The range of prices yesterday was about the same as on Saturday 9 3-8 to 9 9-16 cents. There was a drop of several points oh" the New York market yesterday morning when a number of the big dealers who had been bearing the prices during the past week came on the market and began buying with a free hand. However, the market soon rallied and climbed up again, regaining the ten points lost. One of the best local judges of the market said last night that vhe does not look for any further advances in the cotton market at least for some time to come. He says the ginners' reports are having a.

bearish effect on the market and that the general trend Is toward lower prices, working down to 9 cents or lower. He sees no hope for ten cent cotton any more this season. The total receipts to date this season have been 8,818 bales, against 7,602 to this date last year. The receipts yesterday were 151 bales as compared with 120 bales on this date last year. several years show, used a great deal of city money in employing help, it amounting some years to about $150.

Other sextons in the past have also called upon the city for much extra help. It is, therefore refreshing to note that the city has finally secured a competent man who will and does personally attend to the duties of his position. Our Schools The efficiency of our public graded schools is a matter of great satisfaction. In the matters of funds, the school fund will be very materially increased during the ensuing year, and the outlook is very bright from an educational standpoint. Rex Hospital It is with pleasure that I note the excellent report of the trustees of the condition and conduct of our city hos- vantages.

"My only regret," said Mr. Bruner, 'is that the state was not able to show her resource as they deserved to be shown." And ther? is not a man in North Carolina who knows better by experience; and. actual observation what the state has in It than does Mr. Bruner. He says that the principal kicking against the representation North Carolina had was from North Carolinians who have a genuine and sincere state pricte.

He also remarked: "North Carolina has a splendid exhibit and you hayanr't worried us to death to write it up, either." As heretofore, noted In The Post the North Carolina exhibits were awarded 75 premiums and medals, a gratifying-ly large number, all things considered. The work of packing up the exhibits will begin December 2 and will be completed just as early as possible and all will probably be back in Raleigh by January 1. The exhibits will probably result in the addition of about worth of new specimens to the state museum.

Along them will come the handsome new cases that were made especially for the exposition and at the same time with an eye especially to their subsequent use in the museum. RABBIT HUNT BY STATE OFFICIALS Will Spend the Day in tht Vicinity of Method The state officers, under the guidance of Col. F. A. Olds, will go out today on their fourth annual rabbit hunt.

Ample conveyances, including an automobile, have been engaged and the party will hunt in the vicity of Method, the rabbits and birds in a number of big fields thereabouts having been saved especially for this annual hunt. The party will have two packs of hounds, those of Mr. William Bobbins and Mr. Chas. Crawford, all of them fine beagles.

Among those who will be in the party will be Governor Aycock, Secretary of State J. Bryan Grimes, State Auditor B. F. Dixon and Commissioner of Agriculture S. L.

Patterson. The impression seems to prevail that Mr. Patterson will prove the best rabbit hunter in the party, although each of the other state officers have their supporters and rivalry is rife among the distinguished sportsmen. and Price.

It is earnestly to be hoped that in the near future a way will be opened to complete the splendid system of permanent street improvement inaugurated a number of years ago and prosecuted so successfully through the bond issue voted' by.

our people for this specific purpose. A suggestion has been made by some of our citizens, who are anxious to sec this work completed, tnat part or most of the revenue derived by the city through the operation of the municipal liquor dispensary, established January 1, 1904. and which will amount the physicians of Raleigh, without whose aid and active personal and professional interest it Could not be operated in its existing admirable manner without the expenditure of a great deal more money than is at present used in its maintenance, more than it would otherwise be able to command or secure under present conditions. During the last fiscal year 345 patients were admitted to Rex Hospital. Of this number, 216 were white patients 116 males, and 100 females and 143 were negroes 69 males, and 76 females according to the report of the superintendent, and there were 16 remaining in the hospital at the beginning of the fiscal year making altogether 361 treated.

The operating expenses for the year amounted to $6,404.61," and more than half of that amount ($3,577.10) was received from the pay patients, and was received on account of special nursing. Adding to these sums the amount appropriated by the city, the total expense account is less than $750 in excess of the total amount showing that the balance has been very easily met by the board of trustees from the interest account of the John Rex fund. All of which is exceedingly gratifying. The reports of other departments, including the exhaustive report of the sanitary department, and that of the city physician and board of furnish interesting information, which it is not necessary to review in this report. Municipal Dispensary The change which the voters ordered at the local option election held in October, 1903, substituting a municipal liquor dispensary for the open "bar-room system, had been in operation only two months when the last fiscal year closed.

But it can be stated, without doubt, that the change has proved to be a wise and salutary one, both from, a moral and financial standpoint. There has been less drunkenness, as the police records show, and as I am prepared to state from personal observation and official experience very much less forty per cent more or less, and the municipal treasury will receive about three times as much revenue as formerly. And this, too, despite the fact that one-half the net receipts of the dispensary must, under the law, go to the county school fund. The conclusion, therefore, must be that the dispensary method of dealing with the liquor question is proving a very decided success to the city of Raleigh, and this statement will be endorsed by probably nine-tenths of the intelligent citizens of Raleigh. A Word Personal And now I have written my last report and review, except one, as Mayor of the city of Raleigh as I am now serving the last year of my last term; for I shall not again become a candidate for another election to the office.

For the last six years I have conscientiously endeavored to properly perform the duties of my office. How well I have succeeded in that endeavor it is left for others to say. But I can not willingly close this review without thanking, in this public and official manner, the good people of our city for that manifestation of confidence which brought about my elec- The Pool Was Dry Three candidates awaited baptism For Carpets there Dobbin FerraU's I'aver It has been definitely decided to carpet the hall of representatives in the state capitoj with heavy lenolium instead cf- regular carpeting and to put strips of Brussels down the aisles. The lenolium is adopted for sanitary reasons and will doubtless meet with the hearty approval of every representative. The carpeting will be done within the next week or two and the hall will be in excellent trim for the session that convenes early in the year.

There will be nothing left for the senate to do but provide a fund for the renovation of their wing of the capitol during the coming session. The appropriation for the improvements made in representatives hall was made during the last legislature. M.
