Register, Register.

Every voter in the townships must
register or he cannot vote for county
or State officers.
At the last session of the legisla-
ture of this State, law was passed
requiring all voters to again register.
1t is therefore the duty of all Demo-
Gratis in the townships to sec that their
names are placed on the new register
book. A neglect to do so will dis
qualify you from voting, and you will
therefore have no voice in determin-
ing what persons shall administer the
affairs of the county and State. This
year Democracy has to wipe out the
defeat received from the Republicans
two years ago, and it can be done if
every Democrat will see that his name
is registered, and make it point to
be at the polls next November and
vote. The law on the subject of reg
istration is as follows:
Tro0idod, That at the session of the sew
eral Boards of Registration next preceding
the general election to be held in this State
i'm the year one thousand eight hundred and
cighty-two, and ut said session next proceed
ing the general election every ten years
thereafter, there shall be had and made an
ent;reIv now registration of qualified cleo
tors of each organized township and city in
this State, excepting in the county of Wayne
and except in those cities where provision
is made by existing law for new registra-
ton oftener than every ten years, the same
to be made in the manner hereinbcfore spec
flied for registration Of qualified electors in
Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1882-10-04

townships after the year eighteen hundred
and iifty-nine. After the making of each
of the said new registrations no other shall
be used in any manner at any election or
township meeting, but the same shall be re-
viewed and corrected from time 10 time as
hereinbefore provided. Upon the making
of each new registration hereunder the for
mer registers shall be securely sealed up
and filed with the Township Clerk, respect
lively, and shall not again he opened except
upon the order of n court of competent jur-
isdiction, the Legislature, or duly author
lied committee of one or both of the houses
thereof, Notice shall be given by the sew
eral Township Clerks of the time and place
of each of said new registrations, by post
ing written or printed notices thereof in six
of the most public places in each township
at least twenty days before the session of
the board at which the same is TO occur.
'In regard to registration" says an
exchange, Attorney-General Van
Ripper has given it as his opinion as to
the proper time to register that cleo
tors need not wait for the meetings of
the registration boards, but may call
in person upon the township clerk,
leave their names with him and thus
secure their registration. He is of
the opinion that the registration of
names in this manner, and as voters
have been registered since 1859, will
be valid, and in accordance with the
existing registration laws, as amended
in 1881"

RstelElsaHeHsIs2.

This very common and sometimes quite
obstinate disease manifcsts itself mostly in
two forms-infammatory and chronic.
The former is usually brought on by ex-
posture to cold, rough or damp weather
also from sitting or standing in cold,
damp places. 1t may also be inherited.
The larger joints of the cxtremities arc
usually the seat of the disease. 1t is
rarely confined to one, and sometimes
nearly all, either simultaneously or in
turn, are effected so that often the pa
tient can scarcely move hand or foot.
There are number of remedies that have
been suggested for the relief and cure of
this most painful disease, but the safest
and surest remedy in the world is Dunk's
Arnica. Sold by all drug
gists. Fifty cents per bottle.
