WOODWARD REPUDIATED.

Atlanta nominated Jim Woodward
for mayor, knowing in advance that he
had, at home and abroad, been disgrace
fully drunk and otherwise. Recently
he got drunk again, and was found at a
questionable house. This aroused the
righteous indignation of the best citi-
zens of Atlanta, who we're never respon-
sible for his nomination, and they held
a meeting and prevailed upon Mr.. Rob-
ert F. Maddox, a clean and progressive
citizen, to make the race in opposition
to Woodward
The bringing out of Maddox precipi-
tated hot fight, and Woodward With
drew from the race as the nominee for
Mayor, saying that he wouldn't allow
his personal ambition to divide the peo-
pie Of Atlanta.

RURAL TELEPHONES.

The telephone lines now running out
into rural communities from Marietta,
taking in many of the farm homes be-
tween here and Lost Mountain: Powder
Springs, New Hope and adjacent towns,
thus brings the rural population in
touch with the center OF telegraph
lines and commerce.. The Southern
Bell Telephone and Telegraph Company
is encouraging in every possible way
the construction of these lines. and at
the recent State fair was awarded the
the Blue Ribbon for its exhibit for the
use of the telephone on the farm and
the method of constructing lines. Once
the farmer has tried and tested the use
of the telephone at his home, the hene-
fits are so patent that he would not do
without it. It saves time and money,
and furnishes an easy and cheap means
of communication with neighbors and
the outside world that is indispensable

COBB SUPERIOR COURT.

7 Cobb Superior court convened Mon
day morning, Judge Geo. F. Gober pre-
siding, and Solicitor-G General B. F.
Simpson in the active discharge of his
duties.
The following Grand Jury was chosen
and sworn: George l. Daniel, foreman
John S Dobbins, A A Martin, NJ A
Glore, Henry T. Osborn, A A Griggs,
N w B Dodgen, W P Jiles, G L Car
ruth, E Cassidy, J H Cantrell, H A
DuPre, w B Ballenger, G L Fambrough,
Geo d Cochran, A B Gilbert, r w
Manner, Fay Morris, w H Hadaway, J
H Murray, J A Booth, H Randall, Sr.
The bailiff for Grand Jury ls w G
Brown in court room, W A Bishop and
y w Morris.
Judge Gober's charge to the Grand
Jury was one of the ablest and most
comprehensive he has ever delivered.
He gave in charge all the criminal stat.
utes. He stressed gambling, carrying
concealed pistols, and the prohibition
law. He said while he thought the pro-
hibltion law was too drastic in regard
to making of wine, yet it was the law,
and should be enforced. He said there
was great ingenuity and misapplied
energy in the efforts to violate the pro-
hibition law, yet there could be no
evasion by whipping the devil around
the stump. That while there had been
revenue lost to the State, that there
had been also compensating benefit
in the loss of crime and drunkards, and
the State could afford to lose the reve-
nue. and not be kurt.
In regard to the Federal government
encroaching upon the rights of the
States, he EMPHASIZED the fact that we
had almost an Empire instead of Re-
public; that at first, the establishment
of an interstate law was a custom house
on the border line of States, but now
had taken in nearly everything, even to
the Shipment of peaches, from one
State to another, until the Federal
courts had assumed jurisdiction over q
vast deal of State matters, adjudica-
tion of Switch was usurpation and
revolutionary.
The road question, he said, like the
poor, would always be with US. 1t was
the biggest question, in his judgment,
before the people. 1t was bigger ques-
tion than National politics and affected
the interests of the people more direct
ly, He said graded roads was the best
method, as it was no further to go
around hill than to go over it. Good
roads give cheaper transportation than
water or rail, and enhance values and
build up the country. 1t costs money,
of course, as you cannot get something
for nothing
On educstion, he was elaborate and
vigorous. and spoke of it's great impor-
lance; OF having competent teachers,
and communities working in harmony
to build up and foster and extend good
school facilities.
