■MBIT 10 PH I—SOLID MAHOGANY' SIDEBOARDS -
With the unanimous and hearty In
dorsement of the council of 1904 the
citizens' proposition for the building of
an armory and an auditorium by the
city, was on Thursday afternoon com-1
mended to the council of 1907.
In compliance with Instructions from I
a committee of 25 citizens held at the
office of The Atlanta Journal Thurs
day morning. James R. Gray, 8am D.
Jones and Colonel Clifford L. Anderson
presented a plan whereby It Is pro-
posed to form a stock company of cit
izens which will build the armory aud
aell It to the city on easy terms.
Mr. Gray said that the plan for the
auditorium to seat 10,000 people nnd I
an armory for the state guard was the
outgrowth of a sentiment which hnd
been growing for several years nnd
which was brought to a head by the
troubles encountered In getting meet
ing places large enough for conventions
which will be In Atlanta this season I
and by the recent trouble when tho |
armory demand was so forcibly pre
sented.
Mr. Gray outlined the plan of the I
committee, which, In brief, Is this: To
organize a stock company, which will
Purchase a lot nnd attend to the erec
tion of the building. Being a public
building, the structure should.be owned
by the city and be non-tnxable. The
city had agreed to give 2250,000 to the
1910-exposition. This project had been I
laid on the shelf and the appropriation _
could be'profitably transferred to the •
armory nnd auditorium—175,000 down :©
and $25,000 per annum, until the pay ' -
ment Is finished.
Sam D. Jones, representing the I!
Chamber of Commerce, made a strong
and logical talk urging the Importance 11
of having a place for conventions to
meet, and the benefits whlctl conven
tlons bring.
Colonel Anderson urged the Impor
tance of the proposed structure from
the standpoint-of the military, which,
he said, could have been on the streets
two hours sooner during tho recent
rioting, had they had a suitable armory.
He said that during the disturbances
the boys of his regiment had to sleep
on the sidewalks with their blankets
as pillows.
Ho promised that If sleeping quar
ters could be provided at the armory
ho could arrange to have a company
on duty all the time, as many bachelor
members of the regiment would be glad
to have their rooms there.
The general council unanimously
adopted a resolution Introduced by Al
derman Qullllan nnd Councllmen Ellis
and Roberts, appointing a committee
of five hold-over members to co-oper
ate with a similar citizens’ committee
and resolving that "the need Is mani
fest and of ■ the greatest importance,
and that the council of 1906 heartily
recommends to the council of 1907 that
magnificent building be erected."
The council committee Is composed
of Aldermen Qullllan and Feters nnd
Councllmen Pomeroy, Martin and Han
cock.
