pALATKA PLANS TO FIGHT.

Definite plans are being perfected for deter
mined contest to have the Centennial Purchase Commits
sion select Paatka the site for the Centennial Far
concentrating the Florida purchase.
At a meeting Of the Business Mems Association in
Paatka was agreed after careful survey of the differ
or, cities throughout the State, That cher ely in he
State offered natural facilities and advantages parallel
in selecting site equal to those offered by Paatka.
When the bill passed in the Legislature provid-
n for an exposition it the of those ntroduc
ing the that the exposition should be located in
section of the State easily Bile from all cities, pre-
sumably meaning that the location should be at the in
c1secton of several trunk lines Of railroad And with
his thought in mind the citizens of Paatka believe that
he location of the fair their city will be advantageous
all the cities of the State. The housing problem is one
hat will be confronted by any city selected 1t point
ed that Paatka centrally located and in close proH
unity to the hotel cities of Florida Groups of tourist
hotels are St. Augustine, Dayona, Ormond New Smyr
and even far south West Palm Beach and Miami
considered by virtue of excellent train schedules and
within the scope of housing facilities for Paatka. Bust
ness and visitors leave Miami on the evening
train, arriving in Palaka at o'clock in the morning and
can return again the following eveg Paatka can also
lay claim to commercial hotels at Jacksonville, Gainesville,
Oeala, Green Cove Springs, Lakeland and Tampa with
nnumerabe smaller hotels and housing facilities in small
or cities and towns surrounding it.
Palaka is located midway between Pensacola and Nj
ami and on trunk lines leading to and connected with
every principal city in the State with good highways at
ordng easy to and from the proposed exposition
grounds
Palatka regards Pensacola the only active appll-
cant for the location of the exposition in the State and
feels that it is too disance from what is really
Florida be selected for the exposition 1t is located
on the extreme western section of the State and is of the
Appalachian basin and does not represent the typlca
Florida either in flora fauna and the impression vsl
tors would receive of the State would be erroneous
The Palatka organization has asked for hearing be
fore the commission, at which time great stress will b.
laid upon its claim and elaborate map showing dis
tances housing facilities rail and water transpOrtatiOns
situation and elevation of land proposed for the exposition
site will be placed before the commission.
An effort is being made to enlist the support Of al
cities in the State ofFlorda in locating the exposition
the Gem City upon the ground Of its accessibility centra
location and proximity to all the principal cities of Florida
The slogan of Palatka is, keep the Fair Within Eas!

Vessella's Band a Treat.

1t is apparent that Palatka cares
little for good music, or else would
not believe that Vessella's band was
one of the foremost concert organiza-
tons of the country. The appear
ance of this great maestro at the Ar
cade last night was greeted by but lit
tie over hundred people. These
seemed thoroughly appreciative.
Oreste Vessella who has been ro-
nounced one of the four greatest band
leaders in the world-in his sphere
being only John Philip Sousa, Arthur
Pryor, and Creatore-is more than a
leader; he is band master in every
sense of the word. At all times he is
in complete control of every musician
before him, and the score he uses has
inscribed upon it each note for every
instrument. He reads all of these
simultaneously and actually directs
every member of his organization.
The result is a combination of tone
and harmony seldom achieved by 9TH
er bands. Moreover, each selection
on his rogram is especially written
for production by the twenty-five
pieces carried on this southern tour.
Professor Vessella, himself, has re-
arranged every score, and the men,
bers of his tand all lay from manu-
script music prepared by the great
leader. The reason for the necessity
of this Encouragement is made PLAIN
when it is understood that the Sec
ond Hungarian Rhapsody" by List,
for instance, was originally written
to be played by an organization Of
more than a hundred pieces. For
twenty-five men to attempt to play
It from the original score would be to
take much color from the picture AMI
spoil the whole. Vessella has, there
fore, rearranged the music for each
instrument so that none of the har-
mony is lost and all of what musicians
call the tone color is maintained The
trombone and euphonium duetto from
the opera la Fora del Destino," by
Verdi, rendered by Signori Bozzaccc

ADJUSTMENTS.
Great Fun Arcade Tomorrow.

One Of the rarest things in the
world-an original idea, is expressed
IN Goodbye, Bill" the John Emer-
son-Anita Loos production for Para
mount, starring those two sterling ar
lists, Shirley Mason and Ernest
Truck, which will be shown at the Ar.
cade tomorrow The photoplay sat-
Isles Wild Bill Hohenzollern from
start to finish. 1t shows how ne
hung his terrorism idea on the eye
CT the German people so effectually
that he thought sure it would work on
the rest of the world too.
Well, Bill didn't succeed in scar
ing the rest of the world, as we all
know, and he surely didn't scare the
authors of this new kind of Kaiser
play. They have fun with the Kai-
ser, the Crown Prince and the whole
Prussian gang and they do it effec-
lively. AS g. rule, the grimmer the
Job the American has to do, the more
he dkis himself about it. Over OH
the other side our boys have laughed
and joked III the face of death, as
they fought for the freedom of the
world, and this play brings some of
their healthy kidding to the folks at
home.

AFTER MIR. MADCO.

Undoubtedly there is fear If some quarters that Will
liam Gibbs McAdoo might be the Democratic nominee to
succeed Mr.. Wilson There surer signs than
prompt denuncationa by Republican and capitastc jour-
nas of every utterance Mr.. McAdoo is credited with,
few days ago The St. Augustine Record criticised
Mr. McAdoo for making public his knowledge of the pro-
fits of the coal operators Mr. MsAdoo was frank to say
that he gained his information while member of the
cabinet Now Mr.. McAdoo is criticised because he did
no, use this information before But is the criticism
fam?
We assume that Others Ike this paper, have some
sentimental preference for the next Democratic nominee
Ours is not Mr.. McAdoo, but do fail to see why ne
should be criticised for disclosing excessive profits of coal
operators at time when they obstinatey refusing
to yield the slightest to coal famine.
Mr. McAdoo came into possession Of the knowledge
of profits made by all the big corporations Of the country
during the war; did other members of the cabinet 1t
would undoubtedly require great deal of space in the
newspapers to tell just how many concerns enjoyed eX
cessive profits When these excessive profits figure in
commodity which is essential bread itself and the
these profits stand the way of preventing famine i'll
fuel paramount duty to offer in evidence at the
ria for settlement that the operators could afford to
yed more than the men,
We do not doubt but that Mr.. McAdoo would have
disclosed the profits of the operators on any occasion
nere such disclosure of public interest where there
was an issue which such disclosures might bring to just
conclusion
The Record quotes from the Pittsburg Leader poto-
rousy capastic paper, owned by steel and allied in
terests which says:
ii every man who wants i political job from the
presidency down to ward constable is to seize upon vital
problems as of getting, and destroy national

THE SPIRIT OF COOPERATION.

An incident of last nights meeting Of council mark
ed in Palatkas civic life 1t expressed grow
ing spirit of cooperation among citizens making up two
bodies which, if properly coordnaed work wonders
for the citythe council and the Business Mems Associ&

Ten days ago two members Of the publicity commit

sbity of Paatka Offering site for the Centennial eX

foldest hopes of anyone here little Investigating

Last night the matter was called to the attention Of
the council by formal resolution introduced by Alder
man Dineen Chairman lilly Of the Business Mems As
sociaon explained the hopes Of the association and the
plans that have already been made for the proper
sentation of Paatkas claims to the commission.
When the resolution read council voted unani-
mousy for it, extending official invitation to the centen
NAL commission Paatka and to select this city
as the exposition site.
As expressed by Alderman Direen council does not
merely wish back up any effort toward securing the
exposition or any other enterprise for the cys good but
wants to take leading part especially when the members
