STORY OF INHERITED MEMORIES

A writer in the Nineteenth Century tells d strange story of inherited memories" The ruins of an ancient Roman fortress rise from the grounds of a MT. Phillips. A clergyman called upon the owner one day and asked to see the ruins. He told me he had a distinct recollection of living there and that he held some office of a priestly nature in the days of the Roman occu- patiOn.' said MT Phillips. one fact struck me as significant. He insisted on examining a ruined tower which had bodily overturned. There used to be a socket in the top of it. he went on. in which we used to plant a mast and archers used to be hauled up to the top in a basket protected with leather, from which they picked off the lead CTS among the ancient GOrlestOnians. We found the socket he had indicated .''

better than it did at any time in the past. There is more. honesty, more humantarianism and more capability in the world than there was a thousand years ago. a hundred years ago, or at any time in the past.
 There has therefore been an inn provement in government. Sometimes this improvement has been so gradual as to be imperceptfble. Its progress has left hardly a mark on the page of history At other times when it's up ward progress has been met by unnat- uraI resistance it has broken through in bloody upheavaIs and red blots have illuminated the record of events
 In his address at Cumberland, Md. on Sunday night, Secretary Bonaparte pointed out the futility of attempting to secure perfect government in a day or a year by the adoption of hastily formed theories Perfection or even conspicuous improvement of govern ment is not the work of a brief period or of a single man or of all the men of a particular epoch.
 There are half-baked theories by superficial teachers and writers for the redress of all grievances. These fall into the hands of half-baked and ignorant persons who become reform CT" under various names. It is only step from the reformer of this class to the anarchist.
Arizona republican., 1906-08-14
THE GROWTH OF GOVERNMENT

No government perhaps is precisely what 1t ought to be and it is quite probable that no government which the governed will call perfect will ever exist But all the time there is a ten dency towards the best government When all men become perfect. or we may say, when majority of men be- come perfect, then perfection will be reflected in the best form of govem- ment humanly attainabIe. All that Is a long way off.
 Mankind is ruled or rules itself much

Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1906-04-14

Fitzgerald has secured the machine shops
of the Atlantic and Birmingham railroad. We
fear the worst for Editor Mercer. He cannot
stand the railroads and their corrupting inAu-
ence and even $4,000 to $4,000 dumped into
Fitzgerald every month may cause him to have
still worse night horses. If they keep on
bringing railroads to Fitzgerald Brother Me1-
Ger will take his departure via. the stage coach
route.-Hawkinsve News and Dispatch.
Our Hawkinsville neghbor has got his esti-
mate of the Editor of the Enterprise sized up by
measure that he uses for people nearer
home. The Editor of the Enterprise went af
ter the shops. We have been trying to clear
away the corrupting influence preparatory for
the coming of the shops and we are proud to
report we have succeeded fairly we'll in the pre-
paration as well as the acquisition.

James M. Griggs, Hon. 0. 3. Stevens and the
latter's son-in-law, Hon M. J. Youmans, Chair
man of the State Democratic Executive Commit
tee is overwhelmingly for Hoke Smith. That
fact was clearly evidenced in the recent mass
meeting held in Dawson. The meeting was
dominated by Hoke Smiths supporters; Hoke
Smith men were elected chairman and secretary
of the meeting, and the chairman and majority
of the mem bers of the county executive comm
tee elected by the mass meeting are HoKe
Smith men. The distinguished gentlemen
mentioned above are not supposed to be support

people and business men of Terr ell county nave
a preference for Smith.-Newman News.

Is It "Rule or Ruin?"

Hon. B. E. Wilcox has, in the Fitzgerald
Enterprise of last Tuesday, letter which, in at
least one particular, seems to us extraordinary.
He feels assured that he will pass the high Ii
cense bill for Irwin next June, but fears that the
new county, if it should be created, would lose
the benefit of that law un less he is succeeded
by prohibitionist. If majority OF the voters
of the Ito be) new county are in favor OF high
license, or prohibition, the new county will be
dry, it matters not who may succeed Mr.. Will
cox-they will vote it dry the first opportunity
"Wet or dry'' is not an issue in this cam
paign, that issue was decided two years ago by
the election of Mr.. Wilcox, and it does not
seem to us to be wise, on his part, to seek to
force high license liquor or any other Legislation
upon a county not yet created. 1t should be
left to the people themselves to decide such
matters, after the organization of the new coun-
ty.
Mr.. Wilcox was elected to represent Irwin
county, and we believe he is doing so faithfully
and to the best of his ability; but when he seeks
toiniect new issue into campaign about to
close for the avowed purpose of extending his
high license bill to prospective county, and
which, per onsequence, he is arrogatlng to
himself the performance Of duty certainly not
contemp plated by those who elected him, and as
certainly savoring of attempt to interfere
in the government of another county, and it not
vet born! And the people themselves cannot
but fe Ell that their ability to govern their new
county, if created, is grave1y doubted by our
representative.
There are but two issues in this cam paign,
and there is great danger to the best interests
of the whole county in bringing in another at
this time, having for its purpose the regulation
of the liquor traffic in county not yet made.
The two issues are: "A new county," and mo
new court house at Irwinvlle. ''-Ocilla Star.
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1906-04-14
Not a Mud Singer

The Savannah Press devotes more than
column of its editorial page to Hoke Smiths
speech at Waynesboro. 1t seems to be fair
and impartial account of the situation in Burk
County. The Editor of the Press evidently
has been taking what the Atlanta Constitution
says about Hoke Smiths propensity to sling
mud in his campaign speeches as the truth, for
he seems to be surprised at the lack of bitter
ness and mud-s1ingng in the Waynesboro
speech.
The editor of the Acknowledgements has
been under the impression ever since he first
heard Mr.. Smith that Hoke Smith is not the
slanderer but, rather if anything, is the sland-
ered The editor of this paper has twice heard
Mr. Smith since the campaign began-once in
the early part of last fall and again more recent"
1y Both times there were criticisms of some
conditions that need to be changed, but these
criticisms we're made in a dignifed manner
and there was nothing savoring of Campaign
of traducton" or the semblance of mud-sllng-
ing Mr.. Smith appeals to the reason of his
hearers; points out reforms that need to be lnstl
tuted, and suggests ia what manner a better
condition can be brought about.-Advocate-
Democrat.
No, Hoke Smith is not mud-slinger. No
man in the state can be more Disguised with
the campaign of mud that has deem literally fore
ed on him, than he is. He refrained as long as
forbearance could in any wise be considered a
virtue, and he is respectful to his hot
headed antagonists as it is possible to be.
It is not thought-in Irwinve-that Fitz-
gerald stands the least chance of getting new
county. She came within one vote of getting it
last summer.-Ocilla Star
Yes, came within one vote. We had that vote,
but for an unavoidable occurrence, the desper-
ate illness of the mother of the member who
cast the vote, we would have the first
ballot of the committee Think of what the
sentmen would have been if Mr.. Mathews of
Houston, members of the committee had been
at the meeting and voted as he did at last for
Fitzgerald Has it ever occurred to you, dear
reader, what the difference in public sentiment
would have been, how the fellows who now harp
about FAILURE would have sung the praises
of those who worked so industriously and I'M
se1fshly for Northen County. Suppose the good
mother of Representative Mathews had kept in
good health and the representative consequent
ly STAYED in Atlanta and voted with the commit
tee on it's first ballot, you imagine what The
effect would have been if the news flashed over
the wires to Fitz gerald had read WE WONO
THE FIRST BALLOT" Ia that event those
who had worked for the county would have been
lionized. Nothing succeeds like success.

Very correct, and we will see that she gets
