TT IS BROTHER ABNER
And Not the President Who Will
Take a Rest at ATLANTIC CITY

Chicago Tribune says: An announcement
that President McKinley's brother Alb
ner and his family have gone to Atlantic
City for recreation led to a story that the
president also contemplated a visit to this
popular resort. There is foundation
for such a yarn beyond the suggestion
made by some well-wishing friends of the
president that he should take a vacation
for few days and rest up somewhere
near Washington.
To all suggestions the president turns
deaf ear, saying he regards it Impossible
to get away from the capital at this time
and in fact he cannot see his way clear
for a vacation for some time to come. APP
pointmentS to all kinds of places are be-
ing urged at the White House and some of
them demand immediate attention With
in a few days it will be necessary to sell
ect several assistant secretaries of the
various departments and the papers of the
applicants are now under consideration by
the president.

A RUSH TO REGISTER.
Names of Thousands of Voters Regis
tered Yesterday and Today.

Why people wait until the last day to
register is one of the unexplainable facts
connected with city politics. For months
the force in the office has been lounging
around killing time and people paid no
attention to the repeated requests to re-
giSter. Now four men are kept busy writ
ing certificates and voters wait in crowds
for their turn
Yesterday from 1 to 7:30 p. m. over / 900
names were put on the books. This morn
ing the rush again commenced and it will
probably continue until late tonight for
this is the last day upon which voters can
register.
There now 1856 male voters and 1.5S6
women voters who will be entitled TO vote
at the coming city election The list of
male voters is still at least LOCO short

One of the oldest voters in the city was

went to the registration office unassist-

Mr.. Logan came to Kansas with Jim

through the war in a Wisconsin regiment
While son who lived in Missouri spent
four years in the rebel army.
The old gentleman is Republican and
he says he always will be. After he had
been given his registration certificate
today he said: 1T makes me mad to see
people point to the administration of An
drew Jackson as an example. The truth
is that JackSOn'S adminiStra ton was one
of the worst we ever had. I was voter
then and can remember something about
it. He threatened to hang Calhoun and
then did exactly what Calhoun wanted
him to do, lowered the tariff. That is
just what Cleveland did too It makes
me sick to hear people talk about Andrew
Jackson and his administration when it
was the biggest fraud this country ever
had"

Those Warrants.

An innocent paragraph in The Her
aid day or two ago has caused the
genial denizens of the county clerk s
office s eral Decks of trouble The
matter had to do with a bundle of
warrants left over from year to year
and carried on the books as warrants
outstanding.
The Herald mentioned them as the
result of a series of queer accidents
or incidents in the conduct of county
affairs, and stated that most of the
claims had been paid. A few of the
names and the amounts of warrants
were published as examples, and the
statement made that if any of the
payees mentioned really had valid
claims the commissioners would with
out doubt find a way to pay them.
Then the fun began. The paper was
hardly circulated before man trotted
into the clerks Office and endeavored
to establish valid claim TO a warrant
which was a reduplicatiOn of a warrant
which he had received a year before.
This customer was hardly disposed of
before another appeared, and so on.
The matter ran in the semi weekly.
and TO make matters worse another
paper clipped the list of names. saying
that warrants were there waiting for
them.
The employees of the clerks office
and the commissioners are duly CRATE
full that The Herald published only a
few of the names instead of all. for in
the latter event life would have been
a burden to the officials for some time
to come.
The commissioners will likely destroy
the bundle of warrants, as they have
a right to do.

County Commissioner Busy With
Routine Matters-Salaries Not
Fixed Yesterday = Many Old
Claims
Ogden. January 20.

The business of yesterdays meet
ing of the county commissioners was
mostly of a routine nature, but occa-
siOnally the dignined solons would
pause in their labor of auditing bills
incurred in 1896 and discuss matters in
an informal way.
When the bills of the Evening Press
for additional charges for printing the
delinquent tax lists came up, a good
deal of this informal discussion was
INDUCED in. Harmon was for dis
allowing the bill. Seaman advised eau
ton and suggested that Manager
Thomas be given a chance to appear
before the board and explain the re-
markable bill. Armstrong wanted
to know why Thomas had not
put in the bill for trimmings
before Seaman suggested that he had
got his second wind, whereat Arm
strong implied that such wind should
be shut off. Harmon suggested that
the clerk convey a notice TO Mr.
Thomas inviting him to be present
on Monday at the board meeting and
explain the bill. Armstrong, who had
been talking with Thomas, thought
there would be no necessity for spec
ial messenger, as Thomas would likely
be around to see what had been done
with mis- claim for $207.
1t was finally decided to hear what
MI. Thomas has to say in explanation
of the bill at Mondays session.
Other business transacted yesterday
was as follows:
A number of claims were received
and referred and others were reported
upon and paid.
George Ritchie's application for ap-
pointment as constable of Marriott, to
fill a vacancy, was taken under advise
ment.
The clerk was instructed to present
claim to the state of Utah for one
half of the cost of making and correct
ing assessment plats for 1896 and for
claims of balance due for similar work
in 1894 and 1895 amounting in all to
$2625O.
A form of receipt to be taken by the
collector when school tax is refunded
was adopted.
The committee on supplies was au-
thorized to purchase needed stationery
A number of tax deeds and similar
matters were adjusted.
The claims of Valentine Gideon,
$5S.66, and Ben Ternes, $10S.15, for serv-
ices rendered when as United States
commissioners they sat as committing
magistrates, were disallowed. The rea-
son was that the opinion of the former
county attorney was to the effect that
the services should not be paid for by
the county.
The board took a recess till 10 a. m.
today.

that after Witnessing, for many years,
the marvellous cures of Bronchial,
Throat and Lung affections wrought by
this wonderful remedy, its manufac-
turers feel warranted in saying that
this remedy will cure 9S per cent of all
cases of consumption, if taken in the
earlier stages of the disease.
