The disfranchisers on the state committee
wen us few pointers on disfranchismen

Mr.. Howell knows by this time that Irwin
lot solid for him as it was thought to be last
sek thought it is inviting missionary ground

Now wouldn't Hoke be delighted to meet
Clark once more on the stump. Wonder II
trainer McWhorter wouldn't be willing to lei
him have one more opportunity.

We are offering a reward of hundred
thousand dollars for the man who will arrange
with Hamilton McWhorter & Co. date for
their little man Clark to meet Hoke Smith on the
stump one more time.
The action of the state democratic commit
Tee makes one thing clear, as clear as the noon
day sky, and that is that the things charged
against the ring candidate and their hackers
are founded in facts, real stern serious facts.

Mr.. S. d. Parsons and others came in this
morning on the Seaboard train from Abbeville,
and naturally talked some politics and it was de-
eided to take poll of the nine gentlemen in the
Coach, with the following result
Hoke Smith 7; Russell 1; Howell 1.

We do not question the committees rights,
Gf cia authority is called right,) to formu-
late rules for the guidance of the party, but
as democrat who never voted an other ticket,
we have right to say what we think of their
action.
Executive" means to execute. Then why
did the state Democratic Executive Committee
change one of the party rules or laws IN regard
TO eligibility of voters? That committee was
elected to execute the laws of the party, not TO
make them, else its name is misnomer. The
State democratic convention is or should be the
law making power for the party.-Ocilla Star
Some of the Clark Howell newspapers IN
South Georgia are getting red in the face and
hot under their collars trying to boost Col. rs
till for the governorship, but their efforts are
vain. The Hoke Smith voters IN South georgia
can't be caioled into supporting the genial Colo-
mel this time.-N ewnan News.
For the North Georgia people they use
candidate Jim Smith, or Judge Dick Russell TOR
about the same purposes.
1t seems that the opposition to Hoke Smith S
candidacy in the state, which has been so solicit
Gus about the negro. is willing to do some dis
frauchising on it's own hook the way it put II
on to 'the DO white trash" Clark Howell, Hamp
McWorther, ct ais will have some difficulty IN
making it clear why they are so ANXIOUS
about negro disfranchisment and at the same
time so willing to disfranchise thirty thousand
white voters at one swoop.

FITZGERALD Chamber of Commerce is ou'

attic and business like way brand new railroad
proposition that looks good to us, 1t Will not &c
any good to publish details, and the best service
the Enterprise can render it's readers IS to re
frain from the publication of unnecessary de
tails. But we are willing to wager several hund
red thousand dollars against any mans pocke'
change that Fitzgerald will have new and indie
pendent r. r. line in less than twelve months
Hon. Clark did not meet with the commit
tee but his "sperit" was there just the same

The puny opposition to the New County Il
notsupposed to rest long for as we have SAID De
fore while it is weak and puny there is fever
