Revolt against a proposed three per cent tax .cm freight transportation charges continues to grow and a party caucus has been demanded.

Woodward Is to elected mayor of Atlanta next Wed nesday without a candidate opposing him. ’Jim” Woodward was mayor for two terms a number of years ago. He was a remakable good executive always. His worst enemies found nothing amiss with his official record. But was given to looking on the boose when It was red, and sometimes drew upon his head the denunciations of many citizens.

They all said Jim Woodward was politlcall dead after that. But he ran two years ago, was elected easily, has made a good mayor all this time, has kept straight, won the friendship and respect of the whole city, and now goes In for another term with no man willing to run against him. The only hard luck the mayor has had recently was the rebuilding Govan's clgarstore on Peachtree street and Govan's moving away. Mayor Jim's early morning office had been on the sidewalk in front of -that cigar store for years and years. There he received his friends, there he con ducted his campaigns. But there 1 another business In the shop now and Mayor Jim has no place to stand when he Is sway from his desk. It takes s pretty prominent man to make us believe that his laziness really dignity.
