Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1911-09-07
The Deadest Of All Towns
Is in the State Of Nebraska, and
Has too Many Rich Men.

Towns are not made by rich men.
The men who make the wheels 60
round are the ones who have their
fortune to make. The rich men are
chiefly occupied in taking care OF
their bundles and clipping cupons.
The deadest town in the United
States is in Nebraska. 1t is town
where every natural advantage, in
Guiding water power makes manu-
featuring profitable 1t is surround
ed by the finest farming country in
the world. There isn't an unpro-
ductive acre within fifty miles.
Three is every reason why the town
should grow and prosper, but it has
too many rich men. They own
business blocks and farms and
spend most of their time collecting
rents. They smoke "two-for" cigars
and play checkers for them. They
lend money on good security at the
pawnshop rate of interest. They
protest against every Improvement
that will cost them a cent.
The town in question has two
miles of paved streets, The pave
ment was laid twenty years ago,
and now it is ruinouS. The main
street looks like a brick yard that
been struck by lightning. For three
or four years the more enterprising
citizens have been clamouring to
have that street repaved, the news
papers have been urging it, and the
council has been passing resolutions
favoring it, but the rich old boys
always blocked the game, and it
doesn't seem probable the street
will be repaved until the rich old
boys sleep with their fathers.
The younger men of the town are
always trying to get something start
ed, and always failing, because the
rich men present a solid front in
opposition to anything that will cost
money.
The town that has a surplus of
rich men is in hard luck. Rich
men naturally are conservative"
and conservatism becomes a dis
ease with them in course of time.

ACKNOWLEDGE 1T.

Princeton Has to Bow to the Inevitable
Scores of Citizens Prove It,
After reading the public statement
of this representative citizen of Prince
ton given below, you must come to
this conclusion: A remedy which
cured years ago, which has kept the
kidneys in good health since, can be
relied upon to perform the same work
in other cases. Read this:
William J. Apologize of Princeton,
MIMI, says: II contracted kideny
trouble while in the army and did not
obtain relief until I used Doan's Kid
ney Pills. My back was very weak
and painful and I had to get up sew
eral times at night to pass the kidney
secretions. There was much sediment
in the secretions and they we're high
ly colored. AS soon as I began tax
ing Doan's Kideny Pills, they bene-
flied me and I have since enjoyed
much better health. This public
statement is given as slight token
OF my appreciation for the benefit I
have received" (Statement given in
Novebmer 1907
CONFIRMED PROOF.
Mr.. Apologize was interviewed on
September %, 1910, and he said: 81
do not hesitate one moment in con-
firming my former endorsement OF
Doan's Kidney Pills. I have advised
trial of this remedy to other kidney
sufferers and I know that it has al
ways acted effectively"

What's the Use

Stunts performed by dirigible bal.
looms are interesting spectacularly, but
what's the use? Just now a Ger
man American journalist. Joseph
Brucker, is preparing to make the at.
tempt to fly across the Atlantic ocean,
east to west, under a big gas bag of
the Irish potato pattern, similar to
that which carried Walter Wellman
and his crew several hundred miles
southwark when he tried to negotiate
the air route across the ocean from
west to east. Herr Brucker says he
intends to follow the route traced by
the caravels of Christopher Columbus.
His air craft has motor, but he ex-
poets the trade winds to carry him
across.
Columbus. who voyaged in ships
that plowed the seas, did something
practical. Vessels travelling through
water are useful because they are
measurably safe and they can carry
much freight and many passengers
They are subject to the caprices Of
storms, Of course, but modern inven-
ton and development have reduced
that peril to the minimum. Recog-
nlzed experts in air voyaging maintain
that the bigger the gas bag of the
dirigible the greater the probability
of successful flight. That means fight
when all the air currents are favor
able, when no adverse storm winds in
terfere. But in case Of a storm the
bigger the gas bag the greater the
wreck
Even should Herr Brucker succeed
in performing his proposed sensational
stunt again and again, Of what prac-
teal value would it be to the world?
When one can step aboard a huge
liner, occupy coy. hotel-like apart
ment, with private bath, elevators,
tonsorial parlors and all the other COM
forts OF home on land, who wants to
suspend himself beneath a huge sack
OF hydrogen gas in a frail framework
and float over the sea? Generally
speaking, the generality of mankind
Will continue to use the sea plows in
stead of the skyhooters. Nevertheless
II Brucker comes across with his air
ship it will make a mighty Interesting
newspaper story.

The Railway Mail Clerk.

1t would be interesting, though ap-
palling, if somebody should compile
list Of the railway mail clerks in the
employ Of the United States postof-
fee department who have been killed
on duty. Almost invariably the mail
cars are hitched Immediately behind
the engine. When there is a wreck
we usually find in the list Of dead one
%" more railway mail clerks. These
-. are martyrs to faithful service,
;,.st as are the soldiers and sailors who
die in battle. 1t is probable that in
the long run their risks are even great
err than those taken by soldiers on the
firing line.
For some years the mail clerks have
been endeavoring to induce congress
to increase their pay and ameliorate
the hard conditions under which many
of them work. They are heavily hand
icapped in this endeavor, inasmuch
as the regulations practically forbid
the clerks themselves from making
any organized effort for relief. The
postoftice department considers that
the clerks are fairly we'll paid. Their
salaries range from 5000 to $1,4OO a
year, but only through long service
can any man attain to the higher pay.
They work long hours, travel long
distances, are away from home half
Of the time or more, and even when
at home on their regular layoffs they
are required to put in a great deal OF
time Throwing cards." otherwise IA
miliarizing themselves with additional
postal routes by sections or states,
upon which they must pass rigid ex-
aminations at stated intervals.
Railway mail clerks must be men of
acute intelligence and a considerable
degree Of education. Pluggers and
clodhoppers are altogether ineligible
for this service. The general public
knows little Of the perils and difficult
ties attending the work Of these men.
Of the physical and mental strain
which they must undergo, Of the te-
dious drudgery which they must en-
dure. But if the railway mail clerks
Of the United States should by any
possibility engage in general strike
the public would discover instantly
that they do highly important work.
