Voting in Wyoming.

A rather startling discovery has
just been made in the new election
Law OF Wyoming. It is that there is
absolutely no provision by which a
citizen who has failed to register can
vote. No matter what the circum-
stances, the person who has failed to
have his name on the registration
lists cannot cast his ballot. So great
was the excitement over it that the
official copy of the law was looked up
and ths fact verified. The practical
effectiWill be to materially reduce the
number OF votes cast in the. coming
election. -[Ogden Union.
That is precisely the state of affairs
IN Nevada, and has been ever since
the State was admitted irto the Union:
and yet 1T causes no excite..,ant, for
we consider it a good law, inas,nuch
as q man who has not sufficient inter
est in political matters to register his
name as a voter can very well be
spared. No man In Nevada can cast
q vote in any case unless his name
appears on the Great Register.

Barnacles On Ships,

1t appears that the growth of weeds

Duty of Democrats.

The ticket nominated by the Re.
publicans at Virginia City last Friday,
Friday is an ominous day., is not
considered inyincible by any means,
and it behooves the Democratic Con-
yention, which conyenes at Reno next
Thursday, to prt up n ticket that will
command the respect and esteem of
the voters Of both parties. As q
matter Of fact we consider the Repub-
lienn ticket a weak one, for while
