Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1902-10-10

If another lot were not sold, in
the next two years there will at
least be 5000 more residences
built, thus increasing the popu-
lation, at the lowest figure to 3d.
900 or 100000.
The C. & N. w. r. r. have al
ready enough faith in the city to
commence the erection Of a $780,
900 passenger depot. This is
splendid road and runs scores of
passenger and freight trains
through here daily. l hope in
the near future Fitzgerald may
be able to say the same thing.
May God grant that the day may
soon come when the saloons and
other damning things will be put
out and you have a clean city.
Some of my friendship came to
me before leaving, and said,
why, are you going to join Dow
lie! he's fraud and a Scoundrel,
why he will have all your proper
ty and money in a short time, and
he will hypnotic you too if you
don't look out - One good bro
Their actually wanted me to send
him my picture when my beard
grew out, and I was adorned in a
long robe, for he said I couldn't
shave there for Dowie wouldn't
let me. Well brother I have
shaved three or four times since
coming, and I didn't ask Dowie
if I could either. By the way we
have two barber shops in Zion
City beautifully equipped. One
of the ministers in Fitzgerald, in
a sermon, a few days before we
came denounced DR.. Dowie and
his followers, in a shrewd way,
and said the people were, or
must be, very weak to come away
off up here, and especially so
near Chicago, the wickedest city
in the world. Well, he didn't
know any better as thousands up
on thousands don't.

A VOICE FROM. ZION.

EDITOR ENTERPRISE:
Before l left Fitzgerald sever
Ell of my friends made me prom
Use to write to them and give some
details in regard to this City. AS
most of them are subscribers to
your paper, [ have adopted this
plan of writing to them. We ar
rived here Thursday morning,
September, 18th, at 1O:45, after
a pleasant journey of two days
and nights. We were wonder
fully astonished to find such a
city like" place, which is, beau
tifully located along the side of
Lake Michigan, AZ miles north of
Chicago, in an old farming coun-
try; almost the $500 acres being
clothed with a carpetof bluegrass
and clover, and beautiful natural
parks interspersed throughout
the City. The soil is as rich as
! any to be found in the state.
There are thousands of new hand
some dwellings, already erected,
and hundreds being built.
The present population of the
city reaches between 1000 and
5000; there are two large hotels
beautifully furnished, where
guests from all nations are regis
tered every day. An elegant two
story brick Lace Factory cover
ing space of about s acres, in
Guiding the two floors; the ma
chlnery is run by electricity fur
nished by the city power-house.
From 200 to 300 men, women and
children are employed, turning
out thousands of yards of lace of
the most exquisit designs, every
week, which is finding ready sale
in all parts of the world. I had
the pleasure of seeing some of the
lace wove and it was certainly a
beautiful sight to behold. A ma
chine is now being installed for
making curtains. The1arge 1aun-
dry employing score or more of
employees is a wonder, every
thing from beginning to end is
run by electricity, furnished also,
by the two-story brick power
house, which also, furnishes light
for the city, etc.
The bakery is another large
establishment, furnishing pure,
clean eatab1es for the entire city.
The confectionery department,
where pure and delicious candies
are to be manufactured, and sold
throughout the world, is located
in the second story of the bakery
until a suitable building can be
erected. The planning mill is an
other large establishment, en-
ploying scores of workmen. Iii
on City also makes it's own brick,
and frst-c1ass ones too. l must
not forget the dairy, for it is re-
ally blessing to have rich, pure
milk and natural yellow butter.
Why, we could hardly get enough
butter and bread to eat at first,
it was so good. Vegetables are
plentiful, and cheap too; large,
fine apples, 60c per bushel; Irish
potatoes, SOC per bushel. The
weather has been good thus far,
excepting rainy spell of two or
three days; of course, when cold
weather comes on, expect we
will wish for some old Georgia
sunshine.
The large department stores
here put me in mind of bee-hives,
everything is on the hum, about
IS persons are employed in the
various departments. The Fresh
Food Supply Department is an
other busy place where every
thing good and clean to eat is
found. This department en-
ploys from twelve to fifteen per-
sons. Mr.. F, F, Bosworth is en-

When [ walked into the Admin
lstration building, a handsome
two story structure, and where
all the affairs of the city are trans
acted, l felt like removing nv
shoes, for everything is as clean
and neat as par1or. The ap-
pearance of everything struck
me most forcibly, for every Of
tice is furnished with a suit of
elegant Office furniture and brus-
sells carpet, Something 1 am
afraid will never be done in Fitz-
gerald, where in most every cor
ner OF the offices and public bull
d1ngs is to be found the filthy

or cigar smoker, thing that will
not be tolerated for a moment in

Heaven! Well, to tell the truth,
| believe if some of us ever ex-
pect to get to Heaven, we have
got to begin here on earth. Why
do people pray the prayer of the
Lords Thy Kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth as it is
in Heaven" if they don't endeav
or to carry it out? This is what
is being carried out here nothing,
more or less than the pure Cos
pei of our Lord Jesus Christ.
What is the religion of Christ
worth to the sinful world unless
it is put into practice day by day?
Never in my life have I heard
such sound bible teaching az I
have since coming here. I believe
as thousands of others do, that
DR.. Dowie is the most powerful
man of God of the world, and is
being used more as a humble
servant of God, in leading the1ost
to the Saviour, Healer, Cleanser
and Keeper.
He takes the bible for just what
it says and teaches according to
scripture that God is the same
yesterday, to-day and forever;"
and with this injunction, where
God rules, man prospers," does
all things in Gods way.
When this city was established
it was understood that God
SHOULD be recognized and obeyed
in all things. Each morning,
every day in the week, in every
department, from ditching to
banking, prayer is offered up to
God for His blessing and guild.
ance throughout the day. This
is not only a form, but reality.
Can any one tell of another city
in the world where this is done?
God grant that the day may
speedily come when all nations
will recognize Him in business
affairs as well as otherwise.
There is a city ordinance against
using tobacco in any form, pro-
family, or the sale or use of intox-
icating liquors. What bless
ing it is not to be confronted
with these damning things every
time one steps out on the street.
AS yet l haven't heard an oath,
nor seen cigar, nor men and lit
tie boys chewing the filthy weed,
and it is certainly a Godsend not
to have to pass saloons, that are
everlastingly belching forth their
POISONOUS fumes.
Now some will say, they must

There is a fine 3 story stone

ward buildings to be built,

TRUST PRICES AT HOME AND ABROAD.

Ex-senator washburn of Minnesota said
recently:
From the best information l have been
able to gather, steel rails can be manu-
featured at about SIG a ton. Sold as they
were two and a half years G at 81 so q
ton, there was a profit of 81 so a ton.
which is more han the profit on flour Of
being sold at s2S a ton, making 1t easy
to understand, with such m pro-
fits, how the steel mills are enabled to
pay dividends on shares three-fourths Of
which are composed of water. And yet,
with his condition of things, we now
have a duty of 81 80 a ton on steel rails
Steel rails are sold abroad, where they
are certainly not protected by a tariff, at
SIT or $1S a ton. Mr.. Schwab told an
Englishman tina his company could de-
liver steel billets in England at SIG so q
ton, but this does not prevent them SELL
ing in the United States at $2e and 81.
The difference between these prices shows
for foreigners-and how it does not

STEWART OPPOSED TO UNION LABOR.

Here is something which we would like
to submit to the careful consideration of
the people of Nevada: In the debate On
the Chinese exclusion bill in the Senate
on April 18th. the day upon which the
Plat amendment was passed, Senator
Stewart expressed the following senti-
ments on the sailor clause."
There appears to be a desire to PAN
der to some false sentiment. l am un-
der no necessity to do it OF this sub
ject. = : / cannot be led away by a
desire to pander to some sailors. When
we have protected labor on land;
when we ave protected labor every
where, as we do protect 1t, we have
to employ foreigners to do our ship
ping. If you pass a law to the con-
trary you destroy it. 1t is a new idea,
a foolish idea, prejudicial to labor,
and / am delighted that the Senator
from Massachusetts CMr. LODGE has
offered an amendment to strike it
from the bill.
And we are delighted to quote the Sena-
tor from Nevada (Mr. Stewart). These
are the Senators last words on the SUBJ
ject and they were followed by a vote to
strike out the "sailor clause" The SEN
ator is on record as being in favor Of
Chinese taking the places of American
sailors on American ships. The last words
Of Nevada remain to be heard.-Coast
Seaman's Journal.
The Journal need not fear as to what
the last words of Nevada will be. This
consummate old fraud stands no more
show of ever again being elected Senator
from this State than he does of ever
again being held in the slightest respect
by any considerable portion of the de-
cent people of the State.

DANGER THREATENS CITY OF
FORT DE FRANCE.

Paris, Sept. 15-The French soien'
tific expedition which was sent to the
Island Of Martinique to study the sit
uation caused by the eruption of Mont
Pelee, has drawn up a second report
in which, speaking of the eruption Of
August 30, the commissioners say that
the disquieting eruption of that day
renders continuous study of the phe-
nomenon necessary.
"Thore is no longer any doubt" the
commissioners say, that the evscu-
alton Of the entire Mont Pelee region,
which we did not consider indispensi-
BILE a month ago, should now be car
ried out. Until the volcano disturb
anoes have ceased the southern limits
of the mountain ought to be most &C
lively watched, especially If it is DEM
onstrated that the last eruption was
due to a new crater in the lateral
fissure."
The report concludes by dwelling
upon the danger of tine tidal waves

WELL-T0-D0 NEGROES
FEAR THEY WILL BE FORCED
TO LEAVE ELDoRADO.

Carbonate, Ill, Sept. 15-The Ss-
line county grand jury, which has
been in Sc ssion all the week, made q
partial report today, but no bench
warrants have been issued in con nee
ton with the attack Thursday night
on John Beans house. A large number
of witnesses appeared before the jury,
but it is generally believed that those
who did appear could shed compare
lively no light on the subject or else
were unwilling witnesses. More sol.
diers will be sent to the scene, prob.
ably another full company. The at.
tack on Beans house and barn sh ows
clearly that the character Of the col.
ored man does not enter into the feud.
Bean has been highly respected and is
a man OF considerable means. He had
lived there many years and accumu-
lated much of his money there. He
was peaceable and he took no part in
county affairs. Near him is quite a
settlement Of well-to.do colored citi-
zens, who apparently will be forced
out Of the community.

FINANCES SHAKY
China on Verge Of Bankruptcy, Says
Gen. Sharretts.
Is in the Hands OF Thieving Officials
Who Rob the Government.

San francisco, Sept. lb-speaking
Of the commercial outlook in the
ORIENT, Gen. t. S. Sharretts, the
United States commissioner who re-
Gently aided in framing 3 new tariff
for China, and who is now here en-
route TO Washington, said;
Reform is urgently needed in the
financial policy Of China and its
methods of managing financial affairs,
and especially In collecting revenues.
"As matters stand, American trade
with China is OF little Importance and
never will amount TO much under
the proposed new tariff, or under any
tariff. The collection OF the govern
ment's revenue is placed in the hands
OF middlemen, or thieving officials, II
you will, who permit about 10 per
cent OF their collections TO reach the
government. China is on the eve Of
bankruptcy, and unless the powers get
together and force the country into
revolutionizing its methods within
the next ten years there will be an
awful crash in the Far East China
will appear in the deplorable role
Of defaulting in her payments OF in
demnity to the treaty powers, and the
division Of the Chinese empire among
the big world powers will surely
follow"
Mr.. Sharretts gave IL as his opinion
that China would attach her signature
TO the new tariff before long.
Mr. Sharretts was instrumental in
preventing the signing by China of
the proposed new British commercial
treaty, which, by providing for an
abolition OF the Likin tax and an in
creased duty on all imports, he says,
would have injured American trade
with China.
