A Hint From Shipp.


leve anything of the kind. Now Jess may
restup a week Or two, or he may sell his good
will SO that he can't run paper il Fitzgerald
and then be compelled to move to some other
town to get back in newspaperdonl but he will
get back some how or other
His fingers have dipt too deep into printers
ink and he has grown to be too fond of the cat
to abandon him. Then Jess has made a sue
cess. His paper has been on top all the time.
Will he quit do you thinkg Not much, it
won't be very long before he will be deeper in
printers ink than ever before.
You can't a man from the thing he loves,
like hog, he will return to his wallow-Cor-

We are making no promises Shipp, indeed we
have made no plans; to be frank we have made but
one plan in many years We planned then to do
the best we could with our limited ability an
co weak human nature and we've been hewing
to the line ever since. One thing sure, we will be
busy, and whatever the employment, it will be q
useful one.
FlrSt otal we want to see Fitzgerald'S blg
daily success and, while we have nothing to do
with it's publication, we will watch for it's every
issue and scan it's every feature. We want to See
her tax values multiply many time have
seen these things in the past. We want to see her
moral improvement continue untilshe is absolute
ly the cleanest town in all theland. The tendency
is strongly that way and the progress already made
encouraging.
We may, like the SOW return to the walIowing
in the mire-of printers ink; We may not.

Mr.. Taft says: ''What would like to accomp-
South with the other sections in the support of my
administration. No doubt every president has
hoped, but hardly expected that the whole country
would support his policies even Roosevelt ex-
pressed that hope. But Mr.. Taft also declares
that well-directed opposition is absolutely
necessary for the proper conduct of our govern
ment-he says the Solid South is an evil,
because it lacks alocal opposition Of good charac-
ter and decency. Eow could his administration
be successful if it had only supporters? Why
does he not apply to himself the rules he offer us
Let us remind Mr.. Taft that he stands pledged at
present to the Roosevelt policies anu these are not
acceptable to the South-he has acknowledged the
Republican program in the past was unjust, and
now he admits that the tariff taxation is unjust
Shallwe indorse a wrong? Shall we abandon the
right because we are promised favors by man
pledged to the policies that have wronged us? We
know where we stand; where is Mr.. Taft-Times
Union.

Since we are to have a carnival let it be
clean one. The Enterprise reserves the right to

A Savannah man has been fined $500 and SEN
fenced to six months in Jail for vote buying If
half that we have heard about vote buying in Sa-
vannah be true, and all those guilty of buying and
selling votes were put in jail, it would bankrupt
Chatham county to support them and it would be
necessary to import the jailois; but it is hopeful
sign and we always read with interest anything we
see about conviction in Savannah on the charge
of vote buying, whiskey selling or gambling

Our old friend, John Grier (not over 49, has
organized a big stock company at Fitzgerald and
will publish daily paper. Two linotypes, fat
press and all around complete equipment will be
purchased John has the ability and the vim, and
be a success. Nashville Herald.
Spell it Greer, and let up on the ques-
ton of age. John is married now and it doesn't
matter much. He is quite young enough-and old
enough-to be one of the very best newspaper men
in Georgia today.
