Alderman Jamea B. Everett. tha
popular representative on the alder-
manlc board for the Eighth ward,
who la now offering for re-election
from the Fourth ward, on account of
change In ward, llnea, la one of the
heat known young bualneaa men In
the city. He baa been aecretary of
the Atlanta Fruit and Produce ex
change for aeveral yeara and la alao
naalatant aecretary of the Atlanta
Horae Show aeaoclatlon.
Mr. Everett'a career In the field of
polltlca haa not been of great length.
Prerloua to August, when he waa
elected to fill the unexplred term of
Mayor Pro Tern Charlea M. Roberta,
who reaigned the office to make hla
home In the Weat, he had never held
office, Hla opponent for the unex
plred term favored the commlaalon
form of government, and It waa the
atrenuoua oppoaltlon to thla Idea, to
gether with hla own popularity and
ability, that won for Mr. Everett the
place on the board of aldermen over
one of the clty’a moat prominent clt-
Izena.
He la not a politician. He haa ad
vanced no Ideaa with which he hopea
to win votca. He atlcka by the com
mon aenae Idea that the people want
a repreaentatlve who will do aome-
thlng, and he very modeefly points out
hla record to date, what he haa stood
for, and how. He haa alwaya been a
friend of labor unlona, and in one In
stance was a staunch supporter of the
Typographical union when a point In
volving the high standing of this un
ion was Involved. He supported pop
ular election of all city officials. He
believed that the will of the people da
expressed at the ballot box should pre
vail. He favors selling the city stockade
property. He Is against raising the tax
rate, and pledges himself to stand by
the bond ordinance funds not being
diverted. He opposes the location of
the crematory within the city llmlta.
He opposes dumping grounds being
located where they are a menace to
the health and property of Atlanta
citizens. He voted against the raise
In salary for the city councllmen and
aldermen. He favors tbe West Side
viaduct, and Is on that committee now.
He voted to raise' the pay of police
men and firemen, and he favors the
city furnishing them with uniforms
next year free of charge.
He believes In better school facilities
and better pay for school teachers.
He stands by hla Inclinations and
better Judgment, and his Inclination
and better Judgment have led him
heretofore to fight the battles of the
people, and his friends say that they
intend again honoring him with the
ofTIce as a reward for his post ef
ficient services, and because under the
old Democratic doctrine a faithful of
ficial la entitled to an Indorsement.
WALTER TAYLOR.
Walter Taylor, for city clerk, needs
little If any Introduction to the people
of Atlanta To most of the older resi
dents, and to all of the new, doubtless
his is one of the moat familiar faces.
He has been connected with The At
lanta Journal ever since this venture
was Inaugurated, and has served In
nearly all capacities on that paper since
thnt date. For eight years he waa city
editor, and for a period of ten years
at different times he was'city hall re
porter. It goes without saytng that in
these capacities on The Journal he haa
had opportunity to study conditions In
the city and to familiarise himself with
the exact manner In which the duties
of city clerk can best be attended to.
For two years Mr. Taylor was mem
ber and secretary of the park board of
the city. As secretary for the commit
tee getting up the celebration for the
Dewcy-Brumby party, he had In charge
all the details and attended to most of
the work, as was also the case when
Admiral Schley came to Atlanta.
He Is a son of J. Troup Taylor, who
for forty years was Journalizing clerk
for the state senate and house of rep
resentatives, alternating In that time
between the two. Mr. Taylor was
never opposed for either of these places,
a record never before achieved In Geor
gia.
On the ticket with Mr. Taylor are
five of Atlanta's successful men.
Joseph Fuld, who has been a resi
dent of the city for 25 yeara. haa been
with Bagley & Wlltet, the well known
Insurance men, for a period of eight
years, and waa with the New Tork Life
insurance Company for ten years.
For IS years he has been In the prod
uce business at the corner of Edge-
wood-ave. and Ivy-st.
George H. Sims, another member of
the ticket, la a former councilman,
serving two terms, and was a member
of the old firm of Sims Brothers.
Athel McClain Is with tho Forster
rlntlng Company and Is very popular.
Hammond Payne served a number of
years In the Atlanta postofflee. and Is
well equipped for office work, being
both a stenographer and bookkeeper,
an expert In either.
Another man on the ticket Is W.
Mayson Miller, who for many years
was conductor and baggagemaater on
'the Western and Atlantic railroad.
It goes without saylng-that the pop
ularity and fitness of Mr. Taylor and
his ticket will have great weight with
the people, and their friends say they
arc bound to win by a safe majority.
VI want It distinctly understood,"
says Mr. Taylor, "that our ticket Is In
the field on Its own merits and la not
affiliated In any way with any other
candidate."
e. e. Williams.
Hon. E. E. Williams, candidate for
city tax collector to succeed E. T.
Payne, who has held the office over six
teen years. Is one of Atlanta's most
successful business men. His business
career In this city covers a period of
twenty years, and for fourteen of these
he has been a wholesale produce and
commlaalon merchant. For eleven yeara
he has been at his present locatioir.on
Broad-st.
When Mr. Williams opposed Mr.
Payne for this office two years ago he
was defeated only by a small majority.
Since thnt time his friends say that
he haa gained strength with the people
and that now he Is practically certain
to go Into office.
Mr. Williams la well IIlied for dis
charging the duties of this important
office. In hla business It has been
necessary to mix with all classes of
people, and they have found him In
every sense of the word a man to whom
democracy of bearing Is the same as
breathing. He Is broad-minded and
practical, and will mak; a good officer.
Associated with Sir. Williams on hla
ticket will be found the names of two
of the most popular men In Atlanta,
who offer for the positions of deputy
tax collectors to Mr. Williams.
J. W. Kilpatrick, the older of these,
Is well known to Atlantans. He has
represented the Fourth ward on the al-
dermanlc board and on the water board,
and la now vice chairman of the police
commission. He haa made a good rec
ord, with which the people are In every
way familiar.
Frank F. Smith, the Junior deputy
candidate. Is a prominent member of
the Pressmen's union of Atlanta. Ho
has lived In Atlanta from boyhood and
numbers his friends by the hundreds.
He Is past great sachem of the Red
Men-of Georgia and a member of Odd
Fellows. Junior Order and Woodmen of
the World. .
In’view of the closer race he gave Mr.
Payne two yeara ago and his Increased
popularity, coupled with the strength of
the men -on his ticket, the friends of
Mr. Williams say that he Is going to bo
nominated by a large majority.
NASH R. BROYLES.
The friends of Judge Nash
Broyles, who Is a candidate to succeed
himself as city recorder, gain oonft
dence In his election as the final day
approaches. They' point to his enria
ble record as police magistrate—ten
years of efficient service for Atlanta.
Judge Broyles Is a member of one of
the state's most distinguished families.
His father, the late Colonel Edwin N.
Broyles, was. one of Atlanta’s brilliant
lawyers, whose fame as a barrister ex
tended even to other states. The home
of Colonel Broyles, elder, the house in
which Judge Nash Broyles wan born
In IMS, still stands In Luckle-st..
which Is but additional attest of the
latter's supreme fitness as a native son
for any favors at the hands of the peo.
pie of a city to which he Is bound by
many ties.
Judge BroyleB graduated from the
common and high schools of Atlanta at
an early age, and entered the Univer
sity of Georgia, from which he grad
uated with highest honors at the age
df nineteen. His ability and popular
ity at the state university were such
that he was elected unanimously as
college annlversarian, the highest honor
which could be conferred upon a stu
dent.
Hla career since the time of his grad
uation has been equally, brilliant. The
keen legal .mind which he Inherited
from his father haa been used both to
his own and the advantage of his na
tive city. Hla dissertations upon spe
cial features of city law have been
commented upon far and wide, and
many of his decisions In Important
cases have been used as precedents by
police magistrates of other and larger
cities.
In making his announcement. to the
people of Atlanta, Judge Broyles, be
yond pointing out extreme difficulties
which have confronted him In many
years' service for the city, stands upon
a platform which for brevity doubt
less has never been equalled. It con
tains but live words, "THE ENFORCE
MENT OF THE LAW." A strict car
rying out of a platform or this kind,
he mys. Is the only- manner of satls-
ffictorlly solving, ttuj problems which
confront the police department of the
city, , ‘ '
- A terror to evil-driers, be they poor
or rich, yet not unmerciful, a stickler
for tbe enforcement of the prohibition
laws he has made a few enemies
among those 'otherwise Inclined, but
his friends'say the good people of At
lanta will continue to stand by him In
irlrio
his effor
rid the city of crime.
DR. BEN E. PEARCE.
Dr. Ben E. Pearce served the
FOURTH WARD as a wide-awake,
faithful and progressive Councilman,
and If elected ALDERMAN will give a
splendid service to the Fourth ward and
the city. As the entire city votes for
Alderman, hundreds of his friends In
other wards will have a fine opportuni
ty to show their appreciation of him
a man and as a former official.
Dr. Pearce has given satisfactory
service to the people: he believes In
measures which make for progress In
every department of city government.
Taxes should be Just and equalized,
each taxpayer paying In a ftflr propor
tion to what he owns. This will give
ample money for ordinary expenses.
Dr. Pearce has strong, clear Ideaa
concerning schools. The buildings
should be of modem design and con
struction, with a view to permanency,
sanitation and hygiene. Every child Is
entitled to ah education and should
have a seat and proper text books,
purents are unable to buy books, they
should be furnished free to the chil
dren, and by education giving each
child un opportunity to prepare for the
battles of life. The only possible way
to retain hlgh-clase teachers Is to pi
salaries commensurate with the woi
done. What Is the situation? They
are required to devote nearly the whole
year to teaching and study, but only
receive ten months pay, and salaries
are lower than paid by ANY CITY of
Atlanta's size, tower than paid for <
er kinds of work less Important and
for which little time Is required to
qualify.
Dr. Pearce believes In other things
concerning city government which
show Intelligent observation, keen dis
cernment and a strong sense of Justice.
Pollcomen,- for Instance, are required
to work extra tlmo. He thinks It but
fair that they bo paid for their services.
Dr. Pearce believes that street Im
provements should bo of permanent
character, thus saving money now
wasted on temporary work; also the
wages paid city employees should bo
equal to that paid by private concerns
for like work: then the city could re
tain the beat class of workmen. Cheap
labor Is a bad form of extravagance.
The stockade should be sold ns soon aa
practicable, with the exception of land
needed for school purposes. All dump
ing grounds for the refuse of the city
should bo on land purchased for that
purpose, beyond the city limits. All
surface closets should be done away
with as early as sewers and water can
be had for that purpose.
Dr. Pearce being a member of the
National Military Medical association
und surgeon of the Georgia cavalry and
other medical associations. Is In posi
tion to aid Atlanta In many ways. He
was a strong supporter of the bond
Issue, and as Alderman would Insist
that the money derived from It be
spent as designated In the Issue.
Dr. Pearce Is receiving the support
of a host of friends who predict his
election.

DAN W. BOWIE.
Dan W. Bowie, the present officlent
City Electrician, who was elected by
the council several months ago to suc
ceed Mr. Fred Miles, Is giving entire
satisfaction to the council and the peo
ple. Previous to his election he was
Assistant City Electrician for two
years. He has had 'nine years expe
rience, having been. employed for sev-
earl years by the Carter A Gillespie
Electric Co. and the B. R. Electric
Company. Mr. Bowie regrets that It
has been Impossible, on.account of hla
many duties, to see the voters person
ally in tho Interest of hla candidacy for
re-election. Bo many new buildings
are being erected and so many arc
lights are being placed on the streets
that It has been Impossible for him to
neglect the duties of the office. Every
building which Is erected and. every arc
light put up Is under his direct super
vision. Mr. Bowie Is an Atlanta boy,
born and reared here, and numbers hts
friends by the hundreds. He believes
that the people will Indorso hla past
record as an efficient public servant
and that the old Democratic doctrine,
which allows the faithful officer to
succeed himself one time, will prevail.
He haa Juat received a communication
from hla predecessor in office, which
speaks for Itself:
Atlanta, Ga., Oct 12, 1110.
To Whom It May Concern:
Mr. Dan Bowie has been connected
with me during the past two years as
Assistant City Electrician. He la con
sequently perfectly familiar with the
duties of tho City Electrician. Aa my
assistant, Mr. Bowie has been very at
tentive to the city's Interest and has
shown hlmalf a moat capable and effi
cient official. His work has never been
subjected to complaint and I regard
him as ope of the best electricians In
the city.
It gives mo great pleasure tn recom
mend him to my friends and acquaint
ances, and I will appreciate their In
fluence In his behalf. Very truly yours,
FRED MILES.
CANDIDATE FOR CHIEF
OF CONSTRUCTION
MALVERN HILL. #
Malvern Hill, who la a candidate
recorder, In a well known attorney of
Atlanta, having enjoyed a lucrative
practlve since hla admission to the bar.
Hla entry Into the race for record<*r
was the result of the earnest persua
sion of his many friends from whom he ,
Is receiving: strong support.
Mr. Hill haa repreaented the Seventh
ward In the city council, being a mem
ber of that body In the years of 1901
and 1902.
During hla term In the city council
he held the Important place of chair
man of the claims and litigation com
mittee, which, aa Is well known. Is
one of the most Important committees
of the council. While chaJrman of this
committee he made an enviable record,
alwaya acting aa he thought for the
very beat Interest of the whole people.
Four yeara ago. when the recorder
was elected by the city council, Air.
Hill entered the race against the in
cumbent. but waa defeated. His de
feat, however, was by only one vot«?.
When a candidate at that time ho ad
vocated principles by which he won
many friends; he stood for what ho
thought was to the interest of v-.e
many and In the face of defeat nev r
altered from the position and stand ho
had taken. *
By his honest methods, his Integrity
and his true sense of justice, many a
friend whom lie haa won haa stood by
him.
In July of 1909 he became a member
of the law Arm of Andersun, Felder,
Rountree & Wilson. Prior to that tlmo
he had carried on a practice of his own.
In announcing himself Mr.. Hill said:
•if*honored by the people by being
elected to this office. It shall be my aim
to enforce the ordinances of the city
fearlessly, rigidly and Impartially, but 1
shall not forget In'the administration
of the office that “Justice should be
tempered with mercy.”'
Mr. Hill also pledges himself to he< ii
the admonition of both the state an I
Federal constitutions, that “excessive
bail shall not be required, nor excessive
fines Imposed." *

CAPT. R. M. CLAYTON.
City Engineer Hubert M. Clayton,
who haa held that office with the ex-
cepUon of ona term since 1178. and
who now Is offering for the place ‘
Chief of Construction, was reared
tbe mountains of North Carolina. He
enlisted In the 60th North Carolina reg
iment when but sixteen years old and
was one of the bravest of the soldiers
who fought for tho Lost Cause In tbe
war of the '60’s. He was commander
of hla company during the last two
yeara of t)ie war.
After hostilities ceased, and the work
of building the new South fell bft»>
the eoldlere weary from four years -f
fierce warfare. Captain Clayton took
up railroad work, and soon had risen
to the place of contractor. At such
he built three divisions of the old
Richmond and Danville read, now a
part of the Southern. Strangely, too,
these divisions were built In the states
of Georgia, South and North Carolina,
one division In each state.
Leaving the Richmond and Danville,
he surveyed tha Chattahoochee river
from Atlanta to Columbus for the Fed
eral government. In 1676 he was elect
ed city engineer of Atlanta, and haa
held that position up to this time with
the exception of one term.
The work of Captain Clayton In this
office Is familiar to every Atlantan.
Under hie eupervlalon have all the
streets and viaducts and sanitary and
other Improvements been made by the
city of Atlanta. He haa worked tire
lessly for tha city’s Interests, and not
a few of tha great benefits of the Im
provements .that have been mode can
be laid directly at his door. Ills has
been tbe guiding hand that made the
dreams of a greater city come true.
Second In point of service to the city.
In Captain Clayton's office, la Captain
W, T. B. Wilson, who since 1181 has
been In charge of the city's sewers. W.
T. Wilson, who Is an assistant in that
d'parimenL haa been In the service
of the city for fifteen yeara. Can Brit
tain, the efficient member of Captain
Clayton's family who has charge of the
■treet department, has been In service
two yean. Dr. Charles tFAlvIgny has
been Inspector of etreet paving for
twenty yeara. Togather with these and
other members of Captain Clayton's
e of workers, there are asioclated
him on hla ticket the following
gentlemen: Nym Hurt, Jamea A. Mas
sey, who is now with the Frank E
Block Company; U 8. Norman. A. T.
Hall. Fred Ehlers. and J. W. Bridwell.
ucarion and experience
he Is well equipped for discharging effi
ciently the dutlee of Chief of Conatruc-
tlOn. Hla ability la recognised as much
elsewhere as in hla adopted city. He
Is a member of the American Society
of Civil Engineers and of the American
Waterworks association. In 1*00 he
was president of the latter association.
HENRY L. COLLIER.
Commissioner of Public Works H. L.
Collier, who Is olferlnr for the office f
chief of construction, Is fitted In every
way for satisfactorily attending to the
duties of thla new office. He gran n-
ated In civil engineering at the univer
sity In 1*72. with tho degree of C. E.
He epent a number of yeara In the
government service, being on* of eleven
of the college of examiners of surveve.
Thla aarvlce waa spent In the West,
where he gained valuable experience
thru the actual work and thru as* irla-
tlon with othar experts. The hard ' hit <
he endured doubtless contribute now to
hla ability to work long hours uneeaa-jl
Ingly with an energy possessed' by few
men.
The Attiees of Mr. Collier for the po
sition to which he aspires Is no new
thing to Atlantans.' His connection with
the city as commissioner of public
works and his service have been so val
uable and hie methods In dealing with
difficult problems so sensible and piwr-
tlcal that hla long yeara of publl t '
mark him as one who has been fled
and found not wanting. His exporter ■-
ae a civil engineer for 36 year* |.re
eminently fits him for the dutlee of I
