Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1909-01-02

News reached the family of Mr..
B. E. Wilcox this morning of the
sad death of his bright young
nephew, Mr.. Justin Wimberly, at
sshe home of his gra nd-parents at
Hawkinsville. Justin was mem
Der OF the Senior class of Gordon
Institute, GAINESVILLE, and was not
yet fifteen years of age. He was a
visitor here during the holidays,
and has host of friends here and
at Abbeville, his home town, who
will be shocked to learn of his
death. Pneumonia is thought to
have been his trouble, though moth
ing definite is known as yet.

Bowen Home Burned.

The old Bowen residence at Luz
laville was burned last night. The
house was vacant and uninsured,
and there is no explanation of the
origin of the fire. Certainly no
wretch would be mean enough to
90 and burn the building which,
although splendid house, was
me,ely a relic of the family that
deserted it nearly a year ago to
move to Fitzgerald. The blaze was
discovered about IL O'Clock by the
negroes in the neighborhood, and
one of them came Immediately to
Fitzgerald and notified Mr.. r. V.
Bowen, who, with DR.. Ware, went
to look at the ruins this morning.
They found no clue as to the origin
of the fire.

And Alabama is dry; thus the civilization of
the world is making progress. Information from
the various police and sherfs of the state is that
they are going to enforce the law to the letter;
III for Fitzgerald Pull Out.
Pleasant A. Stoval and the preachers of S.v
annah may in time bring that community t.
realization of its reputation as a awless people.
The election frauds notorious, that first n de
Savannah famous are largely matter of hist ry
and the elections are now conducted somewhat as
they are in OTHER cities in the state but the illegal
traffic in liquor not only disgraceful so far as
Savannah is concerned, but is blot on the state
We believe that remedy will be found and that
the traffic will be forced out of Savannah regardless
of local public sentiment which now protects the
criminals when the cases come before jury.
DR.. Ainsworth, a Methodist pastor Of that
city, one of tue best known preachers in the South
Georgia Conference, in a recently said that
he depored strongly the spirit of lawessness which
prevailed in the community saying that good citl-
obey and defy those which did not suit them. He
said Savannah's attitude in the state was causing
much comment and that it was resented. He de-
clared that there would be no back tracking in
prohibition by the legislature; that the people
would not give up the law which they clearly
wanted.

The Prohibition Law.
Ill fog fitzgerald or Pull Out.

ga blind man can see that prohibition has
benefited Georgia." Such was the words OF
South Georgia saw mill man who was an ex-
bar keeper and who was opposed to prohlbl
ton one year ago.
He said that labor was just twice as easy to
manage and more law abiding.
This seems to be the opinion of every unpreju-
diced person The keeping liquor out OF the
state has made soberer people already.
There are some blind tigers still in the state,
but there is greater number prejudiced
against them than formerly and we believe
they will be put out of business by the courts
in a short time or at least the greater part OF
them. There will always be some crime COM
mitted but we believe that the illegal sale OF
liquor will be more risky and less profitable
every year that passes.
Prohibition means that the bops of the future
will be sober men.-Cordele Rambler.

Thank God for the record OF
those early days in the history OF
our faith! Think back a little and
put yrurself in that little upper
room. where the friends Of Jesus
waited for his promise. Are you
one of the women in the group who
trusted in His word and continued
in prayer for His blessings The JOY
of the answer then is yours; ana az
this season when we set apart
week in which we shall give much
time to waiting upon God that He
may establish the WORK ofour hands
YOU will again meet Him in the
upper room, by faith let us be true
to the tradition of of christian Wo-
men from the first days of christi
anity until now and enter upon a
new year of victory which is won
not so much into the struggles we
shall facet as in the hours of quite
prayer at this the beginning OF 1909.
