Ernest Camps editorial page looks good
and reads well.
Providence is all that can save US from a
disastrously large cotton crop.

Fitzgerald's prospects look good to- us.
Never looked better aud that's putting it strong.
Savannah has started crusade against dogs,
which reminds us that the dog tax is about due
in Fitzgerald again, and Chief Smith might thin
the CANNES out before the hot season.
We trust our friends will not forget that we
are candidate and that we are in dead earnest
about getting elected. The election is long
way off which will give the public opportuni-
ty to consider our merits and dement's.

Waycross will enjoy vast advantage the
coming summer by local improveme OF the A.
C. L. amounting possibly to four hundred
thousand dollars but the stimulus the invest
ment will give to trade is but small part OF
Waycross' gain 1t means large pay roll.
The esteemed Fitzgerald Enterprise will
please enter our prlze.wlnner years suDscr1p-
ton in the name of Hugh Porter, proprietor of
the Oglethorpe Hotel, Brunswick, Ga-Bruns-
wick Journal.
Mr.. Porters name goes on our list today,
dated one year ahead. If he reads carefully
each of the 156 issues, he will be greatly bene-
fitted.
The hot weather that has characterized
sections of the north will reach this country
along in June. At Ithica, N. Y, last Wednesday,
the temperature was 81 degrees, and there were
several prostrations or sun-strokes Two deaths
from heat at Pittsburg. At Wilkesbarre and
Williamsport the mercury was the highest for
several years.
Editor Mercer, of the Fitzgerald Enterprise
has announced himself candidate for Mayor of
Fitzgerald or for representative in the Georgia
legislature. Why don't he run for both? Moth
ing like having whole lot of good thing.-Quit-
man Advertiser.
That's exactly what we are doing Brother
May, but we shall be quite content with either,
and as soon as we sinch one we shall quit the
race for the other.
Editor Mercer. of the Fitzgerald Enter
prise, insists that there is northern or south"
ern society in Fitzgerald. You are right Broth
err Mercer, Fitzgerald is too enterprising to
split on such matter.-Athens Banner.
There are some business rivalries in Fitz-
gerald that may sometimes hinder, but the peo-
pie are too sensible to permit split on so trivial
a matter Even the business rivalry is not be-
tween the northern and southern element We
have never seen division on that line, and we
hope we never will.
Col. Estell is quietly, but persstently run
ming" for the gubernatorial nomlnatlon.-War-
renton Clipper.
Which reminds us that one of the brainest
representatives Georgia has had in the U. S.
senate since the days of Benjaman Harvey Hill,
was "persistent1y running" for gubernatoria1
and other nominations long before he was honor
ed. The persistent candidate should not be dis
credited on account of his persistency.

From North Georgia source, even this
small crumb is ppreciated.-Fltzgerald Enter
prise.
Yes, and it's still rising, Now take that!
Georgia Free Lance.
We take it brother with avidity. We have
an abiding faith in the spirit of justice that
must COMPEL North Georgia. Middle Georgia
and South Georgia to agree that South Georgia
is entitled to furnish the next governor of the
state.
Hon. Hoke Smith has had his letter on the
cotton situation printed in pamphlet FORM and
is sending it broadcast over the state. Mr..
