After the company had difficulty in Sc

This shows a very large increase in the
colored vote, which jumps from A III May
to 1873 in the recent registration There
was talk of this yesterday and there was
mention of one case in which the name OF
an anti-extensionist was mentioned as hav-
ing insisted that registrar put on the
books the name of negro who was not
qualified under the educational require
ment The registrar refused to do this.
Another question that has been eraised
is one brought about by the registration OF
some Of the veterans at the Soldiers
Home. It is said that it is expected that
these will vote against extension, but the
question of residence will be raised in the
matter, as some of these veterans still
claim their former homes, and some &c
and come from these
Each side is hard at work and it is GER
tain that the vote will be closely contest
ed until the polls close. Yesterdays out
look was that the extensionists were in
better spirits than opponents.
