SOME GOOD SPORT

A card received this afternoon by a
friend i'm Ocala from Messrs. William
Hooker and Thurston Drake, his
brother-in-law, in Colorado, has pic
ture of those gentlemen standing at
each end of string of game that
might well turn the head of a less
seasoned sportsman. There were a
dozen fine mountain trout and 25
specimens of mountain grouse, or
prairie hens, the result of a day with
rod and gun near their camp.

One good thing about the Atlantic
Coast Line is that it has such an ex-
cellent schedule for Ocala boys who
may have inspirations to the north of
here. A young man can leave Ocala
on No. 40, reach his best girls home
at Gainesville, or any place between,
spend pleasant afternoon and return
on No. 9. If she lives north of
Gainesville and south of Raiford, he
can go up on No. 10 in the morning
and have a lovely half day.

BELGIANS SAY THEY
ARE TAXED TOO MUCH
Complaint Against Germany Is
Filed Here by Envoy From
War-Ridden Nation.

Complaint against imposition by Ger
many of excessive taxes on the Bel
;ans has been laid before the State
Department by L. Havenith. Minister
from Belgium. The complaint calls for
no action by the United States, and
was merely laid before this and other
neutral powers as a matter of diplo-
matte procedure. much as charges OF
atrocities and other violations of inter-
national law have been filed with the
Washington government.
Minister Havenith indicated that the
complaint would be made public soon
The complaint sets forth that the new
taxes levied by Germany, coming in
addition to the heavy indemnities de-
manded, will crush tie people Of Bel
gium under a heavy burden of debt.
The complaint cites provisions OF The
Hague convention to justify Belgium's
contention that the German govern
ment is violating international law IN
making tic citizens OF conquered ter
ritcry contribute so heavily to the cost
Of the war.
The Washington times., 1916-01-22

ten billions Of dollars Of indemni-
ties at the end Of this war. and that
Britain, France, Russia, and Italy
ply them. What Of it7 They will
be able to pay that bill, spread over
a long period, as easily as the
France of 1871 was to- pay the mil
liards Of francs that Bismarck
thought would ruin her. The CONNER
cial and industrial restoration of the
allied countries would be made abso-
lutely necessary; while Germany
would find herself fattening of the
frugality Of her late enemies, decay
ing, overconfdent, and staggering
into new trouble that would find her
enemies ready as they we're not last
time.
Conquest at arms does not change
the course of empire for very long.
Who is so young as not to recall that
yesterday Japan and Russia were at
each others throats?
Well, today they are allies.
