Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1906-01-11

The aggressive editor of the Fitzgerald Emit
erprise is about to find what trouble really is.
The ladies of the Fitzgerald w. C. T. U. are
after him.-Thomasvtlle Times-Enterprise.
We confess that is the least bit EN- barassing
to be put to the necessity of explaining to good
woman, and especially socei'y of good women
that they have been imposed on. They take it
as an insiuuation hat there is want of abili ty
or discriminating judgment, and very naturally
resent it, notwiths taEding the fact that it has
always been true that honest people are more
easily imposed on by the designing than any
other class. 1t is recognized truth that the
cause of temperance has failed IN thousand
communities for the simple reason that shreWd
whiskey man, or men, can disrupt and divide
the ranks of the prohibit .onists by some cunning
scheme or device.
But
The Ladies of the w. c. t. U. and the
Enterprise are no wise in danger OF estrapge-
ment. There not enough enemies OF the
Enterprise or of temperance to keep US apart.

In looking for an unbiased report of the
meeting of the leading gubernatorial candidates
at Coumbu we turne to the Macon Telegraph
which. however, is inimcal to Mr.. Smith S can
didacy, and if it exhibited any bias or pre- JUDGE
it was naturally in favor of Mr.. Howell. The
account of the scenes and Incidents, "a reported
in the Telegraph, clearly indicate that Mr.. How
ell was at a hopeless disadvantage in the debate
and that Mr. Smith astonished his friends and
enemies by keeping his temper. while Mr.. How
ell became ratified at the demonstrations OF dis
approval of his il1-advised attacks on the popu-
list element as well as his position on the suf-
erage question. 1t is not probable that Mr.. How

that his friends will permit him t, make any

This mornings Record Miner con- tains an outline of the points touched in the presidents message, which was delivered to both branches of congress at noon yesterday. Of Alaska, it says: "Alaska is given a great amount of at tention. President Roosevelt thinks that complete reorganization of the government of the territory is needed at once and is absolutely necessary. He asks that the reorganization be along lines that he has outlined before, in- cluding commission to revise the laws, readjustment of taxes, and new laws necessary now through changed conditions. There is no suggestion that territorial government should be provided, The President calls atten- tion to the Alaska -Yukon-Pacific expo sition at Seattle and says that it should appeal to the citizens of the whole of the United States because it will be the means of upbuilding the commerce of the Pacific and the United States. There can be no doubt, he says, that when in few years more Alaska's de- velopment has been increased that it will become land of homes.
