The fight has narrowed down to a sec
tional basis. The mayor, who is for the
south side, is backed directly by people
who have land to sell, while the same
charge is made against the other element
Mayor Goodwin vetoed the Piedmont
land purchase, largely because it involved
an expenditure of $165, 600 but to-day he
created something of a sensation by offer
ing a proposition for the city to give
S225 600 by issuing bonds $50 600 of this
TO go into the pockets of the Pied
mont people for a part of their land and the
balance TO be used in erecting exposition
buildings on his pet site-the old water
works reservation, which is on the south
side. The proposition produced the i'm
preston that the mayors real fight is to
get the exposition on the south side, and
that his o1fer to buy part of the Pied
mont grounds for S65, 900 is in the nature
of zip to carry things his way The
mayor and his committee showed bad
blood, and some of the directors talked
pretty plainly about his obstinacy When
the mayor left TIE chair to answer the
reflection upon his motives he was angry
and delivered himself accordingly In
order to prevent the conference ending in
an Irreparable split under the impetus Of
the mayors warm speech the m citing was
adjourned until Thursday, when the fight
