REGISTRATION LIST is LONGER.
AS Names Are Being Added Every
Dav

The rapidly approaching prima y for
mayor, three alderman and city clerk
is resulting already in large registra-
ton of democratic voters, and each day
other names are adde to the already
lengthy voters list
For every one wants to vote in the
primary, whether or not there is full
field of candidates.
In order TO register, one must have
paid his city taxes for last year (not
this year, and have been bona fide
resident of Americas for SIX months
prior to Monday, Nov 7th.
The first Monday in Novemb Der is the
date for the opening of the books for
the December election.
If one voted in the regular election
last December for mayor and alder
men, he is qualified to vote in the pri-
mary on Tuesday, Nov. 9Th, or if he
did not vote then, and has since paid
his taxes for 1908
Citizens who have moved here this
year, prior to the past six months, and
those who are since of age, are emit
tied to register for the primary without
the payment of tax.
And as the election is going to be
interesting ere the ballot box closes OF
Nov. Stb, it behooves all to get in the
| game early, Other candidates NAV an
nounce later, and with full field there
will be something doing.
It is expected that the registration
will reach 800 before election day.

DEMAND WILL ABSORB COTTON
Crop 100000 Can Easily Re Con-
Sumad.

Mr.. Thomas Sinclair of New York, q
representative of the firm of Sieden-
burg & Co., cotton brokers Of that city,
was in Savannah yesterday, says the
Morning News, and visitor on the
floor of the Cotton Exchange. Mr..
Sinclair is on trip through a part of
the belt and, after spending some days
there will go westward. From what he
has seen of the Carolinas and Georgia
he is satisfied that a large crop is as
sured this year, but this, he says, does
not mean that prices are again going
to the old levels reached in former
years when large crops were made. he
believes that even with a crop of II,
500, 900 bales it will average Between
8 and 10 cents on the market. He
bases this belief on the fact that at the
opening of this season stocks were very
small at the mills and stocks of manu-
featured goods were also unusually
small; further that Manchester hal
bought very heavily, and Eastern ant
Southern mills will need very larg,
amount of cotton to carry them through
the season.
