BIG REGISTRATION.
There was tremendous squirt in the
registration Thursday afternoon, and
indications are now that the total num-
ber of names on the commissioner OF
elections books tonight will be nearly
or quite u, 000
At IL o'clock today the total registra-
males and $3.50 were females. This is
very heavy for an off year, especially
in view of the fact that there is an
exceptionally light registration in the
Fifth and Sixth wards. The registra-
tion of the First and Second wards
promises to be very heavy Carria ges
are working industriously today bring
ing in the Second and Third ward
voters
The registration on Thursday amount
ed to almost LOCO. which is almost
equal to the best records of the office.
If the expectations of Election Com
missioner Williams are fulfilled, the
registration today will exceed that of
yesterday by several hundred. 81
should not be surprised to find that we
had 10000 names on the books when
they close tonight" said Mr.. Williams
This large registration is favorable
to the candidacy of Miller in the First
these wards are supposed to be nor
mally Republican. and it is only when
the Republicans forget to vote that the
Democrats have much show.
STILL HUNT TALK
There is still considerable talk of a
still hunt in the Fourth ward Moth
ing definite can be ascertained about
the situation, however. There is to be
a meeting of the Women's league this
afternoon at Lincoln post hall, and If
any scheme is on foot to spring a dark
horse candidate to defeat Weber, it
will probably be discussed at that
meeting.
Mr.. Weber said this morning: st
have the assurance of the chairman of
the. Republican city central committee
that there is no dark horse candidate
to be put in the race, but have heard
from several sources that the women
might make an effort to repeat their
Snattinger trick 1 have done my best
to get out a heavy registration, and do
not think there is much chance to beat
me-"
There is quite a large registration in
iz 1erbf to he
due to the desire of the women to take
no chances on losing the fruits of their
victory over Snattinger by allowing
