- Other in Court
A practical joke landed one man in
Grady Hospital and the other in Po

a street car motorman, of No. 179
Hampton street, was drinking at a
soda fountain on Piedmont avenue
near the Transporation Bullding with
I, ', Tack, a fellow motorman, who
lives at No. 89 Bryan street,
Honea fancied it would be the quin
tessence of humor to slip a little cake
of ice down the neck of Tuck. The
{oke worked finely, so finely that a
little later Tuck thought he would try
it on Honea. Honea promptly hurled
a heavy glass at Tuck, cutting Tuck’s
face hadly and causing his removal to
the hospital for repairs.
Honea explained to Recorder
Broyles that Tuck wasg choking him
and that the glase just slipped out of
higs hand, He was bound over for triai
under bond of $5OO.

Mr. Taxpayér: Will you kindly lend me your
ears and reason just for a minute? Do you think
that Fifteen Thousand Dollars is too much to
pay the Tax Receiver of Fulton County—the
amount that the said office now pays on the Fee
System.
If you do and you are not willing to be taxed
to help pay that unreasonable fee, will you kind
ly lend me your influence for the next few days,
and on May 5 go to the polls and cast your ballot
for me for Tax Receiver of Fulton County.
My platform is the salary system, and remem
ber, lam not for it for political purposes only. I
voted for it, and I believe it is the proper basis
on which said office should be placed.
My opponents, T. M. Armistead and W. H.
Abbott, voted against the salary system, and are
still against it, and favor the Fee System.
Thanks for your vote.

ulfC.Waters Misstatements
TO THE CITIZENS OF FULTON COUNTY:
In Tuesday morning’s paper Mr. Tull C. Waters makes an effort to involve the
undersigned in a controversy with him with the view, in our opinion, to distract the
attention of the public from his own record.
Mr. Waters is running for re-election, asking an indorsement, and it seems to us
that HE SHOULD RUN ON HIS OWN RECORD, rather than that of other members
of the Board.
Mr. Waters is. peeved because some members of the Board have taken a progres
sive stand in matters vitally affecting the taxpayers, while he has opposed every
change made in the interest of the public welfare.
The $2,800 he chims to have saved the County was on material purchased by his
Committee in 1912, being Barber Asphalt, ordered, according to the records, Novem
ber 4, 1912, and received by the County, biiled as Trinidad Asphalt, December 1, 1912,
and used on Marietta street.
This same committee, composed of T. C. Waters, Chairman; Clifford L. Anderson
and Shelby Smith, gave an order on November 4, 1912, for 981 tons of Asphalt at a cost
of $21,197, after the paving season was over, and when they knew that not a pound
of it would be used, and the personnel of the Board would change in less than two
months.
This material was the same as that laid by a contractor for the city on North
Boulevard, and which was condemned by the CITY and torn out. It was purchased
without specifications or analysis, to be used on Georgia avenue, but later, when found
to be unfit for use as a mixed process, it became necessary for the County to buy other
material in its stead. As a matter of fact, the County still has a large part of it on
hand to this day, although Mr. Waters has paid for it since he has become chairman of
the Board.
The committee of 1913, which Mr. Waters criticises, accomplished the largest
year’s work in the history of the County, including Georgia avenue, Jonesboro road,
Marietta street, Peachtree road, Moreland avenue, Jefferson street, Chestnut street,
Campbellton road, Butler and McDaniel street trunk sewers and a number of other
jobs. A complete list of all the 1913 work was published in full in all the daily papers,
and can be obtained now in pamphlet form by any citizen who desires same at the
office of the Commissioners. '
The statement by Mr. Waters that we have transacted the County business in
private caucus is absolutely untrue.
Mr. Waters admitted in his speech at College Park that ‘“he had been a failure.”
We do not believe the public will allow him to lay his failure at our door. Stand up to
the rack, Mr. Waters, “fodder or no fodder.” When the proper time comes we will
give a proper account of our official acts.
In the meantime don’t try to becloud the real issue. You ask for an indorsement.
The public is familiar with your recent attitude. When the January Grand Jury, com
posed of 23 leading citizens, the State Prison Commission and a majority of our Board
were trying to correct a rotten condition of affairs we were confronted by the strenu
ous opposition of Commissioner Anderson, and YOU supported him to the best of your
ability, as you generally do. This is one instance of your efforts to “Block hurtful
measures.”’
The people won, and we are more than willing for the people to say who has been
looking after their interests. :
Very respectfully,
S. B. TURMAN,
