The registration is piling up to a sur
prising extent. Last night at the close
Of the fourth day there were registered
694 names. For an off year this is a big
showing. The republicans are more ac-
tive than the democrats appear to be.
for all of the last two days members of
that party have been urging voters to
register. Last evening there were at
least % in one bunch, and nearly every
one of them returned the knowing smile
of Alderman G%angner, who stood near
the door of the registration room.
The democrats may find II to their in
terest to get out and drill and remind
the voters that six more days only re-
main for registration and that they
should attend to this important duty.
There are a large number of men who
have no excuse for having neglected to
register before this date. but who think
they will drop in" some day when
they happen along that way. They
should not only register themselves, and
at once. but they should tell their
friends and acquaintances to register
also.
The republicans will have only one
follower in the council, but they are
working right now to make a showing
and IL they win five aldermen on cleo
ton day there will be no one to blame
but the democrats. There are republi-
cam enough in this city to elect the en-
tire ticket If the democrats keep away
from the registration office and let them
do all of the hustling. The democrats
have six more days in which to do inn
portant work.
The primaries will be held this after
noon from 4 to s o'clock in the places
where the caucuses were held in the
several wards last evening.
The convention Will be held at 2
o'clock Tomorrow afternoon in the city
hall.
? The republicans will mold ward pri-
maries mex NJ inlay evening be1ween
the hours Of G md s O'Clock to elect
delegates to their convention to be held
in the city hall next Tuesday.
