UNFAVORABLE PUBLICITY
that he intended to become a candi
date for Governor in opposition to
Governor Hardman. Since he an
nounced his candidacy he has gone
in and out through the State de
nouncing Gov. Hardman’s adminis
tration as a failure, that he has failed
to carry out any of his policies or
promises.
Only one session of the Legisla
ture since Gov. Hardman ha* been
chief executive, and he made certain
recommendations and urged the h-gis
la’.ure to do certain things. In that
legislature Mr. River.- was an ol»-
structionist.
The people of Georgia like fair
play. They know that Mr. River-
was playing a game, a game which
he did not play fairly.
That he hay behind him certain
j forces in polities, that have endeavor
ed to build up a machine, and con
trol the affairs of the State is be
lieved by a large number of the
citizens of Georgia, nad that he knew
when he was blocking Gov. Hard
man from carrying out his promises
and pledge.- that this crowd would
be fo» him for Governor, they be
lieve equally as strong.
Mr. Rivers has no claim upon the
people of Georgia for them to elect
him Governor.
Mill edge villeL’ city fathers hav
entered into a wrangle over h
water situation here, a group cor
tending that the water supply i
dangerous and inadequate and ui

tention that ‘.he water supply is meet

tests from the State Board of Health, i
Reaching a climax Wednesday, the'
entire affair was aired out and both j
sides had ample opportunity to
empty their pleen# of all animosity.
The idea of the meeting Wednes-J
day was to repudiate* a circular that | .Mr. W. A. Wnlke
had been issued by Dr. Anderson, a I city’s best known citizens, eelebra
member of the water committee, in led his 75th birthday today, Septcn

sufficiently chlorinated was safe
and that the water was at the pres
ent safe and fitting to drink due to
the heavy chlorination.
Now this affair is entirely local
and one that can he settled within
our own gates. Dr. Anderson, con-
cientious in his changes, has not gone
out side to criticize. The members
of the council, who are in opposition
to Dr. Andersons views, have been
free :o confine their differences with
him to Millec^eville.
The water plant needs repairs is
admitted by both sides and it is time
for action and not for u split of
friendship among the body of men
to whom we took to safe guard our
interests.
The publicity that has been given
the order of Dr. Anderson and the
rewage contamination is damaging
to the progress and prosperity of our
town. It is doing our schools irre-
pnirable harm and many students
will be lost to both schools because
of statement* that came out in the
daily press that we are drinking
filtered sewerage from tubercular
people. The statement is entirely
misleading and unducly alarming,
the story that one issue told to l
world will take many weeks to 1
down and explain. We certainly do
not need this kind of publicity and
it is far better that we keep the#
things within our own family. Jus«.|

SHERIFF S. L. TERRY IN
HOSPITAL IN ATLANTA
Sheriff S. L. Terry left the latter
part of the past week for Atlanta,
where he is undergoing treatment at
the Piedmont Sanitarium.
Sheriff Terry has for some time
been suffering from a ho re foot, and
it became so painful -and troublesome
that he decided to go to the Sani-
taiium to have it treated.
The latest news from him is that
he is gettting along well, and hope*
to be able to return home at a early
date.
Sheriff Terry is popular with the
Acuities people of Milledgevlile and Baldw
•ounty, and they wish .for him
tpeedy recovery.
nmissioner Williams is
a thoroughly competent man, and
under the condition? at the water
plant, is producing unusually good
water, and it is to the splendid abili
ty of Mr. Williams and Mr. Smith
that we are given good water.
I* is no time for tight line? to be
dra - » n between member# of the coun
cil hut there should be a decision
reached and the entire body join to
gether to study the needs and reach
a sane and safe decision to best
remedy them. It should be their
duty to make the changes as rapidly
as finance? will permit.
The water plant is on thin ice,
according to the member# of the
State Board of Health who made
the inspection Wednesday and it i
the future that should be guarded.
GOVERNORS RACE HAS
INTERESTING FEATURE
The Governor*s race in Georgia
presents a very intreesting feati
that the people of Georgia should
take into consideration.
Governor Hardman announces,
when he was making his race for
Governor, that he would carry out
certain pojicies* and on this plat-
(prm he won, and was inaugurated.
Vhen the legislature 'convened,
hr made the first move to cariy
Itis platform, he found* himself-Yttn-
ftonted with a number of Senator*
'Vho had united to prevent hitn fram
. accomplishing his intentions, among
leader? was Senator Ed Rivers,
who led the fight against the Gover
nor. He was then, judging by follow
ing events, priming himself to be
come a candidate for Governor. In

Candidate for Pub^c Service
Commissioner, Has Hi's Race Won
Mr. Knight has served -n the Com
mission since last Jam. /, and is
now familiar with the work and de
vote? hi? entire time and gives his
best thought to the duties of the
office.
His only opponent. Mr. Trox
Bankston, has made four races for a
place on the Commission, as follows:
In 1912. 1918, 1920 and in 1922,
and was decisively beaten each time;
the last time he failed to carry his
home county.
We recall Mint Mr. Knight took an
active part in fighting a resolution
which proposed to sell the old man
sion property belong to the State,
and, as a result the proprety was
leased, which saved to the State sev
eral hundred thousand dollars. He
also assisted in bringing into the
State’s Treasury frerm the City of
Chattanooga, 2196.0-io.00.
Vote for him September 12th. He
I has made good as a Commissioner.
We have done during the yeai
rome charity work, while our funds
were not sufficient to do what w<
should have liked to have done, yet
we hope that each and every citizen
will respond liberally to this worthy
cause this year and enable u.*
take care of each and every
