Fitzgerald enterprise., 1906-11-29
THE WEATHER.
Washington, D. c., Nov. 24-For Georgia
Fair tonight and Friday.
LET US BE THANKFUL.


The Enterprise is thankful today-thank-
full that Fitzgerald has saloons, but instead
will have an elegant and commodious school
building completed and equipped within the next
year.
This eleven cents for cotton makes noise
very much like prosperity.
Principle, not person, is the actuating mo-
n tive of every conscientious voter.
The South Georgia Conference is in session
at Valdosta today and will hold one week.

Were William Jennings Bryan citizen OF
B Georgia, he would be staunch advocate of the
extension of the state road to port. This en-
terprise is little short of practical Endorsement
Il of his pet theory.
The Enterprise heartily commends the
I spirit and zeal that ac yates the members of the
Baptist church to build modern and creditable
church, one that all Baptist and all good citizens
of Fitzgerald will be proud of.
We have but short life at best and should
Improve every opportunity to do good. One
that is what we try to do although it is some.
q times embarrassing.
P. S. We have not near made up our nina
TO quit discouraging the bad.

The Enterprise is opposed to the red light
brigade. We have been opposed to wide OPEN
ers in this town since the day the paper was
started under it's present management. Ger"

Too much has already been accomplished and
there is too much yet to be accomplished. We
shall favor the very best, cleanest Christian men
for Office We believe are right and we are
sure we are firm in the conviction.
Railroad to connect this city and Fitzger-
aid is now in order nd is the next move on the
board The monied men of the two cities usu
ally get what they go after.-Turner County
Banner.
Such railroad connection would be of adj
vantage to Fitzgerald aud of course we can not
afford to be long without it. Its entirely proper
to agitate the question at this time although 1t
may be several months before we get right
down to the brass tacks.

Immediately after the state primary, great
deal was said abo=t Judge r. B. Russell leading
the ticket for court of appeals to every thought
full mind it was plain enough that Judge Rus.
sells lead of the other candidates was due large
ly to the fact that he supported almost
solidly by an,i-Smith vote and not because he
was stronger with the people than either of the
other candidates elected, which contention is
amply born out by the result in the general
election. Mr. Hill of Atlanta led the ticket with
Powell close second.
News comes from Atlanta that the Central
had actually swiped one of the A. B. & A. loco
motives. The A. B. & A. sent the locomotive
to Atlanta for a train load of coal. The engine
was kept so constantly on sidings waiting for
passing trains that the crew, being Y hrs. on
: the road, was sleepy by the time Atlanta was
reached and while they were taking the neces-
-sary rest before the return trip the train load
of coal was confiscated and the locomotive stolen
and pressed into service and it was sometime
before il could be found. 1t was engine No. 1907
wsicl is now at Fitzgerald doing business for
the home folks.
Esnli for Fitzgerald or Pull out.
