MANY NEW
REGISTRATIONS,
The Books Closed on MOnday.-Yes-

= Y q

| terday Was the Last Day i'm
Which to Pay Poll Tax.
The registration books for the Dem
ocratic Primary closed Monday, and
yesterday was the last opportunity to
pay poll tax for the years 1906 and
1907, SO as to entitle persons to vote.
At 5 o'clock on last evening Tax Col
iector ID. T. Smith closed the poll tax
books, as required by law, and voters
who have not paid their taxes cannot
participate in the primary.
There has been decided increase in
payment of polls during the last week,
but many persons failed to pay and will
be barred, because of unpaid polls.
Tax Collector Smith and his efficient
assistant, Leo Fisher, were prepared for
the rush and promptly accommodated
everyone, and the business was carried
Oh with Dispatch
| Tax Collector Smith is now busy
making up the list of those who have
paid the polls charged against them,
and will hand this over at once to Super
visor of Registration John R. Wetherel.
The registration books, including the
new voters who swung into line for the
primary are posted, and made out in
duplicate, as required by law.
Supervisor Wetherell and his deputies
will begin work on the list of those
whose taxes have been paid, as furnished
by Tax Collector Smith. Opposite the
names of registered voters who have
paid will be stamped, on the registra-
| ton books, the word Paid" in the
column for 1906 and 1907, or either or
| both.
| Those against whom no poll tax is
charged have already been stamped as
"non-liable," and as soon as the list
| from the tax collector is received, and
checked against the list of registered
voters, everything will be in readiness
for the primary, SO far as qualification
of electors and posted books are con-
cerned.
In Daytona there were 81 new regis
trations, while Seabreeze boasts of %
new electors.
| The printed instructions for inspectors
and clerks. and the printed cards i'll
structing electors how to vote, ETC.,
have been printed, and are on hand
ready for distribution. They will be
sent out to the several polling places
when the ballot boxes, tally sheets, etc,
are sent, with the ballots.
The books, with the names Of the
qualified electors therein, are completed,
save for the checking up against the
tax collectors list, and this is being done
as rapidly as possible.
State Democratic Chairman Arthur I.
Williams has sent out the required list
of state candidates, whose names must
be printed On the ballots in each county,
with the list properly certified to, as re-
quired by law.
The list of county candidates is, of
course, in the hands of County Chairman
Ihayer, and everything is, therefore,
ready for the printing of the ballots.

A Campaign Liar.

He always comes as an election or
primary" approaches. He is no re-
spector of persons, he is frequently
we'll nigh emnipresent. No ones
reputation is safe in his hands, he
spares not yourself nor your family in
his malicious effort to gain his point.
He attacks sometimes openly but us
ually under cover, like the Indian he
seeks to cover his tracks, but gets
there lust the same" His lies are cir
culated by insinuation, by shrug of the
shoulder, by nod or shake of the head,
by stating half truths, as well as whole
falsehoods. No motives are good. He
impugns them all. There is nothing
good in any one save fme and my wife,
my son John and his wife His ambi-
lions must be gratifed, it matters not
over whose carcus he must walk to
crafty them. He sows dissentioA,
he destroys regulations, alienates
friends, divides families, aSsassinates
character. His motto is "get there, :"
be the means fair or foul get there. 3"
He is a dangerous character, the
Campaign Liar" Avoid him, disbe-
lieve him, nulify his ISLANDERS, encour-
age truthfullness, charity, kindness.
Not all candidates are liars, thieves,
murderers, the "campaign liar" to the
contrary Notwithstanding. The cam
paign liar should have no abiding place
among us. But he can thrive only
upon the credulity of the people.

FREE BRIDGE OR
REDUCED TOLLS.
correspondent Says all Automobile
owners are not Miilionaires.-
Free Bridge Possible.

| Editor Gazette-News:-
One OF the greatest hindrances to the
growth and prosperity of Daytona and
the towns on the peninsula, is the ex-
horbitant rates of toll exacted for cross
ing the three bridges over the Halifax
river. In the first place, keeping the
three bridges, which are controlled, and
Tor the most part, owned by the same
parties, under separate regulations, is
absurd, and pass or a ticket on one
bridge should be good on any other
bridge.
Then the obstacles put in the way of
the ferry boat landing just south of the
Central Bridge, which was a most de-
sirable accommodation to many people
who could not walk over the bridge, in
dicates the "grab-all" policy of the
bridge owners. With the ferry landing
north of the bridge, compelling opening
the draw about four times an hour,
greatly hindering the patrons of the
bridge, makes two ways by which the
bridge company is discommoding the
public. Can the people be driven" to
patronize the bridges?
Publishing the receipts of the North
Bridge, which is the least used, is not
very convincing that the other bridges
do not pay large dividends. And then
paying out the receipts in salaries, to
the officers, who are also the owners, is
only trick to show small dividends.
The rate of toll for automobiles is IN
reasonable, as happen to know from
experience, and they really do less harm
to the bridges than any other sort of
conveyance. And the automobile is
charged more than pair of horses,
with steel shoes to dig up the planking
of the bridges. Contrary to the opinion
of the bridge owners, all automobiles
are not millionaires, and it makes con-
siderable tax for a man owning an auto
mobile in Daytona, to take his family
over to get a look at the Atlantic ocean,
once in while
Unless there is Substantil areduction
of tolls, and tickets made good on any
bridge, the agitation for free bridge
should be kept up, and it can be Sc
cured. Yours Truly,
NJ. b. K.

his wife have parted and that neither

circumstances. The little boy is a low
able little fellow and his crooked foot
which is turned at right angles to his
leg. has attracted the sympathy of all
who have known him.
When 1t became known that the
noted specialist would be in the city
during the meeting of the medical as
sociaton this week, the citizens of
Waitsburg made up a purse to have
the little fellow brought down ana

WALI.A WALLA TO BOOST
HER HOME PRODUCTS

A three months strenuous cam
paign in favor of MADE in Walla
Walla" products is to be waged by
the Manufacturers association of this
city. says the Walla Walla Bulletin
Systematic missionary work will be
done among the merchants and their
patrons i'm this city, with a view OF
impressiug on them the logic of buy
ing homemade goods.
At the meeting of the Walla Walla
Manufacturers association. held in
the Commercial club rooms last night,
all members present seemed desrous
of enlarging the influence Of the as
sociation, and many different plans
were presented whereby this might
be done.
Finally, after some discussion, it
was unanimously agreed that a COM
mittee should make a canvass of the
entire membership for the purpose of
raising funds with which to carry on
an aggressive campaign in favor of
home industries. c. T.. Nosler repre-
sentng the Blalock Fruit company,
and f. 5. Dement, of the Dement,
Milling company. each at once pledged
$40 a month to aid in the movement,
while several others promised to con-
tribute stated sums monthly.
Another meeting of the association
will be held again next Friday night,
at which the report of the committee
will be heard and some active and
energetic person will be employed by
the association as permanent Sec
retary, who will devote his entire
time to boosting the sale of Walla
Walla products at home.
Every manufacturer will be visited
by the committee during the next few
days with view of having them con-
tribute to the cause, and should the
plan prove a success as the members
are confident that the plan will be
continued as a permanent affair.
The question of having a manufac-
turers' exhibition again this fall will
he discussed at the meeting next Fri
day night, and judging from the en-
thusasm displayed at the meeting,
there is a strong probability that such
an exhibition will again be given.
