WRANGLE PROBABLE
ON PRIMARY PLAN
A clash between the city council and
the city executive committee for the
control nf primaries seem* Inevitable.
The developments of the last few
days would Indicate that council la go
ing to make effort* to acquire some, if
not practlrnlly all, of the authority now
belonging to the executive committee
In the regulating of city primaries.
Several members of council are now
advising with City Attorney Mayson
looking to the adoption of a resolution
asking the legislature to give council
authority to govern and regulate pri
maries In the cltjs of Atlanta.
The regulation of city-primarle* tt
now In the hand* of the city executive
committee. City Attorney Mayson ha*
already drawn up n resolution request
ing the legislature to provide for the
election of aldermen by wurds. a» coun
cil are now ejected, another authority
which has belonged to the executive
committee.
The men'iWrx of tne general council
who wish to take this authority from
the committee. It Is stated, are not sat
isfied with this resolution—It Is not
sweeping enough.
They want the legislature to give
council the authority to make any and
all regulations It sees (tt to govern
primaries. Then council can order
that aldermen be elected by wards If tt
Is thought best, and other changes o'
the present rules governing the hold
Ing of primaries In Atlanta may be
made.
"8uch an ordinance," stated Council
man Terrell, chairman of the ordinance
committee, "was to have come up ba,
fore the ordinance committee Tuesday,
but It hud not been drawn up In the
shape we wanted It. The committee
will consider It at a later session.
"This does not contemplate taking
from the city executive committee a'l
the power ll now has. It merely al
lows council to make whatever regula
tions It wishes, without havlr.-j to beg
the committee to do anything."

Special to The Georgian.
Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 13.—Joseph
E. Bowman, a negro of Jacksonville,
was arraigned before Justice of the
Peace E. K. Willard yesterday to an
swer the charge of obtaining money
under false pretenses by producing an
allered bogus decree of divorce to Mr*.
J. J. Lrk-khnrt, of Atlanta. Oa. The
arrest of Bowman has disclosed a very
mtxed-up matrimonial affair. In that
Mrs. Lockhart ha:, married ihnrlea H.
Wolfram, of Jacksonville, and through
the alleged fraud of Bowman, ahe has
unknowingly committed blgniny and
her marriage to Wolfram Is Illegal.
Bowman wtlved examination and gave
bond In the sum of 11,000.
Mr*. Lockhart and Wolfram are
white people, but state that they were
united In marriage In Jacksonville by
Bav. L. B. Ellison, a negro preacher,
on January 21.
The marriage records show that Wol.
tram is a minister of the gospel and a
native of Ohio, and Mrs. Lockhart.
Lynn P. Coursey. a native of Geor
gia, claiming Atlanta as her former
place of residence, and her age as 2*
years.

EVERY MINUTE
NIGHT AND DAY
OUR OIL WB1 IS GETTING
NEARER TO THE OIL
FORMATION
-r- r
The officer* of the company removod to Savannah ao aa to be ready to more conveniently handle tha oil
that w III flow from the first oil well In Oeorgla.
STOCK NOW SELLING At 40 CENTS.
The block of stock offered at 25 cents was over-subscribed to the exteift of over 17,000 ahares on February
I. and ut the meeting nf the Board of Directors held that day It wax decided to offer another small block at 40
cents per share, pending th* completion of our first well, when alt stock will be taken off th* market and no
more said to any one until the stockholders of record on that date shall have had an opportunity to purchaa*. In
view of the fact that the former Issue was so largely over-subscribed, therefore, we do not expect this pr
block to last many days. If It continues to go at the rate It has bean purchased by the old stockholders
those who could not get what they wanted at the old figure, we know the present small block of 40-cent stock wilt
hot last beyond the present week. $8 * ,
THE OPPORTUNITY OP A LIFETIME.
Even If you were not fortunate enough to secure some of this stock at 25 esnta. you now have th* opportuni
ty nr your lifetime to get It at 40 rents and make all the money from your luveatment that you could , wish to
make. From 40 It Is going to 76. then to 11.00, and then when oil Is struck skyward* 15,00.
210. 850; there la no telling where the limit will be. With over 12,000 acres nf oil Isases behind us; with th*
control of 100,000 acre* additional; with the assurance from eminent chemists that our oil la the bast to be found
In this country; with but 20 miles between our properties and Savannah—th* market of the world—this company
certainly seems destined to become the greatest independent nil producing company In tha country.
With th* view of such enormous returns before you, why ran you not afford to speculate along with us and
several hundreds of conservative Georgians for the betterment of the state and Atlanta and your pocket-book?
We assure you It la a speculation: we assure you also that It Is a speculation only so far aa the presence of oil
In commercial quantities Is concerned, and not In reference to the manner In which your money will be used.
That will go Into the development of the properties. Tou will get a square deal and a chance at Immense
profflx. We have every reasonable aaxurane* that the oil I* there—a half hundred or more people have told ns
that—geologists, chemists, oil men and Georgians It you want to Join us In this great enterprise, let us have
your application for stock at once. Many were left on the 2S-cent stock because they put off sending In their
order*. .
EXPENDING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS.
This stock la worth more today than It has ever been worth. The deeper this flrat well of ours goes the more
valuable does the stock become. With tht well one-fourth completed and with many thousands of dollars' worth
of material, machinery, etex on our properties with the element of risk of our never becoming strong enough to
go ahead with our work removed, we have assumed a definite shape In the eyas of tha community ana are now Jn
form to go ahead aggressively and get the oil from our vast properties. We have tha capital and the energy.
We believe there ean be-no reasonable question that the oil 4s thsre. so that all that la between us and the won-
derful profits which we all expect Is time. This ws are eliminating aa rapidly aa possible, and within the next
la a "Real Gusher;" then you will regret th* fact that
ten days we hope to announce to the public that this well
block of stock the company Is now offering at 40 cents per share will all be taken Inside of the next seven days;
