OCALA, FLORIDA. TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 27. 1917.
CONGRESSMAN CLARK
IN OCALA
Says he Has No Intention of Trying
to be Either Governor or
Senator

Congressman Clark arrived in the
city yesterday, and was kept busy un-
til bedtime talking to his friends.
The congressman is one of the most
accessible men in the world, and takes
pleasure in meetings folks. While he
had much business affairs to talk of,
he seems to regard getting out in the
communities of his district as a vaca-
tion from the grind of Washington.
Mr.. Clark had a bunch of friends
around him at the Harrington last
night, and gave them many sidelights
on public work in Washington.
One thing he made plain is that
many men sent to Washington at con-
siderable expense by communities af-
feet little or nothing. They hang
around hotel lobbies and the corridors
of the capitol, and are generally in the
way of a hardworking senator or rep
resentative, and then go back and
either claim credit for success or
blame the failure on the congress-
man.
Mr.. Clark made it plain that we
need not expect any improvements for
the Oklawaha, Withlacoochee nor any
other small stream until the war is
over. He says, for one thing, the
president won't allow it.
In regard to talk about his possible
candidacy for the governorship or a
senatorship, Mr.. Clark retold that old
rable of Aesop, how the dog with a
piece of meat in his mouth, crossing a
stream, saw himself reflected in the
water, supposed it was another dog
and another piece of meat, snapped at
the imaginary piece of meat, thereby
losing his own. Mr.. Clark says as
long as the people of the second dis
trict want him to represent them, he
isn't likely to try for any other Office.
Mr.. Clark returned to Gainesville
today. From there he will make
brief trip down the East Coast, and
then will go to Washington, where
next Monday Congress will enter on
another session which may last until
its successors come in March a, 1919.

FLETCHER
IN THE CITY
the People at the Opening
of the Marion County Fair
This Morning

Mr. D. u. Fletcher, Florida's senior
senator, arrived in Ocala yesterday
evening, and met a warm welcome
from our people.
He put up at the Ocala House, and
altho he arrived late he had time to
meet considerable number of his
friends before bedtime
He was welcome guest at the K.
of P. banquet, where he was taken by
Messrs. Gary and earn. Mr.. Fletcher
is not knight, but the banquet de-
gree was conferred on him in open
lodge, and he proved himself worthy
of the honor.
This morning, he gave a pointed
and eloquent address, which was
heard at the fair grounds by hun.
dreds.
He left on the limited for Miami,
where he will attend the waterways
convention, he being one of the most
vigilant workers in America for water
communications.
Senator Fletcher is very popular in
Ocala, and if he decides to try for
third term he can be reasonably sure
of good support in Marion county.

with these men along the road gave
an idea of what they had been doing.
The start was made every day at 8
a. M, with an early breakfast and
with rations subsequently served at
IL a. m. and 8 o'clock in the after
noon. Along the route their head
quarters were in village schools,
houses, barns and public buildings.
The men carried loads of about 10
pounds, including rifles, blankets, kits
and the days rations. This looked
like a heavy load but they men did
not mind it, although they said the
long marches had been hard on the
feet. The regimental bands were in
line and Italy may hear music again
if things go right. All the Italian
bands have disappeared in the fierce
carnage of recent days and the bands
men are charging with bayonets.
The whole appearance of the Brit
ish and French gave feeling of great
power because of the perfect organi-
zation and ardor of all ranks, accen-
tuated by the timeliness with which
they are arriving in the vicinity of the
battle front.

OKLAWAHA VALLEY
WON'T OPERATE
After November 80 Unless Money Can
be Found at Least to Pay
It's Expenses

In Gainesville yesterday, Judge
Wills of the circuit court granted an
injunction against the road ceasing to
run trains.
Mr.. William Hooker, attorney for
the road, told the judge that the road
would have to cease operating, in
junction or no injunction, Nov. 30,
because there was no money to pay
the men. This is an argument thai
even an injunction can't overcome.
The only way to keep the road in
operation is to put it in the hands of
a receiver. This can be done by it's
creditors, but the road is already in
the hands of it's creditors. 1t does not
owe any local debts.

Italian Fronts
Associated Pressl

Washington, Nov. 27.-"The week
ended Saturday has been one very
favorable to the allies arms" says the
war departments official communique,
issued today. The statement declares
the success of the British offensive in

FIGHTING ON THE ITALIAN
FRONT

- Throughout yesterday and the day
before the battle in the mountains has
developed into a steady succession of
heavy attacks and counter attacks
with occasional brief intervals for re-
forming the line and reorganizing the
troops. Twelve different enemy at
tacks were made in as many hours but
the Italians did not yield a foot, and
Gen. de Giorgo was confident that this
line would hold until reinforcements
arrived. Staff officers from the head
quarters were touring the front and
soon there was seen struggle just
ahead. Along the route long lines of
Italian infantry were reforming tC
return to the fight. They showed the
AeTects of the strain, but there were
no signs of wavering.
In another zone another fight
which stirred the blood was when sol
id ranks of allied reinforcements
crowded the roads. Already they were
well within sound of the rumble of
the guns and the boom from the bat
tie off in the distance could be heard
over the gallop of the cavalry, the
tramp of the infantry and the roar
of the artillery.
The day was dark but it seemed to
light up with the Italian gray being
interspersed with the British khaki
and the French red and blue. This
was the first British and French sol
diers seen in force.
The correspondent talked with some
of the men who said they had just ar
rived by forced marches and that
others were following. Others came
in view just then and the party pass
ed through endless lines of French.
There were squadrons of cavalry Ia
the road and nearby fields and long
lines of new artillery trains and sup
plies. Field kitchens had been set up
at one point and midday meal was
being served. The men looked in the
best of condition and did not show a
trace of fatigue. Just beyond here
the color turned from blue to KHAKI
as long lines of the British came into
sight. In the lead were cyclists and
then came engineer trains. Follow
ing were long ranks of infantry, cav
AIRY and artillery. At one point head
quarters had been temporarily estab
1ished along the road and guards were
at the gate as the officers went and
came.
Farther on a British general and
his staff, all finely mounted, were
cantering forward.
The artillery horses were especial
-ly marked for their sleek appearance
and well fed condition, and observers
noted how all the brass work on the
guns and harness glinted with the
thorough care they had had. One en-
.gineer corps was rumbling to the
rear with huge pontoons on Camions,
as it had been found these were not
needed but all the rest of the force
was moving forward.
The men looked hard as nails and
were anxious to know how the fight
was getting on and to get to it. Talks

X. of P. DISTRICT MEETING

The Knights of Pythias who at
tended the session of the district
meeting at Castle Hall in this city
last evening were in no way disap-
pointed, however much their anticip
pations may have led them to believe
they were to witness.
After the regular meeting of Ocala
lodge the district session was called
to order by District Deputy Charles
B. Howell, and a general "good of the
order" program was staged. Six can
didates were given their first step in
Pythianism, and allowed seats in the
open session of the district meeting.
The Orlando lodge had the largest
delegation present, that city sending
about twenty members, among them
many of the uniformed rank.
Grand Chancellor Yowell of Or
lando, District Deputy 1. N. Kennedy
of Eustis, and U. S. Senator Duncan.
U. Fletcher of Jacksonville, were
among the prominent visiting Pyth-
ians present, and each made rousing
speeches to the gathered clans.
A violin solo by one of the visitors
from Orlando was greatly enjoyed.
The Ocala lodge had prepared a
bird supper for the occasion, and
when it is stated that about a hun
dred Pythians preesnt made way with
other 300 quail further comment as to
how well the repast was enjoyed is
superfuous.
These district meetings are becom-
ing very popular in the organization
over the state, and this one of the
eighth and ninth district was in every
way up to the expectations of those
who engineered It.
