A BIG SALE

The largest individual grove sale
ever made in the state was consumat-
ed last Saturday when the title TO the
Yynchburg groves four miles north of
this place passed from the syndicate
of local men who owned it to Mr.. c.
X Smith of Worchester, Mass.
The consideration is not made pub
lie but it is understood to be well
toward the half-millicn mark. II is
undoubtedly the largest price ever
paid by an individual for a. citrus
grove in Florida.
Some years since Mr.. Smith who
was a prominent coal operator of his
home state bought the famous Beach.
am grove at Orlando. This he recent
ly sold. After looking over the entire
state for grove investment he and his
son We're through the solicitation of
j. Walker Pope and A. B. Slade. of Or
lando, induced TO come to Winter
Haven and view the Lynchburg, prom.

valuable holdings to them and they
are now in possession OF one of the
finest groves in the state where thew

ANOTHER cONFEDERATE VETER.
AN CROSSES THE GREAT
DIVIDE

At the meeting of the Confederate
veterans last Tuesday morning the
sudden death of Comrade George
Wells was announced in letter from
Comrade L. T. Matchett to Adjutant
Aver.
A most praiseworthy tribute was
paid to the memory of the deceased
by Comrade M. p. F'rink who was at
his side in some of the most terrific
battles of the war between the states.
The Camp was told that Comrade
Wells enlisted in the service at the
beginning of hostilities and his record
throughout was irreproachable.
He was member of Capt. John w.
Pearsons company which was raised
in the vicinity Of Orange Springs. 1t
was assigned to the Ninth Florida reg
iment, commanded by Colonel John
M. Martin, who still survives and is
a most honored citizen OF Ocala, who
speaks in high terms of the sOldiery
qualities of our deceased friend.
When Capt Pearson was shct down
in the battle of the Wilderness Com
rade Wells rushed to his assistance
and carried him off the field of battle
to a place of safety but his wound
proved mortal.
The army comrades of Comrade
Wells unite in saying that he was a
good soldier: that he shirked no duty,
and was cool and brave in battle.
He attended the late reunion at Or
lando and was all the while in the
most cheerful spirits and was enthus-
iastic in his praise of the hOnors that
were shown to all who attended that
meeting.
When the summons came for him to
answer tC the last roll call he was
visiting his brother. Mr.. Issac Wells at
Turner Farm. He retired to bed on
Thursday night of last week as well
as usual and was found dead in his
bed the next morning.
Without pain or suffering his soul
took it's flight and is now occupying
a place in company with any number
of immortal heroes.

ocALA's NEW STREET suPERlN-
TENDENT

Mr.. John r. Martin has beens ap-
pointed to the place of superintendent
of streets made vacant by the death
of Mr.. Marsh.
Mr.. Martin has taken hold with a
vim and it is predicted that he will be
as thorough and efficient in his new
post as he has been in other places
that he has occupied.
He says. however, that his appoint
ment is not permanent That he is
only holding it temporarily. When his
work proves unsatisfactory; when
some one else is found more efficient
and better qualified that the place
will be Immediately vacant. He will
step down and out
So far Mr. Martin has given most
excellent satisfaction and his good be-
ginning foresetts that he will become
permanent fixture.

TAMPA LOSES A FINE CITIZEN

Referring to the accidental drowning
of Jack Mahoney of Tampa, the Or
lando Reporter-Star says:
"A real city builder passed away
when Jack Mahoney. of Tampa was
drowned in that city at moonlight. In
the forefront of every movement for
the city,s betterment. giving literally
of his means and a perfect dynamo of
energy in civic progress as he was
in his private business. the loss of
such a live wire is a distinct catas-
trophe to any community. Men of
the calibre and qualifications of j.
7. Mahoney are scarce in Florida. and
his accidental death makes gap in
the ranks of hustlers who accomplish
things that viii be felt Throughout the
state as well as in Tampa"

ent dominates the governments finan-
clal situation is that seven and a half
billions of its war indebtedness mature
within the next two and half years
OF this amount, two and half billions
are floating debt and five billions vic
tory notes and war savings certifi-
Gates. The fiscal programme of the
government must be- determined with
reference TO these maturities. Sound
policy demands that government ex-
pendltures be reduced to the lowest
amount which will permit the various
services TO operate efficiently and that
government receipts from taxes and
salvage be maintained sufficiently high
to provide for current requirements,
including interest and sinking fund
charges on the public debt, and at the,
same time retire the floating debt and
part of the Victory loan before matur-
ity. With rigid economy. vigorous sal
wage operations and adequate revenu-
eS from taxation, surplus of current
receipts over current expenditures can
be realized and should be applied to
the floating debt. All branches of the
government should cooperate to see
that this programme is realized.
Economy Necessary
. | cannot over-emphasize the neces-
sity of economy in government approp-
riaticns and expenditures and the
avoidance by the Congress OF practices
which take money from the treasury
by indefinite or revolving fund approp-
riations. The estimates for the pres
ent year show that over a billion dol
lars of expenditures We're authorized
by the last Congress in addition to the
amounts shown in the usual compiled
statements of appropriations. This
striking illustrates the Importance of
making direct and specific appropri-
ations. The relation between the cur
rent receipts and current expenditures
of the government during the present
fiscal year, as well as during the last
half of the last fiscal year, has been
disturbed by the extraordinary bur-
dens thrown upon the treasury by the
transportation act, in connection with
the return of the railroads to private
control Over s60O,O0O.00 has already
been paid to the railroads under this
act-S350, 100000 during the present
fiscal year; and it is estimated that
further payments aggregating possibly
$3.50, 100000 must still be made to the
railroads during the current year. 1t
is obvious that these large payments
have already seriously limited the gov
ernment's progress. in retiring the
floating debt.
Need Tax Revision
Closely connected with this, it seems
TO me, is the necessity for an imme-
date consideration of the revision of
our tax laws. Simplification CT the in
come and profit taxes has become an
immediate necessity. These taxes per-
formed an indispensable service dur.
ing the war. The need for their sim
plification, however, is very great, in
order to save the taxpayer incon-
yenience and expense. and in order
/ to make his liability more certain and
definite. Other and more detailed
recommendation with regard to taxes
will no doubt be laid before you by
the Secretary of the Treasury and the
1 Commissioner of Internal Revenue.
