An Opinion.

City Attorney Spence has re-
ceived the following, in answer to
question, as to whether electors
should register at the coming city
election, from Attorney General
Mcfarland:
'Nours Of the 2nd, is at hand,
and in reply thereto have to say,
that in my opinion it is not nee
essary to entitle electors to vote at
municipal elections, that they reg
lister; or, in other words, that it is
not necessary for registrars to be
appointed and registration had,
preceding municipal elections"
Attorney Spence, however, says
that he will advise the city council
to proceed with registration. on
the grounds that the general law
requires certain conditions to be
fulfilled before an election can BIZ
had, and these are impossible if
the attorney general'sru ruling holds.

Mormon Work in Chicago.

An Associated Press dispatch
brings the information that Elder
/ B. II. Roberts and his fellow-work-
ers have succeed so we'll in max
ing converts in Chicago suburban
districts that excitement is being
aroused among people opposed to
the elders. The following is the
dispatch: 48q
Mormon elders, under the leader
ship of Bishop Roberts, who have
been preaching in the suburbs of
this city since October 1st, expect
to take colony of young people,
many Of them girls, to Salt Lake
City about April list. Meetings
have been held Sunday nights of
late in Wicker park, but it seems
the general public has not been
aware to their nature. OF late,
however, reports of family troubles
anxiety about daughters supposed
to be visiting friends on Sunday
evenings, and growing unrest in
the community, have led to the
suspicion that the Mormon infu-
ence was becoming strong enough
to cut figure. Already, it is
said, 200 residents Of the north
west side have come over the Nor
mons way of thinking, and the
air in the vicinity Of Wicker park
is thick with growing excitement
over the work of proselyting.-

Mine inspector. .........3 25083
Albion normal school .1712.49
Printing amendments. 944.05
The following amounts under the
heads named were disallowed by
the committee:
Governor, $531.5O. Of this
amount $500 was a reward offered
for the capture of Charles Olsen
aud $3.50 which was expended by
the governor for bus fare between
the executive office and the peni-
tenitary.
Mining inspector, 325o83. The
committee states thas no appro-
priation for this office was made by
he last legislature and that the
office was practically discontinued
They consider that this legislature
has nc right to appropriate for any
object for which the last legislature
refused to make provision.
The Albion state normal school
deficiency of $1712.49 is not pro-
vided for in the appropriation bill,
as it is understood this and the
running expenses Of the institution
for the ensuing two years will
probably be covered by a bond
issue.
The wagon road deficiency of
$2067.90 was disallowed as the
commission was practically extinct
at the last session of the legisla-
ture and no appropriation was
made at that time.
The $3942.61 deficiency in the
adjutant generals office was dis
allowed for practically the same
reasons as the claims of the min
ing inspector and these Of the
wagon road commission.
Two bills amounting to $1045. Is
were disallowed in the land depart
ment. These were claims by w.
B. Matthews which the committee
decided should be paid by the
American Falls Canal Company,
whose interests Mr.. Matthews was
furthering at Washington.
Something over 1900 was dis
allowed among the unclassified
claims, one of them being a loan
of f444.3O made by Senator Shoup
to Commissioner j. NJ. Wells at
the time Of the Worlds Fair.
Among the penitentiary clafms
$509.50 was disallowed One item
Of 1925 was a claim Of James King
for drawing plans which the ward
EN- refused to approve. Another
item was for SS7 presented by the
Boise Hack & Transfer com pany
for services rendered the governor
in furnishing him transportation
in his visits to the penitentiary.
The committee considered this an
entirely unnecessary expense SO
long as the street cars and peniten-
tiary omnibus were at the govern
or's se7yice.-Statesman.

ond classes, an increase of one cent only
on the first class wool. All voted, too,
for eight cents on carpet wool.
You inquire how can look the wage
Garner in the face after asking for a rate
of duties that would add so much to the
cost of his clothing. My good friend,
don't you think those sympathetic tears
you are metaphorcally shedding are
Just a little on the saurian order? If you
are really tapping the briny,' why not
give your phllanthropic impulses some
tangible and practical form of express
sion? If your soul is disturbed, your
compassion moved by the cry of the la
borer for cheaper clothing, why not
abolish the duty on wooden goods, or ac-
cept the moderate duties, such as YOU so
earnestly recommend to The wool grow
ers? This would amount to something
and better prove your sincerity, for, as
Governor Dingley says, The duty on
the wool contained in suit of clothes
cuts but small figure in the cost of the
garments"
Whenever we tackle one of you gentle
men you overwhelm us with statistics
and an alarming array of figures, by
which you demonstrate that the farmer
" i'll soon be on the royal road to pros
must speedily become insolvent. Not
one of you could earn what you would
call decent living on the best farm in
the country. A good bank account, or
the ample profits of the mill, would be
necessary to help you out.
There is one stubborn fact that upsets
all your free trade in wool theories, fall
lacies and figures, and that is, with what
you call moderate duties, the foreign ar
ticle gets here, takes possession of our
market and drives US out. With ade-
quate protection, such as the American
farmer has repeatedly been promised,
this could not be true.
Just word, if you please, concerning
the political aspect of this business.
The most prominent tenet of the repub-
lican faith is, and has been. ever since
the party was founded, "protection to
American industries" and none of its
campaign platforms are more emphatic
than the last, which contains the sound
all-wOol plank that "ample protection
shall be given to American wool"
Even though you call it mot republi-
can" we still demand the fultillment of
the promise.
Judge Lawrence, whom you so unrea
sonably criticise, is the true and stead
fast friend of Americas wool industry.
and it will be well for the Republican
party if the promises it has made to
those whom he represents are fairly and
fully carried out. The greatest obstacle
to this contamination is the Wooden
Manufacturers association Crust. IS ito,
which. while it seeks the highest pro
lection for itself against foreign cOmpe-
tition forgets and ignores the rights of
the home producer, in the quest for
/ shoddy and cheap WOOL

Think of a camera so large that the
artist work, in the plate-holder while
taking out picture
1t sounds improbable.
But Just such an instrument has been
constructed and is now being used right
here in san Francisco 1t found its
necessity in the Fair will contest, and
was conceived and built by Theodore
Kytlla, the artist and expert III micro
photography and chirography.
MI. Kytka, who was employed by
McEnerney Il Goodfellow to investigate
the pencil will the day on which it was
filed, believed the document to be a
forgery. Charles Fairs attorneys. Knight
and Haggerty, decided to take every
possible means to establish Kytka's
theory. So they built this wonderful
camera.
With it an exact reproduction of any
writing can be made magnified 5000
times. This means that a letter one
twentieth of an inch in height can be
accurately pictured Is feet tall. In this
way, phOtOgraphing one minute section
after another, the pencil will could be
reproduced so that each page would be
1900 feet wide and 300 feet long.
Mr.. Kythkas studio was not large
enough for this giant camera. In con-
sequence, it has been built in two rooms.
The telescope part, which is made up
of twelve sections or bellows, each sup
piled with a little side door entrance,
is % feet long when extended to its full
capacity. This is connected by black
rubber cloth with an adjoining room
used as dark room. In this way the
dark room became the plate-holder of
the camera, and in it the expert works,

altering the focus and lights till salts

tograph is taken.

ras and lenses. These were given to
the different photographers of the city
for enlargement, but the results were
not as satisfactory as hoped for. In
each there were evidences of marked
distortion. There was lack of sharp
ness and precision in the lines and 6
sacrifice of detail in the general effect.
A little over twelve mouths age c. p
Goerz, a scientist of Germany, invented
a new lens. In this there were six
lenses ground into one. They were al
so adjusted that 10 matter how great al
object was to be magnifled, it could be-
directly reproduced without the slightes
distortion. This lens was of no value
in making ordinary pictures. But il
bringing out lines exactly and exposing
the fibre of paper it was unequalled.
This settles the hardest of the difficul
