The total registration for this election
is 3S.54s. Last year it was 81, ,206, or 7,340
less. The increase is accounted for in
several ways. For instance. workers of
both parties left no stone unturned to
get voters out. Many names were enter
ed on the lists by means of afIidavits.
Still another reason is that voters knew
where they had to go to register the
City Clerk having taken the precaution
to have the several places of registration
published in the newspapers. Last fall,
when "Bumptious'' City Clerk E. w
Woolley was in Office, he disfranehised
in the neighborhood of 5000 voters by
his refusal to publish the location of the
places of registration. Woolley was at
that time Chairman of the Republican
County Committee. and it was freely
charged that his scheme was one to shut
out Democrats. Another cause assigned
for the increase is that unusual interest
is being taken in the coming election
by the voters of the several parties. The
registry last fall. like this one, was per-
sonal. OF the 31,206 registered last fall
2SSz2 voted, leaving only 1854 who did
not cast ballots. The difference between
the vote cast last year and the registry
of this year is 10.204.
Politicians of both parties take the in
crease as a favorable sign. It is thought
by many OF the politicians that nearly
all of the 3S546 men registered will vote.
Beyond all question the largest increases
are apparent in wards which for the last
two elections have gone Democratic.
Chief of Police Murphy will verify the
lists as he did last year. Ten policemen,
under the supervision of Inspector Lange,
are TO do the work In addition to the
police verification, the Republican and
Democratic County Committees will go
over the names. II was reported this
morning thar the Palmer and Buckner
Committee will pursue like course The
sub5oined table shows yesterdays regis
tration by precincts as compared with the
registration of the last day last fall
