Tho Listing of Voters.

The IxrELIIGENcER has been printing
from day to aSy the following notice:
1tspart Of the Democratic plan 20 challenge
tho vote OF every Republican VITO ha1 not Deen
a1SesSed under the new WeSt Virginia election
law Don't let them ind ron unpsepafhd.
Voters who are not+well posted in the
West Virginia election law passed by
the last Legislature may Boz misled by
the word assessed" as used in the par
agrah quoted. To be "assOssed for the
purpose provided in the election law
does not mean that in order to vote
every citizen must have his name en-
tered on the assessors books for the
purpose OF boing assessed poll tax and
to have his personal property listed for
taxation. It simply means that he must
be "listed" entirely separate from the
regular assessmGnt-lis
This separate list OF the assessor must
show the following:
The name in full Of the voter.
His age.
His occupation,
The location of his residence in the
magisterial district in which he resides.
How long he has resided in the state,
how long in the magisterial district in
which he resides.
His place OF, birth, and ii born out Of
the United States, and is naturaliSed
citizen, the place Of his naturalization.
This list Of voters is returned to the
county clerks office and is supposed to
be q roster Of the legal voters in the
county. a5t
The IN1E11raENcER believes that this
registration of voters flor that is all it
is) is unconstitutional, but advises all
Republicans to see that they are listed
in the mannerTdetailed and according
to the statute, in order that there may
be no dispute as to their right to vote.
Because you have been assessed and your
name has been placed on the personal
property book for the purpose OF taxa
ton, do not think that this is all that
is necessary. You must DO listed as
above indicated.
Ii you are not SO listed your vote will
be challenged on election day, and
should you appear, at the polls late in
the day you may not have time to show
to the commissioners that you are en-
titled to vote. Therefore, it is essential
that you see to it that your name is
listed before election day.

Thu Plate in America.

We are in receipt Of a circular from
N. L G. Taylor & Co., the tin plate
manufacturers Of Philadelphia, giving a
comparison Of values Of tin plate in
Great Britain with the prices ruling in
America, which affords an interesting
study. Summed up the statement
shows that aimee 1888 America has paid
intothe pockets OF the British manu-
facturers premiums over the intrinsic
value of the goods to an amount that
throws into the shade tho tariff upon
the article.
The circular also shows by indis.
putable figures that pinety-seven
makCrs of tin plate within a small area
OF Great Britain have controlled co.
100000 consumers in the United States
who have been compelled to pay what
ever the ninety.seven makers were
pleased to demand. Great Britain has
been making tin plate since l72O, and
thore are now ninety.seyen makers.
Tho United States has been making tin
plate for one year, and there are now
twenty-six makers.
But this is not particularly our idea
in calling attention to the Taylor cir
