Washington, Nov. 8. More than
350 alleged radicals, said to have
plotted demonstrations throughout
the country today in commemoration
of the second anniversary of the es-
men, and bonuses for totally disabled

loans, properly secured, to ex-service

taken at Thursday night's meeting.
The post is of the opinion that the
general digging into the treasury that
is now going on should cease, in order
that the already heavy debt of the
country might not be increased any
more than is absolutely necessary.
The post by the position taken wished
also to emphasize the fact that the
men who served during the war did
so for reasons of patriotism and 100
ptr cent. Americanism. Various
bonuses have been awarded to civil civilians
ians civilians getting employees in war work,
and it would seem that there should
be some reward for the men who were
in the army, navy and marine corps,
but the Marion county post is of the
opinion that there should be some
limit to this kind of thing.
At its, meeting Thursday night, the
post unanimously elected Miss Mary
Cv Marshall of the Marion County
Hospital a member of the legion, and
voted to present her with a member membership.

ANDERSON'S ANSWERS
TO THE BONITO BOYS
We are rather curious to see how
that strike in Miami will turn out. If
the merchants, professional men and
others not affiliated with, .the unions
would shut up shop and refuse to have
anything to do with the strikers, the
strike would end in about twor days.
Why shouldn't they? The strikers are
striving to win their fight by causing
the public inconvenience and even
suffering.
Says the Winter Haven Chief: ".We
never expect to be president so there
can be no chance for a little bluff be being
ing being called, but by criminy, if we had
the job for a month the first thing we
would do would be to order troops and
throw a line around, those.: striking
bums at little Old "Newyork" with the
declaration that they would handle
freight or go without their grub. Old
Doc Tanner fasted forty days, but
take it from us, i these ginks would
work in half that time. This letting
food rot while people need it to eat is
a proposition that needs vigorous
measures.
Again we see that senseless chatter
about editors doing favors to their
friends going the rounds of the press.
That gag is about fifty years old, and
breaks out about every six years. Of
course, editors do favors to their
friends why shouldn't they? Isn't it
bad taste for a gentleman to, remind
other people that he has done them u
favor? And don't other people do fav favors
ors favors to editors? Of course, they do
They do 'em to us, anyhow. We are
tickled half to death when we can do
a friend a favor, and we'd feel mean
enough to spit on ourself if we ever
reminded him of it.

Exposition Commission has certainly
made a mess of the whole thing by

Editor Star: I have been requested
to reply to certain questions printed
n the last issue, of your paper in re regard
gard regard to my position upon certain
matters relative to the city govern
ment.
The first question is: "Are you in
favor of carrying out the city man
ager charter in spirit and in fact?
In 'reply to this question, I wish firs
to make it plain that a mayor is an
executive officer, not in any sense
legislative officer. As such executive
it is his duty to enforce the spirit and
letter : of all existing laws, and it is
beyond his power to make or alter any
one of them. Of course, if elected.
shall unhesitatingly enforce all sta
tutes, general and special, applicable
to the city and every ordinance now
in force, or which may be hereafter
passed by the council. .This naturally
includes the charter referred to as
the city manager charter. However,
the present mayor, who may be term termed,
ed, termed, in a sense, the father of this
charter, has found its enforcement
extremely difficult by reason of oppo opposition
sition opposition in the council, and it appears
that certain provisions of that char charter
ter charter are not acceptable to the public.
In view of these facts, and since the
people of Ocala were not consulted in
regard to the passage of this charter
in the first instance, it is my intention,
if elected, to request the council to de
termine by referring the matter to
the voters of the city what the will
ter, and my actions and those of the
er, and my ctions and those of the
council, I trust, will be governed accordingly.
The second question is as follows:
Are you in favor of improvement
and extending the city light and wa
ter plant, and bonding the city for
this purpose?"
.In the electric light and water
plant, the city has its largest invest
ment, and this investment I shall, if
elected, do everything in my power
to protect ana put upon a paying
basis Certainly, it needs both im
provement ana extension, ana l am
very much in favor of increasing the
city's investment in that plant by
i
Dorrowing money upon bonds, or
otherwise, in order to put this plant
in condition to be operated economic
ally, to .bring a revenue to the city,
and to meet all demands for light and
power.
The third question, as follows: "Are
you in favor of strict enforcement of
the prohibition law and ordinances
affecting the moral condition of the
city V I have already answered in
answering the first question. I shal
certainly enforce strictly every ordi
nance which the council has passed or
may see fit to pass and all laws of
the state or federal government ap
plicable to this city.

Though the whole world seems excited, with the rush and hustle great,
And my troubles hang over me while I sit and watch and wait;
Yet there 're other things that claim me, and no twings of conscience calls,
At the duties I'm neglecting, while the twilight round me falls;
For I'm dreaming of the old times, with their scenes so pure and rare,
Where the gulf breeze sweeps the brown rocks, by the grouper hole out there,
Where the lighthouse winks and flashes, and the car mires to the hub
On the place called Vassey Island at the old Bonito Club!
I can see the boys now gathering at the call of Steward Weik
'Come and get it on the table!" every one is on the hike;
I can almost hear the rattle of the ivory poker chips,
And the shuffle of the cardboards, as the deck he slowly strips;
And I catch the faint aroma of the steward's faithful pipe,
That recalls a field of cabbage, which are slightly overripe!
And I hear the merry jesting, as the table's cleared away,
For the evening social session at Bonito, on the bay!
And I wish I too, was with you, where the mind could be at ease;
I would love to hear Tuck swearing and old Johnny Spencer sneeze;
I would love to hear old Porty give discourse on auto tires,
And to tell how all the dealers were a set of thieves and liars;
Yet somehow he'd always make them bow and yield to his demands,
Paying for each tire he blew out, e'en though worn from rocks and sands;
I would like to hear him tell Hodge, just to leave the work to him,
And he'd make those crooks and scoundrels put a new tire on each rim!
Then there's Bennett, truthful Eddie (the remembrance makes me cough),
That big fish he almost landed, but which from his hook got off;
I would love to hear him tell it; though its old, its always new,
For each time he tells the story that same fish has grown by two;
Then there's Thomas dear old Jimmy; he has always got the best;
And each time he's been out with us, he has always beat the rest;
Though the yarns he tells are silly some of them are rather stale
Y'et the prize he always captures for the latest smutty tale!
And there's Bobby Carroll, also; he that shines in every bout;
I would like to hear him saying, "John, let's keep these pikers out!"
Then I'd love to see the whole bunch grow pale as Holland gin,
As Bob checked before his time came, lean across and pull them in!
Then, there's Clark who sells the groceries; he's the one that's hard to beat;
And if I had time a plenty, I would love to watch him eat;
But the time is passing quickly, and there's others still in store;
I would like to hear Whit Palmer and old Frank H. Logan snore!
, There are many other fellows, but I have not now the time
That's required to write a story, less to put it into rhyme!
For each one of you my fellows, in my thoughts are with me still,
For there's naught can bury troubles like a trip to Vassey will;
Yet I have one further longing that is all that's left to me
I would like to give my lecture, on the broad and open sea;
I would love to dwell on nature tell of winds, and moon and stars
And the dangers that beset you just beyond the outer bars!
But my dream, I fear, is ended thoughts like these can never last;
Yet the memory of those old days often draw me to the past,
Where life's burdens all were buried at the crossing of the stream,
That leads out to Vassey Island, where the fireflies nightly gleam;
Where the wind is ever blowing, and the tide waves surge and foam,
'Gainst the rocks that skirt the island, where we built our second home!
And I long to be among you, and I'm hoping day by day,
That I soon may see your faces, at Bonito, on the bay!
But time's recompense is fullest, and my boat glides swiftly on,
To the day we all shall gather on the shore at break of dawn!
Though it be a land of hunters, where the dog joins in the chase,
Or of walls of gold and jaspar, and an ever resting place!
Where the angels sing the chorus to the strains of harps of gold,
And the trumpet peals the message that the half has not been told;
Though the many meet together though there be a chosen few
May the ones I meet up yonder, be just half as true as you!

Editor Star: I see from the pub pubic
ic pubic press that a committee is busy
formulating data and information
relative to the proposed bond issue of
$1,500,000 for macadamized roads. I
respectfully suggest that this commit
tee, or some one else acquainted witn
the facts, include in the data being
prepared, information in response to
the following inquiries:
1. Will any part of the funds pro
vided by the state for the construc construction
tion construction of state, or state aid, roads be
applied to the construction and main maintenance
tenance maintenance of such road within the limits
of incorporated cities and towns?
2. Will any part of the funds
raised by the proposed county bond
issue be applied to such construction
and maintenance of highways thru
the limits of incorporated cities and
towns?
3. If no part of the state funds,
and no part of the proceeds of the
bond issue is to be so applied, what
means are contemplated to prevent
skips or breaks in highways passing
through such incorporated cities and
towns?
-Heretofore, when public roads were
built by taxation, one-half of the tax
levied for road purposes on property
within the limits of municipalities
was returned by the county commis commissioners
sioners commissioners to the municipality for use
and aid in keeping up and maintain maintaining
ing maintaining streets, and when paving is re resorted
sorted resorted to the abutting property own owner
er owner on each side is assessed two-thirds
and the remaining' third i3 paid by
the municipality from the revenue
arising from general taxes.
If the contemplated roads passing
through municipalities should not be
of uniform width, construction and
material, I fear that the full benefits
sought to be accomplished may not be
realized. Some of the municipalities,
even with' the aid of the assessment
against abutting property owners,
could not afford the expense incident
to the construction of paved or ma macadamized
cadamized macadamized roads of uniform width
and materials through their limits,
and to many it will appear to be un
just to have the property in munic
ipalities assessed to pay interest and
I rincipal of county bonds for road
purposes, if no part of the proceeds
ci such bonds, and no part of state
fund?, is to be applied to the construe
tion of roads through the municipal
limits.
The assessed valuation of property
within municipal limits for state and
county purpose constitutes a consid
crable part of the total valuations
within the county, and the property
within the limits of municipalities
will therefore contribute correspond
ingly to the tax levies for the pay
ment of interest and principal of the
pioposed bond issue.
This communication is not intended
to be either in favor of or in oppo opposition
sition opposition to bonds, but it simply seeks
to elicit what I conceive to "be im important
portant important information for the voter to
take into consideration in weighing
the benefits on the one side and the
rurdens upon the other.

Even at That Early Ape, What Future
President Had to Say Was
Entertaining.
Theodore Roosevelt's first book, like
many of his fifty-odd later ones, dealt
with natural history, but. unlike his
later works, it was written entirely In
pencil In an old notebook, an exchange
states. Theodore was nine years, old
at the time. The title of the book Is
on the first pace: "Natural History on
Insects. By Theodore Roosevelt. Jr."
Under It., cornea the "preface:" "All
these Insects are native of North
America., Most of the Insects are not
In other books. I will write about ants
firstV.He did, and what he had to
say about them Is decidedly entertain entertaining:
ing: entertaining:
"Ants are divided Into three aortal
for every species. These kinds are
officer, soldier and worker. There are
about one officer to ten soilders and
one soldier to two workers. He tells
about the common black ant and the
brown path ant and various other
kinds of ants ; he tells about spiders
and lady-bugs and fireflies and horned
"beetles'' and dragon flies and "ml
squeto" hawks. "All the insects that -write
about in this book," he adds, "In
habit North America. Now and then
a friend has told me something about
them, but mostly I have gained thsir
habits from ebserf-a-tion.w
The author of "natural history on in insects''
sects'' insects'' added to his volume a note or
a crayfish.- "I need not describe the
form of a crayfish to you." he writes.
"Look at a lobster and you will have
Its form."
Marksville, La. Mrs. Alice Johnson,
of this place, writes: "For one year 1
suffered with an awful misery in my back
and sides. My left side was hurting me
nl! the time. The misery was something
awful.
I could not do anything, not even sleep
at night. It kept me awake most of the
night ... I took different medicines, but
nothing did me any good or relieved me
until I took Cardui ...
I was not able to do any of my work
for one year and I got worse all the time,
was confined to my bed off and on. I got
so bad with my back that when I stooped
down I was not able to straighten up
again ... I decided I would try Cardui J
. By time I had taken the entire bottle
I was feeling pretty good and could
straighten up and my pains were nearly
all gone.
I shall always praise Cardui. 1 con continued
tinued continued taking it until 1 was strong and
well." If you suffer from pains due to
female complaints, Cardui may be just
what you need. Thousands of women
who once suffered in this way now praise :
Cardui for their present good health. j

SLOW GROWTH OF GRAMMAR
Interesting to Note Its Progress Since
the Days of Chaucer and
8haksspeare.
In the days of Chancer there were
undoubtedly differences among writ writers
ers writers which made their grammar and
spelling seem singular to us ; yet crude
though they were, the art of literary
composition was well advanced.
That, however, was net the greatest
age ; it came in the Elizabethan pe period;
riod; period; aad while the literary peculiari peculiarities
ties peculiarities of Shakespeare's style were strong strongly
ly strongly defined. It could net be said in any
sense that they revealed lack of knowl knowledge
edge knowledge in either grammar or spelling,
the standards of that day being suited
to the culture of the time.
And a great advance had beea mtde
over the days of Chaucer. In the days
of Addison. Johnson, Swift, Congreve
and Goldsmith we find a great advance
with more unity in both grammar and
spelling.
The authorized versien of the Bible
in the line of literary workmanship
noted the greatest advance of all and
reached a point which has not been
surpassed If, Indeed, equaled.
There was a certain latitude In spell spelling,
ing, spelling, it Is true, to which we today look
back with Interested curiosity; but
even that was not the result of Igno Ignorance,
rance, Ignorance, but rather of custom, which al allowed
lowed allowed the latitude, and it was in no
seme a literary disfigurement.-Christian
