ANOTHER DREAM,
The Registrars of
Voters Will Work
as Usual.
BUILDING PERMIT ISSUED.
Woodward q Powell Com
pany Will Begin Work
at Once.
BUILDING PERMIT ISSUED.

There was story in a morning paper
in regard to the registration of voters
that was the laughing stock at the city
hall yesterday. According to this story
the registrars are to depart from the
custom of keeping their office open on
or before the Saturday preceding cleo
ton, and that in consequence there is
danger of a large number of voters be-
ing left off the lists.
This the registrars and other city Of
ficials interested say is not true. They
claim that the information of the re-
porter that wrote the article could not
have come from reliable source. The
registrars will make no departure from
the custom of other years, and every
man will be given ample time to get in
to the fold before the gates are shut.
The list tackled up In the front entrance
of the city hall is by no means complete.
There is a large supplementary list in
process of preparation, which will con-
tain a large number of additional
names.
Work on the new shop of the Wood
ward & Powell Planer Company is to
begin right away. At the office of the
superintendent Of public buildings at
the city hail. late yesterday afternoon,
permit was granted for the erection
of the shop on Webster street in ac-
cordance with the plans described in
detail in The Spy several days ago.
E. j. Cross is the builder, and Chaplin
& Parker the architects The estimated
cost is $4,000. 1t will be model build
ing in every way, and the firm will have
largely increased floor space for the
workmen. Batter boards have been up
nearly a week.
But one other permit was granted
yesterday. This was to B. w. Stone,
builder. for e. S. Pierce, of a wooden
addition at 172 Highland street. Frost,
Briggs & Chamberlain are the arch1-
tects
"And still they come" as the oldtime
street salesman used to say. The rush
of taxpayers to the office of City Treas
urer F. w. White continues. and the
people are paying their liabilities to the
city out of ample assets without muir
muir. Its like finding money 10
