Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1908-02-20

0F Re- u.

Washington, d. C. Feb. II, 0S.s
no the Voters of the Third Con-
gressional District:
After very thoughtful consider
alton, ] now announce my candi-
dacy for the Sixty first Congress.
In doing so, / am prompted by the
following reasons. I have very
great confidence that in the com
ing election the Democrats will he
successful in electing the Prcsi-
dent and a Democratic House Of
Representatives.
The tariff is the most important
Of any Of the legislation that is to
be considered, and the country is
looking to the Democratic Party
as the only party that is united in
an honest effort for proper revis-
ION of the present existing high
land protective tariff, which is, and
has ever been, responsible for fav
eritism and many evils in our in
dustrial affairs. My constituents
know that I have at all times hon
estly espoused tariff revision.
Banking and Currency will con
tinue to be a conspicuous propo-
sition, requiring corrected legisla-
ton. Having given this much
study and al present being the
ranking democratic member of
that committee, l am justified in
the belief that in a Democratic
House of Representatives / would
very naturally be the Chairman of
the Banking and Currency Com
mittee.
succeeded in passing through
the last House bill permitting
national banks to loan money on
real estate, and will continue to
urge the proposition that the good
farm lands of the South and West
are of the very best security, and
that the farmer should not be de-
MED the privilege Of obtaining
money at lowest competitive rates
of interest from any and every loan
ing institution.
I am also much concerned in Sc
curing the passage of pending bills
for appropriation for several pub
lie buildings in the district, also a
Soldiers Home to be located at
Fitzgerald.
Therefore, in the belief of com
ing democratic supremacy, then l
feel it a duty that l owe to my
friends, as we'll as myself, to an
nounce my candidacy. In max
ing this an nouncement for the
next Congress, | desire to heartily
thank the people of the District
who have always been Sc generous
and good to me, and now take this
occasion to say that under no con-
dition will 1 again be a candidate
after the Sixty first Congress. /
will then have given fourteen of
the very best years Of my life to
the public service, and will, at the
expiration of that time, retire and
give my attention to my private
business affairs which have been
subordinate to my public duties.
Yours very respectfully,
e. B. Lewis.

The month of February is blessed
with two legal holidays, the n in CO.
memorating the anniversary Of the
birth of Abraham Lincoln, the other
of George Washington. There were
held in various cities of the country.
banquets and celebrations in honor
of these two occasions. Yet for
some reason the public has refused
TO take hold of these holidays as
heartily as they do others in the
year. Perhaps not enough attention
has been given to it by those who
would naturally have it in change.
Perhaps the school teachers of the
country have neglected these splen-
did opportunities, believing rather
that a few more pages of the three
RS of more benefit than the les
sons Of the nations heroes. Per-
haps the business men of the land
have been too intent chasing the
elusive dollar. But whatever the
reason, the fact remains that the
irthdays of these our greatest
Americans are allowed to pass each
year almost unnoticed. Would not
the nation as a whole, composed as
it is of so many nationalities, profit
greatly by a little time spent each
year III remembering the virtues of
our great men and celebrating their
memories with appropriate holidays?
We believe 1T would. Whatever
tends to uplift the moral ideals of a
nation, whatever tends to WELD the
conflicting interests of a cosmopoli-
tan people into one mighty national
pride, is worthy of observance and
study,
