It will certainly pay you investigate this proposition: ,jtig@l Loan & ‘Trust Co.i Tis: RS - Judge H. Cook and Hon. Jno. A. Cromartie returned home o few.days ago from their tour of sxpecting jails. . They visited {Do.uglas, Mcßae, Lyons, Fitzager ald, Tiiton and Cordele, and say that they nevir were bettor ;ta}'emed any where,before in their lives, then they were en this trip. Judge Cook says that they never visited o single place, that they didn’t see scme one who was intimately acquainted with My Cromartie, and that he (Judge Cook) felt likke it was through his (My, Cromartie’s) popularity that he was treated sonicely. They boith bring back nothing but woids of praise for the people in dthe‘ different towns they visi ted. - But, we think that they weve more favorably impressed with the beauty, growth and hespital ity of ‘Cordele then zny other town they visited. At least we noticed, that while speaking of the hospitality ex tended them by the other towns visited, they dwell longer in talk ing about Cordele. And, 2gain, after inspecting the jails in- the other county seats and getting wll the information possible, they selecgf?d the Cordele jail as there model for Jeff Davis county. They speat g day and night in Cordele, and inspected this structure thoroughly, and secul. ed all the information possible as to what the cost will {:e‘ o build a jail like it. Judge Cook says that by My, Cromartie and him’ self taking this tour of inspec tion, that Jeff Davis county will save, at least, the architect fees, ‘which is jive per cent, 'we be lieve. b They state that the Cordele L jail will hold over fifty prisoners, Besides there is the greatest pler:ty of room on the first floor for the Sheriff and his family to live in. : We think that it was a very wise move on the jail committee to send these two gentiemen on !this tour of inspection, and think ‘their trip will ~save Jeff ‘Davis county several hundred dollars in the erection of their new jail. ' The City Electicn. Last Tuesday was voting day in Hazleharst. A Mayor, a full hoard of Alderizen and two mem bers of the Beard of {ducation were elected. Every member of the old Board of Aldermen were re electy ed, except Mr. O. W. Clark, and Mr.J. W. Jarvis was elected in staad of him. Mr. Clark wasn’t in town on the day of the election and it was rumored that lie did not want to be elected council men-agan, as he desired to bid on the building of the school house, and if elected a council men, he couldn’t do this. | Those who were defeated weve allgood men, and probably would have managed the atfairs of our fast growing little city equally as well as those who were "elec ted, yet, the voters seemed to have thought otherwise. Messes. F. M. Haynes and A. B. Hursey were elected to serve on the Board of Education. The marshal. city clerk and treasurer will he elected by the city council. There were only 97 votes polled during the day. Mayor Bennett had no opppsi tion, and his name headed every ticket. i £ AT ST APR SSR TSRS %LN In the matter of E.
