BLANK8 FOR MEMBERSHIP. The Georgian this afternoon received from the printers 2,000 ap plication blanks for membership In the Municipal Ownership League. These blanks will gladly be supplied upon request. We want whoever takes them out to be sure that the applicant aigna in person. Unfortu nately the corporations have a great deal of power, and they do not hes itate to use it when one over whom they have power goes against their wishes. * A call at The Georgian office for membership blanks will be sup plied gladly. We hope every patriotic citizen In Atlanta will sign and signify his Intention to work In the Interest of the people. 2,000 RETAIL DRUGGISTS ARE ASSEMBLING HERE Continued from Page One. at 4 o'clock.

New Or- First vice president, Charles H. “Had municipal ownership been put to a vote by the League of American Municipalities It would have swept the convention," said Charles M. Roberts, councilman from the Eighth ward, who returned from Chicago Monday morn ing, where the league has been In ses sion. "I never saw' such enthusiasm on any subject. Municipal ownership Is the coming thing. It is In the air. It covers the country." Mr. Roberts was chairman of a spe cial committee of council, of which Councilman Charles Chosewood, of the Third ward, and Aldcrman-elect A. L. Curtis, of the First ward, were the remaining members. Commissioner of Public Works Collier and Mayor Wood ward were to have attended the con vention, but were prevented from do ing so on account of unlooked-for de mands upon their time at home. There were between six and eight hundred delegates from alt sections of the United States and Canada,” con tinued Mr. Roberts. "We were In ses sion four days, during which time many speeches were made, and there ns much discussion as to the best methods of governing a city. I got much valuable Information. Municipal Ownership. "But municipal ownership had the call over everything. A great major ity of the delegates \yere In favor of every city owning Its electric lighting plant. A great many of them wanted the gas plants to he owned by the city. Then there were many others who wanted the electric lighting plants, the gas plants and the street railways mu nicipally owned. "All of these things were discussed and debated. Strong speeches were made for and agnlnst municipal own ership. Some of the most brilliant delegates took the side against munici pal ownership, but the sentiment could not be downed, no matter how strong the argument. I tell you, I believe the city council of Atlanta Is going to take this thing up and put It through.” Mr. Roberts said he voiced the senti ments of many of the delegates. It Is a well-known fact that Alderman-elect Curtis Is a strong municipal owner- hip man. Councilman Chosewood has lever been requested for an expression. Every member of council Is Invited to Join the Municipal Ownership League, however, and It Is believed that many of them will put themselves on record as being In the tight for the people. Ownership Man Named President. The League of American Municipali ties elected Mayor Dunne, of Chicago, Its president. Mayor Dunne Is an out and out municipal ownership man, and was elected mayor of Chicago on that platform. He has been second only to Tom. L. Johnson, mayor of Cleveland. In his fight for municipal ownership and lower charges for public utilities. The next meeting of the League of American Municipalities will he held In Norfolk, Vn. It Is believed that the sentiment which pervaded the convention almost to unanimity will spread over the en tire country. The municipal ownership men are telling the people of every city Just what took place and they are pointing out that a great majority of the delegates were men well seasoned In affairs politically, and had seen long service as representatives of the peo ple. The Georgian printed on Saturday a comparison of the charges made by Avery, Chicago. Second vice president, William Ridgeway, Atlantic City. Third vice president, 8. C. Davis, Nashville.

The comparison was for an equal number of hours during the year. The munici pal plarfts supplied lights at from one to tw'o-thlrds less than the corporation owned plants. That comparison had It« effect, for Monday morning many additional members were enrolled for the local Municipal Ownership League. An Exorbitant Charge. J. C. Zuber, a carpenter, who resides at 81 Central avenue, called by The Georgian office and requested that he bo put down ns a member of the league. “They charged me $12 for gas one month," said Mr. Zubar, "and I had not used any more gas than ordi narily. I want municipal ownership and I want it soon. I am sure it would be a great thing for the city. We W’ould get a square deal." F. M. Loveless, of 22 Houston street, when sending In his application, ex pressed the opinion that the street railways should be municipally owned. He is one of many who have expressed the same opinion. Charles A. Church, a druggist, of 79 Trinity avenue says: "Let the good work move rapidly on.” We are moving It as rapidly as pos sible. If the people will simply rise up In their might and assert them selves to aid us In this fight municipal ownership will soon be put into prac tice In Atlanta, and will not be a beautiful theory of which many have dreamed, hut comparatively few acted. J. H. Cain, of 54 Hood street says "let us own our gas and electric lighting plants; also street railways and other public utilities." Mr. Cain is one of those who wants to do It all at once. There are many others. Possibly ev erything could be accomplished at one fell swoop, but we nre of the opinion that It would be far better to make a beginning with an electric lighting plant for the streets. Then we could progress to a gas plant. After these had proved satisfactory another step could be taken, and If It was deemed practicable the city could own and op erate a street railway. We are strongly In favor of municipal control >f street railways, but we are of the opinion that this is an inopportune time to take over the street railways to be owned outright. That will come In time. Hopes of Success, R. W. Gable, a claim clerk, of 176 Luckle street, says: “Here's hoping that we succeed.” We would add that there is no pos sibility of failure provided the people assert themselves. If Ihe people only remember that time Is u great factor In these things; that the corporations as able to organize and that time gives them an opportunity to organ ize, the people will assert themselves FIRST, and SUCCEED. Charles 11. Terry, a draughtsman, of 21 McDaniel street, says: it is Just what Atlanta needs. Push it." We ask Mr. Terry If he 1ms discover ed any* disposition on our part NOT to "push It?” We ARE "pushing It,” and we ask that everybody else "push It." We ask Mr. Terry to go to work and •push It." We are "pushing It” as much for him as for any one else. Let the people get togther and fight their battles In unison. If they sit quietly by ami wait for some one else to “push It” It will be a long time before the pe«*ple get what they want and WHAT THEY ARK ENTITLED TO. The corporations know how hard it Is to arouse the people. They are bid ing their time, these corporations, but quietly making preparations to meet the onslaught when It comes. If the people will only realize that they are making a fight In which hundreds of thousands of dollnrs will be spent to defeat their w 111 they w ill arouse them selves und show even more Interest than they have shown already. Own All Utilitioa. John H. Crawley, a salesman, of 41 EugcnU street, sends in his applica tion and asserts that the city should n "all other public utilities as well as gas and electric lighting plants." •Let the city own her dispensary, too," says John L. Haralson, a lawyer, of 402 Kiser building, which is touch ing on the prohibition question. We ure after the electricity and gas now. R. r. Sllllman, a salesman, of 64 Wil liams street, sent in his application as member to the league. Many of the numbers whose names we have printed have recently received onstdruble literature bearing on the iunkipol ow nership movement. NOT strange to say all this literature has hern AGAINST municipal ownership. Reasons have been pointed out why the municipalities should no* >wn their utilities. Every known argument, all >f which arc weak, has been used. Corporations Oppose Move. This Ip not strange. The corpora tions are opposed to municipal own ership. They have millions of dollars fight their battles. Part of their battle Is to convince th» people against the people. With this end In view bu reaus are established all over th«\ coun- Pamphlets arc printed and dis tributed broadcast. All of the daily over the United States are read, and every time the name of u person favoring municipal * wnershlp Is found that person is sent n "sample copy" of a periodical op)H>slng municipal own ership. The municipal owneishlp man. being Interested In everything pertain ing to civic pn-gn ss. reads the munici pal ownership pamphlet ALL LOST TIME TO BE MADE UP Owing to the Recent Disturbances in the City, We Temporarily Let Up on the Clos ing Out Sale. TODAY WE OPENED WITH GREAT BARGAINS There Will Be No Further Delay Now Until Everything Is Sold in the China and , Glassware Department. Ami that I* whore Hie psychology of the thins comes In. The corporations hope to set the numlclpal ownership nmn Interested to the point that lie will say to himself "perhaps there Is sound arsutnent on the other side. I w ill look this thing." > wnnt you to look Into the thins. We wnnt you to study the proposition pro and con. And then. If you are n rr.lr-nitmted. pntrfotlc cltlsen. you trill return to the same conclusion—for the people ur.d municipal ownership as For the past week it was almost useless to tell the public about the great sale that we now have on, for the unsettled condition of affairs around Atlanta kept hundreds of our best people indoors who would otherwise have visited town to do nec essary shopping. Knowing these facts so well we intentionally cut all advertising until absolute quietude prevailed throughout the city. Still there is a saying that “tis an ill wind that blows no one good,” and all last week while the ladies were not inclined to go shopping, we were making good use of the time gained by the absence of the great crowds we had in the China department all the week before. Every salesman has been quite busy opening up new goods and getting everything in readiness for the grand windup of this'department. These new goods wc speak of were goods bought four, five and six months ago, bought long before we ever dreamed of closing out the china and crockery departments. So you see you get the pick of the market when you buy from us in this, sale, and you absolutely get a reduction from 25 to 50 per cent even on these newest patterns (both Amer ican and imported). We are extremejy anxious to rush this sale, as this space will be immediately filled with toys for the holidays—hence we give you our word that anvthingyoti buy in this line will he a bargain. For instance, here are just a few items of the very newest goods opened. We have a beautiful pattern of English porce lain ware that will be disposed of in open stock, viz.: Sauce Boats, regular price 40c now 20c Cream Pitchers, regular price 25c, now 10c Milk Pitchers, regular price 40c, now 20c Covered Dishes, regular price $1.20, now.... 50c Covered Dishes (larger), regular $1.40, now... 75c Soup Turene, regular price $1.20, now...... 75c Plates (set of 6), regular price $1.00, now.,,, 50c Platters, regular price 30c, now 10c Platters, regular price 45c, now 25c Platters, regular price 75c, now 40c Platters, regular price $1.25, now 75c English Rockingham Tea Pots, the 35c value, for only 10 cents. 100-Piece Austrian China Dinner Set, regular price $27.50, now $18.50; this is a great bargain. 100-Piece Austrian China Dinner Set we have always sold for $22.50, but the price now is $14.50, 100-Piece Bassett China Dinner Set. something very desirable, for only $16.00, and $25.09 is the price the world over. This china will also be sold in open stock, at the same reductions. A few sets of 100-piece dinner, a very beautiful French design, for $18.50, regular $27.50. You miss a bargain if you let this go by. Now if you can use a cheaper set, we have an American Porcelain Dinner Set that will be sold for $8.50, just as long as they last. A beautiful Austrian Chinn Chocolate Set, cheap for $7.50, but we will close them out for just $5.00 a set. Now here is something pleasing. A genuine French China, Iland-painted Fish Set. Regular price $35.00, now $25.00 Dess decorated, regular price $18.00, now $12.00 Very plain, regular price $12.00, now $8.00 A few hand-painted Chop Dishes, very exquisite, $7.50 kind for $5.00; and the $2.00 style for only $1.35. Glass Pitchers with rpal cut stars for only $1.00, and we have never priced them for less than $3.00. These are nil right and this price is a great bargain. Now then, here is what everybody needs. Extra Wash Bowls, the regular $1.00, $1.50 and $2.00 kind, for just 50 cents. These come in various colors. Plain Glass Punch Bowl Sets, only $2.50 for the $4.50 kind. $10.00 will buy a $15.00 handsome etched Punch Bowl Set. There are hundreds and hundreds of things that we are unable to mention in this advertisement, but we can state emphatically, with our reputation behind the statement, that this closing out sale of our Chinn, Crockery and Glassware is absolutely bona fide, and you can depend upon it that if you buy any of these goods you get more than your money’s worth. Come on and get yourself some bargains and help us to wind up this end of our business. Come today. Sure von won’t regret it.

At a meeting of the relief committee which has taken charge of the distri bution of funds among those who suf fered during the riot, It was announced Monday morning that over $5,000 had been raised. The committee held session In Chief Joyner’s office at fire headquarters. Walter G. Cooper reported that he, In company with City Warden Thomas Evans, had visited some forty homes and had given relief by furnishing pro visions and small amounts of money. Up until the present time there have been reportejl 15 deaths and 27 In juries of rather a serious nature ns a result of the riot. Secretary C >oper and City Warden Evans have visited all of these homes. against the people and for corporate ownership. Be 8ure You Are Right. We'have studied ns much against municipal ownership as for municipal ownership. We wanted to be sure that A-e were right before we adopted a plan of action on this score. And we are convinced that municipal ownership Is the "most good for the most people,” as was stated recently at a meeting of council, when another matter was un der discussion. \\ e urge upon you the necessity for Immediate and concerted action. We ask that vou signify your Intention to fight with and for the people. The mil- nh lpal ownership move Is In the air. Thoughtful men have taken hold of the matter all over the country. Atlanta has ever been a progressive city. It becomes her II! to hit quietly by and then follow meekly In the footsteps of her si*ter cities. It gives her sister cities that much of a handicap.
