Candler and Armistead Support
ers Attack Rival Candidates in
~ Ward Meetings.
Municipal politics grew red-hot
Thursday night when Candler speak
gflin the Ninth Ward attacked
istead, and Armistead himself in
the Third Ward attacked Candler.
Large crowds attended each meeting.
Robert C. Alston, chief speaker for
Mr. Candler, said the campaign was
one of hatred. ie charged that the
same forces which are trying to move
the capital to Macon are trying to
tear down the proud prestige of At
lanta by defeating one of her fore
most citizens. He pald a glowing
tribute to Mr. Candier's philanthropy
in building his great cotton ware
houses, giving the poor work and
protecting the farmer. He spoke of
Mr. Candler's support of Wesley Me
morial Hospital and his gift to Emory
[University.
Forrest Adair attacked Mr. Armi
stead’s statement that Mr. Candler's
Druid Hills home had been under
valued and sald if this were true it
‘was Mr. Armistead’'s business as Al
derman to have taken this matter up
and to have protected the city, He
said the lot next Mr. Candler's and a
better one was sold for $16,000, and
that as for the valuation of the
Candler property the city assessors
fixed that.
J. R. Smith also attacked Mr. Armi
stead, as a man who had been In
Council three years without having
established himself as a leader in
flnance or government. Victor K.
Kriegshaber said the eyes of the na
tion are on Atlanta because the na
tion knows Mr. Candler., 8. E. Da.
wvidson also spoke.
J. L. Rodier, introducing Mr, Armi
#tead in the Third Ward, attacked
Mr. Candler and his supporters for
falling to géve the people an idea of
what they intended doing in case of
success at the polls. He assalled Mr.
Candler for doing things for seem
ingly civic motives when his motives
wactually were selfish,
Mr. Armistead repeated his charge
that the Candier home was returned
at $22,000 valuation when it was act
ually worth $125,000. He said Mr.
Candler's atlitude was too distant
from the people., He reviewed his
own record in public life and declared
he would drop out now if he could be
shown one good reason why Mr.
Candler should be elected.
George Adair Sends
__The following card, signed by
George Adair, was sent to The Geor
gian Friday:
“I have noticed in the newspapers
recently several statements purported
to come from Mr. Armistead, a can
didate for the office of Mayor of At-
Jjanta, In which he charges, in effect,
that Mr. Candler's gift of $1,000,000

a land scheme, and that the enhauce

“The facts are as follows:
“In 1914 the Methodist Church, at a
meeting held in Dallas, decided to es

than Vanderbilt,
“Several cities made many efforts to
secure this university, but the trus
tees were favorably impressed with
the advantages of Atlanta, and, after
mature deliberation, decided to locate
it here,
Before Site Was Named.
“Not only before the site of the uni
versity was declded upon, but Indeed
befcre Atlanta was selected as the

Asa G, Candler had decided to give
$1,000,000 to this university, and so
stated to a few of his intimate friends,
including myself.
“After the city was named, these-

and a dozen or more places In differ

me to select several such sites as 1

two fights, a legal battle, three fines
and a challenge to meet on neutral
territory and have it out. Unless
somebody takes out a peace warrant,

It all started in the office of Bene
dict Kobak, in the Healey Building..
Mr. Kobak is a collector for the ad-
Justing company. He was seeking, it
seems, to adjust something with J. B,
Thompson by using hard language.
Mr. Thompson resented this method
of adjustment and substituted a plan
of his own, which included hitting Mr.
Kobak in the head with a large brass

to it in the corridor of the police sta

in the eye.
Judge Johnson caused them to be
hauled back Into court and fined the
younger Thompson $5.75,
“It was worth it,” he declared, add

Surprised at Donation. |
“In _perfect frankness, 1 will add
that I fully expected the university
to buy this land; and I was greatly
surprised when Mr. Candler told me
that he intended donaunl‘)-the site
and settling with the other Druid Hills
stockholders for their pro rata inter
ests on an agreed valuation. 'When
this intention on his part was made
known to the other stockholders, they
joined 'n and actually donated the 75
acres to the EFmory University,
“At this time Druid Hills owned
about 1,400 acres of land, and Mr.
Candler’s interest was less than 50 per

“Every real estate agent In Atlanta
and every other man who possesses
the slightest idea of real estate
values knows that it would be a finan

this Druid Hills property to be en
hanced $1,000,000 by the lacation
thereon of any institution: in faet,
such enhancement as may accrue will
not approximate one-tenth of this

morning. He is now in Waestern
North Dakota, whére Colonel Roose
velt spent the largest part of his
ranch days. Many of Roosevelt's ol'd
friends are cantering into the van-‘
ous towns on their cowponies to have‘
a look at the man who was preferredl
to T. R. by the Republican conven
tion. ; |
Mr. Hughes made a three-minute
speech here, in which he assailed
the Democracy for inefficiency and its
vacillating stand on the tariff. He as
serted it was impossible to tell wheth
er they favored tariff for revenue or
slightly protective duties.
“The Democratic party is a party
without principle,” he declared.
~_After concluding his speech Hughes
!shook hands with the people till his
train pulled out. About 1,000 people
‘were at the station to welcome him.
‘There was liberal handclapping, but
no cheering.
Hughes apparently i{s in a frame

in the tour, before the left the big
cities, the former associate justice
