SMITH SECRETARY!
After many speeches, no little heated
argument and thirty-six ballots, W. Z.
Smith, who for twelve years has been
connected with the city waterworks de
partment In different capacities,
elected secretary of the department, to
succeed William Dlmmock, deceased,
at the regular meeting of the water
board Wednesday afternoon.
From start to finish the outcome of
the election was looked forward to with
the greatest Interest. Two things were
positively proved by the outcome of
the race—Atlanta won't stand for cut
and dried political deals—and the oth
er—civil service Is gaining In strength.
The first bajlot was:
For Smith—Stocks, Dorsey, Wood
ward, Harwell. For Kilpatrick—Dun
can, Turner, McCullough, Pace, Rice,
For Lake—Lake.
The last ballot was:
For Smith—Dorsey, Duncan, Turner,
Pace, Rice. Woodward, Harwell. For
Lake—Stocks, Lake, McCullough.
The first ballot showed things were
evenly divided. There were live com
mlsslnners for electing an “outsider"
and five for the civil service idea.
Throughout the long afternoon the
votes were vnrled. w. W. Draper, ex-
Alderman LaHatte, B. L. Hearn. O. O.
Hannah and others of the candidates
were voted for. ,
Because of a difference of opinion
among the commissioners the city at
torney was sent for and handed It
opinion on the eligibility of several of
the candidates. It was unanimously
decided that Councilman Draper was
not eligible for the oflice. But the real
light came when some of the commis
sioners claimed that Saxe and Smith
wore not eligible. City Attorney May-
son would not say whether they were
or were not. In his opinion. The opin
ion he handed down leaned that way,
however, it was based along the line
that no ode holding a city position, who
had been elected to the office for a
stipulated length of time, was eligible
for other offleo until the term of the
