The public is familiar with John Temple Graves’ recent fight for his rights aga'nst Corporate
Control secretly fastened upon the paper he has worked so hard to build up.
The people of the South do not need to be reminded of the principles for which IVIr. Graves.bas
stood unvaryingly during his editorial and public life. Nor to be assured that these pinciples will be
consistently maintained so long as he has a pen to write or a tongue to speak them.
Because he believed he could no longer maintain the liberty and integrity of his convictions in
the relations which have heretofore surrounded him, Mr. Graves has, at the sacrifice : of his entire
investment, cut loose from that environment, and will find henceforth in the columns of * OHE
< iUOKCJAN, a field win re his spirit and his principles will have free and unhindered course to cliam
i ion the cause of the people, and to stand for the Truth, Justice and Moderation which are repCes
en'ed In the seal of our great State, anil in th» n; me which we have chosen for our paper.
Mr. Frederick L. Seely, the president and financial manager of this paper, coming from the
ebulnem state, Missouri, has been for a number of years a resident of Atlanta, and is one of the
largest owners of its real estate. He has no private ends to serve in this iriVestment, being abso
lutely free of political or social aspirations. His single object is to build up a great and noble nokvs
paper in which his philanthropy and his conscienc ' will be satisfied in the discharge of great pulilic
duties, and in which his business judgment will be vindicated by a successful and profitable enter
prise.
Added to the popularity of the editorial png. . it is Mr. Seely’s full intention to give the public
a paper whose service and scope of news will not be surpassed and scarcely equalled by any of its
competitors. With a private leased wire running into the office from Washington and New York and
under absolute control of the paper from 7 a. m. to 5 p. m., the news of the world, as it Hows into
the metropolis and capital of the country will be promptly repeated to our machines and The Geor
gian will be as notable in the scope and completeness of its news service, as in the strength and
beauty of its editorial pages.
For the rest we say without boasting, that The Georgian will enter the field of journalism
with larger financial backing, and a more complete equipment than has ever been enjoyed by any
new newspaper enterprise Lunched in the South.
We have no stockholders and no directors beyond ourselves. We cannot be bought. We can
not be bribed, and we cannot be divided. We know each other carefully. We trust each other im
plicitly, and we have faith unbounded in the people whom we seek to serve.
We are going to try to build up a great, brave, honest newspaper, which all true men and all
good women can welcome as a wholesome and inspiring visitor to their homes and to tneir children.
Will the people who have touched us so deeply by the multitude of their recent kind expressions
help us by their patronage to usefulness and success?
