JEFFERSON, TEXAS. SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1905.
Mrs. Ambrose Fitzgerald.

Died about 3 O'Clock Sunday
morning, June 4th, Mrs. Ambrose
Fitzgerald(nee Miss Georgia Ware)
In February Mrs. Fitzgerald walk
ed through the melting snow with
out overshoes to a. neighbours
house and sat for some time in a
cold room. She was never well
again. She suffered from a smoth-
ering sensation, when it often
seemed she would die from diff
Guilty of breathing. Two weeks
before her death she came to JEFF.
ferson to the house of her nephew.
DR.. A. A. Terhune, in order to be
under his treatment. DR.. Moseley
was called in as consulting physi-
clan. Medicine failed to relieve
her. An acute pain in the chest
was followed by slight hemor.
hage which ended in death in about
two days. From the first she would
never get we'll. and several times
spoke of where she wanted to be
buried and the clothes she wanted
to be buried in.
Mrs. Fitzgerald was born fifty
eight years ego near Roul, Ca, in
an ideal southern country home,
with its big white house, its bevy
of servants, its garden of flowers,
acres of fruit and abundance of ev.
erything. Mr.. Wares Cher father
hospitality filled his home with
visitors the year round. Mrs. Fitz.
gerald's mother died when she was
three years old. leaving her the
youngest child-the petted darling,
She was educated in the Rome Fe.
male College, since called Shorted
College. She went there at eight
years of and remained until she
sixteen when she went to La
Grange, Ca, where she would
have graduated had she not been
called home on account of her
fathers illness and death. She
then accepted home with her sis
ter, Mrs. Terhune, with whom she
lived until her marriage with Mr..
Fitzgerald in 1898.
Mrs. Fitzgerald was jealous
member of the Methodist church.
Hers was one of those ardent ma
lures which threw it's whole soul
into ever word and deed. She had
two ruling passions. love of char.
ity and love of children. She never
gave from sense of duty but be-
cause she enjoyed giving, and was
not happy until she had made
some one else share whatever she
had. She gave not only material
things but time and sympathy.
Wenever there was sickness there
she was found day after day, night
after night. Her sympathy was
the confluence of young and old,
who went to her with their troub-
les. All children loved her be-
cause she loved them so that she
knew just how to charm them. She
leaves two brothers and large
number OF nephews and nleces and
her devoted heart broken husband
who all mourn her loss.
Also in her home was Mr.. Fitz-
gerald's grandson, Mr.. Levy Fitz-
gerald, with his young wife, and
she was much attached to both OF
them, and never tired speaking
kindly of Levy and his kind atten.
tions to her at all times of day or
night.
She died in the old Terhune
home where so many years of her
life had been spent and was buried
at the head of her SISTERS grave
where she had expressed wish to
be placed just before she died.

take for example the man whom the
Tribune holds up as a shining exam
pie of public-spiritedness, progress and
loyalty in this respect, Mr.. Ezra
Thompson. Mr.. Thompson owns more
property on Main street which can be
classed as unimproved than any other
individual in the city, yet what is he
doing to improve the backwoods APP
pearance of Main street, or to show
that he in any manner "deplores the
making of Main street values 50 high?"
We fail to see wherein the election
of Ezra Thompson to the mayoralty
of the city will improve 'the realty
situation" or how he proposes to use
the position of Mayor to compel other
people to sell their property. Possibly
he intends to appoint a building in
spector and instruct him to condemn
all of the old rickety shacks on Main
street and order them torn down. That
of course would be a good scheme, but
where would Ez get off? However, all
this talk about what Mr.. Thompson
would do if elected Mayor is merely
rot; he is training with the wrong
crowd to have his promises taken Sc
riously. He will not be elected.

AMERICAN "kNOW
NOTHING" PARTY.

There is considerable degree of
similarity noticeable in the "Ameri-
can" party of Utah today, when COM
pared with it's predecessor, the Amer
lean or know Nothing" party, organ
lied in 1853. Quoting from Rufus
Blanchard's Rise and Fall of Politi-
cal Parties: Instead of three polti-
cal parties, as in the last administra-
ton, there were four-the fourth being
the American party, sometimes desig-
mated as Know Nothings.' They rep
resented policy hitherto not consid-
cred by any other party, the funda-
mental principle of which was rellg-
ious resolution to purge the govern
ment from Roman Catholic influence,
on the ground that it had allied itself
with the Democratic party, and by vir-
tue of this alliance. all of our large
cities are Differed by Irish Catholics"
Pending the transitory state of pol
itics which prevailed during the next
few years of slavery and anti-slavery
agitation, the Americans elected a few
members to the House, and some OF
these ambitious politicians began to
spread their sails to the breezes under
the impression that they were to rise
above all other parties"
Free soil and a policy by which
slavery could at least be subordinated
to a wholesome restraint, was de-
manded by the North, and to bring
such a Statutory measure into practical
working order, all parties except the
extreme strict-construction Democrats
and the Americans, united under the
80 Etyna with 70
united strength of all of these, the
contest was doubtful, for the South
was unanimous and it was morally GER
tain that some of the Northern States
were not yet ready to take the fatal
STEP which might involve a civil war
In this emergency, the Know Nothing
party, under the hopeful incentive that
their issue would neutralize the main
one, or bridge over the 'evanescent'
wave of excitement, assembled in
Philadelphia in convention, February
%, 1856, to nominate candidates for
president and vice-president. Proba-
bly, no large body of men have ever
before or since been congregated with
such versatile lights and shades, in q
political sense. There were friends o
slavery in the convention, who put
their shoulders to the wheel, to give
the new political faith a momentum
under the impression that it would d.
vide the Republican strength"
The points of similarity in the two
American parties are very plain. Their
designation as know Nothings," their
resolution to purge" the government
of church influence, though instead OF
being a fundamental principle, as in
the case of the original party, this is
only an insignificant side issue with
out American" party; spreading their

This is a pretty good showing for
Chief Lynch, great testimonial to
his executive ability and faithfulness.
It shows net expense of the depart
ment in 1894 to be $3S,S5G.62 and in
1904 under Chief Lynch only SILL
355.72, a net saving of $27,500.9O in
one year. That's something great 1t,
however, does not included $3.50 which
should be credited to the police de-
partment by the fire department, and
several thousand dollars which should
be credited to the police department
by the street department for work
done on the sire cts by the city Jail
prisoners on the chain gang.
These items even further reduce the
cost of maintenance. -...
In 1894 there were 43 men on the
force all told and during that year
1852 arrests were made. In 1904 the
total force was 4S men and the arrests
numbered 1901.
A chief who can make such show
ing would be a pretty good mon to
have at the head of the municipality.
Drones, loafers or grafters will have
no show when Lynch is mayor.
