Mayor Clay and Water Board
Expect to Have an Appro
priate Celebration.
The present plan of the Water Board
i 8 to turn on the water from the new
city waterworks on Thursday, Novem
ber 10th.
The stand pipe has been completed
and all that now remains to be done is
to connect with the two artesian wells.
The down town office of the Depart
ment will be in the Nolan building,
quarters there having been already
rented.
Mr. George Dobbs, who has been the
engineer at the Marietta Ice plant, has
been elected by the Board to serve as
engineer at the water plant. The other
persons employed in the Department
will be selected by the Superintendent,
Mr.T. M. Early.
It is intended that appropriate
ceremonies shall mark the turning on
of the water. One feature of the ex
ercises will be the laying of the corner
stone of the building which has been
already completed. Marietta travels
too fast to wait on cornerstones. The
Gem City builds buildings and lays
the cornerstones afterward, at least it
does so in this instance. When work
on the waterworks building was start
ed a place was left for the cornerstone
and it will be placed in position on
November 10th as a part of the cere
monies,
Mayor Clay and the other members
of the Board have worked hard to bring
the water system to a consummation
and they look forward with pleasant
anticipations to the time when the
task shall have been completed.
We are sorry that we could
not secure help enough last Sat
urday, but next Saturday we
will have two ladies extra to wait
on the trade. You will get bet
ter service, SO come to see us.—

KRANTED PARDONS.
Election Managers who Pleaded
Guilty on Friday were
Pardoned Saturday.
The political row in Gilmer county
took a sudden turn Saturday when
Governor Brown pardoned all the men
who had been convicted or pleaded
guilty to charges of violating the elec
tion laws.
There were twenty-two in the bunch,
including A. H., Burtz who had been
sentenced to pay a fine of $5OO or serve
twelve months. The others had enter
ed pleas of guilty and had been
sentenced to pay fines of $2O and costs,
making a total assessment of $5O,
Mr. Burtz claimed that he was not
allowed time in which to prepare his
defense. The others claimed that they
had entered pleas of guilty because
they felt that they would not be given
fair trials. Burtz had made a motion
for new trial in his case and it had
been granted by Judge Morris.
The charge against the culprits was
that, as election managers in the
Primary, they had allowed men to vote
whose names were not on the list.
The registrars had stricken the
names, it was claimed, for non pay
ment of taxes and the election mana
gers, it seems, allowed them to vote
anyhow,
The application for clemency did not
go to the Pardon Board but went direct
to the Governor. The order granting
a new trial to Burtz was signed Satur
day morning and he was pardoned the
same day. The others pleaded guilty
Friday and were pardoned Saturday.
In addition to Burtz those pardoned
were: J. S. Waters, H. T. Weaver,
Bailey Wimpy, Alex Kimsey, Jason
Akin, J. L. West, J. H. M. Weaver,
Richard Brown, B F. Collins, W. M,
Swancey, Wm, Teem, J. C. H, Teem,
J. B. West, R, D, Mathis, L. B.
Chastain, B. W. Mulkey, Coon Long,
M. F. Corbin, Bob Kinisey, R. 1..
Allen and 8. G. Clayton.
Solicitor General Brooke apposed
the pardons. The petitioners were
represented by Colonel Charles H.
Griffin and Colonel D. W. Blair.
Governor Rrown held that the prosecu
tions were for political reasons and
not with a view to up-holding the
majesty of the law,

Business Was Lively
in the Mavor’s Court.
Mayor Clay did a big business in
the Mayor’s court Monday night. The
attendance was so large that the
Superior Court room had to be used.
The fines amounted to about $3OO and
and the cash collections to $225. The
balance will be worked out on the
streets. The fines amounted to half
as much as for the entire year of 1009
Mayor Clay seemsto think the violators
of the law ought to at least ‘‘pull their
own weight.”’ There were three blind
tiger cases that were bound over to the
Superior court,
