Team Expects a Battle
 Royal. MANY MoNTGoE-
 ERlANS TO ATTEND Great Interest Manifested Over
 Whole State. Auburn Squad Keyed to Highest Pitch, while Louisiana College Is Confident of Taking Big End
 of Score.

Upon the campus of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute at Auburn there will be wageG. this afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, a gridiron strugg4e. which VIII undoubtedly vie. as a severe test of Auburn's mettIe. with the Sewanee game of last Saturday. The eleven of the Louisiana State University. the vic tors of the Southwest. will meet the Auburn bunch in battle royal.
 Though the Louisiana collsg0 Is not Q member of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association. this apparent lack of caste detracts in no way from it's prowess. and the Alabama boys are pre- pared, in the light of the previous rec which they will do well to maintain tn, prestige acquired from the victory of last Saturday.
 The .Auburn-L. s, U game of today is probably without a parallel in the football history of this State in one in. stance, that of interest involved, tnas- much as one of the teaAls is not 6 member of the s. I. A. A. The inter- est Is probably the outcome of a cu- riousity to witness the performance of the Auburn team which leaped into prominence within few hours, but anyhow, 1t Is overpowering. Especial manifestation of this interest has oc- cured In Montgomery, so much so that the project of running a special train from Montgomery was formulated. And though this project fell through be- cause of the lack of time in which to raise the required number of passen- gers, 1t is known that a large number of old Auburn men and football cnthu- Stasts will visit the college town for the game today. Some will leave this morning at o'clock while others vii, wait for the 1 o'clock train By spe- cial request from the Montgomery well wishers of Auburn, the game will be held up until 3:S0 o'clock, giving the visitors ample time in which to leave Montgomery ct 1:45 o'clock and reach the field in tune to witness the kick on.
 Auburn has been guilty of nothing like relaxation in rigid training. which was feared, in view of the fact that the Louisiana bunch does not rep-s resent an Association team. On tho contrary. they are keyed and trained and practiced even more than ever. and this added experience, with the conf. dence gained in their victory over Iht. Purple. will make them dangerous.
 It is likely however. that the l.. 5. U. team will not fall prey to anything but the most dangerous. This Louisiana team. though ouI Of the pale of the championship aspirants, has proved it.

AST CHANCE TO REGISTER
 IS GIVEN BY BOARD TODAY

Twenty.seven voters were qualified y registration during Fridays ses-
 Ion of the County Board of Registra- Hon. The number exceeds the figures anticipated, as 1t was thought the sum mer session of the board had brought out practically every white citizen of voting age.
 The session of the board will be continued throughout today. from o'clock until o'clock. between which hours will be extended the last chance of participation,i in the national election next Tuesday.W
 The, electioi3 being of unusual jrn- pertance. both by reason of the na- tional' ticket. the absorbing state is- sues. and the county elections, it is probable that there will be a few resi- dents of the county. eligible to vote, who will not have been registered by the time of adjournment of the board.
 The Board of Registrars sits in tthe office of the City Clerk. at the Mont. gomery County Court House today.

GIVE US MoF.E PRECINCTS.

This election more than any other
should suggest to the incoming legisla-
ture the necessity for reducing the
size Of many election precincts. Here
1t is the third and fourth day since
election and results, in some Of the pre-
cincts are still unknown. At O'clock
on the day following election hardly
half the counties had in definite re-
turns, and yet q dozen precincts In
Marshall county were definitely re-
ported by 10 o'clock on election night.
What Iowa needs is more election
precincts instead Of voting machines.
She needs every precinct cut down to
800 votes as maximum. Then the
count on important issues could be
definitely known early on election
might. What Is the expense of 200 more
election precincts when out of 100000
voters the additional cost Of $50 to
500 per precinct would fall on 5000
or more for each. One could almost
raise it each yesr from the fellows
who sit up to read the telegraph bulle
tins.
Let's cut down the precincts with the
big vote and know something about the
results before we have forgotten that.
an election was ever held.

any use for. The members of the two
bodies are urged by constituents in
fact almost forced to secure places
for certain persons. There should be
reforms In this direction, and we call
attention to the matter now in order
that members of the general assem-
bly, may not make pledges and prom
ises in regard to clerkships. The num-
Der of clerks has been so large at
times and their influence has been 50
great that they have almost been able
to prolong the legislative sessions.
One-half of the legislative committees
do not need clerks at all. There
should be In every committee room a
clerk and that clerk should be clerk
OF all the committees which meet
therein. Anything beyond this is ex-
travagance. There should be no parsi-
mony, but simply a good attention to
the interests Of the state in small
things. Let every member-elect take
this subject up for consideration at
once.

years of patronage had so intrenched
him in his district that he is hard to

1t is the business of the Illinois dis

Mr.. Cannon shall continue as a menu
Der of congress. 1t is the business
of the republican party to see that he
does not have further opportunity to
continue his policy Of obstruction and
pose longer as an autocrat in the
house of representatives. Cannon can
not be a national issue so far as his
seat Is concerned He is and will con-
tinue to be national issue as

One of the things this con-
gress should do as an evidence Of good
faith and in submission to the ex-
preston of the great mass Of republi-

that office is to offer aid and comfort
to those who seek the overthrow OF
