CITY Of MEMPHIS /
|. HAS MILLION AND
A HALF IN BANK

A review OF the financial condition
OF the city as the month OF Septem-
Der draws TO a close, reveals the fact
that the city has a bank balance OF
more than sl,50O.0oO after paying off
short-term notes amounting to ST.
100000, and the ALLEGATION of large
sums to various city departments,
which under the law are given a
mandatory amount.
The delay in announcing the as
sessment of public utilities is with
holding from the city approximately
100000 in taxes, and Mayor Paine
has made numerous efforts to learn
the amount of the utility assessments
without success.
Sums turned over TO departments
by the city include $7S2,46S.45 to the
board OF education. 1924, 1853, to the
park commission. and $62,59S.92 to the
Cossitt library. The schools will re-
ceive further funds as soon as the
county tax rate Is fixed, and d.
vision made as to grade and high
schools, as the city gets portion OF
the grade school fund.

out that they inherited an overdraft

DENVER, Col. Sept. 30.--nissen-

ing the Democratic primaries, has
just about ruined the chances II
Gov, Cox In Colorado. Although the
Democratic nominee for governor has
Endorsed Cox, the rank and file o.
ths Nonpartisan league voters ara
free TO vote the farmer labor ticket
and many OF them will. This viii
cost Cox more votes than the Repub-
licanR.
Similarly, the regular Democrats
have been 40 antRgonized by tho
Nonpartisan league forces that many
OF them were not at all pleased when
Gov. Cox received the leagues nom
inee for governor in his private car
and hobnobbed with him while in
Colorado.
SO much moro attention, however.
has been given to the bitter fight on
state affairs that tho effort to drive
out the NonpatisRn league over

The audience that greeted the gov

enthusiastic and cordial. Some OF
those who heard him said the gov
ernor showed the effects of his fa-
tiguing journey,
/ find considerable sympathy for
Gov Cox for his gallant fight against
big odds The feeling here seems TO
be that Cox Is struggling alone and
unaIded. For instance, today the
Denver Post has a cartoon displayed
prominently in its first page with
Gov. Cox standing In an imploring
attitude before a row Of sphynxs,
including Bryan. McAdoo, Clark and
other Democratic leaders and ask
