petition to discontinpe service on
Wednesday, Nov. 14th, at 2 o'clock, in

MEETING
TOMORROW
NOON
AFTER-
Chairman Carn of the committee to
oppose suspending operations of the
road, and other officials, received sim--ilar
telegrams. The result will be a
meeting tomorrow afternoon, at
which as many as possible of our citi citizens
zens citizens and those of Palatka, Orange
Springs, Fort McCoy and other places
affected should be present.
The decision of therailroad com commission
mission commission can't be foreshadowed- There
is no doubt that the people in the ter territory
ritory territory affected have a right to demand
that the road be kept running. The
railroad commission,1 however, must
decide matters from a commercial
rather than a judicial standpoint.
There is no doubt that the road has
been losing money, and in case dts
managers can show that they have no
means of making expenses, the com commission
mission commission may find itself obliged- to
grant their request. v
In this case, the proper procedure
will be to take an injunction and car-
j ry the case into the courts If noth
ing else can be done, the road can be
nlaced in the hands of a receiver, who
will keep it running until it is placed
on a paying basis again.
The Star, has taken no part in the
recrimination of either side because it
has friends on both sides, anddoesn't
want to foster ill feelings. We think
good feeling more likely to bring
about an advantageous arrangement.
The people along the line of the. road
have an undoubted right to have it
kept in "operation. Its suspension
would damage, them all and ruin
many. It would hurt Ocala, Palatka
and their counties.
On the other hand, the people who
own the railroad are not responsible
for present conditions. If they are
losing money, nobody sfeould blame
them for wanting to stop the loss.
Anybody else would.
Messrs. Hollinrake and MacDonald
have assured the Star that no orders
have been received to tear up the
road: alsd .that the road has not re
fused any freight, except that of the
Rodman Lumber Company, which
would not load its cars according to
demands made on the road by its con connections.
nections. connections. We see-no reason to doubt
the word of Messrs. Hollinrake and
MacDonald. They have lived in Ocala
a number of years and proven them themselves
selves themselves good citizens and are. as much
entitled to belief as anyone.
Let's all get together on this mat
ter and try to have an amicable and
advantageous agreement.

food and such food as is most abund abundant
ant abundant and at our own door and .least
suited for transportation of long dis-'

of families and as many of those who
feed the public, as can arrange to do
so, at once arrange to procure before
November 21st as large a quantity of
salt, smoked, pickled and otherwise
cured mullet and mullet roe as they
can use.
This constitutes a cheap, palpitaable
and nutritious food. After November
20th it is unlawful for any person in
Florida to receive into their posses
sion any such fish or roe, but he may
keep for his own use or family use a
sufficient quantity for that purpose.
After that time, those having such
fish on hand for sale must dispose of
them within ten days and as no per.
son in Florida can have them they
will go to neighboring states. Flor Flor-idans
idans Flor-idans cannot procure their supplies

terrible headache, backache, and bearing bearing-down
down bearing-down pains, and would just drag and
had no appetite. Then ... it would last
... two weeks, and was so weakening,
x and my health was awful.
My mother bought me a bottlfe of
Cardui, and 1 began to improve after
taking the first bottle, so kept it up till I
took three ... I gained, and was well
and strong, and I owe it all to Cardui.
I am married now and have 3 children
. i Have never, had to have a doctor for
female trouble, and just resort to Cardui
if I need' a tonic. I am glad to testify to
what it has done for me, so as to help
others." .'
If you are nervous or weak, have head headaches,
aches, headaches, backaches, or any of the other

TEMPERANCE IMS
(By the National "Woman's Chris Christian
tian Christian Temperance Union.)
WHY NOT. PROHIBIT WATER?
A letter clipped from one of the J
New York morning papers has been
sent us for publication. The writer
urges that water 'should be prohibited
as It causes the deaths of thousands
of people by engendering typhoid and
other diseases. This reasoning Is typ typical
ical typical of much that emanates 'from the
liquor traffic. Water does not cause
disease. It has never poisoned any
man. It is only when some poison
Ike typhoid pollutes the water that
there' Is danger. The remedy Is to
prohibit or do away with the poison,
not the water. And this, says Tem-
perance, is precIselyNvhat modern san
itary science is trying to do. We no
onger confine our efforts to the sav sav-ng
ng sav-ng of, the victims of typhoid, we seek
to prohibit or destroy the cause. The
ee a. m a i j
euuns vi temperance people 10 uo
away with alcohol as a beverage Is
perfectly logical because alcohol Is a
poisonous drug. If alcohol were as
harmless as water only lunatics would
advocate Its prohibition. :

FROM COL. ROGERS
Editor Star: As I am the authoi
of the famous "whereases" of last
Friday night's mass meeting that
seemed to mash the tail of the Ockla Ockla-waha
waha Ockla-waha Valley railroad, more commonly
known as the "Ocala Nothing," I beg
space to make this explanation. As"
a member of the board of trade I
went to the courthouse meeting Fri Friday
day Friday evening not expecting to say a
word to the public, but my name was
called for and the president of the
board of trade and the meeting called
for me. This was after several
speeches had been made by promi prominent
nent prominent men from Palatka, Bay Lake,
Fort McCoy, Burbank and Ocala. I
suggested as the best remedy for the
injusticeabout to be inflicted on the
people along the line of this railroad
was to appeal to the state railroad
commission. it was publicly stated
by men in that meeting that the said
railroad had been offered over one
hundred carloads of freight for the
benefit of the road and it was refused.
I was again called f or to write the
resolutions and I went" to the front
and wrote them on the secretary's
table and read them and they were
adopted by a unanimous vote of the
large meeting-
The "whereases" seem to touch the
quick in the general manager of the
Ocala Nothing" so called and he
comes out in last Saturday's Star and
slings the falsehood and the lie pro pro-miscously.
miscously. pro-miscously. T would kindly advise him
not to go out along the said Vailroad
and repeat what he has put in print
lest his words rebound and spoil his
mug.
The general manager is a member
of the board of trade and this meet
ing on Friday evening was called by
and for 'the board of trade to help the
citizens of our county along this line,
who will be nearly or quite ruined by
the taking up of this road. Why was
he not there 'if he is so full of truth
and divide up with those liars? No,
his patriotism for the, dear people of
a few years ago who bought land
along his line failed when he and his
road accomplished their purpose with
them."
It has not been so many ,. moons
since this illustrious general manager
was trying to get the people of Ocala
and other towns to take stock in this
honest (?) company to continue the
road to Eustis and on south. A wrote
in those "whereases" exactly what
was stated by honorable men in that
Friday night meeting. I believed they
spoke the truth. I believe it yet.
Very respectfully,
- R. F. Rogers.

IMPERATIVE NEED
FOR THE Y. M. C A.
Letters from Y. M. C. A. war work
secretaries and from soldiers who are
now in France show clearly how badly
the Y. M. C. A. work is needed in the
American camps "over there" ; just
now. The soldiers are arriving -in
France daily. They are being thrown
among strange people whose very
language is Greek to them. The coun
try has been ravaged by cruel war,
German,, war, "for the past three and
one half years. There is nothing for
the men to. do to amuse themselves.
Officers have frequently appealed to
the Y, M. C. A. headquarters in Paris
to do something to save, the men.
Amusements are- wanted. Places
where the men can go and spend their
idle hours are wanted. Recreation is
wanted. The officers see the need of
just such work as the war council of
the Y. M. C. A. has been doing for
some time. This work can only be
continued with the help of the Ameri
can people. The sum of $35,000,000
is to be raised this week to keep th
work going on until July 1, 1918.
iThe work has progressed so far as.
to take in a plan of establishing a
resort in the mountains near Switzer
land where the American soldiers ab
sent on leave can go. All kinds of
winter sports are to be provided foi
this resort.. This will be much better
for the. men than would be a trip to
Paris. In the great French capital all
kinds of temptations await the sol soldier.
dier. soldier. The American soldier is an es especial
pecial especial victim because of the fact that
he always has money and is the best
spender in France today.
The Y. M. C. A., is establishing Red
Triangle huts at all points in and
around the camps and firing lines.
These huts can be found, right up in
the trenches. Here the men art
served hot coffee and tea, they are
furnished with the material to" write
home, they are given books' and pa papers
pers papers to read, they are supplied with
music and games, sports are not for
gotten in the huts back from the firing
lines, and also in these huts religious
services are held at regular .hours and
the soldiers are good church goers.
These are a few of the things for
which the money is "to be raised this
week will be spent. There are also a
number of reasons why the money
asked for this week should, be freely
given. Many of these boys, about
8,000 at the present time, are Florida
boys. They are from our own cities
and towns. They are the men who
were tilling the soil last year. They
are saving the soil this year and
should not be overlooked.
