Jefferson Foundry and Ma

The establishment above named en-
joys the distinction of being the oldest
mandatory of this fine old town, in
upbuilding and support of which it has
played an important part, and indeed,
if reckoned from the time of its EARLIEST
inception, it is the pioneer machine
shop of the great Lone Star State.
The plant was destroyed by fire in
the early eighties and rebuilt by the
late Green B. Mcdonald and has ever
since been in the hands of his family.
Upon the demise of Mr.. Mcdonald,
pere, in 1899, its management was as
sumed by E. B. and John Mcdonald
and by them jointly managed until two
years ago whea their interests were Sc
gregated, the latter taking the Jefferson
Ice, Light and Power Co., which they
had recently promoted and built and
Mr.. E. B. Mcdonald becoming sole
owner of the shops.
The plant manufactures fire brick,
shingle mill machinery, saw mill ma
chinery, lumber buggies and all kinds
of mill supplies. 1t makes gear wheel
patterns on short notice and keeps in
stock Garfield injectors, jet pumps and

Geo. F. Moseley.

There is no more ardent champion
and earnest advocate of Eastern Texas,
and especially that portion tributary
to the city of Jefferson, than the genial
and capable clerk of the District Court.
Why" said Mr.. Moseley with empha-
sis, compared with many sections of
the South this county is veritable
garden of eden. I know plenty of peo-
pie from my native State-Alabama-
came here without dollar and who
have acquired comfortable compe-
tence and today live in the lap of ap-
proximate luxury. The J1MPLEcUTE is
on the right track. What Eastern
Texas needs is advertising, and your
present plan seems a proper one that
may accomplish prodigiously good re-
suits"
Geo. F. Moseley, was born in Hunts
vile, Ala, Jan. IL, 1858, but educated
in Mississippi, where his parents re-
moved in 1857. The family removed to
farm eight miles east of Jefferson in
January, 1876. and for most of his USE
full years of life he has been an honest
tiller of the soil. For several years
past he has resided in Jefferson and fol-
lowed different mercantile. lines until
May, 1906, when he was elected Clerk o:
the District Court of Marion county.
Mr.. Mosely brought to the Office a
genial manner which is the gentleman
of courtesy. and which coupled with
thorough competency makes him q
most popular and capable incumbent OF
| the Office.

W. F. Jones was born in Marion
county. Ca, April 10, 1841, his parents
removing to Louisiana when he was
five years of age, and three years later
came to within five miles of Jefferson,
where his father purchased large
plantation.
The outbreak of the war between the
States found him in the prime of vigor-
GUS manhood and he promptly enlisted
in the 7th Texas Infantry, serving
through the bitter struggle and particle
pating in many desperately contested
battles and seiges.
At the cessation of hostilities he re.
turned to the home plantation, took q
turn at New Orleans business college
and for Is years thereafter he was
tookkeeper for the g. A. Kelly Foundry
Co., at Kellyville, and served for two
years thereafter in the same capacity
with l. K. Bivens of Atlanta, when he
was elected County Clerk as first stated.
Mr.. Jones' innate affability and .cour-

thorough competence, are the twin
qualities which has won him the enco-

Davis Biggs.

Like his co.laborator in the onerous
and delicate duty of assessing the
county taxes, the gentlemen above
named has long been an incumbent of
the Office of tax assessor, having been
first chosen to the Office in. 1900 and re-
elected at every election since, being
now serving his fourth term.
Mr.. Biggs is native to North Carolina,
and raised in Texas, and for 80 years
past has been resident of Jefferson.
Although but Is years of age at the
opening of the civil war he enlisted in
the fall of 1861 in the Both Tenn, Infan-
fantry, participating in many holly con-
tested battles and campaigns.
He settled at Jefferson in 1868, for
nearly twenty years conducting nurs-
cry business here, and for fifteen years
thereafter wos ngaged in the trading
and dairy business.
AS was first stated he was elected Tax
Assessor and his successive reelection
to the Office attests the painstaking
care with which he has discharged the
duties pertaining thereto.

The great danger of kidney troubles

ache, some of them very severe after a

Whilst it's rich environing lands and
their sturdy yeoman cultivators are
valuable assets and great supports to

the mandatory wheel and the vine
clad cottages of their workmen which
sings a sweeter song than the peans of

And clustering close to the banks of

northern confines of the city, Jefferson
can boast of busy hive of industry
and the greatest mandatory of its
kind in Forth Texas.
Reference is had to the vast plant of
the Clark & Boice Lumber Co.. COM

planer. are the largest, and with it's
splendid brick dry kiln building 50x100
feet in dimension are the most impor-

Ian Appreciation by Frank hcDonald.I
Dual conditions obtain to prevent
the writer of these articles to do
full justice to the splendid re-
sources and bright prospects of
this grand old town. The multi
tudinous advantages of this portion
tof Marion county cannot be pic,
tured in the limitations of space
weekly afforded in this column and
must hence be treated of and in
continuous chapters.
And the JIMPLECUTE is also cir.
cumscribed from any present expo,
sition of the pending movements
looking to and backed by such per-
sons as warrant the surety of en-
tire success, the regeneration of
great iron industry which once be.
fore shed the color of bright pros.
perity oyer the community, lest
the premature disclosure of their
broad guaged and wisdom con.
ceived plans, work to their possible
disadvantage.
And concurrent and conmitant
with these propitious developments
in the industrial field is the almost
assured fact that the Cypress river
will at the next session of Congress
receive the attention she has ever
been worthy of but has been so
long denied. 1t is ironical to think
of the Trinity receiving three quar-
tiers of a million dollars in one
bulk sum. as it did at the last river
and harbor bill, the Sabine was
cared for and private capit al fear
lessly investing in navigation en-
terprises in. this little stream and
that the Cypress whose pellucid
waters once foated more navigable
craft than any other stream in
Texas. should be overlooked. An
expenditure of $4,000 would make
the Cypress navigable for the larg-
est draft vessels from its natural
head at Jefferson clear to its con.
huence with the waters of the Red
river, and whilst the big Drained
men of Jefferson and Marion coun.
ty are bending every effort to sc.
cure this end it vehooves every
citizen to pitch in to the same end.
The city has recently and is now
experiencing a moral wave which
is in touch with the spirit that is
making for greater Jefferson.
The JIMPLEcUTE readers we'll know
that this paper has never been in
tolerant in its leachments, yet il
fully realizes and correctly reads
the handwriting on the wall which
plainly states that no community
in modern moral Texas can hope
to achieve civic greatness without
concomitant private morality and
chastity and hence we welcome the
present and kindred movements

wishes to combine the conditions
which make for material prosper.
