Gov. Cats had another Of his meet
ings in Jacksonville the other eve
ming, and the people as usual got his
goat, teasing him in reply to his
abuse We are forced to the conciu-
sion that Gov. Cats deliberately
brings these attacks on himself. At
his meeting here, the crowd went out
with the intention of giving the cid
man a respectful hearing and pleas
ant evening, and doubtless when it
was over many would have shaken
hands with him and sent him away
with some respect and lot of good
will. This was what the Star bad
planned and hoped for. But the gov
ernor wouldn't have it so-he went
on the stand with his lighting rods
up, and drew considerable more cleo
tricity than he relished

We fear we misrepresented Mr.. w.
j. Folks when we said in yesterdays
issue that he probably voted for bonds
in the last election. We hear he has
been denouncing said bond issue and
saying it was carried "by Ocala and
the niggers." So it seems that after
all he thought Marion was a pauper
county-he wanted her to have good
roads, but the money from other
counties must build them. And Uncle
Billy
Should look up some fggers
Before talking about niggers.
Light would not have made a break
like that. In the 1916 general election
there were less than 500 republican
votes cast in Marion county, and of
these at least a hundred. perhaps
more, were white. In the bond cleo
ton of April 20 last there were only
406 votes against bonds, which equals
the normal negro vote in the county.
Does Uncle Billy mean to tell us the
solid negro vote was cast for bonds
If he does he will bring an indignant
protest from lot of good white citi-

FINE OF $500 AND
PRISON TERM FOR WOOD
Accused of Selling Whisky by
Witness Who Alleged He
Bought Drinks.

A sentence Of $500 and q term of i'm
prisonment in the workhouse of nine
months, WAS imposed On William Woods,
charged with selling intoxicating liquor,
after hearing by Judge Hastings, In
Municipal Court today.
A raid was made on Woods place, at
Detectives Riley, johnson and Mcdaniel.
The authorities had been watching Wood 8
place for some time and on Friday sent
Preston Rash IN to buy liquor. He was
given q marked dollar bill with which TO
make the purchase. Rash said he got
three drinks of whisky before the de-
tectives raided the place.
Wood recognized the Micers when they
entered and taunted them with saying
"too late gentlemen, the evidence is all in
here" patting his stomach. A search Of
the place was made and only small
quantity of liquor was found in glass.
Wood claimed that he did not sell any
liquor, but that the stuff, he sold was
"porto-vino." The officers claimed that
no HPortovino" had been found in
Woods place, but Attorney Garrett, for
the defendant, produced bottle of the
stuff in court. He also contended that the
liquor in the glass was not whisky, but
some other concoction. Much amusement
was caused by his effgt to have some one
pronounce an opinion on whether the
liquid was whisky. All the witnesses were
made to smell it and give their opinion.
Mr.. Garrett also asked the judge to give
his opinion, but he refused on the ground
that he was no expert In such ma tiers

Papal under-secretary of State, AND
former representative of the Vatican in
Washington, at banquet given in his
honor tonight by the 300 American
Knights of Columbus now here, said be
longed to return to the United States
the worthiest country in which to live,
although it has gone dry"
The affair was the largest American
gathering that has occurred in Rome
Monsignor Cerretti had Supreme Knigh,
James A. Flaherty, of Philadelphia, on
his right and Edward l.. Hearn, general
commissioner of Europe, of the knights
of Columbus on his left. William j
Mulhgan Of Thompsonville, Conn, and
John +. O'Neill of Jersey City, members
of the board of direc ctors of the knights
of Columbus had places of honor.
Monsignor Cerretti was the first speaker
and received a great ovation when be
began "My dear brother knights" He
said the Pope had given his highest ap-
proval of the work of the Knights and he
could not add more.
"Your visit to Rome has been a ray OF
sunshine in the Vatican" Monsignor
Cerretti said. II never saw the Pope more
satisfied than after your visit, which he
said was one Of the greatest consultations
for him. Rome now is your home. You
heard the Pope express the wish that the
knights establish themselves here.
II long to return to America where !
spent the happiest years of my life.

Monsignor Cerretti's address was con-
tinually interrupted by applause, especi-
ally when he handed the insignia Of st.
Gregory The Great to Supreme Knight
Flaherty,
Mr.. Flaherty said he accepted the
decoration as recognition of the great work
done by the knights of Columbus.
At this point the lights went out, owing
to the Roman electricians joining the
strike called in other cities. Candies were
brought in and Mr.. Flaherty continued
his speech. Ten minutes later electric
light was provided by q private plant.
