THE BULLS TOSS THE BEARS
Sky Rocket Rise in Cotton Made
Thousands for Dawson People.
Price Still Above II Cents

The trend of the cotton market has
been revolutionizing in its results for
many in Dawson during the past
week. The sudden skyrocket rise of a
hundred points that came with the
publication of the ginners' report
caused a local furry and furore
that evidenced the exhilerated feelings
OF many interested parties. 1t is cur
rently rumored that the remarkable
advance put from ten to fifteen thous-
and dollars apiece into the pockets of
several spectators in Dawson, and
lifted others out of the hole upon level
ground.
While the owners of spots are nat
urally pleased over the better prices
there is very little selling. 1t is
confidently believed by the farmers
that the staple will go much higher,
and they are holding their cotton,
even though the present price is far
from beng low.
AS The News goes to press the quo
tation for good middling is III cents.
20, $50 bales have been received by the
Dawson warehouses.

buys of the largest importers, who
make him as close price as their big

small he can afford to sell at small

Dawson has never boosted of such
a store before, and it shows their APP
probation of the nerve which was dis
played in opening up such a line of
goods here. Many discouragements
we're met WITH and it is only recently
that the trade has worked up to a

SIMPLE REMEDY FOR CATARRH

just Breathe Hyomei Four Times a
Day and BE Cured.
If few years ago someone had
said you can cure catarrh by breath
ing air charged with a healing bal
sam the idea would have been ridi-
culed, and it remained for that emil
nent Investigator, r. T. Booth, to dis
cover in Hyomei this great method of
cure.
Hyomei has performed almost mir
aculous cures of catarrh, and is today
recognized by leading members of the
medical profession as the only adver-
tised remedy that can be relied upon
to do just what it claims. The com
plete outfit of Hyomei costs SlO0, and
consists of an inhaler, medicine
dropper and bottle of Hyomei.
Breathe HYomei through the inhaler
for few minutes four times day,
and it will cure the worst case of ca
tarrh. 1t soothes and heals the mu-
cous membrane of the air passages,
prevents irritation and effects COM
plete and lasting cure.
In Dawson there are scores of peo-
pie who have been cured of catarrh by
Hyomei. If it does not cure you they
will return the money you pay for
Hyomei. This is the strongest evidence
that can be offered as to the Dawson
Drug Co.'S. faith in the remedy.

Tomorrow, November Both, will be

FOR OLD PEOPLE.
Bell Bros. Have a Guaranteed
Strength Creator.

Bell Bros. Have a Guaranteed
Strength Creator.
Mr.. Bell of Bell Bros, the we'll
known druggists, says: Hundreds of
old people right here in Dawson need
just such strength-maker and body
builder as our delicious cod liver oil
preparation, Vinol, and we simply
cannot understand why they will con-
tinue to drag out half-dead and half
alive existence when we guarantee
Vinol will strengthen and invigOrate
every organ in the body, stop the nat
ural decline and make them well,
strong and active.
"This is because Vinol contains in
highly concentrated form all of the
strength creating and bodybuilding
elements of cod liver oil actually TAX
en- from fresh Gods livers, but with
out drop of the system-clogging oil
to upset the stomach and retard its
work.
"Vinol creates renewed vitality in
the most natural manner making rich,
red blood, and building up and
strengthing every organ in the body
to do it's work as nature intended.
Many old people have written that
they would not take $1,000 for the
good Vinol has done them.
"In the strongest manner we en-
dorse and guarantee Vinol to increase
the appetite, give strength and re-
newed vitality to the aged, build up
the rundown, tired and debilitated,
make the weak strong, or return to
the purchaser every dollar paid for
it," BELL BROS, Druggists.

UNCLE SAM GETTING STATISTICS.
Wants to Know How Much Business Is
Done by Industrial Establishments.

Uncle Sam is the best posted man
on all affairs, both private and pub
lie, of anybody in the whole country,
due to a way he has of prying into
other peoples business in a manner
that would mean trouble for anybody
else.
Just now through the census bureau
he is collecting statistics and infOrma-
ton concerning the operations of all
the manufacturing and industrial en-
terprises of the country-the amount
of capital employed, the value of the
products turned out, the operating
expenses and the wages paid for labor.
MIR. Allan w. Aldrich. a represent
ative of the government, was here
Friday and Saturday getting this in
formation from the manufacturing en-
terprises located in Dawson, and the
reports sent from here will be part
of very interesting volume on this
subject that will be published later.

CLICK OF CUE AGAIN MAKES worries ROLL
Tables Will Not Be Stopped Until the Mex
Meeting the City Council. What the Ordinance Says.

it's ordinance in regard to pool tables.
The ordinance provides that no pool
or billiard table shall be allowed in
any store house or place where any
kind of business is conducted or car
ried on without having first secured a
license therefor. The license is fixed
at $500, and it is further specified that
such places shall not open until after
sunrise and shall close at shutdown.
1t will be seen that the ordinance is
so framed as to apply to almost every
place in which a pool or billiard table
may be put except private residence.
The owners of the table, who got it
for their own use and amusement, do
not think they are subject to the tax,
and say they will test the matter in
the courts if the council decides to
press the collection of it.
