Merchant-Jailors, Chi cago, 111 THE ENTERPRISE Deports the Situation ! . / ___ Buttonwillow, Cal., Aug. 29. 1912. • Editor, ENTERPRISE, Dear Sir: — , It is with unspeakable hor ror that I read in your columns of Aug. 16th. of the terrible tragedy in which my father was so nnfor t tunate as to be the principal figure. Your editorial which appeared in the same issue, gave me a great . deal of relief—it was tempered with kindness and sympathy for those who are now suffering for the mis \ deeds of others, and it was a bull's eye score delivered in no uncertain manner at the ones actually re?pon ! sible for the act of my father, who had to take a life to Bave his own. Without a doubt, they are .the mercenary, gold-grabbing, law defying ''human Logs" (apologize to the hogs) that infest Williams > ton and raise a stench with their "blind tigers" which reaches to heaven. They live and grow fat on the money that was the price of somebody's blo?d and immortal tbey live and move iu respec table circles,and the sniveling, cold blooded devils use even the Church to cloak their sins and make them appear respectable. Yet how many cf them are willing to heed the cry of the widow and orphan for bread? This is history repeating itself and is another tragedy added to those already committed iu Martin County, and it would take the fin gers of two pairs of hand to count them. Little did I think that the far-reaching influence of whiekty would ever BO directly effect mj *!lue aud the ones that I love, al though it is long since I learned that it is no respecter of perionl. How long «re you law-abiding, christian men and women of Mar tin County going to allow these "blind tigers" to run at lafrge" Bengals are deadly to the body, but thsy destroy the so'ikl alio. Would to God that the vdtH was in the hands of the women tf*\be South for.then these would h*.ve to change tactffcs. You have law* Against the sale of liquor and 'yon bave officials sworn to enforce the law aud the people of Martia Connty should gee th& the lews are enforced. should blot out this nefarious btftiness which makes it necessary 1 for old grey-haired men to use pow der and ball to protect their lives and those dependant upon them. Please publish thin as an "open letter" in the next issue of THE ENTERPRISE, and oblige. - Yours for Bettter Goverment, Jesse S. Whitley. L T. L.

A Menace to Wilson Among the thirty Senators whose terms expire uext fourth of March, the one Democrat who conspicuous ly deserves defeat (next to Bailey of Texas, who saw the handwriting and declined to entrust bis reputa ' tion to a campaign) is Simmons of North Carolina.
