f. G.. Whitthorne, representative of
the Times Union in this district, has
been doing so much business for his
paper that it has presented him with
a handsome and serviceable Ford, to
travel over his territory in. It's no.
ticeable that everybody employed by
the Times-U Union says it's a mighty
good institution to work for, and
while we find fault with it sometimes
we would be unjust if we didn't admit
that it is a necessity of life in thou
sands of Florida homes.

It's time every farmer, merchant
and manufacturer in Marion county
was thinking about the Marion Coun-
ty Fair. War or no war, we must
have this fair, and the greater sue

The secretary, Mrs. Anna Tweedy, is
an energetic and skillful worker, and
says there is good promise of the
best fair yet Let's all turn in and
help-it will be to our best interest.

Seems to the Star that the war de-
partment might settle the dispute
about Captain Cats by giving him a
commission in the national army. 1t
isn't right and it isn't according to
law to force him on the Tallahassee

likely that he is brave young man

small employers.

vide in its place a state insurance fund

LENGTHY DEBATE.
The motion that the senate refuse
to concur in the house amendments
was made by Senator Evans of Power
county 1t was debated at length.
Stevenson moved a call of the senate.
Curtis attacked the sponsors for the
senate bill and the measure itself, de-
caring it was not what the people
wanted. Hill said he was convinced
it was impossible to get a bill satisfac-
tory to all conflicting elements, but in
the cause of harmony he urged every
effort be made to get together. Evans
held il to be the duty of the senators
to pass legislation according to their
best judgment Jackson declared the
loh element in hiS county favored
the Anderson bill
Lowe of Cassia said the senate bill
was never given serious consideration
by the house and supported the Evans
motion Rockwell asserted labor had
been represented in shaping the So
called Rockwell bill. Thomas support
ed the motion because he believed
conference committee would settle the
existing differences. Stevenson said
the Anderson bill was the Conner
measure changed to meet the wishes
of labor. Cummings declared his OPP
position to the Evans motion. Whit
comb moved the previous question. 1t
was put, cutting off debate, and the
Evans motion carried.
