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.

HIIB I I IX ii - n M 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. (Advertisement). ARP'S DAUGHTER-IN-LAW DEAD. ROME. GA.. Oct. 1.
