The oppo sition to private ownership appeared to be so overwhelming that the mayor and council called the election oft a few dayB before the time. WASN’T BROAD ENOUGH. Tho whole trouble seemed to be, aa gathered at the time from the almost unanimous expressions of the opposi tion, that the great majority of the people were In favor of sewerage, pro vided the municipality would own and operate the waterworks In connection with them: otherwise, they were op posed to It. They said that If the city owned the sewers the city should also own the water; otherwise, the city would be putting Itself In a position where It would be compelled to have water, thereby placing Itself at the mercy of the private corporation, which had a monopoly of the water. Granting that the city could have made a satisfactory contract with the Geor gia Manufacturing and Public Service Company for water to flush the sewers, they argued, the profits of the busi ness which must necessarily come out of the pockets of the people could be saved to them by municipal ownership of the water. In obedience to this demand of pub lic sentiment, the mayor and council have called an election for tomorrow, as stated above, and the fight for wa-_ terworks and sewerage owned and op erated by the city Is on. It Is now up to the people to settle this Important matter, and to say by their votes whether or not these Improvements, which are freely conceded to be no nec essary to the progress and upbuilding of the city, shall be a glorious reality or a shameful failure. WHAT THE RESULT MEANS. The result will determine whether or not the city shall own Ita own water works and sewerage system, thereby putting Marietta among the most pro gressive cities of the country and In suring first-class sanitary conditions, also securing first-class protection and efficiency in cases of fire, or whether the city shall continue subservient to a private corporation, with insufficient water supply and no sewerage system, thereby endangering the health and lives of Its etttsens. The election will be decisive, as the last legislature authorised the Issuance of 180,000 of water bonds and 130,000 of sewerage bonds. The election to morrow Is called for the purpose of passing upon these bonds. To carry 448 votea must be polled favoring the proposition, or two-thlrde of the total vote cast for mayor in last election. CORPORATION MAKES FIGHT. The present waterworks Is owned by the Georgia Manufacturing and Public Service Company, and the officials and friends of that company are making a vigorous and strenuous campaign against the Issuance of bond*, claim ing the passage means .increased taxa tion on the laboring classes. The friends of the measure nre trying to show that the passage means not only a healthier city, but that the water works plant will in a few years not only pay the bonds, but will be a source of handsome Income to the city, which if not needed to Increase ond Improve the plant, can be diverted to extend ing and Improving other city property, schools, etc. Should the bonds carry. It is proba ble that tho city will make the Geor gia Manufacturing and Public Service Company a fair offer for their plant, and If accepted, Improve It to a degree that will insure ample protection In case of fires and mid sewerage. Should the bonds be secured, there IS no doubt that Marietta’s population would noon be doubled In numbers anu the city would be greatly benefited and Improved. Among the Improvements promised Is a $50,000 hotel. The following are some of the views of The Marietta Journal and leading citi zens regarding municipal ownership; THE MARIETTA JOURNAL. The Marietta Journal says: “The importance of securing two- thirds of the registered voters In favor of these measures is urgent. Marietta can not lag In providing for waterworks The present water- and you can not make that point too strong for me. The city Is now paying enough rent each year to a private concern for water to almost pay the Interest on the amount of bonds neces sary to build the waterworks. The san itary condition of the town Is some thing fierce, nnd we seem to have reached the point where we are com pelled to have eewers. ,u J. E. DOBBS. J. E. Dobbs, warehouseman nnd grain dealer, said: “I am strongly In favor of the bonds. I think the people will make a great mistake If they allow this movement to fall. I understand that some who are In favor of private ownership of water are going to vote for sewers and against waterworks, and thus defeat the municipal ownership Idea. I do not know If this Is true or not, but for fear that It Is I expect to vote for waterworks and against sow- era.- I will head off at least one of them.’’ HARRY HAYNES. Harry Haynes, a prominent business man of Marietta, made the following statement: "I am heartily In favor of municipal ownership of waterworks and electric lights. It Is not a question of sentiment with me. but an absolute necessity and a sound business propo sition.” , LAKE SMITH. Lake Smith, a prominent business man of Atlanta: “The water question Is a rather lore point with me. I built a new home within four blocks of the court house on a residence street that Is building up on both sides and In or der to get water I had to Invest some thing over $50 In a water main, and am practically without firs protection. I am heartily In favor of better water service and hotter sewerage In Mariet ta. It Is a fact that a great many peo ple would build homes In Marietta if they could get water faclllttea and sewer connections. The two are In separable." DR. C. T. NOLAN. Dr. C. T. Nolan, one of the leading physicians of the city. Is enthusiastic In his support of the bonds. When approached about the matter he said: "Marietta is badly In need of a sewer age system, and I think It would be a very unfortunate thing for this town should the bonds to be Issued for sew erage be defeated. I am also In favor of the city owning its own water works." A wild-looking negro running down Whitehall street with over a hundred men and boye giving chase caused con siderable excitement on that thorough fare nbout 11 o'clock Friday morning. The negro had a large open knife In his hand ami pedestrians gave him right-of-way without argument. He was captured near the office of Robson & Rivers, on Alabama, between White hall and Broad streets, by former Po liceman Newt Heard and Patrolman 'Dobbs. The negro gave his name ns Oscar Wyatt.

SACREDNESS OF MARRIAGE POPULAR STORE Smith A Higgins have recognized the popularity of The Georgian and have made It a drawing card for their business, as shown In their advertise ment in this Issue of The Georgian. Tho firm has for years offered at tractive premiums with purchases at their store. They have looked about them for something which would be an especial attraction and have decided upon The Georgian as one of the most alluring premiums they could offer. By LANDON CARTER. (Copyright, 1906, by Amerlcan-Journol Examiner.) "Two are better than one: because they have a good reward for their la bor. For If they fall the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him that la alona when he falleth, for he hath not another to help him up. And It one prevail against him, two shall withstand him, and a three-fold cord Is not quickly broken.”—Eccle siastes. In this practical age every relation ship In life—even the sacredness of marriage—seems to undergo public criticism, and when the material value and general "pros and cons" are by some weighed In the scales with love— and when to thoae distorted minds af fection Is apparently overbalanced, it la then too late to realise that there are sadder losses than death, and that to bury love or Its possible chances Is a much deeper sorrow than to bury a loved one—this latter ennobles life, whereas the former can only degrade. “Men do not gather grapes off thorns or figs off thistles," nslthsr Is there any compensation to be found for the hu man who feels that ths highest rela tionship of life has proven a failure and that the possibility of happiness has been suggested, but forever eclipsed. In connection with. criticism, how ever, at all tlmea and on all aubjecte. It has been, Is and will ever be Inevit able, and with the true and proper standards and with a just spirit em ployed, ths knowledge thus gained would be of Invaluable assistance In making nice distinctions, but when tho- outcome of marriage Is Judged by the common standards of material gains and general market values are placed upon sentiment, then. Indeed, must re sults prove disastrous. From the true standard of love It Is a divine mystery the way the human heart turns to one other one of all the world and makes It easier to overcome obstacles for that particular love than to accept all other forms of material luxury. "And Jacob served seven yeare for Rachel and they seemed to him but a few days for the love he had to her.” Such adoration la hardly distinguish able from religious feeling ond only upon such type of love as a foundation can marriage with any surety be based, for It Is the beginning of the home epic which colors every advancing year. It la strange that poets dwell so con tlnualty upon "first love” rather than that which comes from deeper rooted affections and the greater experiences which tenderly bind together the past and present with deep vibrations and In which one finds strength for every misfortune, for such love eases many paths and finds many entrances where gold could never gain admittance. Such love has a breath of poetry which has ower to ennoble every phase of life, ut to know this biggest love one hae to do more than ask or will, for life en tails suffering as the noblest means of purifying, and the higher life begins when pne learns to suffer and- sacri fice and bow before divine laws. Such may seem hard, but *t Is not true love that makes all things easy: It makes us choose what is difficult. Such Is the means of wisdom and happiness. That wisdom Is the religion of the Cross. Every deep feeling creates a consciousness of Its own, has Its own halo, and In proportion to the affection existing between man and wife comes the greatest power nnff defense. What greater thing Is thsrp for two human souls than to feel that they are Joined for life, to strengthen each other In all labor, to rsst on each other In all sor row, to minister to each other In all pain—and to be one with each other in silent unspeakable memories at tht last moment of the last parting!

Mr. Green Is a truly remarkabls man. He has a moot wonderful memory, never forgetting anything once seen or heard, and his mind readily runs back to events that happened when he was a lad of ten, and his brain Is a store house of events, both trivial and Impor tant, that have occurred In the last seventy-odd years. Hs attributes his wonderfully good health to his regular habits. He has always been strictly temperate, never using tobacco or whisky, nnd today he atands as a liv ing monument of a long and useful life well spent. , The dinner at which the genial host entertained his friends, surrounded, by his children and grandchildren, was a most elaborate and sumptuous repost, characteristic of ante-bellum days. It was prepared and served by old family servants, their children and grandchildren. The dining room was beautifully decorated In golden rod end ferns, while white rosee and asparagus ferns lent a “gracefill charm to the long table, set diagonally across the spacious dining room to afford room for the number seated around the board. A huge old-fashioned pound cake Illumi nated with eighty candles was placed before the happy tinst, when the cakes and less were served. In mellow old wine his health was drunk by all pres ent, with/ the wish that he might be spared to celebrate In the same way many more birthdays. Assisting Mr. Green In entertaining his guests were Ms daughters, Mrs. Annie Green Burden and Miss Rosa mond E. Green, of Bath, his son and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. L.

Dexter Into the negro compartment of the smoking car Is the reason for a damage suit against the Georgia railroad which will be filed In Decatur. Mrs. Dexter boarded the train Stone Mountain Tuesday afternoon, bringing with her a negro servant girl. Just after the train pulled out one of the train crew told her that the coach In which nhe was riding was no place for her. ond ordered her to follow him, she claims, and he led the way to the negro compartment. It was not until Mrs. Dexter had seen the negroes In the forward conch that she realised why the train hand had brought her there. It Is claimed thnt when she demanded an explana tion the trainman told her that she ought to have gone where she belonged In the first'place. Not until she had bitterly protested did the railroad em ployee who had conducted her forward realise his blunder. Mr. and Mrs. Dexter are very well known In Atlanta society.
