Fitzgerald enterprise., 1906-11-15
A GOOD EXAMPLE.
Mr.. ]. e. Mercer,
Fitzgerald, Ga.

90 paid to our Prof Gooding, making total OF
$83 90 donated TO the Georgia Industrial Home
by the Democratic Committe of Ben Hill Coun'
ty. have also just read your editorial 10 entlon
and through your paper would like to express
our appreciation to the members OF the COMMIT
tee and all parties concerned
Mr.. Clark has suggested and you int1mated
in your editorial that other counties m1gnt DC
induced to follow this example of your Central
Committee. This is a good suggestion, ana
will at once take the matter up with the county
chairman of county committees throughout the
State I believe it will yield large results.
appreciate this donation from your County Com.
mittee, not only from the fact that it is a good
lift coming in a time of financial stress, but be-
cause of the spirit back of it and the probably
fact that it opens up new soure of income to
the Home.
Sincerely yours,
J. r. GUM, Gen, Mgr.

The policy of the Enterprise is aggressive,
so aggressive as to cause good friends to some-
times unthoughtedly crticise us, but, seriously
speaking, dear reader would you desire us to
change to spirtless and oblectless policy2
Anything that is for the betterment of this city
or community morally physically or intel1ectu-
ally is at once sure of positive and outspoken
advocate in the Enterprise; while its persistent
aud unrelenting war upon vice in every form
has earned for the Enterprise the esteem and
admiration of all the bet people of the COM
munity, and the uudying hatred of the corrupt
and lawless class. Anyway we couldn't change
we believe we're right, and wed rather be
right than Mayor of Fitzgerald or any other
man.
The Enterprise will continue to be the
friend of all that is good and the active and per-
sistent enemy of vice in all its forms.

In another column today we are publishing
the announcement of Drew w. Paulk, as candi-
date for reelection for the Office of Mayor. AS
Mayor, Mr.. Pau1k has not been entirely disa-
pointing. Many of his official acts have met out
hearty approval and vindidacted our very earn
est support two years ago. He has, however,
fallen in with bad political company and we re-
serve the right to vote against him should bet
ter man announce
A subscriber to the Enterprise the vener-
able mother of one of Fitzgerald's most respect
ed citizens, writes her son that she greatly en-
joys the paper, atho she is nearly eighty years
old and lives in distant county. We appreci-
or political friend who might have some selfish
reason for his words. We are very proud of
those who are proud of the Enterprise and we
are proud of the enemies we have made.

The first rape that has occurred in Atlanta
since the riot committed day before yes
terday. It was PECULIARLY audacious and two or
of affairs true1y alarming. Will some good
man opposed to lynching suggest remedy for
the unspeakable crime that terrifes Southern
