DON'T NEED THE HONOR.

The Editor of the ENTERPRISE
has been urged to make the race
for mayor-we were urged to do
so two years ago. Then as now
we positively declined to consider
the matter. Not that we havn't
the ambition and would appre-
ciate the honor. We are sensible
of the compliment, and willing
always to serve the people of
Fitzgerald in any capacity for
her good, but there are those
competent and worthy who have
more time and probably the in
Clination. Besides we believe we
can do more good in the high
office of editor of the ENTERPRISE.
eve might have said in our hum
BILE capacity but that would have
been not only commonplace Ian
guage but untrue, for we are I'M
acquainted with humility and we
believe that our high office of ed
itor is an exalted one.) At any
rate we have plenty of profitable
and pleasant employment and our
present relations to the commu-
nifty and the city government is
a matter of gratifcation.-FITz-
GERALD ENTERPRISE.
You are right in declining the
offer, Brother Mercer. Being
free fram political Office, you are
in much better position to criti-
else or commend the public acts
of those who would otherwise be
your co-partners. You can now
use more freedom in expressing,
and your opinions will carry
greater weight with them than
you could expect if you were a
mayor and an editor com bined;
because, then your editorial ex-
pressions would be considered by
the public as being biased by
personal interest.-Te1fair En-
terprise.

The Lee-Grant Hotel is now
open to the public. Mrs. Kate
Meyers moved from the Windsor
into the big hotel Monday and
served supper in the magnificent
dining hall. Everybody who has
an interest in Fitzgerald feels a
pride in the Lee-Grant and de.
sires toseeit a popular tourist re-
sort. Now that we have the tour
list rates, and the hotel open, all
who have the best interest of
Fitzgerald at heart, should en-
brace every opportunity to assist
and encourage the visitors neces-
sary to make the season a success
and make the opening of the Lee
Grant distinctly step forward
in the colony's progress.

According to the Moultrie OBJ
server the Union Lumber Com.
pany's mill No. 2 situated near
Moultrie broke all previous rec
ords one day last week by saw
ing 1890 #. of lumber in less
than 10 hours. THE record has
been held heretofore by the Tiff
mill at Triton. That mill sawed
$4,000 feet in a day, but ran
several hours longer than the
mill at Sunset. It is not thought
that any Georgia mill eyer cut
more lumber in nine hours and
fifty minutes than the Sunset
mill cut last Friday.

The American Tribune New
Colony Company by it's president
P. H. Fitzgerald and secretary,
H. A. Fenton, through the col
umns of the American Tribune,
make special appeal to the mem
bers of the new Texas colony
for loan of $40 on each share
of stock. It seems that the loan
is necessary to save the Texas
investment on which several
thousand dollars has already
been paid. They do not say how
much has been paid on the sixty
two thousand acres, except,
all of the money received from
the sale of stock. Nor do they
state how much is still due on
the land. They state they have
purchased over sixty-two thous-
acres which when paid for, will be
worth 100000. They offer 7
per cent interest on this loan, but
it seems that the shareholder
who puts more money in the
proposition would very ma turally
want to know how much money
had been paid and about how
much is yet to be raised. The
Enterprise has nothing but the
kindest feelings for Mr.. Fitzger.
aid, personally, and we are will.
ing for him to start colony ev-
cry year. The one he planted
here is certainly success, but
the advertisements he is running
in the Tribune lack frankness.
He should be very candid with
his subscribers and let them
know precisely what thew are
buying.

A bill passed the senate this
week making a plain drunk a
misdemeanor, punishable by
fine and Imprisonment. The law
is made to apply only in the coun-
try districts, so as not to conflict
with municipal regulations The

keeping their ward inside city

Judge Roberts went a long
way toward discouraging, if in
deedhe did not quite wang uish the
blind tiger herd that made East-
man famous for several months,
at the fall term of Dodge Super
ior court last week. The grand
jury returned a great many bills
of indictment, of these thirty
two were for the unlawful
sale of intoxicating liquors, dis
tributed as follows: Nine bills
against H. L. Donaldson, nine
against Henry A. Peacock, one
against John Swearengame, five
against Warren Lawson, two
against j. E. Rogers, one against
Andrew Underwood, one against
Horace Boykin, one against Ar
thur Chapman, one against James
Chapman, two against Henry
Smith. Underwood was con-
victed and got twelve months or
$3.50 and cost; Lawson five
months or $125 and cost; Arthur
and James Chapman twelve
months or $50 each and cost;
Boykin twelve months or $3.50
and cost; Smith has not been
arrested.
H. L. Donaldson and Henry A.
Peacock were allowed to plead
guilty in one case each and the
other indictments against them
were all continued. Judge Rober-
is imposed upon Donaldson fine
of S650.O0 and costs, the alternat-
i've being twelve months in the
changing in default of payment
of the fine. In passing the sem
tence Judge Roberts referred to
the recent fragrant violations of
the local option law in our county
and gave the defendant and others
some very sound and wise adj
vice, and stated that in the event
it should be learned that the de-
PENDANT again violates this law he
would be at once rearrested, a
special term of court would be
promptly called, and the other
indictments against him would
be tried, and that if such trials
should result in convictio the de-
PENDANT would not be given an OPP
portunity to pay any fine, but
would be sentenced to the chain
gang. The Judge said further,
however, that should the defend
ant hereafter abstain from viola
tons of the law the court would
in a few years order nolle prose-
qui. on the other indictments
against him, In the case of Hen
ry. A Peacock Judge w. M. Hen
ry, of Rome, presided in place of
Judge Roberts disqualified, and
imposed the same sentence as
that imposed in the Donaldson
case and made some further prac-
teal and sensible remarks in re-
gard to the rights and duties of
citizens, and the Importance of
enforcing the law, and said it had
been his observation that more
evils and crimes result from VOL
atoms of the liquor laws than
from all other criminal statutes
combined. All that was said by
both Judges was in perfect harm
ony with what the Times Journal
has been saying for the past two
or three months.
