Applications to Become Voters Must he eg Made This Week. ts q
 Those young men or old men who are eligible to become voters before the next election should read carefully the following facts: Many do not desire to become voters because they think they will not be compelled to pay military tax unless they are voters. It may be well for them to know that the military enrollment will be made within three or four weeks. and that not one who is over IS years of age will be left of the lists. The selectmen intend to enroll all. It would be better therefore for all who are over 21 to become voters as they will be compelled to pay military tax in any event. This week is the last in which to make application and every op- portunity is given in which to do 1t. Now. relative to those who mature or become 2I after the time expires for making applica- tios. Saturday night the application time will expire. but if young man becomes 21 between that date and November 6, election day. he is eligible to be made a voter. An application must. however, be made by Saturday night and this fact can be filled in on the blank. If a man be- comes 21 on November even. he is eligi- ble to be made A voter. but likewise hi s application must be made within the time specified There are men in every ward who will lake the applications or the names may be left at the democratic head quarters. Blanks can also be found at the DEMOCRAT office and may be filled out there If necessary. There is no excuse for the young men to come out and exercise their prerogative to become electors. Re. member only this week remains in which
 to make application.

THE LICENSE VOTE.
E. A. Moree Accuses the iReeistrars and Others of DIshs honesty.


 Others of Dishonesty.
 At the meeting of the Waterbury Tem- perance Reform league yesterday afternoon E. A. Moree made some grave charges against the mcderators at the no license boxes at the recent election. Over S30 had been raised by the league and some of the churches for the purpose of furthering the interest of no license and yet the vote was one hundred less than that of last year. He said he had furnished four counters, one for each ward, but for some reason or other all but one had been placed on other tickets. Mir Moree said he believed that the reason that the no license vote was less than last year was because many votes cast never went into the ballot boxes.
 A reporter of the DEMOCRAT called the attention of Registrars Hynes and Blair to MT Moree's statement. Both gentlemen were positive in their denial of the insin- nations. Registrar Blair said that neither Mir Moree nor anybody else acting in the | interest of the no license vote had con- suited him about counters. ''If anyone had asked to be permitted to assist in mak- ing the count" said Mir Blair. .'we should have been pleased to accept his- assistance. | The trouble with us about that ticket was that 1t was difficult to get counters. was over at the third ward myself and swore in | the counters recommended to me by the moderator. Registrar Hynes said: If Mir Moree claims that he asked me to put one any of the wards, he makes a statement that is absolutely false. The man never came near me about the count"

A Union City Mans Vigorous Denial of a
 Published Statement.
 Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 The report in a Sunday paper is liable to mislead some of your numerous readers respecting the McGlynn case vs myself, which was thrown out in the district court of Waterbury last Wednesday. Now, I don't claim to have any special" friends here. neither have deputed any person to influence thIs woman from appearing in said court. The facts of this incident ap- peared in a former issue of your valuable paper and now that the matter is no longer ''sub judice" I reiterate in the most posi- tive terms that never said one ungentle- manly word to her. much less having as- saulted her. Now, I also wish to state that never needed the assistance of any person to take me home through my being presumably under the influence" The statement of other people having been seen at Tonic's premises at l2:50 has noth- ing at all to do with me. as I was home, half mile away. before II p. m. The clumsy statement presumably" given by the chief to the reporter is not believed by any man or woman in thIs borough. who knows me. What have the intelligent tax payers of this district to say of their exem- plary chief of police. Who has to pay for these blunders and these numerous ap- peals. perhaps some of your readers will explain.

 Another arctic danger has been revealed by the destruction of the Miranda, carry ing the Cook Greenland expedition. It is attributed to the liquor the crew got in the spirit room. Hitherto ice water has been the chief peril to these explorers, but they are evidently getting more risky cv- cry ycar.-DctrOit News.
