McNultx for Next Mayor.

Editor of The News: rise to
suggest the name of Frank McNulty
for mayor in 1910. He goes at bus
mess in a business like way, does
business in a business like manner,
gets down to business as it ought
to be done, and has the backbone to
talk business which protects the poor
as well as those who are well-to-do.
He is the mouthpiece of no one or
faction, but treats all alike, rich or
poor. He is outspoken and honest
in what he thinks is right regardless
of criticism from outsiders. K.

DAWSON BOYS Seem Not to Have Been
in 1t Little Bit.
The Oglethorpe Citizen gives this
account of ball game in that town
in which a team from Dawson did
not WIN the pennant:
Dawson came up Tuesday to have
a look at the OglethOrpe champions,
and, if possible, take their measure
on the home grounds. But Dawson
was soon on the run.
"a good sized crowd saw the home
team fairly daze the Dawsonites in
the first two innings by a series of
swift plays, from which it took them
about five innings to recover. In
fact, they never walked up until the
game was nearly over.
Martin, pitching for Oglethorpe,
was in fine form, winning his second
shut-out game. His work all the
way through the game was gilt-edg-
ed. AS an amateur pitcher he is
hard to beat
Cooke and Stewart also played
sensationally, and EasterIin was all
to the good as usual. The Dawson
players were all SLOW their pitcher
never warming up until the game
was nearly over. S. Melton was a
daring base stealer, and Rawls at
second made a sensational one-hand
catch of Nelson's hot line drive
The home team was never in
danger, the fielders having little to
| do"

cotton circles Monday.

during the day, and there was much
selling for October delivery at 12
cents.
well-known warehouseman, who
is in touch with the situation, in
forms The News that 1900 bales
were sold by the farmers at this price
for fall delivery.
Tuesday morning the market came
IN fifteen points up, but by noon it
had lost twenty-one points.
Twelve cents means good times
and prosperity next fall but there
are those here as in the cotton CEN
tiers who freely predict that prices
VIII go still higher-to fifteen cents
in the fall-due to the poor crop
prospect in Texas and the southwest.
For while the prospect in Terrell
and all OF southwest Georgia points
to a magnificent crop this year con-
ditions are vastly different in Texas.
Monday kilograms were received
in Dawson from that state saying
that the crop had suffered greatly
the past few days from extreme heat.
The temperature was as high as
107, and cotton was deterioating
rapidly
The crop is also poor in the states
OF Mississippi, Louisiana and Alaba-
ma, and the Indian Territory.

LIN THE THEATRES
POLI'S

The last performances of the best show PoH has ever shown us will take place to-day and tomorrow, and great crowds are going to see them They are going to see them because the word has zone out that a good show is in operation down at the popular home of amusement and ey- eryone wants to see it.
 The 4 Huntings are giving us the real goods in their ..Fool House" act. All sorts of funny complications are occurring every moment they are on the stage, and there is plenty doing all of the time.
 The man who does the best stunt on the bill, and perhaps one of the best stunts to be seen on the vaude- Ville stage, is De Coe, featured on the hand bills and programs as 'tthe man with the tables and chairs When it comes to balancing in perilous posi- tions on two rear legs of a chair, De Coe delivers the goods. He is by far the best equilfbrist of his kind ever seen in this city, and when he placed three tables, one above the other, then four chairs and balanced himself on the back legs of one of them, it caused a gasp to go through the au- dience. De COe is as much the whole show as any, and if the Majestic had nothing else<on but his stunt, it would be well worth the price of admission. But they have more, and nearly all as good as De Coe.-Ft. Worth Daily Star. De Coe will be seen at Polls soon.

VOTE ON LICENSE
 IS RULED OUT
CORPORATION COUNSEL ROGERS HOLDS 10 PER CENT. LAW IS NOT EFFECTIVE IN NEW
 HAVEN
AN OBSTACLE IN OLD LAW

New Haven, Sept. 24.-As the result of the definite opinion handed to Town Clerk Whitaker by Corporation Coun- sel Rogers there will be no vote at the coming election on the question of whether or not there shall be license in the city of New Haven. The de- cision, given in response to the re- quest of the town clerk for an epin- ion as to whether the new law which
 was passed by the last legislature or that in effect hitherto governs the case, holds that the town clerk and the selectmen have no right to issue a call at this election for g. vote on license and in accordance with the opinion which the town clerk will fol- low as his guide in the matter and be no vote on the license question this year.
 The opinion was requested as the result of the raising of the question whether the new law requiring 10 per cent. of the registered voters of the city on the petition for the considera- tion of the license question instead of just 25 voters as had been required before was effective. The legislature passed the new law to go into effect CT it governed the election which falls three days later or whether the old law governed. The anti-license peo- pie have filed petition to. have the question taken up under the provis- ions of the old law with twenty-five signers to the petition. Attorney General Holcomb decided with the an- ti-license people that the old law is in force for this election and the corpo- ration counsel here has also decided that this old law is in effect and that the one passed this year does not cov- CT the present election at all. This would seemingly favor the contention of the anti-license supporters but on examination of the older law MT. Rog- CTS has discovered what he holds to be insurmountable legal obstacles which under that law makes it inn possible to vote on this matter this year.
 After deciding that the older law is the one which governs the present case Corporation Counsel Rogers has found that it provides expressly for petitions for a vote at annual town and as there is no such thing as an annual town meeting in New Haven the law cannot apply at all. In accordance with this decision any vote on the license question since the abol- ishing of the town meeting was not in accordance with this law.
