Secretary Phil Cook is sending out the election blanks for the re¬ turns of the general election which is to be held on Oct. 5th. The state ticket this year will be longer perhaps than any former state ticket as there are more than seventy-five names to be voted for, along with four consti¬ tutional amendments. Unless the Populists put out a state ticket, which is not at all ptobable, the Democrats will be the only candidates in the field. Only the Democratic party has notified Secretary Cook of its du¬ ly nominated candidates. In addition to the candidates for state offices the following constitutional amendments will be vo*ed upon: Amendment to article 7, sec¬ tion 1, (limiting advalorem tax to 5 mills.) Amendment to article 8, sec¬ tion 1. paragraph 1, (local taxa¬ tion for public schools.) Amendment to paragraph 1, section 3, articl s 3 (limiting the number of representatives to 183) Amendment to paragraph 2, section 1, article 11 (to make the number of counties in this state 145.) These amendments are to de¬ termine whether the tax rate shall forever be fixed at no high¬ er than 5 mills, whether or not the state shall have 145 counties instead of 137, whether the state shall have 183 members of the house instead of 175, and wheth¬ er the people cf the different school districts can vote for a lo¬ cal taxation for school purposes. The ticket with all the candi¬ dates for county offices will be more than a yard long. From An Exile To His Homefolks Richmond, Va., Sept. 3-04 Dear Enterprise:- Here I have been for more than two months in a cancer hospital, The afflic tion is an awful one and the remedies for most cancers is necessarily severe. I had tried three or four remedies at home without avail and was near despair, but I am now glad to hope that the favorable end is near. It turned out that there were three cancers on my lip and chin, the largest one being a very CamlUa, Ga„ Sept, o, lOO*. stubborn one. This and the sec or.d one have been out and the third, a very small one, has k lied, and will be out in a days. The doctor said to me yesterday, ‘‘you may write to your folks that you can home in two more weeks.” The Enterprise lias been a wel come visitor every week to my lonely room tn suffering. I hope everybody in Mitchell county will appreciate such a good paper. I was soi ry I couldn’t be at hoon the occasion of the death of Mrs. S. E. Cox, to tell what a noble good woman I knew her to beandthenm.v old friend, Mr. Matthew Pope, one of our oldest men has passed away from the southwestern part of the county. He was the last of the original of old Evergreen church. He led the simple life of a former, | and had many fine traits of char acter and was a most excellent citizen. Any sign of improvement in Camilla always gladdens my heart. What sort of an improve¬ ment is a barroom? Let the tears and shame and anguish of the drunkard’s poor wife answer. I can remember when we had bar rooms in the past long years ago. What a glorious change in the county generally was wrought when they were abolished by prohibition! How the county has prospered and the people im¬ proved none but the older citizens know, Well, here we are. The dispensary demoralized us and lowered the moral tone of the county.

I am ashamed of Mitchell county people burning white folks whiskey. God pity the citizen who doesn’t hang his head. J. L. Underwood. Pinecliff Dots. Aunt Jane wishes to thank School Girl for her congratula¬ tion. Would like to thank you in person sometime, School Girl. Rev. Burnette came and preach ed three very impressive ser¬ mons for us last Sunday night, Monday and Monday night. There was a large attendance Sunday night and Monday, but on account of rain and bad weath¬ er. there were only a few pres¬ ent Monday night. We were all glad to meet Rev. Burnette, and hope he will ccmeand preach for us again sometime in the rear future. Misses Janie Bette and Alice Burns Tharpe, of Thomasville, are visiting friends here this week. They will go to Camilla Saturday to spend the week with relatives before going home. Mr. Millard Wingate, of the Thomasville Business College, paid a visit to his parents last Saturday and Sunday. Mr. Wallace Cooper left Tues¬ day for a business trip to Flor¬ ida. The ice cream supper given by Mr. H. D. Culpepper, at his home, was a perfect success. The cream and cakes were de¬ licious. There was quite a large crowd present. Aunt Jane thinks tip dance after the sup¬ per was enjoyed as much as the supper. Messrs. John Perry anj Mor¬ ris Hall attended the ice cream supper at Mr. Culpepper's, Mr. John Smith and Miss Lucy Williford, of Bratvchville, atten¬ ded the ice cream supper. And what little girl was it, that said she wanted her name in the paper? Girls, before you ride much with the young men, who are such veck’ess drivers, and more especially at night, where there are three young girls and only one young man in one buggy. Aunt Jane thinks it would be ad¬ visable, to buy a pair of gold rimmed spectacles and a lighted lantern, and it might be best to let the horse use them for the benefit of those in the buggy. It might save the buggy from run¬ ning over a stump and the occu¬ pants from falling out. Oh, my! I do wonder what lias gotten the matter with so many of you girl’s fingers. It is always the third finger on the left hand. They surely must #1.00 a Year have been broken from the- wide new bands you have ou them. Mr. B, F. Ray and two little daughters of Pebble City, visited Mr. Ray’s mother-in-law, Mrs. Cooper, last Sunday. Messrs. Ben and Manson Mar¬ shall visited Mr. Wallace Cooper last Saturday and Sunday. The young people of this com¬ munity are anticipating: a jolly time at the “tackey” parly to be given at Mrs. L. J. Joiner’s Fri¬ day night. As School Girl says Dame Ru¬ mor has it, that wedding bells here will not always.be muffled, if what Aunt .Jane hears be true. Miss Taylor of Savannah, is visiting her sister, Mrs. Emory West. Mr Joe Kirbo ma»Ie a business trip to Albany this week. Mrs. Will FaircloVi and moth¬ er attended preaching at Pine cliff Monday.. Mr. and Mrs., Emory West at¬ tended preaching Sunday night. We are sorry to learn of the sickness of Mrs.. Muhin’s baby. Mr. Levy Collins has been quite sick, bat we are glad to say he is some, better. Aunt Jane. Estrayed. On July 9th, 1904, one dark, bay,, poay mare, with white spot in her face; about three years old. Took up at my place, seven miles west of Camilla. The owner can recover said pony by calling on me and paying for this adver¬ tisement and her feed. J. W. Pope.
