Need of Red Cross In
France Told BvMuYbhv

The need of the American Red
Cross in France during the recon
struction period is set forth today
by Capt. M. w. Murphy in a letter to
the American Red Cross of Fargo, in
response to a request by the branch
for statement concerning the peace
work.

quest for an expression as to the
need for continuance Of Red Cross

PROPOSED ZONE RATES
CONTINUED from page 1.)

North Dakota are handicapped by
the rates from our competitors in
this further material increase while
big cities are left untouched.
Policy Not Defended.
Building up big cities at the ex-
pense Of the smaller ones is some
thing we have yet to hear openly de-
Tended, and yet that is what the
present system of freight rates Is
doing. Thoughtful men everywhere
are beginning to ask if the manu-
featuring and jobbing in this coun-
try should not be decentralized and
the small towns given their share.
The post war reconstruction policies
Of our country, with the recurrent
back to- the-land movement, and the
problem of taking care OF returned
soldiers blend themselves harmon
iously with such a movement. Now is
the time to give the small city and
country point square deal on the
freight rates problem. The con-
sumer is entitled to have opportun-
ity to do business at the small town
or the big town, as he pleases."

SHE WON'T LAST LONG
LOCAL LEGISLATION

Nothing unusual developed at Tues
day nights council meeting.
There were only three members
present, Alderman Thomas being alb
sent from the city. Mayor Chase and
the other officials were present, ex-
cept Superintendent Marsh, who is
confined to his home on account of
illness.
The matter of furnishing power to
the Ocala Ginning Company was taken
up and after much discussion every
thing was satisfactorily thrashed out
and power will be cut in as soon as
apparatus can be put in the building.
The city manager was instructed to
Investigate condition of several water
meters which are giving trouble on
account of alleged improper opera
ton.
Upon recommendation of the city
manager, the water rent for the Car
michael building for the months of
April, May and June were reduced to
$27.57 on account of inefficient meter

A letter from Mr.! T. T. Munroe
president of the Marion County Hos
pital was read and filed. 1t stated
thart the hospital was now in position
to care for the pauper patients or
account of assistance furnished by the
!. city.
The city managers report was read
and approved. The report is made out
in detail and includes the reports Of
other city officers.
Petitions were presented by Messrs
B. Goldman, r. c. Loveridge and J
w. johnson, as aspirants for the po
sitior of alderman from the fourtl
ward. They were examined and fount
correct, and these three names or
dered placed upon the official baiio
for the election to be held on Septem
ber goth to fill the unexpired term o
Alderman Nash, resigned.
There is considerable doubt tina
Mr.. johnson can qualify. He will no
be an elector at the coming election
as he hasn't paid his poll tax for 1917
Also, tho he is registered IN tn
fourth ward. he has his residence
the first. Either of these objections
under the charter, prevent him fror
holding office in case of his election.

APPEAL To CITIZENS
Of MARION COUNTY
We ARE FAR BEHIND on OUR WAR STAMPS QUOTA AND
MUST DO OUR BEST TO CATCH UP
Ocala. Fla, Aug. 21, 1918.


Dear Sir: This is personal letter;
a personal appeal to you as citizen
of Marion county and as citizen of
the United States. Take time to read
this and to read it to every member
of your family. Then act so that the
entire state will know that Marion
county is 100 per cent loyal. 1t is an
appeal for you. for your county. for
your country.
For you: Because it is your duty to
make every sacrifice for your coun-
try. Because it will encourage you to
save, if you have never saved before,
and to invest safely if you have the
habit Of saving.
For your county: Because Marion
county has gone over the top in eve
rything demanded of her; in Liberty
Loan drives, Y. M. G. A. drives, Red
Cross drives and in men. Because
Marion county is far behind her quota
of $589. .O8O for war savings stamps,
having purchased and pledged less
than 33 per cent. Because Marion
county must purchase her quota.
For your country: Because she is
calling every citizen to his place OF
duty, either in the battle line or at
home to back the men in the battle
line that they may win and win quick
ly. You are at home and have no ex-
cuse for not doing all you can. Amer
lea needs your money.
Remember, that even though you
should borrow to buy WSS, there are
men-your sons, your neighbors. your
men who are paying their debt. their
debt of loyalty to their country and
your country, paying with cold
cash, but with blood, with life, that
which cannot be returned to them.
Think that whatever sacrifice yor
may make it is as nothing to the sac.
rifice our battle men are making fol
you and yours while you are at home
enjoying. comforts and family. If yor
insist that you need not buy govern
ment securities-lend money to your
government in time of need, are yot
better than the man who makes
profit from war?
Act. Sign the enclosed pledge t.
purchase war savings stamps-no
one, for you surely do not want tina
as the measure of your patriotism
but all you possibly can. Send tn
isigned pledge slip to the undersigned
L. w. Duval,
Chmn. Marion Co. w. S. S. Com.
1 N. B.-This pledge will be addl
tional to your June pledge, if yo'
made one.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 21.-Complete
returns from a number of general
southern cities and scattered figures
from small towns and precincts thru
out Mississippi last night show Con-
gressman B. p. Harrison running far
ahead of Senator James K. Vardaman
and former Governor Noel in the SEN
atorial primary. Harrison's support
ers declare it wilH be impossible for
the junior senator to get enough votes
to make second primary necessary.
Vardaman lost his home city of Jack
son, and his home precinct. President
Wilson's letter is regarded as a
strong factor in cutting down the
vardaman vote.
