FIRST TO REGISTER.
VIM. E. Petit Obtains Voucher Ger
tificate No. /.

The first man to register for 1904 at
the election commissioners office this
morning was William E. Petit, of 635
Lime street, a fireman at headquarters.
He was cleaning off the sidewalk 10
front of the department headquarters
when the door of the election commits
sioner's office was opened. He immedi-
ately went in and registered.
He had hardly given his name when
rushing in. He wanted to get certii-
cate No. 1, but had to content himself
with No. 2. George Goodrich, another
headquarters fireman, got No. 3, and
Phillip Spra que, custodian at the city
hall, was in line for No. 4.
Thus it will be seen that the first
four certificates in the new registration
We're issued to four city employees.
The first women to register was
She gave her occupation as that of
housekeeper and her age as 46. She
was the only woman to register this
forenoon.
Certificate No. Is went begging for
quite a while. George Wagner was
really entitled to the unlucky docu-
ment, but he SHE'D, and asked to be
given No. A. Several other men were
offered 13, and declined. 1t was finally
issued to T. w. Reynolds, a carpenter,
living at 435 East Seventh. Keep your
eye on Reynolds this year, and see his
business methods win.
There was one man to register from
the new fourth precinct of the Third
ward 1t was Phillip Sprague, who got
certificate No. f.
Up to noon today about 35 people had
registered, and it will probably reach
so before night.

WIDE TIRES STAND.
Judge Hazen Upholds Validity
of Ordinance.

Judge Hazen decided this morning, in
the case of Jesse Smith against the city
of Topeka, that the wide tire ordinance
should stand.
In delivering his opinion Judge Hazen
said: This case comes as an appeal
from the police court. A motion to
quash the complaint has been made on
the ground that the ordinance is in
valid. The only questions are, Is the
ordinance unreasonable. and has the
city right to pass such an ordinance?
The ordinance provides that all wagons
carrying a load of 4, 600 pounds or more
on paved streets shall have tires four
inches wide. Every person who bauls
a load of that weight or over on the
paved streets in wagon with tires
less than four inches wide is guilty of
violating the ordinance. 1t is not for
this court to place its judgment against
the mayor and city council If it did
the ordinance would not last long. but
there are certain matters for the city
to control and the courts cannot inter-
fere unless they are unreasonable.
1.-THE city has control of the streets
and I take it that under the city char
ter the city may regulate the width OF
the tires of vehicles and unless unrea-
sonable the ordinance must stand. 1
do not think the court is justified i'll
saying that this ordinance is unreason-
able but it is bad legislation. We have
wide, we'll paved streets and personally
] see no reason for so burdening team
sters. Many will be unable to comply
with the ordinance and will be depriV-
ed of their usual occupation This Will
tend to lessen the number of teams and
increase the price for hauling. 1 have
not heard of any paved streets being
injured but this is under the control
of the city council and 1 overrule the
motion to quash. although I have tried
to find some way to sustain it. [
! think it is common knowledge that the
moving power behind this ordinance
was outside the city limits. This would
never have been passed but for reason
of public highway to the brick yards
outside of town being cut up by wa

TEST JUDGE CASE.
Right of Governor to Appoint VIII Be
Tried

The validity of Governor Bailey's ap-
pointments in the vacant district judge
ships is to be tested in the supreme
court in a case from Wyandotte coun-
ty. Judge E. L. Fischer, who has been
on the bench for3 the last four years,
will yield it to j. McCabe Moore, Gov
ernor Bailey's appointee, and viii then
bring q case in the supreme court to
test the validity of the appointment.
An agreement to this effect has been
reached between them, and they will
urge that the case be heard next month
and decided as soon as possible.
Three other judges are affected in the
same way. They are Judge o. L. Moore
of Abilene, to succeed whom the COVER
nor has appointed J. t. Dickerson of
Marion; Judge Marshal Gephart of Os-
lzaloosa, who is succeeded by G. F.
Burrell of Holton, and Judge d. M.
Dale of Wichita, who is succeeded by
T. c. Wilson.
The question hinges on the interpre-
tation of the biennial election amend
ment to the state constitution, which
was adopted a year ago.

1t has been one of the most popular
courses at Harvard, but recently has
