General George Stone, chairman of
the Republican State organization,
and the members of the eXecu-
tive committee are highly graf
flied over the reports received from
various sections of the State. The re-
suits in the line Of registration are not
in any sense disappointing. In fact,
Republican registration is up to the
mark The falling off is in Democrats
strongholds. Careful and effective
work in the direction of bringing I'M
registered voters to enrolment has
produced a happy result.
