not swim much. he just opened his
mouth and caught big duck right
by the tail.
How they did quack and swim,
and the big duck swan faster than
any of them, which carried little
Reddy Fox along at fast rate, and
the other ducks, thinking he was
swimming by himself, thought he
had fooled them and had old Mad.

! Before Mr.. Dog could catch up
to them, the ducks and little Reddy
Fox were safe on the bank of the
pond, and little Reddy Fox gave old
| Madam Duck poke, sending her
over on her head in the grass, and
off he ran, so fast that the farmer
coming over the hill with a gun did
not see him.
Where have you been?" asked
his mother "You are all wet. Have
you been in the Water?"
Little Reddy had to tell her he
had and all about 1t, but she didn't
punish him because he told her
where the ducks were, and besides
that, she felt sure he could help her
catch one or two of them.
So she gave little Reddy cup
of hot ginger tea and put him in
bed until he was dry and warm,
and the next day they went back to
the duck pond, and they had duck
for dinner
OF course, his mother let him
think he, really did catch the duck
they were eating, but little Reddy
Fox only stood stood on the, bank
and ran back and forth, while his
mother swan along in the pond
with branch of a tree in her
mouth, which the ducks thought
had fellen into the pond, and they
were watching little Reddy Fox on
the bank
Then Mother Fox dropped the
branch she was carrying when she
came close to the ducks and grab
bed the latest on she could see and
swan to the bank, where little Red
dy was waiting SO that was the way
Reddy Fox got his dinner.

Little Reddy Fox ran over the
hill one day to see what was going
on, for he had seen his father and
mother go that way very early In
the morning, and they had not re
turned, and Reddy was sure they
were having a good time and had
forgotten to come home
But his father and mother had
gone around another way, so little
Reddy missed them, but he didn't
mis- anything else, as you will
agree when you read this story.
First he saw duck and he ran
at her, but Madam Duck plunged
into the pond near by and little
Reddy went in, too.
Now, Reddy did not know much
about swimming, and down he went
into the water, getting his mouth
full, and il there had not been a
rock sticking up out of the pond
little .Reddy Fox would have been
drowned.
He chung to the rock and scrom-
bled ON to it, where he choked and
coughed for white, with the ducks
all quacking and laughing at him.
"How are yau going to get off
that rock?" asked one of the ducks,
swimming all around Reddy. you

''I'll stay here until grow up,

too,' replied little Reddy, for he
was very quick with an answer.
COR Mr.. Dog will come along
and chase you off," said another.
Gle often comes down to the pond
for a drink"
Now, little Reddy had never seen
Mr.. Dog, so he didn't know any
thing about him, but in a minute

ing ON the other side of the pond,
there stood Mr.. Dog barking at
him.
He knew it was Mr.. Dog, be-
cause Madam Duck told him it was.
"Chase him, Mr.. Dog" said Mad
am Duck, "eH thinks he can not
swim"
Into the water went Mr.. Dog and
straight for the rock where little
Reddy Fox was standing.
Just as Mr.. Dog got to the rock
and was scrambling up on one side
little Reddy Fox plunged into the
water right into the midst of all

FROM MR.. BELL

Editor Star: This morning / was
asked. Why are Galloway and you
picking on me, or words to that effect.
l desire to state for the information
of the public that / am not connected
with Mr.. Galloway's campaign other
than as democratic voter loyal to
the lawful nominees of the recent
democratic primary.
On November 7th | expect to vote
for Mr. Galloway for sheriff for the
reason that on June 9Th last, in the
democratic primary, he received the
greatest number of votes cast for any
candidate for sheriff
l was present during the entire re-
count in the Galloway Adams contest,
saw the ballots and saw them recount
ed, and I have it from Mr.. Adams
own lips that he had square deal in
that recount.
Mr.. Galloway has no connection
with the present newspaper contro-
versy, nor have / any connection with
his affairs other than above stated.
Yours truly, Joseph Bell.

MR.. NUGENT's REPLY
To Mr.. BELL
ocala, Fla, Nov. 9Th, 1916.

Ocala, Fla, Nov. 9Th, 1916.
Editor Star: In reply to "Jim Jack
sons" article in Saturdays Star, |
will say:
There is nothing whatever about
Bell or Jackson, either as to his citi-
zenship, or in any way, that entities
him to sit in judgment on anybody.
Openly over his own signature he says
he does not know what his politics
will be after tomorrow's election.
If the executive committee of the
democratic party had called on me for
anything I would have responded, but
Mr.. Bells attitude is simply cheek.
When he says 'fthat / have said that
would rather deal with colored peo-
pie rather than the white people of
this county," he not only utters an
untruth, but speaks most utter child
ish nonsense. Nearly a thousand
white men friends of mine voted for
me in June; they will vote for me to-
morrow. I do not believe that there
was a crook in the whole number.
Nearly a thousand men, almost as
many as voted for me, voted for Mr..
Carney and for Mr.. Sistrunk. Among
the number were many of my per-
sonal friends who are none the less
| my friends today because they voted
for either Carney or Sistrunk. want
to say emphatically that these men,
with the exception of handful of
"Jim Jacksons," have my confidence.
They are going to vote for me to-
morrow as the nominee of their party,
regardless of "Jim Jackson" and q
few men who were simply using Jim
jackson as a catspaw. More than
that, the colored people of this county
have known me for years. Not one
Iof them believes that he will ever be
robbed of cent in the clerks office
while I am there, and believe thai
even majority of the colored people
will be sorry to see Mr.. Neville elect.
led. Respectfully,
i P. II. Nugent.

With this issue, the controversy
between Messrs. Bell, Smith and Nu-
gent ends. We see no reason why it
should have begun. We honor Joe
Bell his for energetic work in behalf
Of the party and wish all young dem
ocrats were as energetic as he is. But
we see no reason for his criticisms of
Judge Smith and Clerk Nugent. Of
the former, as we have already said,
the nature of his duties as probate
judge would make it improper for him
to engage in campaign work. And as
for Mr.. Nugent, we do not see any
more reason for his going out and
electioneering for the ticket than
there is for any other of the candi-
dates nominated in the primary. Why
does Mr.. Bell attack Mr.. Nugent and
say nothing about Messrs. Crosby,
Light, Brinson, Aver, STRIPPING, Barco
and Marsh, the five commissioners
and the three members of the school
board. It's just as much the duty of
any one of these to work for the
ticket as it is the duty of Mr.. Nugent,
and all of them could do it more ap-
lpropriately, for Mr.. Nugent, as clerk
lof the court, holds a partly judicial
position. Another thing is, that at
least two of the county primary NOM
inees have declared openly and above
board that they considered Cats the
nominee and intend to vote for him
Why doesn't Mr.. Bell get after them
Mr.. Nugent has only one opponent
and that opponent is a republican
We are sure that Mr.. Bell is too COCO
a democrat to try to help a republi-
can defeat another democrat, yet this
lis the impression given by his letter
in Saturdays Star. We have never
asked Mr.. Nugent, nor any other dem
Iocrat, who he is going to vote for. Hi.
participation in the primary is ;
Ipledge he is going to vote the straigh
ticket, and so far as we-are concerne,
we are entirely certain that in Mr.
INugent's case that pledge will b
kept. It has been pretty well estab
llished, in the last two weeks, tina
there is conspiracy on the part o
some disgruntled democrats to joi
forces with the republicans in an at
tempt TO defeat Mr.. Nugent. We d
not believe Mr. Bell would counte
. nance such a conspiracy, but if hi
criticisms of Mr.. Nugent have any e1
fleet they will be to aid the conspi1
acy. It's up to him and all othe
J ipsrty workers during the remainin
! hours to put in their best work fe
Mr.. Nugent as well as the other non
t linees.

ATTACK ON AN EDITOR

A dispatch from Lakeland to the
Tampa Times says:
Growing out of charges made in the
Lakeland Morning Star in regard to
the official acts of Chairman J. C.
Swindell of the board of county COM
missioners, Mr.. Hertz, who is a
friend Of Swindell's, made an attack
or Editor L. W. Bloom of the Star in
the Office of the Star this morning.
Hertz entered the office where
Bloom was at work.
"I've come to shoot you," he said.
4'You haven't got the nerve to do
l." said Bloom.
ooh, yes | have,' said Hertz, and
pulled pistol out of his pocket.
eff you've got pistol on you. you
had better defend yourself" said
Hertz.
You coward, you know right well
/ have no pistol" said Bloom.
Hertz didn't shoot and later left
the Office at the persuasion of friends
He was taken into custody by the
sheriff and gave bond of $500 that
he would keep the peace. Bloom said
this afternoon he would make a
charge of assault with intent to Kill
against Hertz.
The latter is said to be very friend
ly to Mr.. Swindell and to have told
Bloom he would get even with him
for his attacks on Swindell's official
acts. Blooms attacks on SwindeH re-
suited in a request made by the grand
jury, which sat recently, to Governor
Trammell that he remove SwindelI
This the governor has not vet done.

To Hon. Joseph Bell, alias, Jim jack
son, Defeated Candidate for Coun-
ty Judge in Democratic Primary
June 6, 1916.
Dear Sir: read with interest your
letter to me in the Ocala Evening
Star, Nov. a, 1916.
Why of all the candidates on the
ticket do you single Nugent and my
self out for attack? Is it to satisfy
some personal grudge? Are not you
under just as much obligation, or
more so, to vote for me on November
7. as you are for Knott or Galloway;
there is absolutely no question about
my nomination. There is about the
other two. Are you as interested in
my election as you are in Galloway
and Knott? You should be.
You ask me if have given to w.
". Knott my active support since he
has received the nomination. My an
swer is that in a quiet and orderly
way, among my friends whom /
thought | could influence, I have. Be-
cause | believe he is the rightful
nominee of the party. You ask me If
| have given Mr.. Galloway my active
support since he has received his
nomination. I answer that have
never been a Galloway man in the
primary / have never voted for him,
but on the contrary have been oppos-
ed to him, for reasons sufficient to
myself. Mr.. Galloway is the NOMINEES
| CT the party and on November 7th
intend to vote for him, but because
have to eat dish of crow is no reason
why I should crow over the crow.
/ | ask you that if Cats or Adams
had been finally nominated by the
courts, would you as a good demo.
crat be as active in their behalf?
answer this for you and say you
would not.
|. / understand from one of youl
friends (Mr. Louis Lang by name)
that what you meant by saying thai
you didn't know what you would b.
latter Nov. z, was that in case your
friends Knott and Galloway were no
elected, that you would turn republi
can. Now is this your idea of loya
democrat
i As to your example in politics, O.
otherwise, / want to respectfully sa.
that I do not care to adopt you as ;
model. also fail to see that you ar
called upon to call any democrat t
account, especially in view of you
plain unmistakable statement owe
your own signature, as to your dem
ocracy after November 7th.
I was endorsed by the white dem
ocrats of our county as nominee flo
county judge. You were not. If tn
executive committee of the Democrat
party had selected me to max
speeches, or write letters, for an
) candidate, assure you that woul
have done so, but would have signe

Everybody in Ocala learns with re-
greet of the death of Neil M. Alfred,
who passed away at San Diego, Calf,
last Thursday morning. Neil was an
ocala boy, and one who was in great
favor with all who knew him. He was
born and raised in this city, won his
way to the front in the practice of
law, and was greatly missed when
failing health took him to the higher
attitudes of the west. He leaves a
wife and little daughter, with whom
our people sincerely sympathize in
their great bereavement.
