The Ocala Star, which was one of
the papers endeavoring TO discredit
the activities of Governor Cats by
printing statements from members of
the Ocala company at Camp Wheeler.
Tallahassee Democrat.
Sorry to have to say it, but the
Democrat prevaricates. We seldom
think of Governor Cats when we see
or hear from one of our boys in Com
pany A. About twenty of them have
been home on brief furIoughs, and we
have seen or heard of letters from
many others. Some of them told of
hardship, and all of hard work, but
not in the spirit of complaint All
have praised their camp and their
treatment. We have not Intercepted
them about the hospital for the simple
reason that only two of those we have
seen or heard from had been in it.
The Star is politically opposed to
/ Gov. Cats, but whenever he does a
good thing it is ready to praise him
and cooperate with him. Perhaps
the Democrat can't understand that
sort of a disposition. We haven't
noticed, by the way, that it gave any
great amount of its space to showing
up conditions at the Camp Wheeler
hospital.

garia, forget that only Congress can
declare war. We are virtually at war
with Austria and it is probable Con-
gress will make declaration to that eff
feet few days after it meets. Some
of our best informed men are of the
opinion that no good purpose is to be
served by declaration of war on
Bulgaria or Turkey, tho of course if
our men meet theirs in battle the lack
of formal declaration will make no
difference. Bulgarians have always
been very friendly to the United
States, and in case that nation should
want to get out of the war (Which is
possible) this country could help it to
do so

Demands have been presented to
practically every railroad in the
country for increases in wages for
trainmen and conductors, which are
approximately 40 per cent higher than
the present scale. The general chair
men of the two labor organizations
presented the wage schedule to the
general managers of the railroads
throughout the country. The rail-
roads are asked to make answer to
the demands by December 81 at the
latest. 1t seems to the Star like the
government had better take control
of the railroads, conscript the train
men and put them under military
law Every time they threaten to
strike they help the enemy as much
as tho the Teutons had won a battle
Meantime the railroads can't give
them higher wages without raising
rates that all the people must pay.

We wish the editors of some of our
esteemed contemporaries would be a
little more careful. Frinstance, the
Daytona Journal reprints our article
about hospital conditions at Camp
Wheeler under the flaming headline,
"Ocala Star Declares Boys Die of
Neglect at Camp Wheeler" 1t if had
added the word hospital and said
"Fears" instead of Declares" it
would have been nearer correct. The
Star has never had any reason to be-
lieve the men at the camp were neg
lected and hasn't said so. 1t has
drawn sharp distinction between the
camp and the hospital.

Sergeant George Woods and his
comrades from Company A, after a
brief furlough at home, left Sunday
afternoon to resume their duties at
Camp Wheeler. They went on the Sea
board limited, which carried some
twenty or thirty other young soldiers
from down south, who had also been
home on furlough. All these young
men were well clad in comfortable
wooden uniforms, all looked hearty
and well fed, and all who the Star
spoke to praised their camp.

Ocala has particular interest in the
Rainbow Division, which arrived in
France three weeks ago, and in which
are George and Robert MacKay and
John Chazal of Ocala, and probably
several other Marion county boys.
George MacKay is in the engineers
and has been promoted to the grade
of senior master engineer, and Robert
and John are color sergeants-rapid
promotion for young men who were
civilians less than six months ago.

Justice for him to do so. The gentle
man in question undoubtedly knows a
great deal more of Governor Cats
motives than the Star does. The gov
ernor made a great mistake in remov-
ing Bowling without hearing, and
there are very few of US who are not
aware that it takes more courage to
correct mistake than to make it.
The Star will always be glad to COM
mend the governor when it has the
evidence that he deserves commenda-
ton

Among those missed from the Mar
ion County Fair this year was gen.
ial Sim Bitch of Montbrook. 1t is
the first time in years he has failed
to attend, the the only reason he re-
manned away this year was that his
position as the governors secretary
made it imperative in the governors
absence, to remain in Tallahassee. In
a letter to the Star. he expressed his
regrets, and it is to be hoped that he
will be able to be with us next time.

Secretary of War Baker was in
Jacksonville Saturday afternoon and
evening. He inspected Camp John
son, which he declared to be a model
camp. We believe it is, but as Mr..
Baker was in Jacksonville and at the
camp only a few hours, good pro-
portion of which was taken up in a
trip on the river and a banquet at one
of the hotels, we are afraid his in
spection was rather cursory.

Coshocton, Jan. 31-Two young
men and two girls are thought to be
implicated In sensational affair at
Conesville Saturday night, It being al
legged that the four young people held
a beer party in the Conesville M. e.
church. The matter was placed in
the hands OF Prosecuting Attorney
Don G. Porter Monday morning by
Rev Hopkins, pastor OF the church,
and II is probable that the four young
people will be brought into juvenile
court soon.
1t is reported that when the jani-
tor went to the church Sunday morn
lng he found a number of beer bot
ties, some OF them being empty. In
vestgatlon followed and the names
of the four who are alleged to have
composed the beer party were soon
learned by the authorities of the
church, who do not believe that such
conduct should be tolerated.

Deputy Lytle, Arrests Kir-

MAN DISCLAIMS DEBT
States That He Is Not Guilty OF De-
frauding Sarah Gibson, a Fred
erlcktown Keeper OF
An Inn

To place under arrest Arthur Kir-
by on charge of defrauding an inn
keeper, Deputy Sheriff Burr II. Lytle
was forced TO walk a mile and a half
Tuesday afternoon through some of
the slimiest mud of which Richland
county boasts.
The deputy found Kirby saving
wood at his present residence near
Ontario. Kirby disputed the claim Of
$40, was unwilling to settle and, ac-
cordingly, accompanied Deputy Lytle
back to this city where he Is now
lodged In the county Jail.
The affidavit in the case was made
by Sarah Gibson of Fredericktown
Readers OF The Banner will recall
that this woman, who lives In Fred
ericktown, caused the arrest of half
dozen men last summer on similar
charges. She operated a boarding.
house and alleged that money due her
was not forthcoming.
Kirby is OF the opinion that 1t Is a
pure case of hold-up. He states that
the $40 she says is due her from him
must represent few cigars, a glass
OF milk or so which he was in the
habit of getting and for which, he is
willing to admit, he possibly may not
have settled
The size of the bill is the main point
OF his objection and he is determined
to see the affair through rather than
pay over $40 in solid cash for articles
which he believes he never obtained.
