Purpose.
After many speeches, no little heated
argument and thirty-six ballots, W. Z.
Smith, who for lyrelve years haa been
connected with the city waterworka de
partment In different capacities, was
elected secretary of the department, to
succeed William Dlmmock, deceased,
at the regular meeting qf the water
board Wednesday afternoon.
From start to finish the outcome of
the election was looked forward to with
the greatest Interest. Two things were
positively proved by the outcome of
the race—Atlanta won't stand for cut
and dried political deals—and the oth
er—civil service Is gaining In strength.
The first ballot waa:
For Smith—Stocks, Dorsey, Wood
ward, Harwell. For Kilpatrick—Dun
can, Turner. McCullough, Pace, Rice,
For Lake—Lake.
The last ballot waa:
For Smith—Dorsey, Dunean, Turner,
Paee, Rice, Woodward, Harwell. For
Lake—Stock., Lake, McCullough.
The first ballot showed things wsre
evenly divided. There were five com
mlssloners for electing an “outsider'
and live for the civil service idea.
Throughout the long afternoon the
vole, were varied, w. W. Draper, ex-
Alderman LaHatte, B. L. Hearn, O. O.
Hannah and others of the candidate,
were voted for.
Because of a difference of opinion
nrng the commissioners the city at
torney was sent for and handed In ai
opinion on the eligibility of several o(
the candidates, it was unanimously
decided that Councilman Draper was
not eligible for the office. But the real
light came when some of the commis
sioners claimed that Saxe and Smith
were not eligible. City Attorney Slay-
eon would not say whether they were
or were not. In his opinion. The opin
ion he handed down leaned that way,
however. It was based along the lino
that no one holding a city position, who
had been elected to the office for a
stipulated length of time, was eligible
for other office until the term of the
one held expired or was resigned.
Mayor Woodward and Alderman
Harwell argued that there would be no
Incentive whatever for hard work in
“It >• offices unless the incumbents
could look forward to hlghnr positions
“If there was not such a thing a
promotion we would all be office boy
right now." aald Mayor Woodward,
and his words were loudly cheered by
the spectators crowding the water
works office.
Mayor Woodward stated that ....
providing that no one should hold two
or more offices at one time In the city
government was legislated so as to
throw out certain men who were Rt the
time holding three or four offices, and
not attending to their duties In any
one.
The final ballot was taken after a
strong speech by .Mayor Woodward,
who brought the matter down to per
sonal grounds. He asked whether
there was nnythlrg against either
Smith or Saxe, and declared If there
was ho wanted to know It. and ho
would chnngo his vote. Then he
asked the antl-civll service commis
sioners whPther nr not they ran their
business along civil service lines or held
a man In one place all Ids life.
Tit evote was called for. Commie
sloncr Stocks hold to his original vote
for Saxe. Dorsey voted as usual for
Smith: Duncan, one of the opposition,
broko the deadlock by voting fur
Smith: Lake voted for Saxe; Turner
voted for Smith, following the ex
ample of Duncan. McCullough, Pace
and even President Rico,-leader of the
opposition, voted for Smith, and, of
course. Mayor Woodward and Alder
man Harwell carried out their origi
nal plan by swelling the majority.
Rousing applause met the decision
and Secretary Smith won congratulated
on all sides.
Sir. Smith was bom In Conyers thir
ty-two years ago. He resides at 66
t'hprry atreet. Before entering tho
waterworks department twelve nnd a
half years hack he was In the city
marshal's office, where he held a posi
tion for three and a half years.
He Is one of the most popular and
efficient tnen In the depnrtmnit, and
haa made u study of the waterworks
business, having been connected wltti
it In almost every capacity.
