REGISTER TOMORROW

Persons who have failed to register
must avail themselves Of the oppor
tunity tomorrow or they viii be de-
barred from participating in the pri-
maries. L@
There should be a special effort to
induce all good citizens to register, as
tho primary elections will be almost
as important as the general election.
No one has a right to find fault with
the nominees. who has taken no part
in their selection. and every good Re-
publican should take enough interest
in securing clean, able candidates, to
register.
It is useless TO object that the pay
meat Of dollar is an absurd condi-
tion. Il is the law and must be COM
piled with till it is changed. Two reg
istration days have passed, and If a
third goes by and citizens fail TO quail
ify for the primaries, they advertise
the fact that they hold their citizen
ship cheap. .-l

NEWSPAPER
OPINION
Another Centenarian Recipe


From the New York World.
Ralph Bullock who celebrated the
one hundred and fourth anniversary of
his birth at his home in Fort Hamil-
ton on Monday, surrounded by fifty-two
children and grandchildren and 172
great-grandchildren. thus gave his
recipe for long lasting:
Live outdoors. smoke, eat and drink
when you feel like it, and never let
worry enter your daily life. Take life
as you find it, and always manage to
find il pleasant.
A hundred persons might adopt this
rule and follow it rigidly, and not one
of them live a hundred years. Mr.
Bullock started right by having sturdy
stock for his ancestors. Inheritance
is the better part of the capital of long
livers. Then he chose vocation adj
mirably adapted to prolong life-that
of a gardener. The exercise is gentle,
it is all taken in the open air. and to
those who love the work-as most
gardeners dot is pleasant and tends
to promote a tranquil mind and good
digestion.
This veteran, who is four years be-
yond the century mile-post, upsets the
theories of certain dogmatists by the
statement that he has used tobacco
and liquor nearly all his life, when he
felt like it." But his rule has been
moderation If he had "felt like" tax
ing a drink every hour and had smoked
his clay pipe most Of the time the
chances are that he would have found
grave in the Potters Field fifty or
sixty years ago.
All the centenarians agree on the inn
portance of avoiding worry" but to
persons who are not built that way
it is as impossible to avoid worry as it
is to live without eating.

rnE GnaNp Old PAnrY

AS the convention of the Republican
party approaches, there is much inter
est shown in its possible plans and
purposes. That its voice will be in har-
mony with the national policy and con-
sistent with the chain Of great princi-
pies which has given the party its mar
velous success. cannot be questioned.
IT was loyal through all the years of
defeat. loyal when victory perched
upon its banner, and loyal it remained
when selAshness and greed came in to
steal the results Of that victory.
The convention which win assemble
in Dover Un Tuesday will be represen-
tative Of all that is best and soundest
in the party. and its voice alone will be
needed as representing the Republican
position. It's platform will contain
planks in harmony with the policy of
the national party, and every one will
be the result of honest conviction, and
not dictated by expediency.
The probabilities are that the can
didates that viii be named will have
no opposition. yet it viii not be a ma
chine gathering So far there appears
10 be but one sentiment. and that de-
mands the denomination OF the old
ticket So far all is auspicious. There
is honor. consistency, and we believe
success ia store for the party. It can
not be defeated by Democracy; IL car
only be defeated by those who profess
10 be Republicans.

A report reached Oyster Bay today
that somebody down in Delaware had
started q yarn that President Roosevelt
had made up his mind to throw his
support to Addiclxs in the Delaware

that President Roosevelt was not
