To the E litor of the iiaime.’.
As secretary of the Ocala conven
tion it gives me great pleasure to an
nounce that iu accordance with the
request of the committee to whom
was intrusted the preparation of au
address to the glowers, several lueul
unions Pave notified me of their or
ganization.
1 atle ided an enthusiastic meeting
at Lake Weir ou Friday last, when
liicy added man rially to their number.
These good people have again made
the record tor pr nipt action, aud
nave the honor of being the first ua*
mu to report to me. * e had a very
enthusias ic meeting hereon Saturday
last, ami thus tar have ihe Ban NEB
organization as far as numbers go, tvs
we have a list of ninety-three, and
more l> hear from, hive have already
reported wiiu an aggregate member
inp of 20-1, and three more have “e.e
, |.ind their iutenuons.” 1 think it
-ivetosav that LV Saturday, March
iOili, we will have ten or more, and
can al ouco proceed lo the organiza
tion of a slate union.
It is a matter of surprise to me that
every locality docs not see and appre
ciate the benefits to be dertveil Hum
uie formation of a local union, .is that
is the ouly way iu which they cau se
cure representation at lUe state con
vention. Mr. F. C. Butlum, with
couimeiul tOle zeal has iuticu llie
trouble to investigate at Jacksonville
what o u be done for Ihe growers in
the way of saving them money on
cost of materials alone, aud the result
is surprising, ilis investigations were
also exieuded to transportation, afid
lie learned many interesting things,
allot' which, moreihau ever, convinces
him of the benefits to be derived from
organization, even the transportation
comp mies eucourage It and siy to us
virtually that when we organize, con
ed!.rale our shipments aud give it to
theiuus one m m would, lin n, and
then ouly, cau they or will they con
cede what we ask. Let me urge it
u|m>ii every orange growing or vegeta

THE PAPER OF THE PEOPLE.
OCALA, FLA., FBI DAY, MARCH 9, 1M)1
A BIG PHOSFHATE IINJ. j
South Caroiiuiaus and Tenreseean? Get
in on the Ground Floor.
Phosphate is a common find in j
many counties of Florida, notably in
Marion aud Citrus, even in the beds j
of sttearns, but why, it w*as left lo \
Bouth C irolinians and Tennessee pen- i
pie anti not home folks lo make Ihe
discovery that the bottom .of Tsala
Apopka lake, at Inverness, in Citrus
county, was a splib bed of phoppha*e, I
twenty miles iu exteut and averaging
93 per cent, is one of those th.ugs past;
finding out uud all the same the great
discovery is made and iu connection ;
with securing mining privileges from
the state and securing a $3 ,tt‘K) option :
on the Ofauge Cuud & Transit Co’s
canal and lands. This canal is dug j
from Pauasoffkee lake to Floral City I
and with a little more dredging it can j
be extended t- i’sala Apopka lake.
> v this canal the miners can reach ;
half a dozen pours ou t e aae j
touched by the Bouth Florida H. It.,
or create a competing point via the
F.A P. line.
Parties who kindly furnished the
Binner reporter this item of news,
says the Coosaw Phosphate Company,
of Charhstou, stand ready to suppF
half a dozen dredges to do the work
needed iu m.kittg water transporta
tion to thisaipious bed of iuexhausta
hie phosphate.
Another report afloit is to the effect
that the owneis of the Orange Canal
& Transit t’o., consisting of Bheriff J.
C. Priest, Win. Brooks, K. H. Baker
and I)r. U. L. Davis, of Inverness and
Flora I City, Senator A. 8. Maun, of
Jacksonville, and Dr. It. H. Snowden
and C. M. Brown, >f Ocala, were
caught napping ill this phosphate
find and < euy that they gave au op
tion ou the property named.
Those in tlie phosphate business say
that tiie cost of mining the hard rock
phosphate in Ihe lake will lie nominal
and return a big profit lo the miners, j
The find has caused a great sensation ,
iu the phosphate world.
The ‘‘cake walk” by the Ocala
House Glee Club Tuesday night drew
many to the dining room of that
place to witness same.
