ALPHA COMMUNITY CHURCH.

Federation does not mean. neces-
sarily. the remuneration OF denomina-
tional principles upon the part oil
those who form the new union. IL
means only the subordination OF
creed and doctrine. and the emphasis
OF common Christianity in an effort
10 elevate mankind by improving the
social and spiritual conditions OF the
local community.
1T means. in the concrete, that IN
stead of attempting 10 half maintain
four or FIVE half-paid preachers and
churches I'm one parish, the available
funds and energy will be directed to-
wards the decent support OF one or
TWO ministers and churches.
Federation means, increased sal
aries for ministers. larger congre-
cations and Sunday schools, better
church buildings. increased social,
religious and civic consciousness, and
"a more Christ-like spirit OF harmony
and unity"

the first OF April These situations
entailed very great expense to The
Red Cross.
Abroad the coming OF peace open
ed up areas unbelievably devastated
particularly in the countries in cast
ern Europe. Such was the magni-
tude Of the task Of administering re-
lief that for awhile the Red Cross
feared that the funds on hand would
be insufficient to last until this Nov
ember The effective work of those
directly i'm charge of the activities
enabled the Red Cross to wind up
more rapidly than had been antici-
pated that portion Of the wrok which
was susceptible OF being terminated
and for which appropriations had
been made on wartime scale. As n
result there were many savings from
appropriations made and the reports
for the month OF September show that
for the coming year approximately
fourteen million five hundred thousand
dollars will remain and be available
out OF the forty-one million dollars
turned over by the war council ON
February 2Sth. This sum OF fourteen
million five hundred thousand dollars
will be added 10 the proceeds OF the
campaign which begins next week.
The Red Cross must now complete
It's work for our soldiers and their
families and round out it's wartime
program. In Europe the needs for aid
are simply without limit. The larger
needs can only be met by the govern
ments, but there Is an imperative call
for emergency relief where the pro-
cesses OF government are too slow TO
aid those suffering acute affliction
The sum now asked for by the Red
Cross will enable this great organiza-
ton to do a proportional piece
OF reliet work abroad, carry out at
home It's activities planned for the
New Year and furnish proper re
serves to provide for emergencies or
disasters
"The American people who have
responded so intellectually and up
on such a magnificent scale 20 pas
appeals OF the Red Cross will. am
sure be eager again to avail them
selves during the coming week OF tn,
opportunity to enlist themselves on
the rolls Of the Red Cross and there
BY eradicate the efforts OF this grca'
organization 70 the service OF hu
manity."

get into controversy with the editor
OF paper, because / would have very
little show in such argument; how
ever, since you and Alderman Thomas
have had a few words to say about the
Ocala House tax matters, and it
seeming to me that you have both
omitted a very essential fact which
ought to be considered in arriving at
a just conclusion of the act of the
council before criticising them,
thought it not improper that | also
answer it.
In the first place, Mr.. Editor, you,
either through lack of knowledge, or
unwillingnessto give the whole case,
have omitted any reference to a suit
brought against the city by Mrs. Ed
wards which resulted in the court
holding that the 1916 assessment was
void. This left the city without any
certificate as a basis, and therefore it
was essential to have an enabling act
of the Legislature, or to make some
proper adjustment. This property has
for many years paid a large amount
of tax, and the owner was not unwill-
ing to pay a reasonable amount. but
we all know that an assessment of
100000 on this property was absurd; !;
it was certainly out of line with all
of the other assessments around the
public square. Mrs. Edwards offered
to pay on a basis of $4,000 for the
three years remaining delinquent. We
N
fact from a standpoint of actual
value, it was as much or more than
any other property was being assess
ed around the square. Consequently,
viewing the matter from a business
standpoint, aloof from all sentiment,
we considered it best, and therefore
took the amount offered, which was
$1575 for the three years, or the
amount the city would have received
had the assessment been proper In
the first place; and again, we felt
that the finances of the city would be
best taken care of, as it would be only
a question of per cent. interest on
| $525 for two years. and on $525 for
one year, or a total of 1926 that the
city would get at the best above the
amount offered, and the costs of the
litigation in the suit above named
| would exceed the amount of interest
Mrs. Edwards paid the cost of the
litigation, which relieved the city OF
this item, and l still say that if it
were again before us l would, as a
business man, vote to accept the offer
Yours truly, B. Goldman.

ANALYSIS OF THE VETOES THAT
GOVERNOR Cats IS SO PROUD OF

A few weeks ago, We reprinted a
circular issued by Gov. Cats, in
which he presented his claims to the
people as a candidate for the high Of
fee Of United States senator. We
saw little virtue in any Of his claims,
and much Stiffness and some untruth
n most of them, but as we wanted to
give the old man fair deal we print
ell them without comment. However.
We did not say We would not expose
their fallacy some day, and in the
following in which We have been aided
by gentleman who has been highly
successful both as a lawyer and a
legislator we will try to show our
readers how Mr.. Cats vctoes have
been of anything but benefit TO his
state and some of his other acts have
virtue only in his own eyes and those
he succeeded in binding.
FetOes: At the best the state is
no better off than it would have been
had none of the vetoed bills been
PASSED by the legislature Some of
the vetOes may have been justified;
none of them showed any evidence of
constructive craftsmanship merely a
case of preserving the present status.
Of one of his vetoes, the governor
says: "The general revenue bill, a bill
in which a shrewd Chicago lawyer
had induced the Legislature to pass
enactments whereby if a person did
rot pay his taxes at the right time,
the added cost to said taxes would be
$3.50, though delayed just a few
months and even if the original
amount was not more than $3.50"
We doubt the benefit of the gov
ernOr's veto in this instance. The
bill was carefully drawn up by legis-
latOrs, every man Of whom has been
in the state longer than Cats and
knows more of its needs. That stuff
about the "shrewd Chicago lawyer
was pure bunk, like the three men,
the fifty thousand dollar bribe and the
inkstand story. Our county commits
sioners certainly do not like this veto.
This county has almost 100000 in
tax certificates that it cannot use.
Had the governor not vetoed the bill.
these could have been validated and
sold, and the money therefrom would
have greatly lightened the burden of
the tax payers.
The governor says of another veto.
"AIso bill which would have caused
the arrest of any locomotive engineer
or fireman who had a train> stopped
longer than ten minutes on a crossing.
1
have put a penalty on the operator
and not the company, which would be
wrong, thus protecting the brave en-
The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1919-08-05

gineers and firemen who risk their
lives for the people.)"
This is another chunk of ignorance
and Stiffness. No railroad company
docks its employees for carrying out
orders. 1t is hardly possible for a
town or county to fine a railroad COM
pany for blocking a track or violation
Of law or ordinance, so it arrests
ard fines the employees, but the COM
pany always makes the employees loss
good unless he disobeyed or neglected
orders. There are log railroads in
many counties that let their trains
stand as much as an hour right across
public highways, making the people
wait or drive around, sometimes a
mile or more. Brave engineers and
ETtmeE" indeed. It's the owners OF
the roads Cats protects, and prob
abIy a bunch of them went to Talla-
h&ssee to see him. Next time your
auto OF buggy or wagon is stopped on
r,inutes, while a log train standing
squarely across it unloads slowly car
by car, you can thank Cats.
First of the governors claims fol-
lowing his vetoes is as follows: "He
has given the people better official
service by removing bad officers and
encouraging good ones to do their
duty. This has resulted in the people
having better official service than ever
before in the history of Florida"
The answer to this claim is that, as
a result of the governors removing
bad officers and encouraging good
ones to do their duty" the legislature
50 far has appropriated $18,507.66 to
reimburse for loss of compensation
officers removed by Governor Cats
without sufficient cause, and promptly
reinstated by the senate. The governor
vetoed the bill appropriating $71.O9 to
reimburse B. B. Johnson, county
Judge of Hamilton county, on the
ground that the senate acted without
proper consideration of the evidence,
and approved all of the other relief
bills, thereby confessing (at the
states eXpense) that the suspensions
were not justified. In other words,
the state has paid double salaries and
fees, as a result of these unwarranted
suspensions, considerable more than it
pain in the same length of time on the
governors own salary. In the cases
OF Marcus Endel and G. B. McKinnon
pure food inspectors, who were reim-
bursed to the extent of $2212 each,
the governor admitted in a message
to the senate that his order suspend
feasance and neglect of duty in office, ,
was absolutely without foundation in
fact, and was an "honest mistake" on
