Eighteen meetings were held In various parts of the city, Q. H. Thomas, candidate for mayor, addressing six meetings on the west side and seven on the east side. Mr. Thomas scored Simon for his late espousal of the commission form of government. Rushlight wss also de nounced. The speaker declared that tha regular nominee is In league with the liquor Interests, and calling attention to Rushlight remaining at home when the legislature was in session. Mr. Thomas declared that, he "occupied the oniy miaaie position tne one nearest to the people in the present campaign. The Democratic forces are pleased that at today's religious meetings in several churches of the city, favorable mention of Mr. Thomas' candidacy will oe made by the pastors. Other speakers at last night's meet ings were E. S. J. McAllister, Walter Campbell, Isaac Swett, Newton McCoy, Colonel lr N. Muncy, J. Hennessy Mur phy, Qulmby L. Mathews, Frank Lee, ueorge l. smith and Thomas Ruddy. asking hi friends to stand by him, and rays he would have been glad to make a psrscnal canvass had time permitted, "As it la," he said. "I hop X will be remembered with enodgh vote to win, upon my standing a a cltlsen. As I have many times stated, I favor the Immediate adoption of the commission form of government, and I have for mutated no lengthy platform, for X feel that a man must act on hi own beat Judgment In saoh case, and those wha know me will fee) that I mean what 1 aay when I tell them I will stand op jotted to graft and for the Interest of my .constltuenta, aoooraing o in oai of my ability." Mr. MoCabe I a railroad contractor, and punts out that he ha no business interest to. criss-cross hi duty tq the city. He was a candidate for tne nom ination .for state railroad commissioner two years ago. BELDING'S CIRCULAR TO VOTERS MAY HAVE ILL EFFECT, IS PREDICTED A circular aent out by Councilman Beldlng In the Sixth ward, purporting to tell what he haa done for th people of South Portland as a member of the council. Is csuslng much comment In the Fulton district, and friend of John Mnntag. the opposing candidate, pre dict that It will help to win the elec tion for the latter when the vote are counted Monday night. Fulton has been hard hit by Balding favorite improvement asphalt and many of the small property owner are discovering that th Improvement will be more than the coat of th land. When the coat of the Improvement exceeds the assessed valuation the property owners cannot take advantage of the bonding act for deferred payment, and tha result often amounts to confiscation. Montag, who Is proprietor of the Port land Stove Worka, and served on the executive board of Mayors Lane and Pennoyer, is being given strong sup port In all parts of the ward and party lines have been lost In the shuffle. Beldlng is regarded by many aa a rep resentative of the railroad Interests and paving Interests In the council, more then a representative of the people of the ward. Montag Is pledged to consult the peo ple of the ward as to the Improvements they desire, and to consult them before resolutions that are hard to beat have been out under war. Many of the property ownera have been "stuck" for lmprovementa of which they knew noth ing until it was too late to sign a remonstrance or to make any effective opposition. Representative Republicans of th ward are out for Montag, and the con test I watched with Interest all over the city. Montag's reputation for square dealing and his experience In city af fair weigh heavily In his favor and It la freely predicted that the antl-Beidlng revolt this year will end the preaent councilman' aspirations.

McCabe, Democratic nominee for the city council in the Fourth ward ugainst F. S. Wllhelm. has been pre vented from making as vigorous a cam paign as he desired because of the prcs ture of business, which has called him out of town part of the time. He is ORDERED TO PAY $25 MONTHLY TO CHILDREN Found guilty , of failing to support hi three small children, George Por ter was warned yesterday afternoon by County Judge Cleeton of the county court to contribute 125 a month or take chances of being sent to the rock pile. Porter claimed he haa been un able to find work. Mrs. Porter secured a divorce from her husband three years ago, and the custody of the three t children. The husband was ordered ' to pay $2B a month for the support of the children and kept up the payments until last November. Since that month he ha failed and refused to help keep the children. Mrs. Porter told the court she has been working night and day to support herself and children. Porter was required to give a bond of $500 to Insure the monthly payment.
