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.

AT THE THEATERS 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* , and there a straight part good and well | bandied.

Ten fortunate Individuals In the au dience received complimentary seats to the performance today In the game of "Zlm-Zam" aforementioned, and the penniless young couple But that's taking undue advantage of the playlet. You've heard the graphophone play “Turkey In the Straw," with that inimita ble negro laugh accompanying it? Well, 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 ing ring gymnasts; Phil -Stasis, fat and fairly tunny. In a pianologue; Sadie Jan sel. Imitator and singer, very good, and 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.

She scored a flattering personal success last night in the title role of the show.

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 vote for Charles S. Robert for Chief of Construction. • r 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. <Ad verusemaat). ARP'S DAUGHTER-IN-LAW DEAD. ROME. GA., Oct.
