The three Atlanta papers recently printed as an advertisement a card I signed and paid for by John E. Mc- I Cieliand. The card contained a bitter personal attack on Joel Hurt, one of Atlanta's foremost citizens. Mr. 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 without a thorough investiga tion having warranted such an article. The Georgian has perfect confidence in Mr. Hurt's integrity and appreciates the conscientious and unselfish work he has dbne to help make Atlanta the kind of a city it is. !
