- 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.
