Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1907-06-27

rich upon the opportunities of his position Gas
per German, Democrat, and Aldrich Republi
can, Pat bought the support of the two grand
moguls of the Farmers Alliance-Livingston
and Macune-and came down from New York
to Atlanta to receive the goods.
The deal was SO utterly shameful that it
failed, by hairs breadth; and Pat had to
realize that the money he had paid Livingston
and Macune was one of his bad investments.
''Then he turned his restless mind to the
Central Railroad of Georgia; and when he had
finished the business he had robbed the stock
holders of several million dollars, If we had
had state administration and public senti-
ment that were worth a pinch OF snuff, Pat
Calhoun would then have been arrested as
common thief and robber; and sent to the
penitentiary where such men belong. In Geor-
gia, however, we are such poor-spirited lot
of cravens and party slavs that we will submit
to any sort of crime that is backed by politi-
cal clique and few ewspapers-hence we
never lifted finger in protest while Pat Cal
houn was robbing the stockholders of the Cen
trail Railroad.

''Once a rascal, always !. rascal; ;E" Pats
career of crime at length took hln W. San
Francisco, the paradise of commercial knayery.
Corruption being the order OF the day IN
San Francisco, Pat Calhoun waded into it up
to his chin Bi1bing the local bosses, just as
he had bribed Livingston and Macune, Pat got
franchise properties worth millions of dollars,
without having to pay a cent to the public to
whom the property belonged. In this way ne
was rolling in millions without ever having
done a thing to earn them, excepting to buy
the bosses who controlled the votes.
''But the reform waves that are sweeping
over the continent caught Pat in the very act.
The bosses whom he had bribed squealed.
Then the grand jury indicted Pat in fourteen
cases.
''Of course he ought to be sent to the penl-
Tertiary. In fact, man who devOtes his
whole life to evil, as Pat Calhoun has done,
ought to be put to death. We punish with
the extreme penalty of the law many man
whose crimes do less harm to society than is
inflicted upon us by such persistent lawbreak-
ers as Pat Calhoun. Watson's Jeffersonian.

said he would. This was a short

thought this matter was all set

II gave them up because | was
not able to pay for them"
The court had been moved to
Clerk Whitley's office where the
attorneys had access to the books
while examining witnesses.
They showed that 20 acre
tracts with title bond 4409, 1920,
once held by Katie Diemul had
been sold to the Fitzgerald Trust
Co.
There was also the record OF a
timber lease by j. B. Seanor to the
Ocmulge9 River Lumber Co. Al.
so a record of court costs and fees
to the amount of $3.50 paid by the
Receivers out of the colony fund,
for the suit of the United States
court against NJ. w. Garbutt, for
timber cut on the colony lands,
which timber Mr.. Garbutt had
bong hit of the colony receivers.
T. j. Luke sworn. He testified
that he had tried to buy, of the
Receivers, 100 acres of land west
of town, offering to pay 81, 80 an
acre. His offer was refused and !
his check returned to him. These
same tracts were afterwards sold /
to John w. Fletcher and David !
Clements for so cents all acre.,
The examination of the books
at Clerk Whitley's office showed
Il long list of description of land
lots, tracts and city lots which
had passed thro the hands of 9th
crs from the Receivers to Clare.
We haven't space nor time to
give the figures in detail but re-
fer You to the county books them
selves.
Being DESTROYS OF doing Justice
to all parties we call attention to
error in the 9th paragraph of Sat
urday,s issue whe re the compost.
tor made it read 50 per acre in
stead of 81 per lot. We refer to
the purchase of lots by Mr.. Gar
bntt where he paid Ware and

chased from the Receivers by
Ware and Seanor for 81 per lot.
