MARIETTA, GA., Oct. 21st, 1910,
THE ATLANTA ELECTILON,
Atlanta will elect a Mayor on Friday,
21st,, to succeed Robert F. Maddox,
who declined to serve a second term,
Next to the election of a governor
the election of a mayor for Atlanta
concerns the people of Georgia more
deeply perhaps than any other elec
tion, Other Mayors concern their
respective communities exclusively,
The Mayor of Atlanta represents in a
way the people of the entire State, for
he is constantly called upon to wel
come great gatherings and to receive
and entertain the most prominent men
in the United States who visit Atlanta,
Nearly every president since the war
has been a guest of the city, some of
them several times. There is nearly
always some sort of convention going
on there, Delegations are sent to
Washington and other places and the
mayor figures in many of them. As
the representative of the Capital City
of the State the impression created
concerns all the people who are so
vitally interested in the progress of
our wonderful Bouthern metropolis,
It is only when Atlanta fails to get
together that an indifferent mayor is
chosen The election of Mr. Maddox
wae a hrilliant illnetratinn of what
united Atlanta means. He is one of
the splendid young men who stands
for all that has made Atlanta great and
upon whose shoulders the responsi
bilities have fallen with the passing
away of the Old Guard who laid the
foundation and created the far-famed
‘“‘Atlanta Spirit.”’ ‘‘Bob’”’ Maddox
would make a good governor, as he
has made a good mayor, and that is
the type of man who should occupy
the mayor’s chair.
There are two candidates, Courtland
S. Winn and James G Woodward.
Mr Woodward has many warm friends
and there is a very kind feeling toward
him in Atlanta, but there are occasions
when he cannot do all that the mayor
of Atlanta should be able to do. He
really ought to be sftisfied with the
honors Atlanta has conferreds upon
him. His election as the successor of
Robert F. Maddox would be regretted
by the people of the State who feel that
Atlanta represents all Georgia and that
they have much at stake in the elec
tion of a mayor of that city.
The Union Phosphate company’s'}
magnificent new plant, capitalized at

Phosphate company, and other promi

who was elected a member of the
Prison Commission to succeed E. R
Hutchens has been sworn in and has
been elected chairman of the Board,
The other members are General
Clement A. Evans and Wiley Wil
liams.
Since the election George Rucker has
gotten back on the job of editing the
Alpharetta Free Press and it sparkles
as of yore. A mighty bright paper it
is and Milton county peopie ought to
be proud of it and doubtless they are.

thorpe, erected in Savannah by the
state, will be unveiled on November
23, Savannah will provide an ex
tensive program of parades ete. cover

October 26th. Why wait? Clean up
your premises today. it may save the
life of a member of vour family.

Tribune, passed through Marietta last

15 NOW IN FORCE.
What the Man in the Ma
chine Must Do and what
the other Mustn’t Do.
The legislature at its recent session
passed a law in regard to the running
of automobiles, copies of which will
soon be distributed by the Secretary of
State. .
Stripped of unnecessary verbiage the
law provides as follows:
All automobiles must be registered
‘with the Secretary of State, giving
name of owner, make of machine, etc.,
‘the fee for this being $2. The Secre
‘tary of State furnishes a metal number
'which must at all times be kept plain
ly visible.
'} From one hour after sunset to one
;after sunrise every machine be
ing operated must carry a white light
in front that will throw a bright light
Lat least 100 feet, with a red light in the
‘rear that will illuminate the machine
1 number.
- Machines must not be operated upon
the highways at a higher speed than
is ‘‘reasonable and proper,’”’ or so as
to endanger life or limb or the safety
of property, and upon approaching a
bridge, dam, high embankment sharp
curve, descent, or crossing of intersect
ing highways or railway crossings the
machine must be brought to a speed
of not more than six miles an hour.
Upon approaching a pedestrian in a;
roadway or a horse or other drait‘
animal being ridden or driven the
person operating the machine must{
give reasonable warning of its ap
proach, by the use of a bell, horn,
gong or other signal, and use every
reasonable precaution to insure the
safety of such person or animal;
and in the case of horses or other draft
animals, to prevent frightening them.
A person operating a machine shall
on request or on signal by putting up
the hand or other sign of distress of a
person riding, leading or driving a
restive horse or other draft animal,
bring such machine immediately to a
stop, and if traveling in the opposite
direction remain stationery so long as
may be reasonable to allow such horse
or animal to pass, and if traveling in
the same direction use reasonable
caution in passing such horse or
animal, and, in case such horse or
animal appears frightened, or the
person operating the machine is re
quested to do so, such person shall
cause the motor ol the machine to
cease running so long as shall be
reasonably necessary to insure the
safety of others,
It is made unlawful for any person
who is intoxicated to operate a ma
chine and no one under sixteen may
operate a machine unless said minor
shall have had twelve months experi
ence and must be accompanied by the
owner of the machine.
~ The act provides that every owner or
ioperator of a machine shall have
‘equal rights upon the public highways
