The CANDIDATES In ALPHABETICAL ORDER

The mammoth subscription drive

past month on the Star will come to
a close as the clock strikes seven on

In all respects this has proven to
be the most successful subscription
drive ever attempted by a newspaper
in this section of the state. From
the opening day the interest has been
intense and the candidates have all
worked with vim and enthusiasm and
as a result the Star now has the
largest subscription list of any paper
in this section Of the state
The finish promises to be exceed
ingly close as each of the candidates
are confident of victory and none of
them will concede defeat. The ma
jority of the people of the county
have picked their favorite candidates
and the indications are that the Star
office will be packed with the candi-
dates and their friends when the
judges make their final decision
The final count will be made i'm
mediately after the contest comes to
a close Saturday evening, and the

TRA|NMEN ACT LIKE
PETTY TYRANTS


1t is evident to all Ocala people who
travel that Seaboard trainmen on this
division are all showing the effect of
mighty poor raisin'." or having
heard that 0cala resented their care
lossness and lack of courtesy have
resolved to punish its people by "rub-
bing it IN"
It is reported to the Star that one
day this week they stopped two of
their trains with the platforms of two
passenger cars right on the Coast
Line track, 30 that the box used to
help passengers alight could not be
put in any level place, and passengers
getting of had to jump clear down to
the ground-rough, uneven ground.
Nc railroad man, unless grossly in
competent or devoid of courtesy for
his passengers, would do such thing.
Last night we are told the south
bound local had two or three Pull
mans, running the rear of the train
far back beyond the water tank. An
Ocala man got of one of the sleepers
right at the water tank. Knowing
where he was and being used to that
sort Of. treatment, he made out very
well, but tourist who was with him,
loaded with golf sticks. and probably
intending to stop few days. must
have had devil Of an opinion Of
Ocala.
Such things happen every day.
There is no excuse for them. We real
ly don't believe the management Of
the railroad approves of them. They
are in the Stars opinion the result of
q spirit Of Indifference to the comfort
ard convenience Of passengers among
the trainmen. added to lack of pride
in their own work.
The Ocala evening star. [volume] (Ocala, Fla.) 1895-1943, 1921-02-10

count of all votes turned In before
the installation of the box and viii
then add the votes in the box to those
taken before and the lady having the
largest number of votes will be award
ed the beautiful STUDEBAKER,
while those running next in order
will receive the other valuable prizes.
Another rule that all candidates
must bear in mind that that no checks
of any kind win be accepted in the
ballot box-nothing but cash or cur
rency being acceptable. Candidates
should have all checks offered them in
payment of subscriptions made to
themselves and cashed before placing
the subscriptions in the ballot box.
BANKERS TO AWARD PRIZES
The three judges appointed to take
charge of the campaign and award
the prizes are:
Mr.. Henry d. Stokes of the Ocala
National Bank.
Mr.. Roger Dodd of the Commercial
Bank.
Mr.. ]. M. Thomas of the Munroe a.
Chambliss National Bank
These are well known gentlemen Of
the city and a fair and impartial
count of the votes is assured. Just
as the clock in the Star Office strikes
seven these gentlemen win take eom-
plete charge of the campaign and as
soon as all votes have been counted
the prizes will be awarded
Care should be taken by each can
didate to observe all closing rules. as
they cannot be changed, and any sub
scriptions turned IN after 2 o'clock,
or If any other rules are violated. No
