NOTICE TO
TRADE UNION MEMBERS
The circular letters being cir culated 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 an 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 Rv & 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. Ry. <t Power Co would be a
more valuable asset to the community. R C TURNER.

GRAND MONDAY NIGHTERS
LIKE "AN OPENING NIGHT"
Three acts on the Grand bill of vaude
ville this week are exceptionally good
"An Opening Night." ’'Tony and the
Stork and Golden and Hughes-- and of
these the former pleased most last night
The rest of the bill Is also very good
“An Opening N.giii is principally a
vehicle for character studies, with :<?r* ,

bandied. The i-lavler is from the pen

of Hugh Gibson, us the stuttering drug

"broken speech” characters seen tn At

these characters is an entertainment

view at once are a Joy forever.
Ten fortunate Individuals In the au

the performance today In the game of
"Zlm-Zam" aforementioned, and the
penniless young couple

the playlet.
You've heard the graphophone play
“Turkey In the Straw," with that inimita

that's Golden And he and Hughes beat
the graphopbone last night because there
is more of it.
Maurice Freeman, as Tony, the new
father In a strange country, in “Tony
and the Stork." did some fine Italian
character acting, and his work was well
received. The playlet is somewhat out
of the ordinary, giving opportunity for
running the gamut of the emotions.
Other acts were Alvin and Kenney, fly

fairly tunny. In a pianologue; Sadie Jan

the Patties.
BIG LYRIC AUDIENCE SAW
"THE LITTLE TENDERFOOT"
A Wild West show without, a single
pistol ahot, without the burning of a sin
gle grain of powder, without the visi
ble murder of a single man. without a
liar room scene, without a. drunken cow
boy. and without a. villain!
Think of it! Scenery as wild as the
wildest, thrills and creepy music that
kept one on tiptoe of expectation, which
was fully justified by the climax.
Such was the unique feature pulled
by “The I,title Tenderfoot" company at
the Lyric last night, and which will be
repeated every night, with Tuesday.
Thursday and Saturday matinees, the
balance of this week
"The Little Tenderfoot" is a rfcal actor
(or actress), too.
The company is capable and the play is
clean and interesting, and the audience
was well pleased.

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.
Mow, 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. Chambers is chairman of the Sewer committee His partner,
Mr \\ R Daley, is attorney for the Nichols Construction Company,
a firm which is doing a large part of the sewer and other construction
work in Atlanta. Yet Mr. Chambers says that he and Mr. Daley have
no connection other than that they have offices together. Yet the
latest Bell Telephone Directory gives M 1931 as Daley & Chambers,
attorneys. Grant building. Runny, isn’t it?
Aiderman .1 \\ Maddox, who is doing sub-eontract work for the
city, which is clearly in violation of the city charter, is. I am told, a
cousin of Mr Chambers Think it over.
1 have be, n 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
hini, and the ■ Ring" always does as he directs. .
I'roin the condition ol the streets ol this city torn up m everv
direction it is conclusive proof that the ring members of the general
council give more attention io petty offices than they do to the welfare
of the city
Mr. Chambers stated in a card last week that work on the new
crematory had begun, and would be completed the 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
*12,98, ~0 of this monex was spent for land Where is the land? Arc
they to build a crematory on this land.’ Why did they buy it and
who from Die balance of the $50,000 of bonds is laying idle, ami on
which the city has paid annually $2,250.00 in interest and $1,666.66
into the sinking fund, or a total of $11,749.98 in three years, of th*
*50.000 borrowed, and not a brick has boon laid yet on a crematory.
Do the people ot Atlanta intend io allow this kind of business to
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
gratulators features of "The Rose Maid"
is the lack of any suggestion of coarse
or unseemly act or deed. The play wins
by its up-tb-date equipment and aptly
taken roles; the women are charming,
and the men sing and act 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 is 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

County Commissioner Tull Waters
Says:
"That there is something wrong in the asphalt contract for the
county; that Philadelphia pays only $13.00 per ton for asphalt, while
Fulton county is paying $38.00 per ton for the same asphalt.”
It has been charged, and never denied, that Councilman Cham
bers and Aiderman J. \\ . 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.
Every portion of the city should be served alike, and not one
section 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
(haling 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?
\\ ith me as Mayor, you can 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.
Respectfully,
JAMES G WOODWARD
Candidate for Mayor.
