6 TO SWING /TO BACK INTOFOLD Trammell and Committee Will Work Hard to Wipe Out Re publican Victory. DALTON. GA.. Sept. 17 Hon. Paul B Tranrnu.il. of this city, the nevi'.' elected chairman of the Seventh dis trict Democratk executive committee, statee that the committee will prose cute an aggressive campaign for Wil son and Marshall in the approaching national election, having determini <1 not to allow the Republicans to dupli ' cate their feat of four years ago, when they carried the district in the national election. Speaking of the outlook, Mr Trammell says: "We are going to get down to work in earnest and see that the Seventh district Is in the right company this year. The district is not Republican— there is not a Republican county among the thirteen which form the district - notwithstanding the fact that the Re publicans were victorious four years ego. "Then it was the indifference of the Democrats which permitted the Repub. Leans to carry the district; the Repub licans voted while thousands of Demo crats remained away from the polls. "Our efforts will be mainly directed toward getting the Democrats to vote this year, and we are going to keep so (busy that they will vote. We are go ing out after them, there will be no Indifference shown, and the result Is going to verify my prediction that the Democratic ticket will roll up a big ma jority in the district in November.” Four years ago the Republicans car ried the district by a plurality approxi mating 1.000 votes. Less than half the a registration participated in the elec tion. Mr. Trammell conducted the campaign when Senator Hoke Smith defeated Governor Brown for the gov ernorship. anci this year he conducted Tils own campaign for state railroad commissioner, leading all candidates for the commission. He will prepare a personal appeal to the voters of the district to give the Democratic nominees their active sup port in the approaching election.

The Grand Is a handsome playhouse and as the home of high-class vaudeville Jb sure to he popular with Atlanta theatergoers. The opening bill was a notable one Several high lights could be selected from the bill, which struck a high av erage. There are features to suit all tastes—the cunning little animals of the Klutings, well trained and beauti ful; the exceedingly fine dancing of Max Ford, the quick change work of ('aesar Rivoli, the funny sketch pre sented by Willard Sims and company when absurd antics and hilarity reign supreme, the winsome little come dienne, Miss Josie Heather, in pretty frocks, presenting new songs and dances tn charming style; the acro bats. with a novel chair stunt, and last, but not least, .1, Francis Dooley and Corinne Sales, in their offering called Pavement Patter," which is just a lot of foolishness touched with the humor of life. Dooley and Miss Sales are local favorites, and their first ap pearance wns greeted with a ripple of applause. He is a born comedian, with an inimitable air all his own, and “my little partner is all to the good, sweet and pretty and as jolly as can be. Miss Heather was well received, and both she and Mr. Dooley felt called upon to make little speeches of appre ciation of the generous reception given them.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17. 1912. 8«w of the present cast are not entirely equal to their very trying roles, it makes an interesting and absorbing plot. T he first two acta, devoted to the devel opment of the plot and story drag con siderably, but the last two —and particu larly the third redeem any discomfort previously experienced. Briefly, Thomas Bartlett is accused of the murder of his friend, found dead in the st firm from a shot from Bartlett’s gun The real murderer, a communicant >f the church over which Father Bartlett, brother of Tom, is the priest, confesses I to the murder to the priest-brother and seeks absolution. The priest then learns his brother is acc used of the murder, but by lis oath his lips are seated And be cause of his regard for his oath as priest h< would have seen his brother executed. A public confession by the guilty man saves him from this, but it comes only at the last moment, and by’ this time the horror of the priest’s position is realized by the audience and a real sigh of re lief goes up when the truth at last tri umnhs. The real triumph of “The Confession" is a court room scene which is realistic interesting and not ridiculous. The author in this scene has weeded out every unnecessary word and bit of action, and. thanks to William Ingram as the judge, Martin .Malloy as prosecutor and Charles j Canfield as the defendant’s attorney, three splendid actors, the act is made a really great bit of work. The company as a whole is very good, and the play is worth seeing for its story alone, which is a daring one, but well worked out by the author. IDre matinee and night today at the Atlanta. “NAUGHTY MARIETTA" IS NEXT SHOW AT ATLANTA Oscar Kammerstein’s comic opera, “Naughty Marietta.” with Florence Web ber. his new and successful young Ameri can prima donna, and a company of 60 vocalists assembled from Mr. Kammer stein's grand opera enterprises, will play the Atlanta Friday and Saturday. The reports from cities wherein Miss Webber has appeared and the general opinion of the critics proclaim Miss Webber an artiste, fully capable of displaying the many vocal beauties of Victor Herbert’s music and of portraying the different emotions in the difficult role of Marietta as written by Rida Johnson Young, the authoress. \ special orchestra has supplied as well as a splendid production. Seats are on sale beginning today. “SEVEN DAYS" AT LYRIC PLEASES BiG AUDIENCE “Seven Days” and nights, principally nights drew a good audience to the Lyric Monday evening, and the patrons of this play house were well pleased with the show. The company’, taken all the way through, is one of the best seen in At lanta in some time at popular prices; in fact, it is just about as good as the one playing at the higher-priced theaters last season. There was action from the wine supper to the bird seed breakfast, and there was humor in every line. If there is a play on the road today where there are more ridiculous situations or room for more real mirth it has not visited Atlanta. "Seven Days" will be the attraction at the Lyric all this week, with matinees Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. FORSYTH BILL THIS WEEK EQUALS REGULAR STANDARD Splendid crowds visited the Forsyth three times yesterday, and were rewarded with a bill the equal of any produced at the busy theater since the change of policy. The Heidelberg Four and Minnie Vic torso and company, the one in quartet work and the other in a sketchlet, vied for headline honors, and to Judge from applause the race was a dead heat. The Victorso company present an act of com pelling dramatic interest, which rivets the attention from curtain to curtain. The bill also presents the Musical Vynos and a splendid act of acrobatics, presented by’ Aldro and Mitchell. It's a good bill —but go and judge for yourself. 1 DRESS SUITS UNDER BAN TO AID POOR STUDENTS PITTSBURG.

A. Arnold, her 41- year-old husband, to Bliss,'Okla., last December to "make a man of him” and then filed suit for divorce.

"We went to Buffalo. N. Y., were married and came back to St. Louis.

Candler is a member of the Vice Commission of Atlanta. 1 In addition to being one of a clear headed family, he has had years of experience as a judge. He knows law. * ‘‘There are state laws against the evil and also city laws against it,” he says. “Therefore, we members of the commission as citizens and as officials sworn to enforce the law can not recommend anything ex cept that these laws be enforced.” The Mayor, the General Council, of which Judge Candler is a member, the Police Board, the Chief of Police and Policemen should consider that sentence. The sacred oath of office compels the recommendation. Even more so does it demand that the recommendation be put into force and effect. Otherwise, the oath and the recommendation would be hypocrit ical absurdities. The Judge is also familiar with criminals and the effect upon them of the certainty of punishment. He says, If the owners of the houses were prosecuted it would come mighty near breaking them up.” None doubts that it would break them up. The white fingered and musky gentry who now live in Atlanta on the shame of women by the unlawful permission of her officials would never knowingly run the risk of having to hurt their delicate hands with a pick and shovel in the chain gang, where they belong. The simple steps necessary to end the city’s shame are well known to the Judge. Without question, when on the bench, he was often hampered by the cumbersome machinery of indictments by the grand jury and trials by jury, where one corrupt rascal could prevent justice being City ordinances remove these difficulties. The Chief of Police knows the houses and the owners. He has the necessary evidence. He need only give the notice to the owner. » Upon the owner failing to abate the nuisance within two days, he must come before the Recorder for trial. The punishment provided by law is both fine and imprisonment. Again we ofiei help and shelter to the women willing to leave their bondage. ° * » But let justice be done to the criminals who live bv buying and selling them.
