ON THE REGISTRATION
Democrats Have Solid Basis of Fact and Actual

day TO a News-Democrat reporter, ito
clear the atmosphere OF this Republican
hot air talk on being satisfied with reg

II know a thing or two about this mat
ter and how registration jumped during
the last few weeks.

about having got 10 work early. He will

be Manhattan, but just Providence; and
one OF the curiosities for future histori-
ans would be a photograph OF the Re-

"But the fact Is the Republican office
holder has found bluff so useful fac
tor in the past years that he won't be
convinced that there is not one more
fight left for that banner.
Democrats who have done the real
work know that in different sections OF
the city men have gone TO the city hall
this year and registered who have sell

flying TO vote
These men are all disgusted with
Braytonism but they have heretofore
claimed that II was no use to make the
fight.
Some OF them had the stiff argument
OF Col Goddard's candidacy and the ear
nest work being done by an honest and
fearless Democrats paper put up to
them; and they admitted that II was just
now worth while to take hand In the
fight.
There will be lots of surprises next
fall. The Independent voters are fully
aware that the Democrats In their reg

ship.

and without stopping to bother about the

How different the talk OF the Repub-
licans now. All they claim is that some
time early I'm the year they got the men
who they supposed would be with the
Graft In People machine no matter who
happened to go to the city hall. Since
the Christmas holidays the issues have
become more marked
THE Democratic leaders In their regis

course by saying that the arguments
against Braytonism would be so strong
this year that 1t would be well TO make
the resulting blows as strong as possi-
BILE. and the people could be trusted II
they only qualified to vote.
Another thing that is certain is that
when the ward figures are given out 1t
will be found that the Democrats OF
Wards 3, and 10 are remarkably well
registered this year Anyone who follow
ed things close the last few weeks knows
that registration practically doubled in
that time.
