Some time ago the Florida East
Coast Railway installed oil burning
engines on its line from Jacksonville
to Key West, and Dragged on the
money it saved by doing so. Now it's
agents are at Tallahassee, lobbying
against Charlie Hunters oil bill,
which, if it becomes law, will only
slightly increase the railroads ex-
penses, but will tighten a little the
burden on the shoulders of many poor
people. Heaven knows the Flagler
railroad has had indulgence enough
from the state of Florida. 1t was
given hundreds of thousands of acres
of land to build it's line, and for years
was allowed to charge cent mile
more passenger fare than any other
railroad in the state. 1t hauls mo e
rich people per mile than any other
road in the South, and charges them
all they will pay. 1t is the most I'M
popular road in Florida, for having
no competing line it takes full advan-
tage of it's position. The legislature
should hand it the same treatment it
hands the people.

When it comes to optimism, well
grounded, aggressive, constructive,
irrepressible and on the job three
hundred and sixty-fve and a quarter
days each year, commend us to w. A.
McRae, state commissioner of agr1-
culture. He loves and believes in
Florida. His job is to help Florida
and hold it up to the admiration of
the public. This task he performs in
way that has added immensely to
the prestige of Florida and the wealth
of its agricultural population. An ag-
ricultural "year book" or Quarterly
bulletin is usually the last word in
monotony and the commonplace. But
not so in the hands of Mr.. McRae. He
begins the latest issue of his "Quar-
terly" with a prose poem on Florida,
under the head of Optimism and the
Future" which is so fine and well
written, and says so much in a few
words, that we should like for every
reader of the Telegram to study it
Lakeland Telegram.
Will is slick politician. He gets
his stuff before the people at the ex-
pense of the state and the newspapers
that are gullible enough to fall for it.
The reports of some of our cabinet
officers are entirely too much diluted
with the political propaganda of their
authors.

The forest supervisor, Mr.. Bishop,
of Pensacola, kindly furnished the
Associated Press correspondent at
Ocala with report of the fire in the
forest reserve near this city. In this
report, he said the fire was the result
of a conspiracy. The Tampa Tribune,
which we are pretty sure didn't know
there was a national forest up this
way, and which we are certain doesn't
know the people who live around it, at
once tries to couple the range men
with the conspiracy. 1t has no au-
thority to do so. Mr.. Bishop did not
speak@of the range men, either in his
statement or in conversation with the
correspondent He distinctly thanked
the local settlers for their help in
fighting the fire. The people whl
live around the forest are mostly in
favor of the open range. They art

The Palatka capital removers have
printed a large and handsome map,
showing Palatka's excellent position
in regard to the rest of the state.
While the map, as aforesaid, is large
and handsome, we can't vouch for its
accuracy. For instance, one of the
most important railroad lines in the
state is left completely off. That is
the Seaboard Air Line, running. from
Jacksonville, thru Ocala to Tampa,
and with branch to Gainesville and
another to Orlando. Ocala has no
kick on this map, forseverybody knows
where Ocala is, but won't the Sea-
beard people be sore at the way the
heart is cut out of their system in the
state.

We wonder where some people have
obtained the idea that the Star advo-
Gates paving the streets Of Ocala with
brick The proposition TO bond for
brick paving came before the people
about eight years ago, at which time
the Star opposed it and it was de-
feated. 1t has not been up since, and
the Star has never advised such paw
ing, knowing the city wasn't able to
pay for it. The other day, in referring
to Alderman Thomas statement that
regular brick paving would cost $3.50
yard, which we daresay is true, as a
good clay brick costs as much as a
gold brick. and is intrinsically more
valuable, we mentioned the Tampa
paving brick, specially designed for
paving, which costs at most sos d
yard. But we did not advise paving
with this brick; in fact, in the same
or the next sentence we said it was
too expensive. We thought we were
giving our county good boost when
we said that all the ingredients OF
said brick except the asphalt were
right here-and they are. Now comes
a friend whose opinion we value mucn
and says we gave the people the i'm
preston that mandatory of said
BRICK could be set up here. We hope
our friends will take notice that We
have not for some time tried to put
anybody under the impression that
any kind of a mandatory could be
put up in Ocala.

We have looked over Representative
Hunters oil bill, and think that from
the standpoint of the great mass OF
the people it is a good measure. 1t
brings howl from the oil companies,
of course, but if they were paying
only one mill on the dollar for all
their property, and a proposition was
made to tax them a mill and a half,
they would bawl like spanked babies.
They will of course pass the added ex-
pense to wholesale buyers of oil, and
they to those who buy it by retail,
and some of these last will squall also.
Really, we do not think men who use
oil should complain. They are mostly
auto owners and we have heard auto
owners say so many times that they
were willing to pay ever so mucn
more money for better roads, and this
tax is designed for the roads, that we
don't see how they can consistently
kick on it. One think certain, a great
deal of money is going to have to be
raised, and if a part of it isn't raised
that way it will have to be raised some
other way.
