Fitzgerald enterprise., 1906-09-20

City free delivery is coming.
The Atlanta Georgian believes in municipal
ownership by evolution.
The subject of Good Roads," like the
/ poor" is always with us.
Fitzgerald wants no prosperity based upon
corruption and immortality.

The great democratic commoner, William
Jennings Bryan, is today receiving the official
glad hand of Georgia democracy.

That there has been much unnecessary de-
lay in the matter of old man Rawlings and the
car of Russia is the opinion of many persons.
The importance of tree-planting on the
streets is again pointed out to our citizens. Let
the beauty and splendid shade of the trees ale
ready growing be constant admonitlon to con"
tinued planting.
Yes, dear readers, we could fill the Enter
prise, every page of it, with whiskey advertise
z
ular patrons, but the company that owns the
Enterprise was not organized with the single
purpose of money making, but, in its humble
way, purposes accomplishing something in the
cause of humanity.
It now appears that Hon. T.. C. Crenshaw
sought nomination at the hands of the Macon
convention. If he did, and there appears to be
no doubt about it, since his letters soliciting his
friends to work for his nomination in the con-
vention have been published and are not denied
BY him, then his extreme inconsistency should
lead him to Immediately get out of the race.
Certainly he doesn't expect democrats to vote
for him.
Judge D. NJ Roberts is a candidate for the
court of appeals. We do not mention this as a
matter of news because he has been candidate
for several weeks. Judge Roberts is warm
personal friend of the editor of the Enterprise
and we would be glad to support him. He is
ripe in experience and good judges claim that
he has clear judicial mind. He is personally
popular in the Oconee circuit particularly, and
has many friends all over the state.

The passing of John Alexander Dowie re-
moves the great central figure and lode'stone
around which the greatest of modern religious
,sects clustered and grew until city, the Won
der of all chrisendom in purity of moral charac'
ter and christian influence, was builded. Dow
lie was all in all to the Restoration Hosts" and
with him removed the hosts will scatter and
Zion City will steadily lose it's distinguishing
features. Hamlet has lost it's ghost.

Editor Mercer is public-spirited but slight
" intolerant. He will will not hear any answer
TO the statement that Fitzgerald is outgrowine
Cordele This will be tight race in South
Georgia, anyhow.-Savannah Press.
We can not do more than admit that Cor
dele is giving Fitzgerald race that is interest
ing to say the best of it. A slight difference 1r
age gave Cordele quite an advantage IN the
start but we have overcome the handicap and II
is now neck and neck contest down the stretch
It is now proposed to have congress
adopt a law for the punishment OF mining
fakirs and for moulders of illegitimate enter
prises. These fraud operators have worked sc
successfully and they have become so numer-
Gus that state laws have already been adopted
against them in some of the western states.
On1y recently several of the best business
men of Ocil1a went to Colorado and invested IN
a mining enterprise. We are not prepared 10
saw that they were faxed, but we have had
strong suspicious on that score since the mo-
rnent we heard they had gone. 1t is reasonable
10 osuppose that there is plenty money IN Denver
