KEYSTONE FOUNDRY
HAS NEW MANAGER
W. A. Fow ler, an old Atlanta printer,
for the poet five years traveling repre.
eentatlve of the Keystone type foundry
In the Southern states, has Just been
placed In charge of the Atlanta house
of that company as manager.
Mr. Fowler la personally known to
nearly every printer and publisher
■outh of the Mason and Dixon line, and
all will be glad to know that hie un
tiring efforts In behalf of tho Koystono
have been rewarded by this promotion.
The Keystone type foundry Is a na
tional Institution, being the largest and
most Important Independent type-
Souvenirs every Friday night
at the New Kimball Palm Gar
den.
To the Editor of The Georgian:
Your paper on yesterday afternoon
contained a very full and complete ar
ticle showing the profits of ths water
works system of this city.. It was a
mdst gratifying report, and one which
every cltlstn of Atlanta would fed sat
Ufled.wlth If It were not for a popular
opinion on the part of many water con-
1 Burners that ths meters are Improperly
read, and that consumers are charged
unfair and exorbitant prices, not bastd
on the water they consume, but based
on a disposition oh the part of those In
charge of the management of the de
partment to show large earnings.
You have opened your columns to
discussion of municipal ownership. You
have used the waterworks system as
an Illustration. In your argument the
Impression Is left that the people are
not displeased or discontented with the
prices and their treatment on the part
of the waterworks department, but that
treatment • which they receive from
other public utility corporations causes
dissatisfaction and Irritation on the
part of the public. You extend to the
n the Impression that If these pub-
lltles were owned and managed
by the municipalities there would be
no cause for complaint; that everyone
would be treated fairly and with con
sideration; that there would be no
over-charges, and that the clttxsns, as a
rule, would be satisfied.
Now, let tie get at the tacts. Axe. the
majority pf the people of Atlanta sat
isfied with the prices which are charged
them for water? I do not mean the
price per thousand gallons, for this Is
placed at a moderate rate, but about
the reading of the meter*. .
It Is my Impression that If you open
your columns and oak for expressions
on this subject, promising not to pub
lish o> .dlvtllge ’ mimes; of* those com
plaining,. It will be A siffprlee to you tof
know how many’-ffeople Ihthib’clty-b*-
llcve they ore unfairly d«pU with at to
the amount of water they) eontume.
When they ComplUn to U!|e proper
authorities, are - three matters recti
fied? Are they satisfied?
I do not cars for you to use my name
In ’ connection with this, but simply
throw out this suggestion, as It Is a
subject In which the public Is very
much Interested and bears directly
upon the platform you h^vs adopted—
that Is, the satisfactory management
of the public utilities under the control
and ownership of ths city.
Personally, I have never arrived at a
definite decision as to my position on
the subject of the municipal owner
ship. It Is a broad question, and,there
Is ample argument for and against the
proposition.
I wish to congratulate your paper for
the reputation which It has earned as
to" fairness and as to being a clean
Journal. I wish for you the success
which you deserve.
Yours truly,
