Mr. John T. Badger,a former resident
of this county and a property owner
hero, has recently written to Mr. E. M.
Mallette from Santa. Ana Oais. Mr.
Boyer is nowjonjthe road and 'is'meot-

Urn wants him to go to Africa, but he
thinks that a cracker had better stay
at home.
Mr. Boyer says “I tell you, von all
tou’t advertise half enough. If I had
some booklets of Thomasville I could
turn lots of people to Georgia.” He
writes interestingly of California.
They do not observe dog days out there
as he says it has not rained for 18
months and hundreds of cattle aredyiug
from tliirst. Snow is alv ays in sight
and the nights are cool, but the tern
perature reaches to 102 degrees duringthe
day. The fruit crop is i failure and
many orange groves have been.abandon
ed near San Diego. The population of
she country is doubled in the Whiter
time. Mr. Badger says there are 0000
fiats npw empty in Los Angeles which
will be filled this winter. * He closes by
saying "this is no place for poor people
and Georgia folks had better stay at
home.”
SMALL FIRE
Tenant House on Lower Jackson was
Slightly Damaged
The fire department was called ont at
ten minutes after ten Thusday to re*
spotid to an alarm from lower Jackson
street. The flro was in the roof of a
small tenement house occupied by a
•olored woman named Mary Harvey and
owned by Col. R E. Lester. The dam
age done was slight, and the blaze was
pat oat by the chemical extinguisher
»nd the hose was uot called^nto service.
The department made a good run. They
have the regular fire wagon back again
In good ropa»r, and are ready for any
emergency.
It is an old adage in Thomasville that
(By J. S. Ward, Jr.)
Editor Times-Enterprise:
The free pass question is one that will
not dowh and will be a bone of conten
tion until it is settled right and the
sooner our eolons recognize the fact the
better it will be for ail concerned. 1
presume that my position on this ques
tion has been understood for years, but
we should at all times be able to give a
reason for doctrine that wo advocate.
In opposing the giving of free passes by
the railroads to our public officials, I
Wish it to be ^understood that 1 am no
enemy to the railroad interests of our
country. We need them and no ruling
or legislation should be so antagonistic
as to prevent them from earning e
reasonable profit on^the actual invest
ment, therefore, if the legislator #fc who
enacts or the judge who enforces the
laws should become so oxtromely an
tagonistic as to rule them out of busi
ness instead of being a blessing ^R ould be
a calamity to the country, but in reason
irg upon this object the first idea that
naturally suggests itself is what motive
promotes the railroads to give the public
servants free passes. It can’t be because
those geutlomou have such large busi
ness interests that they contribute so
ueh more in freights than the common
herd for many of them are ‘as poor as
church mice. It must be then that they
expect it to affect the laws in their be
half. Now* the legislature and judge is
as much honor bound to do justice to
the railroad corporations as he is to the
people outside corporations, j. Why? Be
cause the railroads are taxed to pay his
salacy and run the government as well
as the rest of the people. Being* em
ployed by both I10 is^honor bound to bo
just to both. Right here the corpora
tions seek to pnt him under a two-fold
obligation by hauling him^around free
of charge, and the pnblio has no chance
to know whether ho hasjbeou or is in
fluenced by a pass or not. Therefore

Now Mr, Editor there may not be the
evil iu this question that the people
think there is, but we are forced co con
clude there is ground for suspicion. A
good citizen of this county recently said
to me that if he *was a member of the

tendered him, but when it came to vot
ing he would vote just as if he did not
have it. Probably this is true with the
majority of our officials
This communication is certainly not
intondod as a fling at any of our candi

reason to believe that any of thorn has,

When the Kidneys fail to perform their 1 functions properly by not straining out the poison
