This Is the last chance that will be
given the voters of st. Paul to get their
names on the registry lists, and no one
who desires to vote at the election a
week later should fail to drop around to
his polling place and see that his name
is properly on the polling books.
but L was registered last spring, and
have not moved SINCE" is all argument
that will be advanced by a great many
voters. But it is unsafe to rely on this.
Many mistakes have been made in
copying the old poll lists, and often
times name is omitted.
No one can afford to take any chances
on losing his vote this fall.
1t will take but a few minutes to walk
around to Your polling place and see
that your name is on the books. The
judges of election will sit as boards of
registry in every precinct in the city
from II O'Clock this noon until 9 this
evening, thus making it possible for
every voter to call either at noon or on
his way home in the evening. There
will be positively no excuse for the voter
who falls to register to-day.
Have you changed your residence
since last spring?
If you have, then word on the sub
Ject of removal certificates may not be
out of place. In constituting that sec
ton of the law relating to removal GER
titicateS, Attorney General CIapp and
City Attorney Holman are of the opin-
ION that. ii a man has removed from q
district since last springs election. and
his name has not been entered OH the
new register this fall, he is not required
to produce certificate of removal. No
matter whether he voted or not last
spring, if his name does not appear on
the new poll list in his old district, he
is entitled to be registered in the dis
trict where he now resides.
Remember. if you are not registered
you cannot vote.
Remember, you can register to-
day between the hours of II IN. and
9p. In.
Remember, your name may have been
omitted in copying the poll lists of last
spring, or it may have been uninten-
tionaIly changed in copying. At any
rate no voter should fail to satisfy HIM
self that his name is OH the registry
lists.
Register to-day.

Acker, of this city, was chairman of
the Republican county committee. Last
week Mr.. Lohn, who has always been
prominent Republican, paid visit to
old friends in this city, and, among
others. called on his former polit-
ical friend, n. E. Acker. The cou-
verSatlon naturally drifted into politics
and Mr. Lohn gave MIR. Acker some in

methods used by his party over in Min

says. when Gov. Merriam was an
nounced to speak at CrookSOn some
time ago the party leaders were anxious
to have the different villages i'm the vi

members of the e. o. p. refused to drive
overland some ten or twenty miles to
make up large audience for the Doodle

for the grand rally the railway officials
at CrookstOn received orders from head
quarters to send special trains
in all directions from Crookston

to attend the governors rally. free of
charge. The special arrived at Fosston,
and quite number of Fosston citizens
availed themselves of Gov. Merriam's
liberaiity." but" says Mr.. Acker,

would raise h-ll of a stink about it,
''Well,'' says Mr.. Acker, II must let the
GLOBE know this" Mr. Lohn was not

ing Democrat for the past four years.
Hence he unbosomed himself as he
did"
