Germans Digging in Ninety Miles
East of Bapaume.

London, August 24.-The Germans
evidently expect to be pressed back to
the Mouse, says the Amsterdam cor

they are fortifying positions along
that river in Belgium. The Germans
are digging extensive trenches be
tween Dinant and Givet. Thousands
of prisoners and Belgian civilians are
being used in the work.
Givet is ninety miles directly east

A FIGHT FOR LIFE

It has been fight or die for many
of us in the past and the lucky persons
are those who are now well because
they needed natures warning signal
In time to correct their trouble with
that wonderful new discovery Of DR..
Pierce's, called "An-uric." You should
promptly heed these warnings, some
of which are dizzy spells, backache,
irregularity of the urine or the pain
full twinges of rheumatism, sciatica or
lumbago. To delay may make pos
sible the dangerous forms of kidney
diseases such as stone in the bladder.
To overcome these distressing con-
ditions take plenty of exercise I'm the
open air, avoid heavy meat diet,
drink freely of water, and at each
meal take Doctor Pierce's Anuric Tab
lets double strength). You will, in
short time, find that you are one Of
the firm indorsers of Anuric.

CAESAR, MIST have been taking
DR.. Pierce's Anurfc Tablets for uric

President Wilson's objection to
courts martial for people accused of
disloyalty, because it may be uncon-
stitutional, is amusing. The food adj
ministration, which every sensible
person in the country supports, is not
constitutional, and Fuel Administra-
tor GarfeId's drastic order several
weeks ago, which had Mr.. Wilson's
full approval, was one of the most un-
constitutional things ever sprung on
the United States. The constitution
dose not guard US against Hunnish
deviltry.

When we went up street this morn
ing to obtain a dope, we met a friend,
who asked US where was allegiance.
We asked him what he meant, and he
said he saw in the Banner headline
this morning that the German
thrusts were held in Allegiance" and
he had almost worn out his map of
France trying to find Allegiance. We
told him to look in the dictionary in
stead of the geography, for we might
want to use that word ourself some
time

condition to start up at any minute.
The fuel administration is evidently
not aware that the plant of the Flor
ida Power Company is forty miles
from Ocala, that the lines would have
to run for miles thru uninhabited
country, and that there are hundred
places where an enemy could cut the
wires at any time. We are not in favor
of the city giving up its plant-the
source of its current should be located
at home, but abnormal war conditions
might make it advisable to use the
hydro-electric power until those con-
ditions become normal again.

Elsewhere, we print communica-
tons from the federal and state fuel
administrations, recommending that
the city of Ocala, in order to conserve
fuel, take electric current from the
Florida Power Company during the
war. The matter, we presume, will be
discussed by the council. We don't
know what effect our charter and city
ordinances will have on the PROPOSE
ton. We think it should be carefully
considered. The principal reason why
it should be considered is the difficulty
of obtaining fuel, which is becoming
greater all the time. The Star thinks
that if the Florida Power Company
will make the city a fair offer, it
would be well to consider it. There is
one condition, however, that it would
be absolutely necessary to enforce,
and that is that if the city took the
power company's current, the, city
plant must nevertheless be kept in

DR.. Lincoln Hulley has written a
beautiful poem entitled, "Our Earth
ly Paradise Florida" It is dedicated
to the people of Volusia county, but
could very appropriately be applied to
old Marion or any other part of our
state, as he
Sings of her sons, beneath the blue,
Sings of their courage rare,
Sings of the lads, the tried and true,
Sings of her ladies fair,
Sings of her tall and stately pines,
Her lakes and her crystal springs,
Her lordly river, the good st. Johns,
And all of the lovely things
That brighten the land we hold so
dear
With the beautiful smiling skies,
And the sea that brings US the love of
God,
To gladden. our hearts and eyes.

curling up along hundred yards of
trenches all the time, and the boys
would send up Star shell every once
in while to show their appreciation.

Pope Benedict will make another

says the Neueste Naechiten, of Mu-

Amsterdam of the Exchange Tele-

take the form of a "word of warning
addressed to the universal consci-
ence." This means it will not be ad-
dressed to the Germans, who have
proven that they have no conscience.
