Newspaper Page TextPage Two ADDRESS OF MAYORCLAY ! ~ TOTHE NEW COUNCIL. What The Mayor Said on . Taking Charge at the - First meeting. Mayor Clay’s address wag as follows: “GENTLEMEN: “*I do not believe it wuu!d be right to et this oceasion go by without thank ‘ing each of you gentlemen personally in behaif of myseif and the people of Marietta for agreeing to give yourtime and attention to the interests of this city for the next two years. The city should be congratulated on having six men as honest, as capable, and as clean a 8 you gentlemen are, and I am proud to be able to serve with you. ““I have no criticism to make of the old administration, and do not expect to let factions or prejudices, or any set of politicians govern me in any way in the discharge of my duty, and [ know each of you gentlemen feel the same. I intend that all my rulings shall be honest, and I shall do my best for Ma rietia and her interests, but I cannot do so without your co-operation, ““All of you gentlemen are older than I, and more experienced in business, and more eapable, and [ shall lean on you as a child lesns on his teacher for advice in running the affairs of Marie tta. | “In justice to the old administration, a 8 well as the new, I think it best that we check over all books for the last four years and find out the exact con - dition and inform the public through the news papers 8o that there will be no mistake as to the condition of our oity at the present time. However, the most important thing we have to consider, in my humb'e opinion, is the Fire Department. ' ‘The Fire Department of the City of Marietta has for years gone gradually down until et present it is in such a condition as to be a disgrace to this community, I believe we ought to organize a department, have paid men, horees, snd other fire apparatus, equal to the demands of our property owners and citizens. The city of Marietta is no longer s village, but a ecity, and our citizens are certainly entitled to fire proteciion. *'T am heart and soul in accord with the water Board in building a new Water System. I believe the city’s interest should be our interest and 1 believe all the people in Mariesta will rally around us and we will win the fight before us and give Marietta pure drinking water and ample fire protec ticn. Nothing short of this should or ‘would gatisfy. ““Our streetsare now in bad condition, partly on account of the sewers, and I believe the sewer men should stand up to their contract and place ali of them in 88 good condition as they found them. We ghould work all of our streets, back streets as well a 8 our front streets. Somae of our best citizens live in the out-skirts of our town, Olanville, Knitting Mill, Maple Ave., and other gections. These citizens pay their taxes and are entitled to just and fair consideration. *I do not know whko will be elected Policeman, but I know hoever is eleated will be compelled to discharge their duties honestly and faithfully with special privileges to none. ed to discharge their duties to none We do not intend to let any drinking occur on the Police Foree ot the city of Marietta next year. Asl have stated before in my first announcement, men who are law makers should not be violaters of the law themselves, and with your co-operation I intend to see that they are law abiding and that they discharge their full duty. ‘“We should go ahead and advertise our town and let the people know whet we have, our advantages of evary kind. I am tired of the vagrant negroes in this community who loaf all the time and eat from the white man’s kitchen and spend their timen idleness, gambling and other crimaes, and I expect 1o vigorously enforce the vagrancy law, ; *Labor was our friend and we should Bee that every laboring man is treated fair and square as well as every other citizen, and no man should be given preference on account of his financial condition. The man who works in our shops, I found to be as honest, as square and true and loyal as anyone you can find anywhere, and 1 believe that he should be treated square and fair, and we should be true to this elass of men and see that they, toy, get a square deal. *We have a military company that is 8 credit to Marietta. It is composed of our best young men and we as a Conu;e‘ {shuuld encourage them, not only with advies, but substautially. - It would not amount to a large lues in money, in fact, it is well invested, and . it would amount to a whole lot for ‘ in the future. g ‘‘Marietta has several large manufac m u Theze men do more ,&‘ Tying our place forward than i/‘ i % -»—-(,}m,;'&»;r; ,%wm&w 4 be prond of citizens Jike T. M. Bramby R. H. Northeutt, B. G. Brumhy, J. H, Barnes, T. M. Bramby, Jr., C. E, Hen derson, J. J. Black, A, V. Cortelyou, RB. W. Boone, R. M. McNeel, M. L. Me- Neel, E. B, Freyer, H. B. McOlatehey, J. B. Glover, J. T. Anderscn, W. A. DuPre, J. H. Boston, E. P. Dobbs, R, E. Butler, George Brown, RE. W. North cutt, and others, whose payroll daily makes Marietta what it is. We should ienconuge them in every way and al ways give them fair and equal treat -ment, : ~ “Itis with regret that we learn that i recently one of our largest manufactar ing plants was destroyed by fire, and l I understand that an effort is being madGe to hsve the plant moved to Tate, Ga. We hope this reportis untrue. It would be a great loss to this commu nity financially, and by removal of some of our best citizens, and we should gev behind them and urge them to stay and do what we can $0 encour luge them, They mean a whole lot to ! Marietta and we 1n turn should mean something to them. “Qur City Cemetery is a disgrace to this community. It should be taken care of at once. This last resting place of our loved ones now dead should have the proper care and treatment. l “There are a lot of other things that I might speak of which Marietta needs, but I don’t think it necessary to do so tonight. I know you people stand with me with the one idea and the one thought—Mariesta and the Future. Let us all join together, forgetting past differences, looking to the best inter est of our city, pulling together to build it up and not pull it down;in fact, let it be our sole aim, from this ‘night on, to work as never before for )sll that is good for the welfare of the ‘city and its citizens of every class and ‘eondition.” ‘ Paragraphs Exn Passant. - “Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and some have great ness thrust upon them,’’ so saida wise English essayist long ago and the re cent contest over the relative greatness over Lincoln and Davis by the Spruell pupils reminds us that the Southern leader was born great and continued 80 under all conditions, while the Martyred President achieved greatness and also had greatness thrust upon him by circumstances. *HR No Christmas gift received in Mari etta could have brought more joy and appreciative interest to its owner than did the beautiful pigeons sent to a small boy by Dr. Dunklin Reynolds. Two pairs—one buff and white and the other darkly iridescent and white— came in a crate tc the boy on Christ mas morning and they were so ex quisitely dainty and graceful, ‘‘so in nocent—arch and cunning—simple’’ they seemed to be celessial doves whose | white wings had wafted them down to earth, koo Two of the prttiest brunettes in town —one a dear little dimpled, soft-voiced maiden who has ‘‘fed on the roses and lain the lilies of life,”’ and the other a bright-eyed, pink-cheeked girl, radia ting vitality at high-tide— have been to ‘call on me lately. The first brought me a plate full of delicious white layer cake and told me about her many presents among which were silver ladles, spouns or forks sacred to chafing dishes, I gathered from her manner and her evident ap preciation of those aids to hospitality that she will develop into the lady-of the-house as defined by John Ruskin. You may recall that definition of the word lady derived from the Anglo- Saxon loaf-giver—one who sees to it that everyone depending upon her has something good to eat. We all admire brilliant talkers, musicians, writers, actresses, but the woman that wins love and grateful re membrance is always the sweet, un lselﬁsh lady who taxes herself to fur nish pleasure for others. She who gives small picnics, home parties and evenings at home with merriment | around a chafing-dish is always one to be desired as friend and wife. i XX¥ The other girl brought me one of her compositions to read and told me she had received a history of the world in several volumes among her gifts. She told me with the shining eyes and dimpling cheeks other maidens bend above new jewels and editions de luxe of favorate poets. Her ambition is to be like her English teacher—a serious minded woman whose dignity and de votion to duty reminds one of King Lear’s faithful Cordelia. This girl cherishes a high and praise worthy aim inlife-the best and noblest calling a woman can follow—and it is pleasant to reflect that no woman, how over talented and successful. need ‘‘sit by a lonely hearth and hear the nations praising her far off.” AL ~January, 1910, The long indoor life of winter makes the hicod weak, the system easily estehes cold and disease, Hollister’s Roeky Mouutain Tea is the greatest wiater remedy ; . wﬁ'g o R X e A v TR AT O i dedbieos I THE MARIETTA JOURNAL AND COURIER BUSINESS CARDS. - CLAY & MORRIS, LAWYERS.
