FERRY COUNTY POLITICS.


Special Dispatch to the Post-Intc.igencer
REPUBLIC. Feb. 13.-County Commits
sioner II. l.. Percy having resigned his
of ce and moved from the city, the matter
of making an appointment for the posi-
ton by the remaining members has been
discussed the last two days.
1t Is understood Mr.. Percy was a DEM
ocrat, having been appointed to the Of
flee by the governor in the fall OF 1898
The prospective appointment has started
Che various partisans of the several polti-
cal beliefs TO bestir themselves quite lively.
as the fact the appointment was to be
made came rather suddenly. Party or
sanizations have not as yet materiaized
in Ferry county, but from present indica-
tons they Will soon make preparations for
the state fall campaign and presidential
election. Ferry county was strongly popu-
listic when II was organized. but II has
changed considerably In thei last year.
A Republican call will soon be made for
the organization of county central COM
mittee, and the appointment OF five dele
gates 10 the state convention at Ellens-
burg. This Will be the opening of the state
campaign in the county and the first move
toward a permanent Republican organiza-
ton.
I Is thought, should a successor be APP
pointed to fill the office left vacant by
Mr. Percy. IL politics is to be considered
the appointee will be Republican.

There were two record breaking days
this year in the number OF voters enrolled.
Monday ei3 names were recorded and DUR
ing the eighteen hours the office was open
yesterday 100 we're registered. The heavi-
est previous registration was on February
II, 1896. when go names were recorded.

recorded at 11t last night, is $. G. Mo-
zingo Fourth precinct of First ward. At
midnight the office was clear of appli-

The greatest rapid registration was done
yesterday, when 102 names were recorded
in thirty eight minutes. et

ward held the deciding vote In most mu-
ntcipal elections are gone. which IL given
to account for the falling OF In the reg
tstration of that locality OF late years.
in 1899 and 1894 the Firsts Importance
was at It's height. and the ward exercised
ms much leverage on the result OF the
local election as New York formerly did
in national elections. As the First went,
80 the city went. A measure Of this Inn
portance was existent In the Fourth and
Fifth wards. and remains to an extent
today
This Is taken as the reason for the
heavy registrations of 1892 and 1894. when
the totals OF names on the books was 10-
$50. there being a difference of only two
names between them Apart from this
purely local interest OF six and eight
years ago, when every voter was rushed
or TO the registration books. there has
not been such general interest In a To-
cal election as that OF this year. the
number registering for the spring elec-
ton OF 1896 was only s375. and two years
