Tomorrow the people are called or

change the state constitution.
! AS there is no personal interest in
Volved there will bea very light vote.

see the necessity of voting.

But, seriously, our intelligent citi-
Gems should vote to a man. 1t would
be a source of everlasting shame and
regret if the registration amendment
was beaten.
Voters will find tickets furnished by
the state at the ballot boxes, but look
out for those tickets that they are not
scratched to suit the Mexican politics
of our county and city.
Information has Vel received that
the tick cts sent out in the ballot boxes
have been scratched to suit the ring.
The state authorities should be in
formed of this matter.
Let the people of this city go the
polls and vote as n man in favor OF
the amendments. 1t is an emergency
that demands the exercise of intelli-
gence and independent action.
X X
The voting places are the same as in
the county election. There are six
teen precincts in this city, two in each
city ward. Intelligent voters will
have no difficulty in remembering the
place they voted at the last county
election.

Sfanwood News.

STANwoop, July 4.-[Special.l About
three months ago a couple of young men,
one of whom, named John Potter, and
both supposed to be from Seattle, sailed up
the Stillaguamish river in a large sloop to
point about four miles above Stanwood
where they anchored. The young men
left their sloop and went up the river in
canoes and were not again seen for period
of six weeks. AT the expiration of that
time they returned to Stanwood with spec
linens of gold quartz, declaring that they
had made a rich find in the Cascades.
They sold their sloop here and again dis
appeared, and were not seen again until
last Saturday when they passed through
here with about one hundred and fifty
pounds of gold quartz in sacks on their
shoulders. They exhibited their speci-
mems here and they are pronounced I'M
usually fine. An old miner offered the
prospectors $500 for the contents of their
sacks.
