Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1907-03-23

there people who want to show now prom
biton will not prohibit.
The man that does not believe that prohlbl-
ton prohibits ought to come to Fitzgerald Tor a.
few days. There is OF as much whlskey
drank here in week as was drunk one year ago
after supper on Saturday night.
u There are 2,5O0,O0O miles of country
roads in this country. They will keep the
Good Roads" clubs busy few hundred
years yet-The Jeffersonian.
Fl We expect to add hundred miles or so IN
Ben Hill County within the next year.
Editor Gamble OF the Americas Times Re-
Ecorder says:
800 Don't let it ever be necessary to say that
while Americas is procrastinatlng, others
are humping" The city that procrastl-
mates is the city that gets left"
So say we. Hump! Fitzgerald, hump!
q The right Of man to kill himself is being
debated. But no man has a right to help
Ill his charlottesville Enterprise
Quite right. We heard this week OF a SON
&s|a-gun, threatening to kill this town and the
1T thing we heard was an inquiry about tar
ana feathers. He will probably be invited to
pull out, w t the chances OF being shot at
khe foot of the first grade for a freezing"
chicken monstrosity.
The chain prayer fool has struck Fitzgerald
and our prayer is that chain lightning will
as1ike him while he has got the good feeling on
him. 1t would be a pity TO let the opportunity
by and give him the chance to get bad before
h3 dies, and then it would be such good rid
snce for any community that we are praying
Earnestly, for the chain lightning. Now If the
einht Others victems of the nine times chain
prayer fend, will join US in prayer we feel sure
we will land the son-of-a-gun and save our neigh
h1rs from the pest.
Mr.. w. J. Willy, of Meter, was in the city
his week talking with our new county makers.
Aaking suggestion and hints as to the best way
I'd proceed with the work of securing a
county. Meter is in the county of Bulloch,
ane of the largest counties in the state and
within two miles of the corners of Emanuel and
Hatnall, almost as large as Bulloch. If the
enntry around Meter is thickly settled and
she soil is good it is sufficient reason for the
creation of new county at that place.

To swear out warrant is hard thing to

Of the world is doomed. The editor of this paper

On notice, here and now, that whenever and
wherever we are called on to fight them, we will
report for duty without hesitation and we ex-

Naturally we expect to be abused, but better
men than we are have been abused, and, like
the freshman was by being hung, we are getting
use to it.
It turns out that last years cotton crop is
nearly as large the 1904 crop, Is, 697 $40 bales
The census bureau reported the 10th, inst,
Wednesday of this week, 13.290,677. In spite
81 this fact the price holds up between 10c and
lie. The world can use 600 bale crop
10 10c this year. In all probability it will be
6xal million short OF that with correspondngly
sIeh price. We think 15c cotton next Oc-
ker not altogether out of reasonable calcula-
