Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1907-09-28

The Enterprise has received copy of the
"Open Letter to President Roosevelt dated at
Minneapolis, Sept 10th and signed John Maddox.
We don't know who John is, and care less and we
really do not know what his grievance is. We
haven't time to read his letter in which HProhibi-
tionn and 'cLiberty'' seem to be at war. We
read Johns letter down some twenty lines to where
he states that the irrelgious class is now slave
to the fanatcal whims of the religious at least Gin
the now mobocratic state of Minnesota Probably
the best advice we could give John is to get relig
ion or pull out for the Figii Islands.
Pull for Fitzgerald Pull Out
w. S. Witham, the greatest banker the South
has probably known, was in evidence at the
Atlantic City Convention and made speech that
has attracted general notice. He told the North
ern Bankers present that they could not have
a panic while the South was marketing it's cotton
crop He told the convention of Astounding pros
perity of the South Among other things he said:
Il come to you from the land beyond the Pc
tomac. l left our farmers engaged in tearing
down old barns and building larger ones to hold
the unprecedented crops of 1907. left people
happy and prosperous in the prospect of a fifteen
cent cotton crop. l left the borrower and the
lender walking side by side engaged in peaceful
conversation. This is the great south which l rep
resent; the south which before the civil war stood
first in commerce, first in agriculture and first in
the halls of the national congress, and which comes
today marching with the tread of giant on to it's
former supremacy"
Now that sounds exactly right to us. We
love man loaded with that sort of inspiration as
we despise the man of crouch and grumble who
continually predicts eternal destruction.

The Tribune crowd are about the
checklist bunch above ground. 1t
poses as a booster of the city and
claims, for itself and its party the ere
dit for the prosperity and the advance
which the city has experienced for
while. As a matter of fact the Trib-
une for the past four or five years
has done more to retard the growth
of Salt Lake that all other causes
combined 1t made a business of
slandering and villifying the city and
state. 1t made a contract for two
years to send 1000 copies of the pa
per daily to the east for distribution
on condition that those papers would
contain all the vile ISLANDERS of this
state that the fertile brains of Tom
Kearns' hirelings could invent. 1t
made decent respectable people be-
lieve that Salt Lake City is the sewer
of the country the worst place on
the map, place where no decent
man would bring his family to live
and a place where investments were
unsafe. 1t sent broadcast for years
everything calculated to keep invest
ors and respectable home seekers
away. 1t left nothing undone which
would hurt the city and the state and
injure their good names. 1t has been
a bane to this state for years and now
it has the efrontery, the pure unadul-
teratcd gall to claim the credit for
the city's advancement. 1t, however,
can't fool many people.

the exchange to take so much trou-
bic to make UP those scrap books?
The truth is, that the more their pat
rons study these books the less they
know of the game.
"If you want to bet young man,
just come in and put your money up
on the first horse you come across
If the book makers want you to win,
why then you win, if they don't, why
then you loose your stakes"
Just then the caller started to call
another race. The stranger stopped
abruptly and listened, then getting
up sauntered out into the street.

HOW TURF EXCHANGES ARE
OPERATED.

There was big crowd at the local
turf exchange. All kinds of people
were there. Besides the professional
gambler, and the horseman, there
were business men who had just cal
led in on their way back from lunch;
the dry goods clerk looked in long
enough to see if his favorite was to
be among the starters over at Frisco,
and to put in a dollar which might
bring him enough to take his blue
eyed charmer out to Saltair; the law
yer too, was among the crowd with

OUR YOUNG GIRLS.
Traps Set for Young Feet.

The traps set for the feet of young
girls are cunningly hidden in Our
cities nowadays. Many a girl who
would not dream of going to saloon
sees no equal or worse danger in fire.
quentng fruit store or "ice cream
parlor' kept by Greek; and yet the
magistrates of our cities charge more
actual downfalls to these stores than
to more notorious resorts. Hundreds
of girls are allowed on the streets at
nightfall by their parents who could
not be persuaded to attend a pcrfor-
nance in one of those concert halls
that exist for no good purposes, and
yet who think nothing of going to the
five-cent theatres which now line the
business thoroughfares of our cities,
or the picture "arcades" where a pen
ny i'll the slot sets in motion a series
OF views whose effect on the young
beholder is absolutely degrading. AS
matter of fact, these "arcades" are
now among the first places that the
police visit in search of girls who have
run away from their homes. If they
can find that the girl has been fire.
quentng these places they feel reas.
onably sure where to look for her.
1t is not only that the pictures ex-
hibited at these penny or fve-cent
"arcades" are suggestive, but the
youths who hang about are vicious
and demoralizing. The path is very
easy from these "arcades" to resorts
from which there is no returning
Everything about these cheap ear
cades," from their low class of pic
lures, the insinuative character of their
music, the character of the people
who conduct them, to the very prodi-
gality of their illumination at night,
is an appeal to the barbarous sides of
Our natures.
Even more insidious have become
the music counters of cheap depart
ment stores as lettering places for
young girls and boys who habitually
meet there, where they listen to the
ragtime selections pounded out by So
called artists" and where dates"
are made for other places of amuse-
ment, Cases have been reported Of
very young girls who hung about
these counters till they lost their
working places, and then began that
period OF lying and Sinking which is
at the hasisEaf vice and crime. l-.-
