Life is a cold and narrow vale be-
tween the barren peaks of two eter-
mites. We cry abound, but the only
answer is the echo of our cry. But
in the night of death hope sees a
star, and listening, love hears the
rustling of a wing.

Mrs. l.. N. Green's Sunday school
class of the Methodist church, which
presented the playlet Ruth" in
Ocala several weeks ago, gave the
play in Leesburg last night. 1t was
given in the auditorium of the high
school. Although the audience was
rather small, about $35 was added to
the building fund of the Methodist
church of this city, the remainder of
the receipts going to the high school
at Leesburg. The regular program
had been altered and changed some
what and the musical program was
supplemented with several extra
numbers. About a dozen cars took the
members of the cast and supporters to
Leesburg, leaving Ocala at six o'clock
last evening and returning after the
play.

Some time ago, a year, we suppose,

be allowed to raise rates to such a
point that they would be allie to place
themselves Oh a plane of efficiency
and prosperity But we didn't mean
that they should be allowed to play
the hog. They al raising the rates
to the point where the comon people
can't pay them. Some of our bust
ness men recently ordered a carload
of rough freight from a place in IL
linois. The commodity shipped cost
$3.50. The freight charges were S425
and the war tax was SIS. The buyers
came very near taking the pauper
oath and leaving the railroad to dis
pose of the car as best it could. If
this high freight business keeps up,
nobody but big corporation will be
able to ship anything, and we can see
where that will take US.

OCALA'S ATTITUDE
TOWARD THE CAPITAL

Since number of people, whose
and influence are not to be
doubted, have honored Ocala by nam
ing her as their choice for the cap
ital of Florida, and since a number of
people sincere and influential, have
honored another city in the same
manner, it is not out of place for the
Star to state Ocala's attitude.
In the first place, Ocala would be
glad to have the capital, and will do
anything honorable in her power to
obtain it. AT the same time, Ocala
realizes that the attempt to move the
capital is more from the desire of the
people to have it in more convenient
situation than it now is than from
love for any particular town.
Ocala is undoubtedly more accessi-
BILE than any other town in the state
With trunk lines of two big railway
systems passing thru it, and branch
lines converging on it. it can be reach
ed by more people in less time than
any other of Florida's cities.
Orlando is also most conveniently
situated, not quite so well as Ocala in
regard to railroads, somewhat better
for highways. Orlando is a splendid
little city; if she wins she shall be the
object of no envy from Ocala.
But beside Ocala and Orlando we
think two other towns have claims.
They are Gainesville and Lakeland
Gainesville is almost as well supplied
as OcaIa with railroads, is a little
nearer the north and west of the
state, little further from the south,
where the main greatness of the state
will be.
Lakeland is further south than the
others, and has only one railroad
system to depend on. But it is much
more accessible than Tallahassee and
almost as much so as Orlando.
There is no need to speak of the
people of these four cities, nor of
those of Tallahassee. All are good,
sensible American folks, and all have
the faculty of working for and
praising their home towns. The con-
test, if there is one, will be decided by
people that live in the middle spaces
between the contestant towns.
We think that, if the legislature
calls for a vote on the amendment, it
should order a special election, put
the names of the candidate towns on
the tickets with one blank line so the
voters could write in the name of any
other town that suited them. If this
election did not give any one town a
majority over all the others, then
there should be another between the
two highest, the result to settle the
matter for good and all.
There is one thing certain, and that
is that Ocala will stoop to no I'M
worthy means to secure the prize.
There will be no ill-temper shown, no
abuse nor slurs for our sister towns
in this paper, at least. We would
advise other candidates to follow the
same policy. We had a capital re-
moval campaign over twenty years
ago. There were several towns in the
race and the campaign was very Bit
ter. The rival towns scandalized and
knitted each other. The result was
that the capital remained at Talla-
hassee, and it will remain there an
other twenty years unless we heed the
lessons of the past.
