The Ocala banner. (Ocala, Marion County, Fla.) 1883-194?, 1917-02-09
EVERY FARM a BONANZA

The price of cabbages ~has grown
from six to eighty dollars per ton.
1t is said on good authority that
Irish potatoes are worth their price
in gold.
The price of peanuts has increased
from 50 cents TO $3.50 per bushel
The manager of the Anthony Farms
says that four years ago he bought
two fairly good COWS for which he
paid seven dollars and fifty cents
apiece: this year the average price
he has been compelled to pay for av-
erage-szed hogs has been fifteen dol
lars apiece, and those OF more than
average size have called for checks Of
twenty dollars and over
Lettuce. beans and all otner truck
promise most remunerative returns
It's estimated from the amount of
cotton seed that has been sold that
twenty thousand acres will be planted
to cotton in Marion county this year,
and it is sanguinely believed that the
yield will bring fabulous returns.
Chickens. guineas. ducks, turkeys
and fowls of every kind are com
handing top-nOtch prices The same
may be said of milk and butter and
all dairy products; and eggs can al
ways b. relied on for bringing ample
pin-mOney for immediate domestic
purposes.
Corn. hay, velvet beans and all sta.
pie crops promise remunerative pric-
es.
In this county the raising OF cattle
promises to become the most fasci-
mating industry and it has been pro
verb here even in times past that the
cattle man is the man with a bank ac-
count
This was not only so in this county.
but the cattle men have become the
owners of banks.
Ii the raising of finer stock and
fairly remunerative prices continue.
Marion county is destined to become
in the farming line a yeritable Ell Do.

WET AND DRY ELECTION VOID

Mr. f. II. Martin, who was appoint
I'd special master III the wet and dry
contest. filed his report. together with
his findings of law and fact N the of
fee of the clerk. of the circuit court
on February eth, after having over
ruled the defendants on re-hearing.
The special masters report and
finding is very lengthy. giving a thor
Iough review of the contentious of the
respective parties The principal fea-
ture involved would seem to be the
question as to the form of ballot used
in the wet and dry election held in
December. 1915. wherein the PROPOSE
ton submitted was alternated on the
official ticket, the proposition for
selling being first submitted on one
ticket and second on the next ticket.
1t was charged in the bill of complaint
that such alienation tended to con-
fuse and mislead the voters. The
Master found as a matter of fact that
such form of ballot was in fact used
and as a matter of law that the same
was void and Illegal. for the reason
that the statutes prescribing the form
OF ballot was mandatory and not mere
~ directory; that the form used was
not as prescribed by law, therefore,
any election held wherein such bal
lots were used was null and void. and
for that reason it was not incumbent
on the complainant to show that the
result would have been otherwise had
not such ballots been used.
A great many other findings were
set out in the report. both as TO mat
tiers OF fact and law, but the above
seem to be the matter on which the
case turned. and under the findings
of the master both as to law and fact
the election is a nullity
No doubt the matter will now go be-
fore Judge Bullock on exceptions to
the masters report. and should the
same be affirmed or reversed, will
probably be appealed to the supreme
court by the losing side.
There is some question whether
the saloons could be re-opened in
Ocala should Judge Bullock affirm the
masters findings, as the question with
reference to an order of supersedeas
would have to be fought out before
the courts.
AS the matter now stands it seems
il will yet be some time before the
matter will be finally settled The de-
PENDANTS have thirty days in which to
file exceptions to the masters find
ings.

GEORGIA AND GOVERNOR CATS
the hope Of this paper.

Rev. Sidney j. Cats, governor of
Florida, in somewhat irascible com
municataion published elsewhere upon
this page, observes that of you GeOr-
gia people will attend to your own
business and let us alone, we can GER
tainly attend to ours without any
help or criticism from you or any of
your kind"
The good governor of Florida a
Cody man by profession evidently
smarts under playful reference the
Constitution made recently to a let
ter he wrote TO the management OF the
Southeastern Land Show, declining
to prepare brief article extolling his
state. for use in the Land Shows de-
velopment book, basing his regrets
upon the ground. 4 am too busy;
do not have time to say my prayers
at night nor read my Bible. and a
newspaper never look at
Our comment piqued the governor,
and he demands that we give him
space for a reply which we cheerful
ly do.
But when the esteemed Governor
Cats tells us to attend to our own
business and let Florida alone. we
submit that We shall do nothing of
the kind We like Florida too well
for that
What would Florida be today if it
had not been for attention given it by
outsiders? 1t is a great state. a beau.
tiful state and its wonderful wealth
and advantages are appealing not only
to Georgia. but to all of the world !.
and for forty years the Constitution
has been singing the praises of our
sister state throughout the length
and breadth of this land. and her
aiding its empyrean charms TO all
christendom Outside OF Florida no
paper has said more in eulogy of Flor.
ida Florida is close to us in every
way, for more of its citizens are ma
tiVes OF Georgia than of any other
state-excepting Florida itself
Suppose the pernicious doctrine of
you let us alone had always applied,
and Georgia and Alabama had turned
the cold shoulder to their sister state.
thousands who are now among the
states best citizens would not be
there. More than that, Governor Cats
himself would still be in Alabama.
Pictures Florida left to its own re
sources. with its neighbors dumb with
reference to her, With no outside
help. What would the state be today
but for its wonderful railroad devotion.

sEvgRINe or DIPLOMATIC RgLA
TIoNS

The United States government has
severed diplomatic relations with
Germany This does not mean neces-
sarily declaration of war 1t is tant-
amount, however, to saying that the
imperial government of the kaiser has
put itself beyond the pale of recogni-
ton of a God-fearing. peace-loving
law-abiding nation, and henceforth
this government can have no more
friendly dealings with it.
In other words. to use homely
phrase. this government has knocked
the chip off the shoulder of his i'm
perial majesty, the kaiser, and it is
up to him to swallow or resent the
insult.
If. however. the kaise. does not
do so in words. he may do so in overt
acts. and as soon as he does a de
claration of war will follow from our
government. and the two nations will
be at war to all intents and purposes.
However, Germany cannot get to us
except by an occasional submarine,
and we cannot very we'll get within
good reach of Germany
1t is believed that all the neutral
nations will follow the lead of the
United States, and withdraw all
friendly relations with the German
government
If this should be the result, Ger
many will say that it is impossible for
her to fight against the whole world,
and she will perhaps throw herself on
the bounty and magnanimity of these
neutral nations to make the best
terms for her possible, and peace
will follow within a very few weeks.
That at least is the prediction and
the hope OF this paper
