the Democrats than for many years, and that in his opinion the Democratic ticket would this year be successful.
 He predicts that Candier will deefat hughes for Governor of New York State. The Democrats, he says. are full of ginger, confidence and enthusi- asm, and the opposition party is split up and at loggerheads with one an- other. The Democratic leaders are working together and also hard for the party. The Democrats. in a word. says he. have the Republicans on the run. The Republican leaders are showing fight in the East and are be- ginning to make strong efforts to bring out their best assets.
 He says that the people have come to the conclusion that the Democrats do not h~,d the monopoly on the pan- les but that other parties can also be responsible for them. The business world can no longer be frightened with the Bryan bugaboo, says he. and are not scared at he mention of the Commoner's name.
 The people have become convinced" |" said MT. Gray. "that Mir. Bryan is d sane man"
 Upon being informed that he had been selected while from the city as president of the local Bryan-Kern Club. MT. Gray said he would do everything in his power for the party and would be found ready and willing to work hard for the cause until the election Tn November.
 The rally of the local Bryan-Kern Club tonight was most encouraging one.

THE CITY's PAVING
COUNCIL HAS SEVERAL JoBs ON
 HAND.
The Work fs to Be Done on Clayton and Goidthwaite streets--sev- erai Companies Have Sub
 mitted Bids

While the subject of paving Is still an unsettled matter. the majority of the City Council favors the bid and work of the Memphis Asphalt and Paw ing Company, and but for the letter of the Mayor Monday night asking the Council to take the matter again un- der advisement. the subject would have been settled at the Council meeting Monday night.
 The Memphis people have created a strong impression with their work on Dexter Avenue which was put down fourteen years ago. and with this sam pie of work before them the Council would again contract with them.
 The Maovr Is not opposed to asphalt paving, except for one matter. the grade of Clayton Street. which he thinks too steep for an asphalt paw ing to insure sufficient safe footing for the fire horses of the Five Points sta- tfon. This. he stated In his letter. was his only objection.
 The paving in the city for which the city has asked bids is as follows:: 500 headers HOO square yards of brick paving. 3.s0o square yards of asphalt. $500 square yards of bitulithic. 150 feet of i5-inch pipe 400 24x24 concrete slabs. and 5000 yards brick pavement. ! On this work the Southern Paving Company bid s11,70o.50: the Southern Bituiithic Company, s12,3s3.50: the Graves Matthews Paving Company $1i.- 045, and the Memphis Asphalt and Paw ing Company, s1i,S37.50.

BIDS ARE OPENED
CONTRACT FOR BUILDING SELMA
 SEWER NOT AWARDED.
Dr. Lockhart Announces as Candidate for Commissioner of Dallas County News of the Central
 City.

Selma, Sept. 22.---(Special )--The bids which had been received by City En- gfneer Julien Smith for the digging of the trunk sewer across the northern part of the city were opened at his office at noon today.
 Two weeks ago bids for this sewer were opened but all of them were re- jected as the committee which has the matter in charge and which is com posed of Mayor Atkins, City Engineer Smith and Councilman Jones. consid- cred all of them excessive and believed that the work could be done for less than any of the bids.
 Eight bids were opened at the once of Mir. Smith when the committee met at noon today. The bids ranged from s13.s8s to $7,455. and it Is very likely that the contract will be let to the lowest bidder.
 The committee did not award the contract today and will probably wait until the meeting of the City Council which will be held Monday night and to which 1t will recommend the award ing of the contract for the construc- tion of the sewer.
 The lowest bid made was that by George Vice of Demopolis. who will probably be awarded the sewer con- tract.
 The proposed sewer is to be placed across the northern part of the city from about Franklin Street to Valley Creek and when finished will be nearly two miles in length. The work upon the construction of the sewer will start a few days after the contract has been let.
