Subscribe for the Enterprise, Citizen and Voter is With the Enterprise. The following letter addressed to the citizens of Camilla and to the city council especially, is in lino with the Enterprise on some .measures that it has been advocating: To ALL CITIZENS OF CAMILLA and to the City Council Especially : The writer has been a citizen of your town and county for about twelve years, and has in¬ vested in a home here where he expects to spend the remaining years of his life irt Camilla there¬ fore, from a selfish view of the question, it is but natural that 1 should advocate those things, that, in my judgement, will be beneficial to the town, for what benefits Camilla, benefits me and every other property ovner, whether his holdings be great or small. The appeal that the Enterprise has been making in the interest of a well laid off town, is right. It is clear to the eye of any one who "will look around, that Ca¬ milla is a long way behind the times in the matter of progress. She needs more streets opened up; this is a matter for the mu¬ nicipal authorities to considei as well as that of cleaning up and straightening out the few streets we already have and the clean¬ ing out and opening the drain ditches and sewers of the town. This will give the town a . neat and clean appearance, which wii! be inviting to the prospector and home seeker. The next question to consider is one that should interest every property owner in Camilla, and especially those who have holdings in lands within the in corporation. Gentlemen, survey off your lands into blocks amt lots to conform with the streets of the town and then put them on the market at prices within reach of the average home seeker with moderate means. Another matter that should in¬ terest the town authorities and and citizens generally and that is the question of cleaning up our cemetery and putting our city of the dead in a clean and presenta¬ ble shape, which wdl show to the public that we revere the memory of-eur honored dead and have a care for their last resting place. Now, fellow citizens the way that towns and cities are built its by concert of action on the part of those who compose its citizen¬ ship, all pulling together for one common purpose, and if we have Camilla’s interest, (which is our interest) at heart, (he first thing for us to do is to get our town in* to a neat, inviting shape, and then offer bui'ding lots for actual settlers, at low andinvitingpricea. Tnen let us invest our surplus money’s in manufacturing enter¬ prises such as will give employ¬ ment to the un-employed, and will be a magnet that will draw outside capital to ourtown. The man or town that sits down and waits for something to turn up never succeeds. It is the man, or body of men, who put their ef¬ forts to work to turn something up that accomplishes the great things of life. A new raihoad for Camilla has been the talk for some time, but if we sit down and wait for U to come to us uninvited and unaided we may find ourselves badly left. There is a strong probability that this road will be built, but if we secure it we must encourage it with words, works and means. That it will be of great benefit to the town every one will admit. It will invite manufactures, fur¬ nish employment, create more demand for farm products and increase trade in every line. Let us wake up from our long, lazy sleep, straighten and widen our old streets, open up new ones, lay off our vacant lands into building lots and put them on the market at reasonable prices. Let us show our public spirit by our public enterprise in things that tend to the progress and ad¬ vancement of our town. Citizen and Voter. Higher Than Haman. You will agree with me trie above proposition is because after the hanging, Ha¬ man was right there all the same. But when you remove the tarnish and stain from your silverware, jewelry, glass, paint, etc-, with Imperial Polishing Powder, tarnish and stain is not to found anywhere, so you see knocks it so high it can’t found. You can polish up silverware, jewelr.y, etc.i nice as new in a few only a trial and you wouldn’t without it for twice the price. One gross just received, only a box, at C. L.

Week before last the Camilla boys went over to Sylvester for a game of ball which resulted in a defeat for Camilla of 5 to 0, and on yesterday morning the Sylvester boys arrived in Camil¬ la on the morning train, booked for two games, one in the fore noon and one in the afternoon. The game in the forenoon was called at about 9.30 for seven in* rings with the following lineup: Camilla - - Sylvester Butler 1 f Gaul den c f Clarke s s Gordon c Einstein.2 b Henderson 1 f Butler c Walker s s Turner cf Williams 3 b Ooichman 3 b Tipton 2 b Cox r f Austin p Smalley 1 b Forehand lb Roles p Short r f At the close of the 7th inning the game went to Camilla on a score of 10 to 5. The forenoon game was full of interest and had it not been for the unpleasantness which occurr¬ ed between some of the specta¬ tors, which came near resulting seriously, the morning’s enter¬ tainment would have been one of pleasure only. The afternoon game was called at about 3:30 with the following lineup. Camilla Sylvester Butler, Robt 1 f Gordon c Clark s s Gaulden 1 f Einstein 2 b Williams 3 b Butler, C M 1 b Short r fj Turner p Tipton p Coachman 3 b Walker s s Cox r 1 Forehand c f Smalley c Henderson 1b Roles c f Austin 2 b The game was called at the close of t-ha 5th inning with a score of 15 to 1 in favor of Ca milla. The Sylvester boys departed for home on the 6 o’clock train pleased with their entertainment, hut hacked with their fall down on the games played. The two negroes who murder¬ ed and burned the Hodges fami¬ ly near Statesboro, after trial and conviction, were taken- from the civil and military guards and burned at the stake. It is said that the soldier- boys were in¬ structed not to shed blood in trying to protect the prisoners and that their guns were not even loaded- The governor has ordered an investigation of the military guards, with Col. W. E. Wooten as president of the court of inquiry.
