But | understand there Is a
scheme on foot that will at least in
form the people Of who these indi-
viduals are. It is proposed to have
the names published of all those eli
gible as voters, who refuse to regis
ter because they are either too lazy
or want to escape jury duty. That
will fix them.
I'VE shall go farther. Whether
the Republicans are victorious OF
not. you will see law through the
next Legislature that will fix these
fellows. Wen get them on the Jury
and give them all OF IL to do. They
have had rest long enough. Let them
do all the jury duty If they will not
vote nor attempt to vote.
"The attitude and indifference of
these people Is n crying shame. It Ia
Il disgrace to good citizenship.
IL don't want my name used be-
cause they might get mad and regis
ter Just for the sake of voting
against me. ! don't know but tho
end to be gained is worth the per-
sonal sacrifice"

OMAHA, Sept. 1.-The arrival In

of Mrs. A. Rice, who is detained in
connection with the DR.. Frederick

upon the shooting of the physician on

Jail, where he spent an hour talking
with his daughter, but following the
interview would not talk.
He later visited the chief of police,
with whom he had an extended confer
ence, but that official declined to say
what had developed as result of the
coming of Clary.
At the police station it was stated
that the detective force is now look

made a member of the committee which is
working with the officials and is urging all
other dairymen to get in line for pure milk

field for the establishment of a certihcated
dairy a large number of people daily Visit
the diaries now working under the ordi-
nance and voluntarily offer as high as four
cents per quart above the retail price for

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald
PASADENA, Sept. 5.-Residents of
Linda Vista have planned a mass meet
ing for Monday night in the school
house, at which the question of annex
alton to Pasadena will be discussed at
length.
Sentiment in that district is said to
be unanimously in favor of the project.
The scarcity of water there and the
prospect of an abundant supply from
municipal operations here are said to
be the main reasons for the desire to
change.
With a certain clique in the south
ern part of the tract the burning de-
sire to get rid of the Pasadena health
camp established in that locality, is
also an incentive.
The strip it Is proposed to bring into
the city limits is about one and half
miles long and varies from quarter
to half a mile WIDE 1t comprises some
Of the most attractive building sites in
this neighborhood, but never has been
held at a proper value on account of
lack of water.
