LESSER CHANCE OF FRAUD.
JUDGE SLOWER POINTS OUT THE IN
TENT OF THE LAW.
Signatures of Actual Voters Must Be
Secured After Each Presidential
Election by the Board of
Election Commissioners,

Judge Slower yesterday denied the in
Junction asked by a. n. Church TO restrain
the board of election commissioners from
compelling each qualified voter to attach
his signature 10 the registry books in the
proposed redistricting of the city into cleo
tion precincts. The suit was a friendly
one and grew out of q doubt in the minds
Of the commissioners concerning the read
ing Of the law. At the last general election
there were eighty-six election precincts.
but in the redistricting there will be 1I2.
a great deal of time and money will be
spent in securing the signature OF each
actual voter.
The act creating the board of election
commissioners provides that the commits
sioners shall, within ninety days after
each presidential election, rearrange the
election precincts of the city on the basis
of the vote cast at such election, making
such precincts to contain as near as prac-
ucable 800 actual voters. The court held
that the central idea of the act. when read
and considered as q system of voting, is to
so limit the number of voters in each pre-
cinct that they may know each other on
election day and thus minimize the op-
portunlties for fraudulent voting. The sub
division Of section q. requiring the voters
names to be written on the registry, IS
only one means of identifying the voter
and In constituting the whole law together
~ II @ must yleid TO the paramount Importance
OF section ), requiring the precincts to con-
tam as near as may be 300 voters. BY
thls construction Of the law, both sections
I" ana are given the effect intended by
the Legislators and made TO harmonic
with the other provisions of the act. The
old registry can be retained by the COM
mlssioners as a book of reference in cases
OF controversy with the voters, and thus
serve the purpose of the law in having

sunshiny weather will be guaranteed for

there might not be quorum of fair voters
at the polls. This was the case yesterday
at the regular meeting of the Equal Suf-

Coates House The meeting was called for

IMPORTANT TO SUFFERERS.
HOW YOU MAY OBTAIN A LASTING
CURE FOR PILES.
No Surgical Operation, No Pain, Tri-
fling Expense-A Simple, Harm
less Remedy, but 1t Does
the Work.

There are some people who have piles as
frequently and regularly as Other people
| have colds.
Any little bowel trouble will bring them
on, any extra exertion, as in lifting, will
produce them, and in fact will often ap-
pear without any apparent provocation.
Piles, however, are much more serious than
a cold, as the tendency is always to grow
worse until the trouble becomes deep seat
ed and chronic, or develops into some fatal
rectal disease.
While there are many pile remedies
| which give relief, yet there is but one
which not only gives instant relief. but at
the same time makes a permanent cure
and that is the we'll known Pyramid Pile
Cure.
This remedy is composed of simple, harm
less, vegetable ingredients, but combined
so effectively and act SO promptly and thor
oughly that it cures every form of piles,
whether itching, blind, bleeding or pro-
truding.
In long standing cases the Pyramid Pile
Cure has proven to be the only certain
cure except a surgical operation, and its
advantages over an operation are many, as
it is painless, causes no delay or interfer-
ence with daily occupation ard last, but
not least, 1t is cheaper than any surgical
operation could possibly be, costing but
dollar package at any drug store.
The cases that the Pyramid Pile Cure
will not reach are so few that physicians
are doing away with operations for piles
and depending on this cheap hut effective
remedy to accomplish a complete cure, and
1t never disappointS except in cases beyond
the reach of medical skill.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is prepared by
the Pyramid Drug Co.. of Albion. Mich.
and for sale by druggists everywhere at 80
cents per package. Each package contains
a treatise on cause and cure Of piles, to-
gether with testimonials from every section
of this country.

TURNED A NEAT TRICK.
May Yet BE President or Gem
eraI Manager of n Road,

Hclmes street car No. S was going south
on Grand avenue yesterday noon, when an
incident occurred which was intensely
amusing TO all but one of the passengers.
The car was in charge of an old German
conductor, whose face, it is said by his
Yellow employees, never changes its ex-
preston. Despite this characteristic he is
possessed Of a dry humor which, together
with his stolid expression, is often ex-
asTerating to his victim.
The car was well filed with passengers
and had just turned into Grand avenue
from Thirteenth street, when the con-
dECtor emitted low "Umph" took big
broom from its place on the rear plat
form and entered the car. He stopped in
front of man attired in the latest
fashion dictated by the prince. The con-
first no one paid any attention to him, but
the fact that he devoted his whole atten-
tion TO one spot on the floor soon caused
every one to look inquiringly at him The
car passed Fourteenth street and still the
conductor labored vigorously over the
spot.
IN cry one in the car had by this time

DEFENDS STATE NORMALS.
SOME INTERESTING EDUCATIONAL
CORRESPONDENCE.
Was Called Forth by the Anti-Normal
Resolution of Representative
AydeIott-Necessary Part
of the School System.

Somewhere in the Businesses of a remote
interior town of this great state there
dwells a gentleman who thinks that state
normals are not worth what they cost.
The resolution of Representative Aydelott
providing for the cessation of state ap-
propriations for these institutions, for con-
veying them to the counties in which they
have been established and for depriving
them of the power to grant state certifi-
Gates, has called forth some interesting
correspondence between this gentleman
and Principal John I. Buchanan, of the
Central high school.
Professor Buchanan is in receipt of the
following letter:
Dear Sir and Friend:-I will impose on
you for a little information. Please in
form me how many teachers are employed
in Central high school, and how many of
them are graduates of either of the state
normal schools. I would like to have your
opinion rs to whether the state normals
are worth what they cost.
so far as | have observed, the normal
teachers are inferior to those from denom
national schools. What has been your OBJ
servation?
IF you desire your opinion to be private.
please so state. am in favor of the bill
introduced in the general assembly to cease
appropriations to the normals and abolish
their power to grant certificates.
Please let me hear from YOU concern
ing the normals. Inclosed find circular
which has been sent out"
The circular referred to in the letter is
