IN JUSTICE TO JOEL HURT.)
The three Atlanta papers recently
printed as an advertisement a card
> signed and paid for by John E. Mc-
Clelland. The card contained a bitter
personal attack on Joel Hurt, one of
Atlanta's foremost citizens. Air. Hurt
has taken exception to the fact that a
man was able, through the advertising
columns of the Atlanta papers, to as
. sail another's integrity.
The Georgian takes this occasion to
thank Mr. Hurt for calling attention to
the inadvertence which allowed such
an attack to be made on him or any
other man in its news or advertising
columns withom_jj thorough investiga
; tion having warranted such an article.
. The Georgian has perfect confidence in
I Mr. Hurt's integrity and appreciates
the conscientious and unselfjeii work
■ he has done to help make Atlanta the
kind of a city it is.
