These times it is almost impossible
for an editor to keep his paper run
Mug How much worse, then, is il
with a paper That has slow paying
patrons? We are in that latter class,
and we now appeal to everyone who
owes this Office a bill to pay it in
whole or in part; if you cannot pay
one dollar pay fifty cents, If1all our
friends WHO are in arrears would only
pay portion of their bill due this
Office, we would have enough to pay
what we owe and have something
left. We have not time or money to
run round over the county for what
islueus forhord labor, and have to
rely upon thehonesty and faithful
ness Oh our patrons lor %he necessary
rcvcndc to run the Register, We hope
tins notice wlIl cause All VINO Kno"
themselves indebted to the Register,
to pay us that we may be enabled to
steer through these hard times.
Those who do not respond need eN-
poet no further iavors from us We
have grown tired of running the Reg
is'erforgiory.

mon votes were cast, although not as
many as on former occasions. 1t Is gen.
orally believed among the Liberals that
If the entire force OF their party had been
brought out they would have carried the
election as to county officers. Compar'
atively the Liberals made great gains,
not because their votes increased, but
for the reason that Brigham Young and
the priesthood did not think it wise to
trifle with the Gentle Grand Jury and
the United States Judge.
They usually send to the polls thou
sands of aliens to vote for the priest
hood, the Prophets carriages all being

mon took squaw to the polls in one OF
