A DANGEROUS Prisoner.

wide cloak about his shoulders, and
high hat with broad brim. Even at

long hair was gray. and that a heavy
mustache, snoW-White, made more no.

SENATOR TRAMMELL CRITICISED

Some of our exchanges are indulg-
ing in criticisms of Senator Trammell
because of his vote against Senator
Underwood for democratic leader on
the floor of the senate.
We do not join in that criticism.
Senator Trammell voted for the re-
election of Senator Gilbert M. Hitch
cock of Nebraska, who from every
point OF view, it occurs to us, deserv.
ed reelection. On all occasions he
has held up the hands of the admin
istration as zealously and as Loyalty
as Aaron held up the hands of Moses,
and in every way showed his devotion
to the principles of the democratic
party.
Sectionalism, it seems to us, should
not have entered into the selection
and we commend Senator Trammell
for the courage he displayed in voting
for the reelection of Senator Hitch.
cock and we deem it unfortunate that
the vote was not unanimous.

as he is now regarded to have been,
was not above the criticism of Patrick
Henry and a great many of smaller
caliber.
Referring to him in one of his i'm
passioned speeches Patrick Henry
said:
Even of that illustrious man who
saved us by his valor, would have
reason for his conduct"
1t is not for mortals to escape crit
icism and condemnation.
So why should Woodrow Wilson be
in class by himself?
This paper thinks that he should
be loved for the critics who are shoot
ing their big guns and pop guns at
him from so many directions. During
the progress of the war he was the
enemy of every pacifist and Stacker:
he was the enemy of every one who
opposed the draft act and espionage
act.
He is now the enemy of every SOW
let, socialist, bolshevist and of every
sorehead in the country.
Every one of the individuals who
are reaching out after the republican
nomination for the presidency are
seeing which can say the meanist
things about him.
He is the enemy of every one who
is opposed to the League of Nations
which stands next to the declaration:
Peace on Earth Good Will toward
Men"
Readers of history find no surprise
In the fact that Woodrow Wilson has
enemies and is surrounded with a
hungry horde of malignant critics.
They have infested and cursed the
earth since the beginning of time.

GOVERNOR CATS OPENING GUN
FOR THE U. S. SENATE

Governor Sidney j. Cats began his
campaign for the United States SEN
ate in Gainesville. Colonel Robt. w.
Davis the very tolerant and fair-mind.
ed editor of the Gainesville Sun, made
one of the audience and in comment
ing on the address made the following
criticism:
I'VE personally went to hear the
governor and his speech was fairly
reported in this paper the following
morning by our reporter. We had
supposed he would discuss national
and international affairs, because it is
with those things United States SEN
ator has to deal. He did not even
touch upon them. To the contrary, in
the language of our own reporter, he
held forth in a medley of metaphors
and played on many strings to arouse
the enthusiasm of his hearers.
He gave no views of his own about
matters with which a senator has to
deal. He gave no inkling of what
amount Of senatorial timber he had
in his makeup. He spoke no word
about remedy for the general state
of unrest prevailing in this govern
ment. He devoted himself entirely to
self-praise and referred only to
achievement in his administration as
governor He took credit for every
thing. He gave the legislature no
credit. He gave no one any credit
but himself. All, how brilliantly and
fervidly he sang his own praises. We
heard him say he had made zone mis-.
take"-just one, and that was about
some little appointment.
He forgot to mention the fact that
the taxpayers of FLORIDA are paying
higher taxes today than they have
since tn days of reconstruction. He
forgot to mention that Florida has
more expensive boards and commits
sions and inspectors drawing salaries
or running about over the country at
the expense of the taxpayers, than
ever before in it's history He forgot
to mention the many thousands of
dollars he has cost the state by re.
moving officers who were afterwards
reinstated by the state senate, leaving
the taxpayers to pay both officers.
THE governor mas a convenient
memory"
The Ocala banner. (Ocala, Marion County, Fla.) 1883-194?, 1920-01-30
SHOULD BE LOVED FOR THE ENE.
MES HE HAS MADE

1t is not at all reasonable to sup
pose that President Wilson should es-
cape criticism.
No man who has ever lived, who
has accomplished things, but did so
under fusilade of criticism.
1t is the common fate of all human
ity.
Read the fate of what befell many
of those old Biblical characters even
before the time of Christ, and what
OF the fate of Christ and his apostles
and thousands of his disciples since?
How many of them went through
the world on flowery beds of ease?
What happened to Calico and to
Columbus and to thousands of the
worlds hest-best in all things
throughout the ages?
1t is sickening story.
So why should Wilson escape? No
man ever did so who has occupied
the presidential office.
Patrick Henry, who did so much
to kindle the fires of the revolution,
was bitterly opposed to the adoption
of the United States constitution,
which has since received so many
plaudits of approval.
George Washington was very much
in favor Of it, vet pure and spotless

Then, Mr.. z. c. Chambliss, whose
magnificent virtues are enumerated
in another column.
And, now, Mr.. Thomas l. Arnold is
called to pass through the dark
shadow of the valley of death" to join
this splendid company whose deaths
are so greatly deplored.
Though modest and retiring there
has seldom been fashioned a finer
type of the perfect citizen than T. l.
Arnold.
Generous, benevolent and progress
sive, he stood ever ready to do his
full part in every forward movement.
Mr.. Arnold was in his Goth year,
having been born near Bryon, Ga.
June 16. 1860. He came to Anthony
as early as 1884. He first engaged
in phosphate mining with the late Mr.
Mcdowell and afterwards engaged in
the orange industry with H. B.
Stevens at Citra. He next engaged in
the pineapple industry at Orlando
Returning to Marion county in con-
junction with Mr.. Mcdowell, he es
tablished the well known Mcdowell
Crate and Lumber Company, one of
the big manufacturing plants of our
county.

The body was taken to Jacksonville

Mrs. Arnold, Mr.. F. H. Logan, Miss
Mary Marshall, Mrs. H. B. Clarkson
