It seems to me that this la a very •ertoua condition, and a practice that should not be allowed to grow up or he tolerated. No man who !,s a member of the general council can af- 'f«rd t.# accept a fee front any one for the purpose of representing them In foie tn.it body upon any kind of claim. The general council ahould Immediately pass very stringent measures against any such practice."

Few men in public life in Atlanta have ever been more severely arraigned than was Mayor James cl. Woodward by Aldermnn K» v Tuesday afternoon. In the reply of the latter to the may or’s statement of the Information he had which led to the charge in Mm veto message that he had.heard of members of council accepting fees ft out w hisky man to represent them befoie council and the special committee on saloon licenses. The mayor's message produced a great sensation. Rut much iTT«»i* ; sen sational was the heated tilt between May «ir WtMnlward and Abler man Key In the omncll chamber, in which Ma>- or Woodward Interrupted the h|*.-.)i of the aldeunan with the exclamation. “It's an Infamous lie!" ami the reply of Alderman Key. In with li h«* not only cleared himself, the unanimous vote of council attesting this, hut In which he denounced .Mayor Woodward a-* « “vulgar liar" and "flunkey" or ••bosses." Mayor Not Condomnod. When Alderman Key was cleared by a unanimous vote, then an effort whs made to condemn Mayor Wo.nlwurd for making such n charge, “without evi dence to sustain the same.*' ns the reso lution was worded, nnd only by thr close VOtC Of » to K was the motion to table passed. Ni» charge was marie against Coun cilman Pomeroy, nor was any evi dence Introduced dlrrrtlr connecting “ him With any charge, but inasmuch as hfe name had t**en meiitlom-d previous ly In the press, council unanimously Voted hint tts full confidence Mayor Woodward staled In W« speech that he had heard of tt.dltitm Will?Vi In (aches the least suspicion of lmpro|*rr “conduct on the part of Major Pome roy. Thr councilman later gave the only fails which could possibly have connected Iris name with the matter, and these dhl not attach the remotest blame to him. His clear statement met with great ;t|H>hio*r. both from council and the crowd which filled the council chamber. Resolutions of Confidence.
