Do you remember who was presi-
dent of the well-known u. S. when we
were paid in clearing house certi-
ficates? You're right. It was Roose-
velt.T Tampa Tribune.
Money has been scarcer in this part
of the state for two solid years than
it was during the two or three months
of the 1907 panic. Marion county
people were not acquainted with
clearing house certificates. Their
banks paid the money right along. We
think it is extremely likely that there
was a time for several months after
the war began that the people of the
United States would have been mighty
glad to get clearing house certificates,
il it hadn't been for the federal re-
serve law And while that law was
passed by democratic Congress it is
only just to say that it originated with
Aldrich of Rhede Island, who was one
Of the most stalwart republicans who
ever sat in the Senate.

FORGET YOUR ACHES

Stiff knees, aching limbs, lame back
make life burden. If you suffer
from rheumatism, govt, lumbago,
get a bottle of Sloan's Linz
iment, the universal remedy for pain.
Easy 20 apply; it penetrates without
rubbing and soothes the tender flesh.
Cleaner and more effective than mus
sy ointments or poultices. For strains
or sprains, sore muscles or wrenched
resulting from strenuous
exercise, Sloan's Liniment gives quick
relief. Keep it on hand for emergen-
cies. At your druggist, 25c. !

TOLD you sOs

a few months ago, the unguarded
condition of the railroad crossings in
this city was brought out in discus
sion, the conscience of the council
woke up and it looked for while
like it was going to do its duty by the
people. Then came the railroad men
with their usual bunch of smooth
talk and promises they had no inten-
ton of keeping. They greatly ex-
tolled the effectiveness of their sys-
tenn in other towns of sending flag
men ahead of the trains at crossings
and said they would put their system
in effect in Ocala if the council would
not require them to put in gates. The
council accepted the promise-it's
strange how ready an Ocala council
is to accept railroads promise
and did nothing, and the railroads did
nothing.
Sunday, at 4:10 p. M, Star re-
porter stood at the Exposition street
crossing and watch in hand waited
for the northbound Seaboard limited
to come in. 1t was on time as usual,
and from the instant it came in sight
nearly a mile away until it crossed
the street was just rs seconds. 1t
came over the Dunnellon road cross
ing almost at full speed and did not
begin to slack up until it was about
$50 yards Of Exposition street. It
crossed that street at rate of at
least ten miles an hour, maybe more
than that. As everybody knows who
is familiar with that crossing, no one
can see a train there until it is al
most at the street. Had an auto or
wagon appeared on the crossing, the
train could not possibly have been
stopped until it had gone many yards
beyond the street.
And SO it goes on from year to year.
When it comes to a railroad, the
mayor and city council of Ocala have
not the bravery and public spirit to
protect their friends, perhaps their
relatives, from not only impending
but present danger. They accept the
tpromises Of the railroad men, when
they know by experience that there is
never any intention of making the
promises good.
Some one of these days, there will
be a fearful tragedy on one of the
craSsinoS--olae fr r1ooro bI1roay, haipUs
will be mangled and murdered, and
the city government of Ocala will be
directly to blame. It's no use to
blame the railroads. Everybody knows
they will impose on the people if they
have chance. The blame is with the
councilmen, whose duty it is, and who
have the power. to protect the people,
and who lack the nerve to do it.
