FITZGERALD is the biggest town OF its age

The Enterprise encourages the good, be-
cause it is duty, we discourage wrong Tor the
same reason. The first is easy and pleasant
but the latter duty is unpleasant and, unpron-
table from strick1y business standpoln, but 1t
must be done. If you abuse us, don't 40 II 10

We are in receipt of open letter No. to
Col.J.H III. Estill by Capt D. G. Purse. The
letter fills four four column pages equal to about
&c +ha Enf and eutlfelV
too long to publish or even read by as busy
man as the editor of the Enterprise has been
for several years past. We read letter No. l
from Capt. Purse directed at Candidate Estln,
and in these columns deplored its issuance. We
know Capt Purse and Col Estill and esteem
both men highly.
If we believed that there was probability
that Col. Estill would become the nominee for
governor, we would give the matter more care
full consideration and a more extended notice in
this paper.
J,H. Clark, telegraph operator at Chamb-
lee small station just north of Atlanta, went
crazy about fourteen year old GIRL and Tor
twelve or fourteen hours terrorized the commn1-
ties of Chamblee and Dunwoody, killing one
man and wounding sew eral, using quite quantl-
ty of ammunition with his shot gun and several
pistols with which he was armed before he was
shot down by the terrorized people. The ac-
couuts failed to state whether he was cigar
cite fiend or not.
Hoke Smith will play out sometime before
the primary.-Ex. Hopefully anti-Hoke Smith,
How disappointing Hoke Smith has proven
this far in the campaign to those papers that
guessed that the ring and railroads would land
their man Howell? For nearly twelve months
now we have read many times each week that
''Hoke Smiths strength is waning" "Hoke
Smith is losing ground, etc. How i'm measure
ably strong he must have been at the start!
With all the strength that has "waned" and all
the ground he has lost, he is yet admittedly
stronger than any man in the race. He is evil
IDENTIFY stronger than all the other candidates.
He will surely carry large majority of the
counties of the state in the face of their COM
bine (for they have combined) opposition.
Yes he will play OUT in the open and fan
GU. yr whole COW pen full of also-rans backed
by partisan committee, that delayed the pri-
mary in the vain hope that Mr.. Smith would
play OUT
