NOW THE RAILROAD MEN? :?

On 1op Of the coal strike come ru- mors that the railroad men of the country are planning to abandon their jobs on December 1 and go out on a general strike, although the lead CTS of two of the trades involved, w. G. Lee of the Trainmcn and Timnthy Shea. Of the Engineers and Firemen, deny that there Is any truth in the however. owing to he strikes which have, recently come about and the conditions which governed them. Leaders have been al 8 discount n most of the recent 4Walhouts, despite their good intentions, as announ"ed through the press.
 The railroad men were among the foremost in the more pay for more expenses" movement but. in justice to them. it must be admitred that the unions did not adopt highly arbitrary m let hOds in their demands. They asked that their wages be raised in event that prices did not go down. Prices may have decreased since that time but the decrease has been so ticeahle to anyone. The announce ment was m; de Ut the time that the "peak' of prices had been reached. We vunturc that it had, in most ;t is that we have not yet concluded 10 go down the other side of the motn- tain Of living. The peak is entertain | ing us over long. If strike on the part of the railroad men was jusG-

 their starvation wages" il is justi ] fled now. The starvation process is l still going on.> But there are many ! who contend that the railroad man
 was getting sufficient wages to live in ] comfort when he was complainins l that the reverse was true. lf that was | so then, it is so now. Therefore, . there may be no justification of the

 We refuse to believe that the wa SeS : of the railroad man. as a whole. lead to starvation. il seems impossible. | There may he occasional individuals ] who have not the required amount in | their pay envelope to meet expenses. | These men should be taken care of in

Regarding Same

the Dixie Highway voted 5I4 for bonds
272 against bonds.
More than 1-2 of the voters who
voted in the bond election voted in
these nine precincts.
Two precincts along the Dixie High
way gave a majority of "a against
bonds showing majority of 242, near
ly two to one for bonds.
These figures prove that the tax
payers who live along the Dixie High
way wanted to meet the Federal and
State aid proposition and to have
good lasting road built.
These figures prove that the voters
living along the Dixie Highway were
willing to be taxed more than their
share, to have good roads In other
sections of the county.
l respectfully call attnetion to the
voters who live in these nine precincts
to petition the County Commissioners
to call another suh-road district bond
election, including the election pre-
cincts of Mcintosh, Reddick, Martin,
Belleview, Kendrick, Summerfield,
Lake Weir, Ocala and Stanton and
no other territory, and no other road
included in the bond issue.
A bond issue of this kind for $780,.
600 will have the tax pa:ers along the
Dixie Highway quite sum compared
to the defeated issue.
My reasons for only wanting this
one road included is because the ma.
jority of voters on every other road
of importance voted against bonds in
the last election, and they should have
what they voted for. Another reason
why want bond election soon, is
because the lime rock that is now be-
ing used on the Dixie Highway will
be too costly to keep in good shape,
with the heavy travel now going over
this road, as the Federal and State
Government proposed to bear IL the
expense, thereby lessening the cost
of thetax payer of the proposed bond
district fully IL.

prove that good roads built by bond

people, Reddick precinct had 1927 at
the same time, Martin had 719, Ken

with a statement Of the sub-school
taxes paid In the year 1918, and in

precincts pay fully IL of the taxes OF
