Stressed By John T. Alsop
Jacksonville Mayor Speaks
to Nearly 500 Augustans at
Dinner Here. Believes in
“Selling” a Town to its
Citizens
John T. Alsop, clty-bullding mayor
of Jacksonville-, Fla., carved himself
a niche in the hearts of half a thou
sand AußUßtuns who turned out Wed
nesday afternoon to hear Jackson
ville's biggest booster tell how to
make Augusta a bigger and a bet
ter city, at the occasion of a lunch
eon at the Hotel Richmond given by
the civic clubs of the city.
Accompanying Mayor Alsop were
Frank Owen, commissioner of public
utilities of the city of Jacksonville,
and Sheriff W. H. Dowling. of Du
vall County. Florida. Lath of the
distinguished visitors spoke along
lines of public welfare by way of
co-operation and hard work Induced
by an honest civic pride end ambi
tion.
President Herbert Orav. of the
Lions Club, addressed the big as
semblage on the subject of the Am
erican Constitution, explaining that
this was done every year—a day set
aside on which to talk about this
most remarkable document and teach
the people its true influence and im
port in the political status of the
world.
The "Rainbow Jasa Orchestra." of
the Jimmie Hodges company now
playing here, was "loaned" to the or
caelon and rendered a number of
beautiful and enjoyable eelertlons
during the serving of the luncheon.
JlrnmTe Hodges, himself, appeared and
coneented to sing a song, but he had
to sing two before he quit and the
crowd wanted more even then.
Chairman Andcrrsm C. Sibley. Presi
dent of the Exchange Club, thanked
Frank J. Miller. Jimmie Hodges and
the orchestra for this excellent enter
tainment.
Mayor Alsop. In hi* address, touch
#*d every phase of the situation in
Jacksonville relative to the city's part
In the operation of publlo utilities.
"The utilities of Jacksonville have
aide-tracked politics,"’ he declared.
-Wo have taken the city’s business
out of politics and put politics Into
business!” >
MAYOR BELIEVES
IN ADVERTISING.
Ths visiting rlly executive Is a
champion of publicity and advertis
ing, especially In the way of selling
n town to Its cltlxsus. *lf your own
people don't know what there I* to
your city, how In the world do you
expect tho doctrine to take root out
alde of your city?" he asked. U»
said that Jacksonville Is carrying on
a local advertising campaign In the
local papers, "selling" the town to
Jacksonville people, saying that ths
oily government had a regular annual
contract with the newspapers for a
given amount of spate per day.
••We bring greetings from the
•friendly city' and 1 believe It is the
best dty on earth; and until you be
gin thinking that about your heaut •
ful Augusta you can't expect her le
go very high In the estimation of peo
ple elsewhere," he declared.
In speaking of his natural-born love
for Georgia, the mayor said he was a
Mercer boy anil that SO years ago hs
was a "Georgia Colonel" —a young
lawyer, big hat and everything lie
said there were thirteen lawyers In
Cordele then and at the time the
town was only big enough for one, so
he h»(l to move. Not having enough
money to buy a ticket to Jaekson
vllle, he was given a ride all the way
by a friend 111 an express ear. Later
he was elected mayor over a multi
millionaire, Mayor Alsop said, who
boasted that ho had hoboed his way
Into Jacksonville on a freight train.
The express messenger friend of May
or Alsop wired his congratulations,
saying: "Hohoetng on a passenger
‘train taka** you faster, politically as
| well as Otherwise, than a freight."
"RINGERS" IN THE
MERCER-TECH GAME.
The Jacksonville mayor recalled
when ho was oil the Mercer football
teem mid played against Tech. He
said be was one half-back siul George
Stallings, the "mlreale man" of base
ball. played the other on the Mercer
I rent. George Stallings was rated a
"ringer" In the Tech game. But
Teach had a "ringer," too. who hap
pened to bo the present General Leo
nard Wood. The general got a black
eye In the game at the hands of the
two Mercer backs, according to the
"Jacksonville is Just a llttls bit
'closer to Augusta than any other city
In the south," said the visiting may
or. ns he commented on the Georgia
.4 Florida railway as the connecting
link between the two towns. "We
are planning a big friendship booster
tour for the near future, and we are
going to take It over the G. A F. to
Augusta."
With reference to the advertised
claim that Mayor Alsop was coming
•here to show Anauatana how to make
Augusta more like Jacksonville, ths
mayor said hs thought Jacksonville
could take a few timely tips from Au
gutsa "Our trip here hes been en
1 Inspiration. Tou have a great many
; things 1 wish we had In Jackson
ville,” he said
lie an optimist." urged ths speak
er, "tolerate no knockers. Tell them
all to pull with you or pull out!”
Likening his work In Jacksonville
to a football gams, the mayor said:
"1 am merely carrying the ball. If It
wasn't for the wonderful teamwork 1
am getting from the civic organisa
tions and the cltltens in general, the
ball couldn't go far. I told them
that 1 was carrying the hall but that
it was up to them to run the Inter
-1 ferencr “ Taking his lllustretlons Inin
1 baseball, he saTd thnt Augusta had
contributed the greatest sacrifice hit
-1 ler to the game tnat baseball had
ever known: ths great Ty Cobb.
1 "Babe Ruth and his home runs sre
'alright, but you need saerlflc# hits
1 very often to win a ball game. Ksc
-1 rifles hits In your work for your
l town are whet you need "
i HAD riVE BOAT*
■ 39 TEARS AGO.
In a brief reference to the Sevan-
Ineh river, Meyor Alsop asked. "How
-many boats on the Savannah river
■ today? Tou bad five there thirty
l sears ago 1 understand you have
'one now that runs unee m a while."
.He said the business interests of
'Jacksonville had worked and worked
' until the St. John's river was made
'navigable and kept eo by the gov-
I eminent. According to his ttgurel,
1 it has meant an enormous saving in
'rates, he declaring tnat the rate from
■ New York to Jacksonville Is cheaper
> than to Atlanta and possibly Aligns
’ ta This Is attributed bv Mayor Al
' sop to tbs uttUsation of the possl-
I buttles of river navigation develop
' msnl "Hope Augusts will have
f stuns more boate some day," he said
-as he left the subject
' "The mein Iheme of my remailks
■ le 'co-operation and teamwork.' ” de
' dared the mayor from the Florida
• city, as hs drovs his main point
home. "Broad vision and energy are
l needed. We have plenty of the tieg
i attve kind of fellows. What we went
. ta fellows with mergy enough to eay,
'Come on. Augusta* Let's go!* and
then go on end go, and do some
ithing!
Compulsory registration was pass
• ed as a rule among members of every
. civic organisation In Jacksonville, SC
.cording to the mayor Any men who
'failed to regteler and vote was auto
• mat rally dropped from the rolls of
, the club, thus forcing on good cltltens
u h i gnltlon of tbs duty of every men
'to exerelee his suffrage in bringing

Issuing an earnest Invitation to Au
gustan* to visit his grest city snd
assuring them that Augusta may cell
on him for anything he can give them
and be sure of getting it, the speak
er closed, aaylng "Next to Jackson
ville. you have the greatest town on
esrth!"
During the course of hit address on
'.he public utilities of Jacksonville end
the part their operation has played In
| the great success of the "Gate City.”
| Frank Owen, commissioner of public
I utilities of Jacksonville, urged that
. the people play fair with the public
I service corporations,” and make
them play fair with you," he added.
"If the public service corporations
rsfuse to do what you want them to,
your business men should get to
gether and thrash out their problem*
and get up and do something for
themselves!" was his advice.
OWEN SEES NEED OP
TERMINAL FACILITIES.
"No city on a waterway to the sea
ran develop very far without ample
terminal facilities." said Mr, Owen, In
reference to the development of the
Savannah river. He said that the
city of Jacksonville was the most
outstanding municipality In the world
from a standpoint of municipally
owned utilities, with the eingle ex
ception of Glasgow, Scotland, which
takea it to the nth power.
In apeaklng of the close relations
that should exist between Augusta
and Jacksonville, Mr. Owen said, "If
Augusta finds a solution of certain
problems In paving or other matters,
I see no reason why Jacksonville
shouldn't hava the benefit of it, and
vice verea.”
He thanked Augusta for Its hearty
Welcome and said he hoped they
would look upon Jacksonville aa Jack
sonville looks upon Augusta.
Sheriff Dowling made a few re
marks about the river, and said he
was bom In Hampton County 8. C.,
within XOO miles of Augusta, and
that ths first electric light he ever
eaw In his life was here.
The Jacksonville mayor and his
party vyere driven about the city, the

boy—a boy of 20.
He is Bartley Grant, whose son,
Bernard, Is awaiting execution for
the slaying of a policeman during a
holdup.
“If they got off, why can't my

"The Judge says they are too
young to hang. Well, then, why
isn’t Bernard too .young?
"And I know Bernard is innocent.
He never tvas a bad boy. He never
was arrested before.

“It looks as if after all, there arc
two sets of laws —one for the rich
and one for the poor.
"But a lot of people tell me now
they’re not going to stand to see my
