CERTIFICATES DENIED

 BY DALLAS REGISTRARS.
Not Known Whether They Will Take Advantage of Their Right of Ap-

Advertiser Bureau,

Advertiser Bureau,
 Selma, July 6. The petitions of twelve negroes for registration as voters were today not granted by the Board of Registrars of Dallas County. The men had shown themselves eligible on educational and property tests, but their admission into the electorate was deemed inadvfsable and their prayer were therefore re- fused.
 The negroes appeared before the Board Monday and asked to be regis tered. Their cases were taken under advisement and after deliberative ex- animation the registrars decided that the prayers of the petitions should be denied. It Is not known if the men will adopt the privilege of an appeal to the Circuit Court for a trial of their petitions by jury.
 The Board has registered twenty eight persons. The paucity of those who are willing to be registered is un- fortunate and the voting strength of the city precinct is seriously im- paired.
 The registrars will arrange to hold sessions in Selma later in the summer.

For Municipal Ownership.

Since the death of President William Henry White of the Selma Water Com pany. rumors have been many to the effect that the company would seek to sell its property in this city and now the town is agog with talk of mu- nicipal ownership. Many believe that the purchase of the water company's system or the construction of another would be both feasible and profitable, and the proposition is very popular.
 Mayor V. B. Atkins stated today that he cordially advocated the plan. He said:
 T advocate the municipalitys own ership of the water works system, and of the lighting system. too. The city. if an arrangement could be made with the Selma Water Company, could buy the company's property or construct a new water works system conveniently and profitably. I think the city could not do this for less than $100.000; but if we buy, we must buy property and property alone, we must not pay for the franchises we have granted the company.
 If bonds for $100.000 were issued at per cent, the city. owning it's wa ter system, would save s2.O0O a year on water rentals. The city now pays to the Selma Water Company more than $6,000 a year. Interest of $4,000 annually would be s2.000 cheaper than water rents at $6.000. It is, I think only a question of time before Selma will own a water system"
