the mayor and council called an elec-
tlon to decide whether or not the city
should Issue bonds for the purpose of
putting In a system of sewerage, the
water necessary for the flushing of the
same to be furnished by the Georgia
Manufacturing and Public Service
Company.
The proposition met with opposition
and brought on a hot fight between the
people who wanted the city to own the
waterworks and furntsh their own wa
ter and those who favored private own
ership of the waterworks. The oppo
sition to private ownership appeared to
be so overwhelming that the mayor and
council called the election oft a few
days before the time.
WASN’T BROAD ENOUGH.
The whole trouble seemed (o be, aa
gathered at the time from the almost
unanimous expressions of the opposi
tion, that ths great majority of the
people were In favor of sewerage, pro
vided the municipality would own and
operate the waterworks In connection
with them; otherwise, they were op
posed to it. They said that if the city
owned the sewers the city should also
own the water; otherwise, the city
would be putting Itself in a position
where It would be compelled to have
water, thereby placing Itself at the
mercy of the private corporation,
which had a monopoly of the water.
Granting that the city could haVe made
a satisfactory contract with the Geor
gia Manufacturing and Public Service
Company for water to flush the sewers,
they argued, the profits of the busi
ness which must necessarily come out
of the pockets of the people could be
saved to them by municipal ownership
of the water.
In obedience to this demand of pub
lic sentiment, the mayor amt council
have called an election for tomorrow,
as stated above, and the fight for wa
terworks and sewerage owned and op
erated by the city Is on. lUJs now up
to ths people to settle this Important
matter, and to say by their votes
whether or not these improvements,
which are freely conceded to be so nes-
essary to the progress and upbuilding
of the city, shall be a glorious reality
or a shameful failure.
WHAT THE RESULT MEANS.
The result will determine whether or
not the city shall own Its own water
works and sewerage system, thereby
putting Marietta among, the most pro
gressive cities of the country and In
suring first-class sanitary conditions,
also securing first-class protection and
efficiency in cases of fire, or whether
the city shall continue subservient to a
private corporation, with lnsufllclent
water supply and no sewerage system,
thereby endangering the health and
lives of Its citizens.
The election will be decisive, as the
last legislature authorised the Issuance
of 650,000 of water bonds nnd 550,000
of sewerage bonds. . The election to
morrow Is called for the purpose of
passing upon these bonds. To carry
448 votes- must be polled favoring the
proposition, or two-thirds of the total
vote cast for mayor In last election,
CORPORATION MAKES FIGHT.
The present waterworks Is owned by
the Georgia Manufacturing and Public
Service Company, and the olficlale and
friends of that company are making a
vigorous and . strenuous campaign
against the Issuance of bonds, claim
ing the passage means Increased taxa
tion on tho laboring classes. The
friends of the measure are trying to
show that the passage means not only
a healthier city, but that the water
works plant will In a few years not
only pay the bonds, but will be a source
of handsome Income to the city, which
If not needed to Increase and improve
the plant, can be diverted to extend
ing and Improving other city property,
schools, etc.
Should the bonds carry, It Is proba
ble that the city will make the Geor
gia Manufacturing and Public Service
Company a fair offer for their plant,
and If accepted, Improve It to a degree
that will Insure amfle protection in
case of fires and add sewerage.
Should the bonds be secured, there
no doubt that Marietta's population
would soon be doubled In numbers and
the city would be greatly benefited and
Improved. Among the Improvements
promised Is a 650,000 h0, *’v.
The following are some of the views or
The Marietta Journal and leading cltt-
xens regarding municipal ownership:
THE MARIETTA'JOURNAL.
The Marietta Journal says:
"The Importance of eecurlng two-
thirds of the registered voters in favor
these measures Is urgent. Marietta
can not lag In providing for waterworks
and sewerage. The present 'J“ter'
works Is owned by a private corpora
tion, and »he Pressure In the IndPlency
of a fire Is Inadequate to give »P««dy
and efficient service. Our people by
owning their own waterworks can
make and save enoughi to pay the In
terest and principal In 30 years. These
payments are not for the present gen
eration to foot, but posterity will help
to pny for It. thus distributing the
burden along for 30 years, and no one
W “it h ls r uaelesa to postpone and delay
what the town absolutely needs.
Health of citizens, adequate fire pro
tection and plenty of ''aterare the
deslderatums *hat should urge all^vo
ters to vote for these needed public
U, "Come out next Saturday and vote to
put Marietta In the class of progressive
towns. Waterworks and s*'*'*™** “T®
needed, and the voters "hould be pa
triotic enough to secure them next
Saturday by voting for them.
W. A. MILLER, M. D.
"The votere of Marietta have never
been called upon to decide n question
of more vital Importance to the city
than that of Issuing bonds for water
works and aewere. The health of a city
la dependent, to-a great extent, upon
pure water and thorough drainage.
While this Is only one of the many
benefits to be derived by the city, tide,
and this alone, ought to be sufficient
reason to cause each voter who haa the
welfare of the city at heart, to come
out and vote for these bonds."
J. M. FOWLER.
J. M. Fowler, merchant and member
of council, aald: “I am In favor of mu-
ulclpal ownership of all public utilities.
and you can not make that point too
strong for me. The city is now paying
enough rent each year to a private
concern for water to almost pay the
Interest on the amount of bonds neces
aary to build the waterworks. The san
Itary condition of tho town t- «,m,
t li I n fir IIcivp. Htn! we seem to hnv-
rcached the point where we are com
pellod to have sewers."
J. E. DOBBS.
J. E. Dobbs, warehouseman and
grain dealer, aald: "I am strongly In
favor of the bonds. 1 think the people
will make a great mistake If they allow
this movement to fall. I understand
that tome who are In favor of private
ownership of wnter nre going to vote
for sewers and against waterworks, and
thus defeat the municipal ownership
Idea. I do not know If this Is true or
not, but for fear that It Is I expect to
vote for waterworks and against sew
ers. I will head off at least one of
them." .
HARRY HAYNES.
Harry Haynes, a prominent business
man of Marietta, made the following
statement: "I am heartily In favor of
municipal ownership of waterworks and
electric lights. It Is not a question of
sentiment with me, but an absolute
necessity and a sound business propo
sltlon.”
LAKE 8MITH.
Lake Smith, a prominent business
man of Atlanta: “The water question Is
a rather sore point with me. I built a
new home within four blocks of the
court house on a residence street that
Is building up on both sides and In or
der to get water I had to Invest some
thing over 650 In a water main, and am
practically without fire protection. I
am heartily In favor of better water
service and better sewerage In Marlet
ta. It la a fact that a great many peo
ple would build homes in Marietta If
they could get water facilities and
sewer connections. The two are In
separable.”
DR. C. T. NOLAN.
Dr. C. T. Nolan, one of the leading
physicians of the city, Is enthusiastic
In his support of the bonds. When
approached about the matter he said:
"Marietta la badly In need of a sewer
age system, and I think It would be a
very unfortunate thing for this town
should the bonds to be Issued for sew
erage be defeated. 1 am also In favor
of the city owning Its own water
works.”

SACREDNESS OF MARRIAGE
By LANDON CARTER.
(Copyright, 1906, by Amerlcan-Journol
Examiner.)
Two are better than one: because
they have a good reward for thelf la
bor. For If they fall the one will
lift up hla fellow; but woe to him that
la alone when he falleth, for he hath
not another to help him up. * 1
And If one prevail against him, two
shall withstand him, and a three-fold
cord is not quickly broken.’’—Eccle
siastes.
In this practical age every relation
ship In life—even the sacredness of
marriage—seems to undergo public
criticism, and when the material value
and general "pros and cons” are by
some weighed In the scales with love—
and when to those dls|prted minds af
fection la apparently overbalanced. It la
then too late to realize that there are
sadder losses than death, and that to
bury love or Its poazlble chances Is a
much deeper sorrow than to bury a
loved, one—this latter ennobles life,
whereas the former can only degrade.
"Men do not gather grapes off thorns
or figs off thistles,” neither la there any
compensation to be found for the hu
man who feels that the highest rela
tionship «of life has proven a failure
nnd that the possibility of happiness
has been suggested, but forever
eclipsed. a
In connection with criticism, how
ever, at all times and on all subject*.
It haa been. Is nnd will ever be Inevit
able, and with the true and proper
standards and with a just spirit em
ployed, th* knowledge thus gained
would be of Invaluable assistance In
making nice distinctions, but when the
outcome of marriage Is judged by the
common standards of material gains
and general market values are placed-
upon sentiment, then. Indeed, must re
sults prove disastrous.
From the true standard of love It
a divine mystery the way the human
heart turns to one other one of all the
world and makes It easier to overcome
Obstacles for that particular love than
to accept all other forms of material
luxury. “And Jacob served 'seven years
for Rachel and they seemed to him
but a few days for the love he had
her."
Ouch adoration Is hardly distinguish
able from religious feeling and only
upon zuch type of love as a foundation
can marriage with any surety be based,
for it 1* the beginning of the home epic
which colors every advancing year.
It Is strange that poets dwelt so con
tlnually upon "first love” rather than
that which comes from deeper rooted
affections and the greater experiences
which tenderly bind together the past
and present with deep vibrations and
In which one finds strength for every
misfortune, for such love eases many
paths and find* many entrances whero
gold could never gain admittance. Such
love has a breath of poetry which has
S >wer to ennoble every phase of life.
ut to know this biggest love one has
to do more than ask or will, for life en
tails suffering ns the noblest means of
purifying, and the higher life begins
whan one learns to suffer and stycrl-
flee and bow before divine law*. Such
may seam hard, but It la not true love
that makes mil things easy; ft makes
us choose what la difficult. Such la
the means of wisdom and happiness.
That wisdom la the religion of the
Cross. Every deep feeling creates a
consciousness of Its own, has Ita own
halo, and In proportion to tbe affection
existing between man and wife comas
the greatest power and defense. What
greater thing !•'there for two human
souls than to feel that they are joined
for life, to strengthen each other In all
labor, to rest on each other In all sor
row, to minister to each other In all
twin—and to be one with each other In

BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION.
Tolo Hall," Bath, Georgia, the beau
tiful , country home of Mr. John G.
Green, waa the scene on Sunday, Octo
ber 7, of one of the moat enjoyable
gatherings In the hlatory of tbla hos
pitable home, ths occasion being the
celebration In the form of a dining of
the eightieth birthday of tho hale and
hearty host.
51 r. Green Is a truly remarkable man.
He has a moat wonderful memory,
never forgetting anything once seen or
heard, and hla mind readily runs back
tq.eventa that happened when he waa a
lad of ten, and hla brain Is a store
house of events, both trivial and Impor
tant, that have occurred In the last
sovanty-odd year*. He attribute* hla
wonderfully good health to hla regular
habits. He haa nlway* been strictly
temperate, never using tobacco o
whisky, and today he stand* aa a Ilv
Ing monument of a long and useful life
well spent.
The dinner at which the genial host
entertained hla friends, surrounded by
hi* children and grandchildren, waa n
most elaborate and sumptuous repast,
characteristic of ante-bellum days.
It was prepared and served by old
family servants, their children and
grandchildren. The dining room was
beautifully decorated In golden rod and
ferns, while white roses and asparagus
ferns lent a graceful charm to the long
table, set diagonally tcron the spacious
dining room to afford room for the
number seated around the board. A
huge old-fashioned pound cake Illumi
nated with eighty candle* was placed
before the happy host, when the cake*
and Ices ware served. In mellow old
wine his health was drunk by all pres
ent, with the wish that he might be
spared to celebrate In the same way
many more birthday*.
Assisting Mr. Green In entertaining
hla guests were hla daughters, Mrs.
Annie Green Burdell and Miss Roaa-
mond E. Green, of Bath, hla son and
daughter, Mr. and Mr*. L. Clifford
Green, of Atlanta, and hla grandson,
Mr. Arthur Burdell, of Dublin, Ga.

MRS, DEXTER TO SUE
EOR INSULT BY
The mistake of a train hand In or
dering Mrs. Howard W. Dealer Into
the negro compartment of the smoking
car Is the reason for a damage ault
agalnat the Georgia railroad which
will be filed In Decatur.
Mrs. Dexter boarded the train
Stone Mountain Tuesday afternoon,
bringing with her a negro servant girl.
Just after the train pulled out one of
the train crew told her. that tbe conch
In which ahe waa riding waa no place
for her, and ordered her to follow film,
she claims, and he led the way to th*
negro compartment.
It was not until Mrs. Daxter had
teen the negroes In the forward coach
that she realised why the train hand
had brought her there. It Is claimed
that when she demanded an explana
tion the trainman told her that sh*
ought to have gone where ahe belonged
In the first place. Not until she had
bitterly protested did the railroad em
ployee who had conducted her forward
reaHxe his blunder.
