WRIGHTTOTAKE
SWFOIIT.fI.
He’ll Help the Colonel Break
“Solid South”—That Is, if
Latter Is Nominated.
In the event-that Theodore Roose
velt wins the Republican nomination
for the pi-- sidency of tin United States,
it is stated upon reliable authority that
Seaborn Wright qf Home. will urge
from the stump in Georgia the election
of tie Rough Rider in Novembet
Mr, Wright is known to be a great
admire’ of Colonel Roos, velt Die
Floyd eountv brator beli'-v s that
Roosevelt is the finest "progressive" of
them all. and that Iris, election cer
tainly over any man touched with a
■‘reactionary" taint, would be a gen
uine blessing to the common people of
the country, and that regardless of
party lines or affiliations,
A few weeks ago Colonel Roosevelt
publicly announced his purpose to car
ry the war into Dixie should he win the
nomination. ll' it quoted as having
said as far back as l»<> years ago
that if any one thing ever could again
mow him to run for the presidency it
Would b< the thought that he might
break th< Democratic "solid South."
These facts are being recalled today,
when Mr Wright’s determination to
*tump the slate for Roosevelt is be
ing rumored so persistently and with
such show of authority.
In the late presidential primary in
Georgia. Mr. Wright favored Wilson,
in preference to Underwood, hut it is
said that he was not tn Georgia on
election day. and cast no vote in the
primary.
With Colonel Roosevelt himself on
the stump in Georgia occasionally, and
Seaborn Wright on it in his behalf
regularly, their is m> doubt that t!m
forthcoming presidential fight in this
vicinity would be picturesque and
strenuous enough for tin most exact
ing.
Council Opens Fight
That Means $50,000
More Taxes Yearly
<’ouncil has begun a light to have the
Birmans act of the general assembly,
which permits the Georgia Railway and
Power Company and the Southern Bell
Telephone Company to deduct its fran
chise taxes from the special occupation

In the rate agreement the Georgia Rail-
way and Power Company agreed not to
oppose council’s efforts. Yesterday after
noon council adopted a resolution request
ing a repeal of the net at the next ses
sion of the legislature. If the* legislature
complies with the request. Alderman
.lames H Nuying, author of the resolu
tion, says the city will get an additional
revenue from these corporations of more
than $50,000 a year.

SON TELLS STM
OF SUICIDE'S SUIT
Sydney Rosenblatt, son of Mrs. Fran
ces A. Rosenbaltt, niece of the million
aire packer, Nelson Morris, told for the
first time today of the romance between
bis mother and Henry Spruck Von-
Armenthal that, led to the suicide of the
wealthy "Apple King. '
"VonArmenthal did not accompany
my mother to Atlanta when she visited
mt two weeks ago.’’ he said. “He fol
lowed her here. Although she was
friendly to him while he was a visitor
in town. I could see that the engage
ment wouldn’t last, for he was drinking
heavily."
Rosenblatt is manager of the Ajax
Oil Company, with offices on North
avenue. Here is the story of this re
markable romance which became a
tragedy, according to Rosenblatt’s in
formation :
Couple Met in California.
Mis. Rosenblatt and VonArmenthal
met in Venice, Cal,, at a tourists’ re
sort. He was an attractive sort of fel
low and she liked him very much after
they became acquainted. The engage
ment was announced shortly after and
was given extended notice in all the
big dailies, because of Mrs. Rosen
blatt's kinship to Nelson Morris and
VonArmenthal’s personal prominence.
~ She did not know that he touched a
drop. The fact that he did came to the
surface shortly after they were en
gaged. She immediately left Venice
and told VonArmenthal that she didn’t
wish to see him again. He followed
her. She went to San Francisco and
he placed detectives on her trail, final
ly locating her. This was two years
ago.
Three times VonArmenthal agreed to
quit drinking. He made his last prom
ise in Atlanta two weeks ago, when
Mrs. Rosenblatt was here and promptly
broke it, When she.returned to Chi
cago she avoided him. going to a re
mote- hotel and registering tinder an
other name.
Drank Heavily Here.
"He seemed a fine fellow,” said Syd
ney Rosenblatt, “and he had much to
live for if he could have cut himself
away front drink. I learned that he
was drinking heavily while here and
so did my mother. I could see then
that the engagement wouldn't last.”
VonArmenthal was well known to
members of the Theatrical club. While
in Atlanta, he lived at the Piedmont,
but was frequently seen at the club and
was known as a free drinker and
spender.
Mrs. Rosenblatt, when located in
Chicago, cried over VonArmenthal's
death.
“If IS better'so." she said. “I loved
him anti had it not been for his dissi
pation 1 would have married him. But
1 am afraid now. He used to tell me
that when he died lie was going to
haunt tne In the spirit world.”

It’s Rosser, Jr., on Fulton Dele
gation, Not His Father, as
Thomas E. Suspected.
"1 never laid eyes on the amiable Mr.
Tom Watson in my life." said Delegate
to-the-state-con vention-to-be Rosser
today
"I have lead the good-natured and
cheerful line of talk Mr. Watson handed
out to my father in his last Progressive
Democrat." continued Mr. L. Z. Rosser.
Jr., “but I can not see the connection
between my father and the state con
vention. I am to be one of Fulton's
delegates; that is true. But Mr. Ros
ser. Sr., never has been mentioned once
in that connection, and doubtless he.
would decline to serve as a delegate
were he named."
From which it will be readily ob
served that the Hon. Thomas E, Wat
son got his wires badly crossed last
week, when in his Progressive Demo
crat he lambasted Luther Z. Rosser.
Sr., for divers and sundry political
high crimes and misdemeanors, under
the impression that the senior and not
the junior Rosser was to be one of
Fulton's delegates to the state conven
tion,
“Spite Work,” Said Thos. E.
Mr. Watson charged that Mr. Rosser
was placed upon the Fulton delegation
by somebody, to deponent unknown,
particularly to spite Mr. Watson. From
the tone of Mr. Watson's vehement
anti-Rosser article, many people were
led to think that Mr. Rosser’s only ob
ject in getting himself on that com
mittee was because he didn't like Mr.
Watson —or because Mr. Watson imag
ines he doesn't, anyway —and that the
reason of the Rosser dislike grew out.
of a case in court won by Mr. Watson,
while Mr. Rosser w as on the other side.
Mr. Watson's various Rosser suspi
cions and apprehensions might have
convinced a lot of people that the "city
politicians" are really attacking Watson
hither and yon, and with malice afore
thought, to, were! t not for the tri
fling circumstance that Mr. Rosser. Sr.,
is not to be on the delegation, and
never has been mentioned for it.
"T understand Mr. Watson is a very
pleasant person when he is in an amia
ble frame of mind.” concluded L. Z.
Rosser, Jr., discussing the incident to
day, “which, I am reliably informed,
is occasionally. I wouldn’t know him if
I should meet him in the middle of the
big road; but that is my dire misfor
tune, of course, and not altogether my
fau't."
