planned the effect of the change in the registra-
ton law. Jerome johnson, delegate to the cen

ing to be held at Jones' hall on the 10th instant,

lowed as TO the right Of the delegates to control

their delegate, and contended that Justice had
not been done the district neither by him nor
other officers of the District government. In

would answer all the requirements they needed,

addresses OF the same tenor, and il was agreed
