SOME of our papers are calling loudly
for a registry system for elections in
Ohio. The Baltimore american thus
speaks of the system:
"No executive or judicial officer in the
State wields such absolute power as the
register of voters. He can disfranchise
as many voters as he pleases by merely
drawing his pen through their names.
The citizen who is thus deprived of his
vote has no notice of the proceeding un-
til he presents himself at the polls and
and is told that his name does not ap-
pear on the list"
No system presents as many opportu.
ties for fraud as the registry system.

The Potency Of the Press.

It is universally conceded that the
Press does more to mould and control
public opinion than any other agency.
In the present age not only the opin-
ions, but even the beliefs of the mas
ses are, to a great extent, formed. and
are always more or less Influenced by
reading especially the newspapers of
the day. and it is therefore, hardly
possible to estimate the importance of
the press, and its power Of working
good or evil to society. Ii we take the
simple statistic that the circulation of
the New York dailies approximates a
half million, and the circulation Of
three Amerisan weeklies does not fall
short of million, and add to this the
thousands Of other dailies and weeklies
scattered all over the land, whose cir
eulatisns run all along the table of
enumeration, it becomes matter i'm
possible to cipher out the length and
breadth of the influence Of the Ameri-
can newspaper press. That there are
impure streams issuing from this foun-
tain is not to be concealed, and that the
acme of newspaper purity has not been
reached. We have but to scan the long
columns of scandalous and semi-ob-
scene reports. to say nothing Of the
light and wishy-washy matter with
which the country is flooded It is
really refreshing to one accustomed to
the sight Of so much that had better
have been suppressed in its incipiency.
to witness the effects being made by
many to work reform in this regard,
and it is q matter of the first importance
to all concerned, that the press shall
be made 50 pure in the crucible of NOR
Atty, as that it shall impart healthy
and invigorating tone to the countless
masses Of newspaper readers st.

KEEP THE "CURRENcY" IN Morton.
One Of the best resolves for the new
year is, for all who can pay, to proceed
at once and promptly settle all out
standing debts to tradesmen shopkeep-
srs, mechanics. hired people, servants,
laborers, &C., &c., &c.-especially the
small bills. Many persons to whom
debts are due have to postpone payment
Of the debts they owe until they are
paid what is due them. When this is
done. they can pay others, and then
60 and discharge still other debts, and
20 the money medium is put into active
circulation. Then new stocks can be
procured, and new work can be made
up, and employment be made more ac-
tive. The little driblets of debt, when
paid, gather into accounts which dis
charge larger and still larger debts, un-
til great volumes are paid off, and
heavy barriers to new enterprises are
removed. A single five dollar note,
paid to the person TO whom it is due,
may figure in paying off twenty debts
of the same amount in the course of a
single day at this season Of the year.
One of the troubles about the currency
is, that it is not kept "curren," and
this comes about by the thsughtless-
ness Of people who postpone until "to-
morrow" the payments they ought to
make to-day.-Phila. Ledger.

Why PorAToEs Run OUT.-Some
one asks why It Is that potatoes SO soon
run out. There are two grand rea-
sons. There are but few potatoes in a
hill that are ct for seed. Some are
overgrown. coarse, rank and will not
transmit the original quality. Others
are undergroyn and not fully developed
seed. A potato Of medium size, per-
feet in all its parts, with change of
ground, will produce its like ad infn-
itum One other reason cutting pota-
toes between stem and seed end con-
tinuslly is wrong requires the stem
and seed end to make perfect seed, if
cut, lengthwise. Single eyes will run
out any potato. There is no other seed
that will bear mutilatisn like the pota-
to; the only wonder is that it does not
run out completely.

Election Of Senator in Tennessee.

ANDREw JOHNSON SUcoEssPUL.
warmly contested struggle in the Ten
nessee Legislature for United States
Senator has resulted in the election of
Andrew johnson. The late Vice
President and sx-President seems to be
truly irrepressibls. Entering public
life life as an alderman in Tennessee
town when be was only twenty, and
mayer at twenty-five, he has since gone
up the rounds of the official ladder as
member Of the Legislature, presidential
slector. member of Congress from 1843
to 1858, Governor of Tennessee, United
States Senator from 1857 to 1868, and
finally Vice-Prssident and then acting
President Of the United States. He is
the only ex-President ever elected to
the Senate, and the only ex-rresident
now living. We now, after an inter-
val Of six years, are about to have Mr.
johnson back in ths United States
Senate, where he will be very likely to
demonstrate that ''there are blows to
give az we'll as blows to take" on q
great variety Of subjects 1t is no or
diuary triumph which Mr.. johnson has
achieved, and it is likely to be regard
ed as such by both friends and enemies.
His readiness and power in debate are
we'll known, and there will be no lack
of stimulus for their exercise. He
comes back to the body that tried to
convict him on impeachment a few
years ago, and it is within the limits Of
possibility that he may become an i'm
peacher himself before bis term is En-
ished. Mr.. johnson is a native of
N. c., and was born Decem-
Der 20, 1908. At the age of ten years
be was spprsnticed to tailor, and
served good seven years apprentice
ship-quite in contrast with the triaing
apprsnticeships in various branches Of
industry at this day. The boys and
mechanics generally may take lesson
from this old style Of apprenticeship
and its result. t.-Balt. San.
