came in and
| saved their lives-never asking any
| one whether he was a saint or sinner
and a religion that caused its adher-
ents to walk right into the jaws of
death to relieve suffering humanity
must have some good in it.
The report that | denounced the
Guardians of Liberty is absolutely
false. 1t is secret society of which
| | and other outsiders know but little,
but am sure that the report and gen
eral belief that the purpose of the
Guardians is to disrupt the democratic
party is all bosh. / am sure that no
power on earth could make Senator j.
S. Bitch and other good democrats
in Marion county who are members of
it do anything to disrupt or injure the
democratic party, for they know that
it is the white mans only hope in the
South no matter where he comes
from.
During the primary some Guardians
waited on me and only asked this
question: care you in favor of the
Roman Catholic church controlling the
politics of Florida ?R / replied: 81 am
bitterly opposed to the Catholics or
any other religious denomination hav-
ing anything to do with politics; that
politics and religion are like salt and
sugar, both good separated, but when
mixed make the most nauseating dose

his throat" Alfred Aver.
