HENRY SPOKE HARSHLY

New York, Oct. 1O.-New Yorkers
who heard Gov. Henry ]. Allen of
Kansas, and William Allen White, of
Henry and Me" fame, praise each
other publicly were not prepared for
the balance of the remarks.
''You don't give a damn. You stand
for fellows in politics here that we
out in Kansas would throw out by the
scruff of the neck and the slack of the
breeches. If it is a strike, you let
'em strike. Out in Kansas we have
ninety per cent American stock; We
ere full of pep and vinegar and we
do things. Out in Kansas we have al
ways been able to reach out and pick
a good strong governor when we
needed one"

RAISING LEVEL OF
OkLAWAHA RIVER
Commences Soon, According to Mes
sage Received by the Cham
Der of Commerce

The Chamber of Commerce has re-
ceived from Lieut.-Col. Gilbert E.
Youngberg, in charge of the United
States engineer office, Jacksonville,
details of the lock and dam to be
built across the Oklawaha river at
Moss Bluff. Funds are now available,
according to Col. Youngberg, for pro-
ceeding with construction. The pro-
posed plan will make the elevation of
water at the dam about the same as
the low water elevation of Lake Grif-
fin and the navigable channel that will
be available on the completion of the
lock and dam will have a low water
depth of about three feet and a width
of at least thirty feet. At flood
stages there will be considerable in
crease in the depth of the water and
the width of the channel. The i'm
provements to be made will provide a
navigable channel of about three feet
of all stages of water from Moss Bluff
to Leesburg. No changes will be made
in the present navigable depth be-
tween Moss Bluff and Silver Springs
run except so far as the level water
in Lake Griffin may be controlled to
q small extent and the flood waters
retained so that a more even dis
charge of the river will be available
This will contribute to navigation be,
tween Moss Bluff and Silver Springs
run. The present low water depth
between Moss Bluff and Silver Springs
run is about three feet. The proposed
structure, according to Col. Young
berg, is designed so that it will be ir
harmony with the increase in depth
and width of the channel between Sill
yer Springs run and Lake Griffin. The
lock is not designed for any changes
but will provide for a channel six feet
deep should that be determined upon
later. Col. Youngberg says that it i:
hoped that the proposed lock and dan
can be completed with the funds tha
are now available with such additional
funds as the chief of engineers may
provide,

1T WILL NEVER

Washington, Oct. 10.-Cancellation

can, Illinois; Spencer, republican, Mis-
souri,, and Harris, democrat, Georgia,

extensive tour of Europe, where they
were American delegates to the inter-
parliamentary peace union. All three
agreed, on their arrival here, that
there was much suffering and econom-
ic distress in Europe, but that the
American government should make
nc more loans there. They united in
predictions that Germany would work

FIRST FARMERS
CITRUS FRUIT CLUB
In the State of Florida Will Probably
Be the Marion County
Organization

Marion county will have what will
probably be the first farmers citrus
fruit club in Florida. For the pur-
pose of promoting the planting of cit
rus fruits throughout the county and
in particular on the farms of Marion,
in combination with diversified farm
ing, the Munroe & Chambliss National
Bank, with the cooperation of X. C.
Moore, county agricultural agent, will
organize a farmers citrus fruit club.
The bank will loan money at six per
cent to the members of the club for
the purpose of purchasing the trees
necessary for setting out two-acre
groves. The county agent will have
charge of organizing the club and will
cooperate with the farmers in de-
veloping the groves. Records of each
grove will be kept so that the results
obtained will be available for those
who are interested in the citrus indus
try of this county. Details of the club
are being worked out by Mr.. Moore.
An effort will be made to get as
many as possible of the two-acre
groves set out this fall. The farmers
will have the privilege of planting the
variety of fruit which they prefer.
Citrus fruit is the largest single and
most important crop in Marion county
and it is for this reason that the Mum
roe & Chambliss National Bank is
promoting the club.

late Senator Thomas E. Watson, ac-
cording to the predictions of relatives
and friends of the Watson family.
The will of the late senator has
been filed for probate and will be pro-

TEMPERATURE TOPPLED
BASEBAWL

Oxford, Oct. 9.-"Bleve" If we lived
in Ocala we would take issue with you
for calling Ocala a Stacker town be-
cause they don't fall to that subscrip-
tion list and help pay for the news of
the World Series of ball, just for fun
and pass time in nothing else. That
word Stacker" when applied to one
who would evade the draft, was a
word to be dreaded as something
simply awful. Of course, it is not so
terrible when applied to one who does
not wish to pay for the expense Of
the baseball news, but it carries with
it a certain amount of reproach, CEN
sure, rebuke, etc. And, how in the
world are we going to keep the news
from reaching other people, when we
have to roll the ball off of the end of
our tongue before we can talk of
other things Of interest, unless we
had it all canned and let the sports
who have spent money pay for it at
so much per?
Let US admit that baseball is the
best and sportiest game there is, and
that we are spending almost unnum-
bered millions on the game, and admit
that a good ball player gets more
than United States senator, and say
all the other good things possible,
that does not indicate that we are
spending our money judiciously. Base
ball playing never has produced one
loaf of bread-we say produced" I"
even If thousands are making their
living that way.
Taking a broad view Of it, it looks
as If we are living in an age Of base
ball craze. let it be right or wrong.
IL we mistake not, we think, Judging
from experience and observation, that
the price of baseball news is some
thing like we used to hear about
whisky-it comes ahead of most all
other bills.
From observation and experience,
we believe that many people will
borrow money for game of ball
when they cannot, or say they cannot,
, pay their grocery bill, doctor bill,
, drug bill, laundry bin, barber bill,
rent bill, interest bill, gas bill, ferti-
: lizer bill. newspaper bill, church bill,
and some, not even the funeral bill
Now, if these are true, and we know
. some are, it's an injustice to those who
are footing the unpaid bills, who have
to pay theirs or bust.

"slacker" on those who spend then
money on unnecessary sports or Life

GREEKS WILL NOT
GIVE UP THRACE
Lining Up a Strong Force to Meet
The Attacks of The Turks

Adrianople, Oct. 1O.-(By the AS
sociated Press) Anastasios
Leonardopoulis, new Greek command
er in eastern Thrace, was greeted by
the populace and soldiery as "the
liberator of Adrianople," upon his ar
rival here yesterday.
The title "Liberator" arises from
the fact that he was the first Greek
to enter Adrianople after the Bull
garians and Turks were driven from
the city in 1918. He now has return
ed to the midst of the extensive pre-
parations being made to resist the
Turkish reoccupation.
Although General Leonardopoulis
today is one of the foremost military
leaders in Greece, he travelled from
Athens in an ordinary railway coach.
In spite of his effort to avoid atten-
tion, however, he found delegations
awaiting him at virtually every sta
tion along the route across Thrace. At
this moment it is evident the army
has little intention of evacuatlng
Thrace without a struggle, whatever
the orders from Athens may be and
there is no doubt that many of the
officers are looking back for inspira-
ton to the examples of Gabrielle DAN
nunzio at Fiume and General Zellgou-
ski, at Wilma. Events march swiftly
in an atmosphere of turmoil, such as
exists throughout Greece today and
anything is possible.
Immediately after General Leon
ardopoulis had passed through the
cheering columns of troops in the Rue
Karagatch to the new headquarters IL
the government palaces, he received
the Associated Press correspondent
with whom he freely discussed the sit
uation.
In reply to the question whether
Thrace was going to fight, he said
speaking in French: eve are pre-
pared. The whole army asks nothing
better than the opportunity. We shall
not surrender Thrace. Anyone VIII
saw the soldiers along the Rue Kara
gach today knows instinctively tina
my words reflect absolutely the spiri
of the troops.
"We are one in an infexible deter
mination to keep intact the neV
Greece. No difference of opinion re
fleets on this determination. Th
Turks think we are beaten, but le
them try to prove it on the soil O
Thrace.

Hall and Mrs. Mills and was held by

with show of confidence upon Hayes

ton with their case today. One inves-
tigator said another lead was being
worked upon which if verified would

case.
