That Which Applies to Women
Voting.
COUNTY CLERK KOHLER's WARNING

It Is q Dangerous Practice to Tampsr With
the Poll Books Other Than to See That
Your Name Is Recorded There-Not Au-
thorized to Put Any Marks In Them.
Il see by the appeal of the w. c. U.
committee with reference to women vot
ing for university trustees under the ex
listing laws" said County Clerk Kohler
last evening. that there is one clause
which admopishes women to this effect"
ard Col. kohler read from the W.CT.U-
communication as follows:
The registration books are now hang
ing at each polling or voting place in
your counties and towns. Go and place
your name thereon, and that of your
women frierd,. Remembe. to u.e you
own baptismal names, not your hus-
bands. if you are married. If the judges
have not hung up books large enough to
hold your names, ask them by committees
to put up book for your use. 1t would
be we'll if you fear your women will not
register to appoint committees and can
vsss your voting precints and present
this list, or a duplicate OF it to your
Judges to copy in the registration book
Nov. 1.
Now" said Col. Kohler. this clause
cannot be complied with. Our lady
friends. who are anxious to ex>
ercise the right of suffrage will make
serious mistake II they carry out the in
structious referred &c and attempt to
register their names in the poll books
which are hung out for reference. These
books are for the information of voters.
and no one, male or female. has right
to make a mark in them. The object of
hanging them out is that voters may con
suit them. see il their names are down.
and if not they are to appear before the
the judges of election on the next regis
tration day and see that their names are
registered.
so that before women suffragists at
tempt to follow the advice contained in
the W. G. T. U. appeal. they should be
quite sure that they are keeping within
the law"

10 the Editor ofthe alexandria Gazette:
Henry George does not advocate the tag
alton OF land 90 related to area but only as
to va'ue, on the ground that all location
values are made, not By the Individual own

the general communities, would easble
auoh communities to remove all burthens OF
taxation from labor which would encourage
the aolusl producer and discourage land
monopoly, the great cauee OF pauperism the
world over.
Mr.. George teaches the art of taxation as
science, showing plainly that texing the
fruits OF labor disooursges and robs the pro
duoer, enabling non-producers TO Iiot upon
the productions of lsbor.
