Let everybody cheer up-as hrazy-
cat saws. the worst has came. This
time next week the campaign will be
over. About all there is to it with
the average voter is desire to have
his views enforced on the other Eel
low. The good will of your neighbor
across the street or across the road Is
worth more to you than the good WIN
of Wilson or Hughes, OF Knott or
Cats. The two former will never
hear of you, and no matter which IS
elected he isn't going to do anything
for you. The two latter couldn't DO
much for you if they would, and II
YOU call to hang on their words, or
hang on their necks, after election,
they will greatly prefer your room TO
your company, whether they say so or
not. Politics is game and should be
played according to the rules and
without bitterness. If another man
is bitter and unfair, that is no reason
why you should be. Our Office holders
are nothing after all but our hired
men, and we are fools if we become
angry over which of them shall work
for us. Let's can the politics, remem-
Der we are all citizens of Marion coun-
ty and Florida, and all should be
friends. Let's get together and dis
cuss the best way to make our fair
success, to have good crops and stock
roads and streets, better business ant
better freight rates, and the Other
things that go to making life easier
and more worth living. Politics is
necessary evil, but we should not al
low it to poison our lives.

The Tribune now has ready for
publication about six columns of
Cats clippings against less than one
column of Knott clippings. Either the
Cats sentiment predominates in the
state press or the Knott papers are
floating on the job" of saying things
in his behalf-Tampa Tribune.
Any well-posted newspaper man in
the state will form his own opinion of
the Tribune's sincerity on reading the
foregoing statement.

Each of some 5000 newspapers of
the United States is publishing from
week to week, names of people in its
particular neighborhood, who have
used and recommended Doan's Kid
ney Pills for kidney, backache, weak
kidneys, bladder troubles and urinary
disorders. This mass of proof includes
over 10000 recommendations. Ocala is
no exception. Here is one Of the
Ocala cases.

The Ocala Star calls the members
CT the governors cabinet who won't
come out in support of Knott "polit-
zeal towards" but why towards" if
as the Star so ardently believes, Mr..
Knott is to be elected. 1t would seem
that they were especially brave in
not antagonizing the next governor

logic perhaps.--Miami Metropolis.

ments made by Cats in his speech

have an effect on reasonable people,
but we find that Cats prejudice is
contagious and has infected good

wish to listen to anything that dis
