Senator—A Lively Contest
Started.

announced today that the Executive
Committee of Cobb county had de
clared that Mayor E. P. Dobbs had
defeated Attorney J. E. Mosely for the

enough votes were changed to change
the result of the nomination. Mr.

be ready ;for the public about Novem
ber 1, this year, vflll be near tfie gov
ernor’s mansion. No name has as yo^
been selected for the new house, bUi.
it is altogether likely that It will bo
called the Shubert, Belasco or Lyric.

with the company which will lease thb
building for a term of years. ::
Among the attractions which wllitfl

oMsely also claims that the primary
should have been called and arranged
for by the Executive Committee of the
Thirty-fifth Senatorial district, and not
by the Executive Committee of Cobh
County. It Is further claimed by
Mosely that the election was held In
cellar of the court house, which Is
not the accustomed place, and for the-
last two reasons the nomination was
null and void.
