Official Organ Oitv or Tifton and Tift County, Georgia ^ And the Georgia Legislature meets [^ ^»ext Wednesday. Not all the afflic tions that visit us come forewarned. ; Now watch the men who make politics a profession and always en- ] deavor to get on the winning side, Upin tlieir frantic efforts to change horses. The principal things of interest before the Btate General Assembly, 'which convenes next week, will be - the convict lease question and the dismissal of Railroad Commissioner Brown. There is not the most re mote possibility of an amendment of the present prohibition law, except by friends of the measure. As usual some one will propose extending the state road to the sea, but if it reach es every town that asks for it, the extension must have as many legs as the centipede. Jacksonville, Fla. even named as an objective point. The first accounts sent out on the day after the Georgia primary that the entire state delegation to Con gress had been returned were incor rect. In the Third district, Hughes defeated Lewis. In the light of events which occurred three days before the primary, we feel impel led to congratulate the people of the Third on the defeat of Lewis and to pity them on the nomination of Hughes. To one who loves common bonesty, there is but little difference between a corruptor of the ballot- box and a receiver of stolen good: If what both charge are true, both men should represent the people -of the Third in prison instead of Congress. The pardoning of Caleb Powers and Jim Howard last Saturday was a foregone event since the election of a Republican governor in Ken tucky. For eight years they haivo been m prison Charced with the -as sassination of Governor Goebel, and the evidence against them on the day of their release was perhaps even a little stronger than it was the day they were incarcerated. But criminality in Kentucky appears largely a matter of politics. A Dem- , ocrat was assassinated, hence Demo crats must prosecute those accused of his murder and Republicans seize the first opportunity to pardon them. To us it should make little difference but one is led to wonder how long the old Blue Grass state can stand this sort of thing. Tifton, even more than the bal ance of the state, has had a surfeit of politics. Every contest, local, state or national, in which bitterness crops out, hurts business, and many ©f Tifton's business men have allow «d politics to interfere too much in their commercial affairs. City, coun ty and state are fairly well governed, and just now Tifton needs the service of every able man in main tail ing her commercial supremacy and desirability as a business location, bet’s drop politics for awhile. Turn your back on the next man that men tions them to you and if that don’t stop him, throw him into one of the sewer excavations. Let us get about something useful, something which has dollars in it. If Tifton’s citizens allow themselves to be aligned into two or three warring factions, they will end by cutting each other's com mercial throats and there will be houses in plenty to rent before marry more years. United, we have noth ing to fear from anyone; split into j factions we will add ourselves to our I With the death of Mrs. Nettie C. Hall, in Fitzgerald Sunday last, a veteran newspaper woman and one of the most noble women whom South Georgia has been fortunate enough to have as a citizen in many years, has passed to her reward. Mrs. Hall came to Fitzgerald with the colony in 1895, and established a newspaper, The Enterprise. She was a leading Christian temperanc? woman, and while temperance had but a small showing' in the early days of the Colony, with the- cosmo politan citizenship which first popu lated the Colony city, there was am ple opportunity for good Christian temperance work, and on this oppor tunity Mrs. Hall rose to the occasion and performed her duty well. Truly can she say, she fought a good fight and kept the faith, and the moral standard of Fitzgerald today can be in part attributed to this persevering and noble woman. Her only son was a railroad man and was killed while in the performance of his duty, and probably owing to this her heart turned to the railroad men and their work and no person was better known to them in Fitzgerald, than “Mother Enterprise,” as she was lovingly called. The railroad men in Fitzgerald requested of her adopt ed son the privilege of conducting her funeral and it was the largest attended and one of the most note worthy held in Fitzgerald in many years. The Eastern Star, of which she was a member, and the local W. C. T. U. also took part in paying the last tribute to one whom all had known to love. Mrs. Hall was 08 years of age and is survived by two adopted sons, Trueman Hall, of Fitzgerald, and John Brewer, of Thelma, Washington. She was born in Kentucky and her maiden name was Miss Nettie C. Crabb. She was twice married, her first husband be ing Mr. Wiems, a union veteran, and her last husband, Mr. Cleveland T. Hall. She resided for some time in Indiana, moving from there to South Dakota, aid came to Georgia when the Colony was organized in 1895. Some of her best newspaper work has been done in this state, she hav ing been associated nearly all of its ■life with tAie Enterprise, but for a short while before her death, with the Fitzgerald Leader. FORMAL DEDICATION. CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE Melon and Truck Shipment*. Fifteen years ago, Tifton was shipping flae first peaches from Georgia, beating all other sections of the state by from ten to fifteen days, and this was kept up for many years. Gradually, however, as the price of lumber increased, and naval stores und cotton became more profitable, lees attention was given to peach culture as well as truck growing, the orchards were allowed to he ruined .by insects, and nearly all of the trees have been cut down and the land devoted to farming. Considerable truck has been raised here every year., but principally for eloquent plea for the maintenance and the multiplication of the churches 1 of the world After hia sermon, he took up a collection for the expenses of build ing the church, and the sum of $4,800 was donated. At night an other collection was taken up, and the sum increased to something con siderably over $5,000. Dr. Jameson started off by solici ting contributions of $1,000, of which only one was made, that of Mr. H. H. Tift. Next Mr. W. W. Timmons, W. W. Banks, and J. B. Murrow each gave $500. No one responded to the $.'100 request, but to those of $200, Mrs. J. J. L. Phillips contributed and then what was one of the most remarkable con tributions was $200 given by Wong Lee, Tifton’s Chinese laundryman, who is a regular attendant at Sun- lay school and whose predecessor, Joe Gong, is a member of the Bap tist church. Following these contributions were eight of $100 each, several of $50, several of $25 and many more of $10 and $5, making the total amount mentioned. It is only just to the membership to say that they had already given liberally, and $2,500 was raised last week. In Sunday’s contribuiions, Methodists and all denominations joined Rev. W. W. Webb led in the dedi- catorial prayer. Rev. Mr. Webb came to this section thirty-three years ago when this was almost a wiregrass wilderness and has since been doing pioneer work for the Missionary Baptist church in this part of the state, being one of the most potent factors in its progress, and his selection on this occasion was eminently proper. He has the appearance as well as the record of a patriarch, and has richly earned what his magnificence stature, flow ing beard and striking presence well denominates the title, of a father in Israel. His name should be inscrib ed as one of the pioneers of Mission ary Baptist work in Wiregrass Georgia. Then came the formal dedication, a ceremony as striking as it was im pressive. The words were first read and then led by Pastor Miller, and following him pronounced by lhe| congregation. This ceremony had been witnessed only once before in Tifton, when the old Baptist church building was dedicated by Pastor Frederic T ■Snell. An organ recital by Miss McCrea, -in the afternoon, and the evening service were both largely attended. At the latter. Dr. Jameson preach ed one of his soul-stirring sermons, and the singing, as at the morning sorvice, was very fine. All praise is due the choir for its sweet music and excellent rendition “Th. Subsidized Press.” When a campaign spieler wants to excite sympathy for the candidate or the cause in whose interest he is bestirring himself, he makes fre quent reference to "the subsidized press.” Defeated candidates for public office who have been long on claims before election but short of votes at the polls find a world of comfort in laying their defeat to this puissant “subsidized press.” They don’t have to be specific, and seldom are. Newspapers are pub lished wherever there is civilization, and the defeated candidate railing at hostile newspapers can train the batteries of his indignation im partially upon unprotesting victims in every quarter of the globe. No one will be so foolish as to say that there have not been and will not continue to be cases of news paper subsidizing. There are news papers in this as in Europen coun tries, that are owned outright by interests opposed to the public weal, and the mission of such journals is to influence public opinion in favor of those things which they are main tained to promote. But on the whole the press—and particularly the press of the United States-is wholly independent. It bows the knee to no set of men and fights for no cause which it does not believe to be good. The average editor is an unselfish patriot. He not for sale, and his opinions are of his own making. He fights in the open for those principles which he believes to be good and against those he considers evil, and he asks no higher reward than the satisfaction born of knowledge of duty well per formed. He sells his space and his paper, but never his convictions. For what he receives he gives full value in honest service. Herein is the secret of the power of the American press. The people know it is not subsidized. They may disagree with an editor, but they know that the editor is honest in ad vocating a cause or supporting a candidate, and respect him accord ingly. The man who sneeringly alludes to "a subsidized press” sub jects himself to the suspicion that he has been disappointed in his efforts to buy its support for his own pet: projects.—Albany Herald.

These copies were placed in the moils yesterday at Thomasville and by this time are in the hands of most :f the district committeemen. Mr. Uoddenbery gives in detail a trans cript of the record of his expenses for the campaign. It appears that • he spent $4,240.55 for legitimate cam paign expenses. This is more than double the cost of Representative Griggs’ campaign, who spent as shown in his report to the district executive committee, which was pub lished in last Thursday’s Herald, $1,778.56.

W. Hogan’s, ate a fish supper and chatted about things in general and after a fine, restful sleep, arose next morning and took in the farm, apple, plum and peach orchard and was ready for a fish breakfast. After these social repasts, we rig ged up a two and a one-horse wagon and were soon troubling the fish tribe in Alapaha river and by noon enough had been caught to feed about sixty persons and enough Jeft over to bring home to three fish hun gry families, each claiming to have enough. I claim no honor myself for I did not catch more than twenty pounds. Messrs. Hogan and Dixon, who were so interested in a hungry paper man and have hearts open and generous enough to be missionaries are to be credited for this supply and day of great enjoyment. The manager may have to adver tise for his reporter soon and if some bow-legged,one-eyed detective wants an easy find; go over to Alap&ha river, near Rebecca, where there are fish and a lot of good, clever folks who have open doors and hearts.
