iCouncilmen Seeking Charter!
Amendment Have Clayton
and Goldsmith in Mind.
■
That the real object of the movement
to give city council power to remove
officials was the retirement on half pay
of Chief of Construction R. M. Clayton
and Comptroller J. H. Goldsmith. t«’>
of the oldest officials of the city, was
definitely learned today.
Clayton and Goldsmith have served
In most important capacities for about
30 years and both are candidates for
re-election without opposition The
salary of Captain Clayton is 34,000 and
of Mr. Goldsmith $3,000
No councilman has been bold enough
to state the intent of the amendment
covering this design now in the hands
of the committee on charter amend
ments. But privately it is said by’ all
that its object is to retire the two men.
The ordinance was framed by the or
dinance committee of council and was
to have been passed at the last meet
ing. But it was too broad in its scope.
It gave council the authority to retire
the mayor or any other official, electivg
or appointive, at any time by a two
rthirds vote. Objections were imme
diately registered and It is now being
revised by the charter amendments
committee.
Retirement Now Voluntary.
Under the present pension ordinance
no pension can exceed SSO per month
and retirements can only be mad*, on
| the application of the pensioner. The
1 new amendment, when introduced in
I council again, will provide for authority
to council to retire any official and that
those officials w ho have served 30 years
at a salary of 33,000 a year or more
shall receive half pay.
The members of the ordinance com
mittee. from which the resolution was
introduced, are Charles IV. Smith,
James E. Barren. John S. Candler,
Clarence Haverty and Claude C. Mason.
But the fate of the ordinance is as
yet unknown, for there has been no test
vote in council.
EXPOSITION MILLS TO

Steady growth of the manufacture

two new factories and in enlarging an
other. The Exposition Cotton mills of
Atlanta have placed a contract for
16.000 additional spindles and machin
ery at a cost of 3200,000.
The Empire Cotton Oil Company of
-Atlanta will erect a cotton seed oil mill
at Madison. Ga . at a cost of 3100.000.
A cotton mill will be built at once in
Kershaw, S. C., by the Kershaw Cotton
mills, recently incorporated, with a

I CLARK HAS4B4 PLEDGED '
DELEGATES; ASSURED
FIRST BALLOT CHOICE
NEW' YORK. Jun* 3.—Speaker I
Champ Clark s presidential campaign
j managers are now crowding on al!
I steam to a whirlwind finish on the
i first ballot at the Baltimore convention.
| With the last of the delegates to the
j convention selected, a stock taking of
the Clark managers shows him with a
commanding lead of 484. which takes
no account of the states, New York
among them, where the delegates are
uninstructed, and presumably win cast
their votes for the unmistakable choice.
of a vast majority of the Democratic
electorate.
Friends of the speaker figure that
these will be swung to him when the
trend of sentiment becomes certain, as
will also other votes now counted as
uncertain, before th* end of the first
ballot is reached, so that a nomination
of Mr. Clark by acclamation is con
fidently expected as an outcome of the
party conclave.
This is the logic of the situation, ac
cording to the shrewd reasoning of
those who have manage the magnifi
cent campaign of the speaker up to
this stage.
The 484 votes credited to him are
pledged absolutely, morally or by ac
tual count of heads. It is a clear and
commanding majority over all the other
candidates in the field, and represents
a compact, determined body of men
representative of the sentiment in their
respective states which max be count
ed upon to resist any combination or
compromise that max be offered.
Aroused No Bitterness.
Bareli’ in the history of either of the
great parties, it is pointed out, has a
candidate for a presidential nomination
come down to a convention w ith such
a commanding majority of the dele
gates without having left in his wake
bruised political feelings and factional
dissension to create trouble for him in
the aprty ranks in the ensuing cam
paign.
The point of which is illustrated in
the remarks of Supreme Court Justice
Gerard, of this efty, that Mr. Clark
"shows a disposition to be the candi
date of a great partv - rather than the
candffiate of his own personal ambition."
And that ' he seems the one figure on
whom all the factions can unite, on
1 whom no serious attack can be made."
■ It is as the candidate of a harmo
nious Democracy that Clarks nomina
tion is looked for on the first ballot at
Baltimore, as well as the candidate of a
fearless, progressive Democracy which
is destined, under his leadership, to
sweep the country’ at. the polls next No
vember.
What Justice Gerard says in his
strong indorsement of Senator Clark
has been echoed a thousand times since
the beginning of the remarkable cam
paign for delegates which closed last
night with an impressive popular vic
tory for the speaker.
Enthusiasm the Keynote.
Enthusiasm has been the keynote.,
and it is significant of the great popu
larity of the speaker—the glowing
quality of his record of service and the
soundness of his statesmanship—that
his candidacy ha-- matched at all times,
and in reason and solid worth has ex
ceeded th* acclaim with which Theo
dore Roosevelt has been received.
The spontanietv- and enthusiasm with
w-hich state after state, in all sections
of the country, swung into line for th*
speaker Is the strongest argument, next
to the delegates themselves, for his
nomination at Baltimore. All sectional

them Into police court. They explained
to Recorder Pro Tern Preston that they
merely were settling a long standing
feud, and the recorder imposed a smab
fine of $5.75 in each case. When th*
court asked the belligerents'if the dif

His Democracy and th* principles
for which h* stands suited the-views of
all alike. He did no campaigning on
his own behalf, but remained at his
post of duty in Washington, presiding
over the house of representative-s and
adding, by that mefns. to the swelling
record of his performances
There has been no halt or setback.
"On to Baltimore with a great lead" IS
the watchword and rallying cry. and
with this commanding shoving which
Clark has made in every section of the
country, no doubt is felt that when the
great council of leaders has assembled
and taken note of sentiment, the wishes
of a majority of the Democrats of the
nation, expressed in a score of harmo
nious conventions, will be heeded in the
nomination of Champ Clark without
further ado.
Few Contests To Vex Convention. »
The cardinal point to be noted is that
there will be few contests, no more than
two or three, to vex the convention*
when it settles down to work. It will
be a question . of preference, with 484
delegates for Clark, as against th* field
trailing behind with no candidates
w ithin a hundred vote, of the speaker.
The table of delegates shows the
commanding position of Mr. ' lark. His
strength is that of a candidate whose
popularity among hi- party followers
has placed him pre-eminently above all
other candidates for the nomination.
His lead is such that the nomination of
no other candidate is possible under the
two-thirds rule of Democratic conven
tions. His nomination i-- regarded as
certain, therefore as a matter of course
as well h- of necessity, party expe
diency. well-merited- reward and the
national w elfare.
