Special to The Georgian.
Knoxville, Tenn., Aug. 7.—One of tho
most Important business transactions I bo it was
consummated here In a long: time was trodured b
the recent formation *by the H. T. session of
Hackney Co. and others of a largo I The ordlnf
company to be known as The Red j gatlon, wai
Rock Company «>f Knoxville, to bottle ] vote,
the celebrated Red Rock Ginger Ale,
manufactured by the Hagan & Dodd
Co., of Atlanta.
The capital to begin with will be
$25,000, but the resources of the stock
holders are great and this capital will
be Increased in a very short time to
$100,000, as it is a matter of foregone
conclusion that the rapid Increase in
the business will justify the additional
investment. KIghteen men will travel
over East Tennessee and everyone of
them Will be saving Red Rock, and
they will say It plain.
Red Rock Ginger Ale Is already one
of the best known drinks In this sec
tion of the country, as the Hackney
Company, one of the largest wholesale
houses in the South, has sold more than
$40,000 worth of Red Rock In the past
three month". The mm}.any now pro
poses to build a modern, up-to-date
plant and be ready for business be
tween September 1 and 16.
The Red Rock Ginger Ale Co. Is* en
larging its capacity every day. Al
ready four of the largest bottling plants
In the United States have been located
at Atlanta. Jacksonville, New Orleans
and Knoxville. It Is practically assur
ed that other plants are In contem
plation and will be opened In the near
future.
Red Rock has Increased In popular
ity to such an extent that the manu
facturers in Atlanta have found it
practically Impossible to supply all of
the trade direct from headquarters, so
they have co-operated In every man
ner possible with the various stock
companies for tho organization of
these bottling plants. The result has
been that the public has been sefved
promptly and with great satisfaction.

Alderman Key, who u.i- instrumental
In getting tho ordinance laid over,
stated that It would be impossible to
ascertain what these receipts were nnd
that tho city wobld have to rely entire
ly on the company’s veracity.
When tho rules were suspended, Cap
tain Kills first took the floor. In reply
to the objections mftde against the new
road by Joel Hurt, he stated that, In
his opinion, Mr. Hurt did not Intond

He then set forth the advantages of the

a new era In Atlanta’s history.

Liquor Men May Hire Minors.
■ The ordinance of Councilman Foster
forbidding minors to work In wholesale
liquor houses was amended so as to
allow persons 18 years of age or over
to work in wholesale houses with the
consent of parents or guardians. The
ago limit was fixed at 1*» years by tho
committee, but Councilman Faster suc
cessfully fought this down., saying it
defeated thtf very spirit of the ordl-
mmr.\
The ordinance prohibiting saloon
men from selling or giving liquor to
members of the pollco force under a
penalty of S100 or 30 days or the revo
cation of license was sent back to the
police board. The situation created
by the ordinance has been unique.
When it first came up many of tho
councllmen spoke for it. loiter tho
members of the police force showed
their strong aversion to It, and do
dared they would not vote for any on<
who had voted for It. About half of
Its supporters switched. Mayor Wood
ward spoke for the measure when It
first came up; but, afltr jts ptll^'w
wrote that the penalty was too heavy.
City Attorney Mayson construed this
veto and the council failed
pass the ordinance over the mayor's
veto. The vote Monday stood 10 to 10.
