The funeral arrangements have not
been completed. Relatives have been
notified and until replies are had the

decided upon.
Jchu or Jade Switzler as nc was
known came to Mesa about year ago
last October with his wife. They in
vested quite extensively in residence
properties all over the CITY which is
bringing in quite a revenue at the
present time.
The deceased was born i'm Missouri
and at the age Of thirteen crossed the
plains locating in oregon where he
| engaged in the raising Of horses which
| he followed until few years ago
when old age incapicated him from
actively engaging in his chosen pro-
! fession. The most important thing
that can be said Of Mr.. Switzler is
not that he was one of the men who
! helped make the west or that his
/ business foresight enabled him To- lay
| up a competency. but that he had one
Of the most cheerful and congcnial

A Tidal Wave.

There never was a time when
crystalized prohibition sentiment
flowed in such great tidal waves
as during the past year. Men
wonder at it. Not so with the
white ribbon women. Some
twenty five years ago we began
our w. G. Il. U. crusade. We
knocked at legislative halls, we
sowed literature knee deep all over
our land. Our talented women
reached thousands of hearers while
they preached the gospel of tenn
perance; we invaded the realm of
schools; we set aside the fermented
wine at the sacremental table re-
placing it with the sweet juice of
the grape-the real fruit of the
vine; we stormed the medical col
legeS aud WaylaId our family phy-
sicians with proofs that alcoholics
were not needed in medical prac-
tice; we began the study of home
making and health culture; but,
back of it all we began with the
little prattler at our knee and fol
owed him all the way up to man
hood with lessons on good citizen
ship and dread and hktred of the
whiskey traffic. Today those
sons of ours voted for the first
time and they cast clean votes. Our
prayers, our example, our "pre-
cept upon precept and line upon
line" are bringing fruitage and
King Alcohol is already tottering
upon his throne. We present to
the world today a new manhood; a
new Ichivalry with our sons as
true knights.

Remains in Fitzgerald.

Saturdays Enterprise carried a
statement of changes in Railroad
circles taken from the Moultrie
Observer, but which one of our
twelve able assistants failed to
credit to that paper.
We are much gratitied to be able
to state that Mr.. Jolly will still
make his home among us. The A.
B. & A. with full appreciation Of
Mr.. Jolley's efficient services, had
rendered him the agency at Moul-
trie where the responsibility would
not be so heavy as in his present
position. He expected to accept
it, but one with less responsibility
having been rendered him as book
keeper in the Cotton Oil mill OF
this city, he has concluded to re
main with us. His many friends
are pleased to know that his in
fuence for good will still be re-
Elected in Fitzgerald. Mr.. Jolley's
health is beginning to break down
and he will take a months vaca-
ton before he goes to work again.
Just as he had decided to do so he
received the sad intelligence OF the
sudden death of his father and has
now gone to the funeral at Cedar
town.

GUS city, and possibly one who has
been in touch with the true in

fails to see the necessity or justice
in changing the name OF. our city.
With the lose of it's name goes it's
personality, it's Identity and we
would feel like the mother who
had lost her first-born. We, prob
ably knew Mr.. Fitzgerald, the
founder of the colony, better than
most people now left in this city,
and we are not prepared to ac-
knowledge him a blackleg. AS a

the plan that opened up this
beautiful country and helped PEG
pie to homes and others to schools

To smoke, Or not To smoke? is a
burning question. A resolution to
stop it in the house produced a great

wanted to smoke. Some thought the

be q tremendous hardship on old
smokers t shut down their smoke

inhibition would embarrass the house
