Because we remarked the other day
that we couldn't give an account of a
fight that would suit all parties con-
cerned, the ST. Petersburg Independ-
ent rips US up the back and says we
"dodge a news item" because of the
argument that might follow. Maybe
so, friend Brown, but maybe you
haven't viewed the matter from all
sides. We used to think it was our
sworn duty to print every little I'M
pleasant happening and be afraid if
we didn't somebody would think we
were afraid. But we have had to go
after some bigger game and if SC
doing hasn't established our reputa-
ton for disregard of unpleasant con-
sequences, said reputation will have
to relapse into innocuous deseutude.
When a couple of our neighbors-and
almost everybody in this town is our
neighbor-indulge in a fsticuff, the
other neighbors hear about it from
the eyewitnesses, and if we put it. in
print generally the greatest conse-
quences is to hurt the feelings of the
women folks. It's worth going some
distance out of your way to avoid
hurting some woman's feelings. So
we have got into the way of sliding
over such little bumps. Well notice
! the big ones, all right; if Editor
Brown will come to Ocala and start
in to whip the marshal or the sheriff
he shall have a quarter of column
Beside, we have so many big things
to put in the paper that we don't fee
like taking time to write about the
little ones.

The Banner this morning prints a
his name about the fund which a
large number of American papers, in
Guiding the Star, are raising to send
tobacco to the soldiers in France. The
Banner says it submits the article
without comment. It's a pity the
Banner didn't take the trouble to in
vestigate the matter. 1t simply
amounts to this. that the Star, or any
one of several thousand other Amer
lean papers, with the assistance of a
big tobacco company, and the ap-
prevail and also the assistance of the
government, will for % cents send to
some American soldier in France a
arettes that would cost him As cents
in America, and which he can't OBJ
tain for any money in Europe. When
the new tobacco, tax is added, this
tobacco at retail would cost 81 cents.
If there was any shenanigan about
this business, the government would
not carry the tobacco free to the
soldiers. The corporation that fur
nishes this tobacco certainly doesn't
make more than enough to pay for
the goods, and the Star doesn't make
anything at all. Like a thousand
other things, it is being done for the
benefit of the soldiers. If the name of
the party who sent the article to the
Banner was known, we'll bet he would
be recognized at once as some per-
son who never did anything for the
soldiers without being well paid for it.

CUBS OPEN HOME STAY FRIDAY
-SOX TRAVEL EASTWARD

BY Mark Shields
If the floods cease the Cubs will
appear on the North Side against the
Brooklyn Dodgers tomorrow and at
tempt to prove the record of II wins
and seven defeats made on the
eastern trip which closed yesterday
was not fUke. Brooklyn is the first
eastern club to appear, and will be
followed by Philadelphia, New York
and Boston, in the order named. The
Braves are carded for five games and
the other trio for four each.
This is the first long home stand of
the Cubs this season and should be
beneficial to the club. Mitchell will
have an opportunity to put his hire
Engs through morning practice and
smooth over some rough spots that
appear in his alignment
The Iong-deferred warm weather
should also put in an appearance, and
this is what the veterans of the
North Side need badly. From any
angle their recent record is sUrpris-
ing, and it borders on the miraculous
when the fact is considered that
Mitchell has, in the main, a crew of
aged parties who do not thrive
in the early spring.
As far as aIlotting hits is con-
ceTned, the Cub hurleTs have been
exceedingly stingy on the trip, but
some of them are still shy on con-
troll and need practice pitching in
batting practice. They are sure to
receive it every morning the sun
shines.
A game was lost yesterday because
Demaree passed the Pirate pitcher,
loading the bases with two out.
After that Carey hit a single and
scored two runs, enough to win in
the afternoon. If Demaree had
pitched correctly to his box oppo-
nent the Cubs might have COPIED a
pair of games.
