EPITAPH POETRY.

TIE City of Fitzgerald had a
janitor and mayor,
For reelection he thought his
chances were fair,
But of Drew Paulk alas he die
not beware.
At nine the election begun,
The mayor and janitor made a
very poor run.
At 10 he took the hint;
At II Pau1k had him skint;
And 3 hours hence Casper had
his hide on the fence.
It made him feel sad to loose
his skin,
And he resolved never to run
for mayor agin.
For city clerk the people were
supporting Mr.. Wise,
But the evening before the
election in stepped the man with
the two red eyes,
And, to withdraw he persuade
ed?
Mr.. Wise.
But his friends admonished
Mr.. Wise
Not to heed the advice
Of the man with the red eyes,
But to stay in the race
And they would land did)
elect Mr.. Wise,
The bowling and painting
Of those red eyes not wIdon
standing. +,ar r. 4'.n-

1t was no go
Although
We did the best we could, we

Therefore we could not do
otherwise.

CLEVER JOE RoUNTREE.

Goes out of Office next week, after 4 years
of faithful service.
He, perhaps, has more friends at the close
of his two terms than he had at the beginning,
paradoxical as it may sound. He was simply
victimized last Tuesday by a reform wave that
demanded and was bound to have a change of
administration. Clerk and Treasurer Rountree
has been always kind and accommodating. He
has done many things merely to accomadate
that was not strictly in the line of his duty. Dur
ing his term of Office he has not only made
friends but made some money, and is much
better fixed than before. He will easily
work his way among men, and the Enterprise
wishes him success. Although last Tuesday we
voted against him as often and as hard as we
could, but not harder or as often as we have
voted for him.
The editor of the Enterprise has always
been the friend of the newly elected mayor,
Drew w. Paulk. We strovc hard through the
paper and with personal effort to se-oedu-
election and when we rs'r Everytheinrce his
people we're with US 49,
sured we werA< 4''@eu uesueS 'nAs
Is from tOWp IS and that his election was as
( greatly pleased. We want 10 re-
tain his friendship; but we will not DO so at
sacrifice of duty to the public. Just as certain
as he fails to measure up to the Enterprise stan
dard of duty, just as sure as ne becomes dere
lict to the trust imposed by his election we WILL
true to the interest of the people, say so IN un-
mistakable terms.
This is not written as threat or oid OF
any kind but to put the readers OF the Enter
prise on notice that personal friendship Will not
sand in the way of our duty to the public. we
have great faith in the newly elected mayor out
that fact will not deter us one iota in insisting
on what we believe to be the citys best interest
We. however, do not anticipate any harsh
conflict. We do not believe that the people
who offered objections to him during the beat 81
the campaign sincerely question his ability or
INTEGRITY. We believe he will make model
mavor. record that he will at the end OF his
term look back on with pride and the Enterprise
will review to his credit
We shall see what we shall see.

The CITY council bought yesterday from the
Atlanta Betting s. Supply Co., large pump Tor
the air lift at the water and light plant. Inc
machine is what is known as 12x12xl2 with ca
pactv of 400 gallons per minute at 100 feet hit.
The price agreed on was $1,S25, with all con-
nections. It is the policy of the council to re-
tain the old pump to be used IN case of emergen-
CIV. a breakdown or any accident to the new one.
We are not in a position to explain why they
did not buy the 14x14x14 pump, mentioned in a
recent issue Of the Enterprise as Sl,OOO ma
chine guaranteed to lift 400 gallons of water per
minute but suppose the committee has good
md sufficient reasons No doubt the pump
bought is better than the one offered tor Sozo'oo
less.

Why Grafton DID Not Come.

Victoria, b. c.. Nov ga special
cable from London TO the Times says
that the recent withdrawal of warships
from Esquimalt is a part of radical
change of policy on the part of the
council of defense of the cabinet. 1t is
announced that the Government is con-
sidering plan for the strategical dis
tribution of the imperial forces. SO as
to concentrate the naval and military
strength in a more effective way.
One change viii be the withdrawal of
regular forces at small coaling stations
and the substitution for them of local
defense forces 1t is officially announe-
ed that the Government contemplates
the withdrawal of imperial forces from
Halifax. No decision has been reached
as to Esquimalt. as the fact that the
center of the worlds military and ma
val interest is now on the Pacific may
save the station from reduction. but
the speedy announcement of the Cow
ernment's intention is expected.
