DR.. SCHULZ IS TO WITHDRAW,
HIS CLOSE FRIENDS DECLARE,
Report That Coming Campaign is To
Be Like Germans Dash Through
France, DiscOuragas Surgeon

DR.. d. B. Schulz, the third candidate
to announce Tor Mayor, may not make
the race. 1t was learned last night
that he had discussed Withdrawing
with close friends. but he had no:
reached definite decision.
DR.. Schulz, it is said, believes the
coming campaign will be wirc-puII-
ing contest, and for that reason, ne Is
ready to step out. He discussed his
candidacy with friends Sunday and
yesterday. and it was at their request,
hat he talked of abandoning the race.
When his friends learned that can
didates on the Rage ticket were be-
ing interviewed with the hone Of per
suading them to withdraw, they con
Guided that DR.. Schulz did not have
the time to spare to act as night
Waterman over the men he mi"ht Sc
lect to go on his ticket.
1t was reported yesterday that Geo.
S. Summers, cashier of the First Ma
tional bank, would be ono Of
the candidates for Council on the
Schulz ticket, but he stated that this
rumOr was erroneous.
With The report OF DR.. Schulz's
plans to withdraw, the unofficial an
nOuncement came that DR.. K. p. Dal-
ton, member of the Board of Health,
would make the race. Friends Of Dr.
Dalton say he is drawing up 4 plat
form that will read like the report Of
sixteenzjnch krupp gun.
Present indications. based upon the
line up for Mayor, the coming cam
paign is going to be about as strenu-
Gus as the Germans march across

MOON WON'T BE FULL
THIS MONTH. SAYS VIZ
FIRST February Since 1916 That Orbit
Abstained-TO Slip in March.

St. Louis, Feb. 5-Here is another
"dry" movement. The moon will have
10 chance to be full in the month of
February this year In revolving to
the music Of the spheres the calendar
has slipped cog for the first time
since 1876 and the earths faithful
valet can't get "all lit up
An unscientific explanation is that
the moon, known for ages as the
friend of lovers, is sulI,ing because
this is not leap year. If the calendar
had been so arranged that 1915 would
be a leap year instead of 1916 the
mon would not have been forced to go
through the month without being full.
The Rev. Martin S. Brennan, St.
Louis astronomer priest, today cX-
planned that the reason for the lack of
full moon this month was that Feb
ruary was suffering from a slight dis
location. The moons period, he said,
is 29i2 days. For the last 50 years
February has managed to be in time
for the big show, despite the fact that
in three years out of four it has only
rs days.
This year one Of the moons periods
was completed on Jan. 80. The moon
hasn't been full since. Thus far it
hasn't even shown signs of slipping,
but wise observers predict that it will
be full again March 1.
February this year was so short
that its % days Tell in between the
beginning and the end of the moons
phases. # it had been leap year the
situation would have been different,
as February, having 20 days in leap
year, would have caught at least q
glimpse of the moon when it was full.
AS some compensation for its en-
forced abstinence, the moon will be
full twice in March this year, and full
in every February for the next 60
years. In 1884 there will be no full
moon in February.

Our Dave Harris Out
For City Council On
Pure Water Platform
Says He'll Impeach the Burg
Omaster and Tin Can His
Colleagues if They Don't
Take the Hot Air
Out of the
Gas.

Dave Harris, who looks upon poll
tics as one form of charity, yesterday
tossed his hat into the ring.
Accompanied by his attorney, Harry
+. Alexander, Col. Dave yesterday af-
ternoOn took his petition for Council
out for an airing and before he return
ed home, he had been naminated for
City Councilman from the Fist ward.
1t required fifty signers to the petit
ton to legally put him into the run
ming, but when he had added the last
signature, he prepared a statement,
which he asks the voters to consider
his platform. 1t says:
If elected to the City Council, and
| expect to be by the largest majority
ever given i candidate for that office,
| hereby promise that will make the
Missouri Public Utilities Company live
up to its contract with the people, or
I'll push the plant into the river.
If elected, | shall call upon the
Mayor and City Council as soon as |
am sworn in, to take some immediate
action. IF the Mayor refuses, nov
promise that / will institute impeach-
ment proceedings against him and
throw him out of office.
During my term Of office, | will
watch every city official to see that
they do not put anything over on the
people. Ii l detect a suspicious act,
III let the people know it, if have
to run through the streets or shout it
from the housetops.
The people in Cape Girardeau can
get good water instead of swill, and
real gas instead Of hot air, if they
elect an honest council. ! don't care
about the Mayor. The Council can re-
move him if he won't do what the peo-
pie want him to do.
LET me in there ore term and I'll
90 after The water works before my
torn expires and not begin it when |
am up for reelection. When | get that
place, and it's mine right now, I'll
get the water company's goat, even if
they put dynamite under me-"
Mr. Harris is opposing w d. Black
on Mayor Kage's ticket and Sam Bou-
tin Oh the Phillips ticket. Col. Dave
says every cent paid to him by thl
city will be turned over to the Provi-
dent Association as soon as he can
get his voucher cashed.
