KNOCK ’EM; JUMP OX ’EM.
The Thomasville Tlmes-Enterprise
seems to be having some trouble
with some of the citizens of Thom
asville who are urging the Times-
Enterprise to “go after" some om-
cials, but who are ready to stand
baik when it comes time for them
to lake their pla.e in the iirinj
line.
Thomasville is no exception in
this matter, in fact, the same con
ditions prevail throughout the coun
try. There are always plenty of
people who want the newspapers to
pull their chestnuts out of the fire.
And we wonder why it is.
We do not believe in knocking
and jumping on everything in sight.

All newspapers are glad to keep
posted on current events and the
workings of everything that is of In
terest to the people and when the
paper sees that something Is wrong,
and has, after investigation, found
the condition to bo wrong, it is then
time to do the jumping.
A newspaper which is free, un
trammelled and unmuzzled, and
which has not been bought out,
knows when to Jump and It will in
variably do It and a newspaper of
this class will not persecute or nag
at anybody or anything to indulge
