glad if he hadn't. We can assure the

school had ever been half starved,
half clad, compelled to sleep on filthy
mattresses swarming with vermin, or

the enormities the boys suffered, and
are probably yet suffering, at Marian

Never in the history of automobile
travel has half the number of tour
lists passed through Ocala in cars as
are passing through now, but "pass-
ing through" is right, for they are all
going further down the, state. Many
OF these cars are equipped with camp
ing outfits and in many cases two
and three cars are travelling together.
Tens of thousands of tourists will
come to Ocala this winter in their own
automobiles and most of them will
spend the entire winter in the state
Ocala should certainly make some eff.
fort to stop some of the travellers

There is at least one honest, incor-

Luning, state treasurer. He would
make an excellent governor.-Punta

about that rotten reform school and
insisted that it be reformed, they

We are afraid the Star doesn't
know all this, nor any of it. We have

The American troops now march

reaped, with special advantage
ito defendant in the competition be-
cause OF the fact that II is not bur-
dened with any part of the expense of
gathering the news. The transaction
speaks for itself, and court of equity
ought not to hesitate long in charac-
terizing it as unfair competition in
business.
The contention that the news is
abandoned to The public when
published in the first newspaper is I'M
tenable. Abandonment is a question
of intent, and the entire organization
of the Associated Press negatives
such a purpose y
Besides the misrepresentation
there are elements of imitation, of
false pretence, in defendants prae-
tees. The device of rewriting COM
plainant's news articles carries
its own comment. Indeed, the entire
system of appropriating complain
ants news and transmitting l. as a
commercial product amounts TO
"A false representation that the
news transmitted is the result of de-
fendant's own investigations

listed between the bodily appropriation

that the Tip" practice was "insura-

The practice, having been

Referring to criticism of the form
of injunstion granted by the district

Washington Dec. 23.--Injunctions
granted the Associated Press to stop
pirating of news by the Information
al News Service were sustained to-
day by the supreme court of the
United States.
The opinion was rendered on a vote
of five to three. Justice Clark of
Ohio, newspaper publisher himself
taking no part. Justice Brandeis dis
sented entirely in verbal opinion.
Justice Holmes and Justice Mekenna
in their associate opinion merely de-
clined to uphold all the views of the
majority.
The opinion was rendered in pro
ceedings instituted to restrain the
International News Service from SELL
ing news gathered at great labor and
expense by the Associated Press for
publication by its members. The de-
PENDANT was charged with acting UNI
fairly in competition with the Asso-
ciated Press. and its practices were
termed "piratical and unlawful"
All the contentious made by the
Associated Press were sustained by
the federal courts of New York
which granted injunctions enjoining
the International News Service from
dppFOpTldtinS Associated Press news.
In arguing the case before the SUI
preme court, attorneys for the Inter
national News Service admitted that
organization was guilty of taking the
Associated Press news. but eontended
that the Associated Press was guilty
of similar practices They denied
there was any element of unfair COM
petition involved asserting there was
no effort on the part of the Interna-
tional News Service to mislead the
public, but that it simply used news
which it had bought by purchasing a
newspaper.
Employees Bribed.
The Associated Press charged that
the International News Service had
bribed employees of the Associated
Press members in Cleveland to fur
nish it with tips" on news. which
were sent at once to the Information
ais New York office where they were
rewritten and then sent out by that
service as its own news to its own
customers. Taking of Associated
Press news from the office of the
New York American, a member of
that organization, BY International
News Service employees was also
charged.

president Wilson can upset the
government of France whenever he
chooses, provided he adheres to the
principles which have made him VEN
Grated and beloved" The English
man assented to this, adding that
the influence of the president across
the channel was almost as great as
in France,
The president and members of the
mission are devoting themselves to
the task of establishing an under
standing. They. are not playing poll
tics but. on the contrary they are
avoiding it. The president believes
In announcing principles with such
clarity that they will speak for
themselves He has faith that what
ever honest differences may arise can
he smoothed out by conference, and
that this will occur early in the pro-
ceedings.
There is a noticeable decrease of
expressions of misgiving and of sus-
picion on the part of the British
press and by public men in England.
This may be due to the fact that the
election is past, and bogies are no
longer needed to scare the voters
into party channels.
Fears Fast Disappear.
The feeling of timidity and doubt
that was manifest at the time OF the
presidents arrival may be laid to the
fear that he might be swayed unduly
toward leniency for Germany Each
day since his arrival has added to
the strength of the conviction that
Americas position will not antago-
nize any proper interest that rests on
justice, and that the only collisions
likely are those in which self-inter-
est and the spirit of exploitation over
run fairer attitude.
The intensity and cordially of the
public reception of the president
warrant the belief that the attitude
Of the French government in respect
to peace demands has already been
affected by his visit. If there were
plans afoot to isolate the president
in the peace conference by diplomatic
maneuvers, such intent bids fair to
prove abortive. At this moment the
statement is justified that other gov
ernments need the president more
than he needs them. He has become
a source of strength to their programs.
Realization of this fact has gone far
toward smoothing out wrinkles, some
real and some imaginary, which had
on the face of the situation.
So far, the president has been siz-
ing up the problems that are ahead.
Behind the clouds of conjecture as to
the meaning and happenings OF vari-
Gus conferences, there is certainty
that each of them has marked stepI
toward fuller harmony and more SYM
pathetic understanding between the
Americans and the French.
