Pu for Fitzgerald or
The big auction sale for next Thursday will

Pull Out
No. dear Pauline the whiskey men not all
dead nor have they all migrated from Georgia, and
to man they are against Smiths re election, don't
ask us why, they no doubt have reason.
Fitzgerald
No matter who is elected for governor, Smith,
Brown or anyone else, but let us stand by Jess
Mercer for Prison Commissioner; Mercer is one of
the thoroughly clean and brave men left over al
ter Georgia politics went into ''refawm "-Cordele

years old, and has been in practically the same
hands or management since it's establishment. The

to- FtzgNald Pull Out
The negroes are rushing to register, they tell
u.s. to save themselves from disfranchsement, but
it will do them no good. Hoke Smith sounded the
death knell of negro politics in Georgia about
two years ago. and we haven't seen negro at the
polls since. Thank God for that and incline
to thank Hoke too. If he did nothing else in all
his life he would be entitled to be classed among
the states benefactOrs
TO
The Enterprise has no disposition to question
the right of any man to vote for Mr.. Hughes. The
truth of the matter is we rather Sickle for that
liberty of action that permits a man to vote for
who he pleases, but we very seriously question the
wisdom of any voter who hesitates to endorse and
hold up the hands of Congressman Lewis at this
time Fitzgerald and Ben Hill should give him
rousipg majority, one that will encourage him to
push thro our Soldiers Home bill. We want the
buildings for the home up before it would be posi-
bic for newly elected Congressman to take his
seat which will be December year.
Pull for Fitzgerald Out
The Enterprise on the question of Congress-
man, is for Fitzgerald first. We are for the man
who we believe can do us the most good. Both
candidates fare high toned honorable men. We
don't want anything to interferei with our Sol
diers Home plan.
If Mr.. Hughes should be elected to congress it
would be December 1909 or nearly two years be-
in that time we would like to the Soldiers
Home well underway of construction.
Pull for Fitzgerald or
OF course the Governor is responsible for
every thing. A physician told us the other day
that Fitzgerald distressingly healthy and that
there was nobody else to blame, and that he did
not see how the doctors could be expected to vote
for the Governor under such conditions. If he
could send us down small epidemic of measles or
something of the kind he might have better
showing with the doctors here tomorrow.
Fitzgerald
The editor of this paper has never been
Livingston Man.
He is quoted as opposing the disfranchise-
ment of the negro; ''for, he said, ''we will need
him in eight years to beat Tom Watson and his
class which the negro call the poor white trash"
Now we don't doubt that Lon said it, it's just like
him and three reputable witnesses swear that he
did say it in midnight speech delivered in Fair
burn April, 3rd.
He was probably drunk but that is no ex-
cuse; Congressman has right to get drunk in
Fairburn or in. Washington. The truth of the
matter is the Enterprise wants to see the day come
when whiskey guzzling men will disappear from the
halls of Congress and all other public offices.
We confess with shame that it is often too
easy for drinking man to be elected in Georgia.
