NOTICE TO
TRADE UNION MEMBERS
The circular letters being circulated among- the union men of
Atlanta today by paid agents of the Ga. Ry. & Power Co. are filled
throughout with malicious lies as regards my attitude toward la
bor unions.
The authors of these letters are known, and I intend to prose
cute them and give them ar, opportunity to prove every assertion
that, they make in their communication to the union men of At
lanta.
My attitude toward union labor has always been friendly, and
will continue to be so.
If the Ga. Ry. & Power Co. would spend the money that they
are using trying to defeat me in giving the people of Atlanta bet
ter street car service, the said Ga Rv. & Power Co. would be a
more valuable asset to the community. R. C TURNER

RING RULE IN ATLANTA
DOES IT EXIST ? WELL, READ THIS
AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF
In the 913 names published in all threse of the Atlanta papers, yesterday and today,
aside from out-of-town residents, repetitions, and voters who are going to support me, is
something for every voter to think about.
Now, Let’s Look Into Some of These
Ardent Supporters of Mr. Chambers
In Mr. Chambers list of supporters there will be found more than 75 persons holding office under the
city government, ranging from election managers to mayor. Is it not something out of the ordinary
to see the masses of the people supporting one candidate and an army of officeholders actually allowing
their names to be used publicly in support of the other?
Think It Over, Mr. Voter
Mr < hanibers is chairman of the Sewer committee. Tlis partner.
Mr. \\ h. Daley, is attorney tor the Nichols Construction Company,
•.firm which is doing a large part ol the sewer and other construction
work in Atlanta. Yet'Alr. Chambers says that he and Mr. Daley have
no connection other than that they have offices together.' Yet the
latest Hell Teh phone. Directory gives M. 1931 as Daley A ('hanibers,
attorneys, Grant building. Kuuny, isn't it?
Alderman .1. \\ Maddox, who is doing sub-contract work for the
city, which is clearly in violation of the city charter, is. I am told, a
cousin of Mr Chambers over.
I have been assured by a prominent member of the city council
that there has not been a board member elected this year who was
not either nominated by Mr. Chambers, or his nomination dictated by
him. and t he '■ Ring always does as he directs.
I* com the condition oi the streets of this city torn up in everv
direction it is conclusive proof that the ring members of,the geberal
council give more attention to petty offices than they do to the welfare
of the city.
Mr. ('hanibers stated in a card last week that work on 1 lie new
crematory had begun, and would be completed tin* early part of 1913.
when in fact the work has not yet been started. The $50,000 of cre
matory bonds were sold nearly three years ago. It is reported that
>it of this money was spent for land. Where is the land? Are
they to build a cremators on this land.’ Why did they buy it and
who from ’ The balance of the $50,000 of bonds is laying idle, and on
which the eiti has paid annually $2.2.50.00 in interest and *l.66ti.fili
into the sinkine fund, or a total of $11,749.98 in three years, of th”
>■>11.0(10 borrowed and not a brick has been laid yet on a crematory.
Do th*-- people ot Atlanta intend to allow this kind of business tn
continue? •
and Snitz Moore, as Schmuke. furnished
most of the comedy of the piece. The
latter, especially, as the German money
lender, plays excellent comedy, in a hu
morous manner which has no suggestion
of horseplay. In fact, one of the con
gratulatory features of "The Rose Maid"
Is the lack of any suggestion of coarse
or unseemly act or deed. The play wins
by Its up-to-date equipment and aptly
taken roles; the women. „>>e charming,
and the men sing and art well: the cos
tumes are fresh and pretty: the stage
settings are effective. There is no won
derful music in "The Rose Maid, but it
is all good and the best effect 1s gotten
out of the score by a capable company.
"The Rose Maid" may be seen at the
Atlanta for three more performances, to
night and tomorrow matinee and evening.
CANNING FACTORY PROJECTED.
VALDOSTA. GA.. Oct. I.—A large
canning factory is to be erected at
Fruitland on the Georgia Southern and
Florida railroad between this city and
Jacksonville. Work on the plant will
begin on October 5. Sweet potatoes,
vegetables and cane syrup are to be
canned.
To change the horrible
conditions of our streets
vote for Charles S. Robert
for Chief of Construction.
County Commissioner Tull Waters
Says:
‘ Thai there is something wrong in the asphalt contract for ths
county; that Philadelphia pays only $13.00 per ton for asphalt, while
Pulton county is paying $38.00 per ton for the same asphalt.’’
It has been charged, and never denied, that Councilman Cham
bers and Aiderman .1. W. Maddox, together with some county com
missioners. took an extensive trip through the North last summer,
and that the Barber asphalt people paid all the expenses of that trip.
W ith the ring candidate elected it is but natural to presume that At
lanta will get the same dose that the county is getting. This is but the
natural result of Ring Rule.
I believe the City's money should be expended for the benefit of
all the people, and not in the interest of a few speculators.
A FAVORED FEW ARE GROWING RICH AT THE EXPENSE OF
THE MANY.
Kx-ry portion of the city should be served alike, and not one
siction be built up at the expense of the balance of the city.
Sewers and water mains should not be run through old fields and
woods to enhance in value some influential man's vacant property,
while thickly populated streets are allowed to go unserved, thereby
dealing out death for want of sanitation. With these conditions
staring you in the face on every hand, can you conscientiously sup
port a man for Mayor who has dominated the city for the past two
years and is largely responsible for this state of affairs?
With me as Mayor, you van look forward to that same. safe. sane,
common sense, progressive and economical administration as 1 gave
you on two former occasions when you honored me with this office.
Respect fully,
JAMES G WOODWARD
Candidate for Mayor.
