RYAN SAYS
CONTINUED from Pane I,

the voters Of the Third and Fourth
Precincts of the First Representative
districts were compelled to register
by signing their names as they came
in the voting booths to cast their bal
lots. Mr.. Ryan claims that this Is a
direct violation of the law.
Ryan says that he refused to sign
his name to the registry books. when
he voted at Olaa, and believes that
the matter IN one that should be looked
into. He quotes. In his letter to Sec.
rotary Mott.Smith, a section from Il
letter he received on the same ques-
ton from former Secretary of the Ter.
ritory a. l.. c. Atkinson, who stated
that there is no law to compel the vot.
er to sign his name before voting.
As a matter of fact, however, there
Is no law which says that the Inspect.
ors of Election shall not ask the voters
to sign their names before voting even
as there Is no law to compel them to
sign. The Inspectors of Election are
required by law to keep tab on all
voters, and the fact that they request

registry book can hardly he construed

NO ENGAGEMENT,
SAYS SENATOR


WASHINGTON, ID. c., Nov. 15.-
Senator Stephen -. Elkins tonight
made the emphatic announcement
that no engagement exists between
his daughter. Miss Katherine Elkins.
and the Duke OF Abruzzi. The state
ment was made with the knowledge
and consent of Miss Elkins, who de-
sires that 1t should be given to the
public, which has manifested so
great an interest in the matter.
Senator Elkins arrived in WASH
ington from his West Virginia home
today. He was asked II he cared TO
make any announcement concerning
the reported engagement of his
daughter. In response he dictated
the following statement:
II do not care to say anything
further than that my daughter and
the Duke of Abruzzi are not engaged
to be married and that | regret tx
ceedingly the annoyance that must
have come to the Duke and his FAM
lily by reason of the almost daily dis
cussion of the matter in the press
and the constant publication of ru-
mors for so long time. rumors
which ! venture to hope will now
cease"
While the Senator made 1t clear
that Miss Elkins and the Duke are
not engaged, he entertained for the
Duke the highest regard. Whether
or not there is any understanding
which might not be termed formal
engagement the Senator did not say.

BALLOTS TO co OUT
Distribution to Election In
SpectorS to Be Made
Tomorrow.
OThL.. SUPPLIES NEEDED.

What are those strange looking
packages laid in an orderly way about
the floor of the record room at the
county clerks office?
No, they are not Christmas pres
ents two months in advance.
They are the bundles of ballots that
will be used at the election next Tues
day. They are kept guarded and each
night are locked behind solid iron
doors. The ballots are entrusted to
the clerk and he is under bond to safe
guard them. They are TO be removed
by the election inspectors tomorrow
If each inspector does not secure his
supplies then, he will not be allowed
pay for his services. 1t might be ad-
visable for the inspectors to come in
a wagon as the supplies they will re-
ceive will be almost too much for one
person to carry. Each inspector will
be furnished by the clerk with twelve
instruction cards and the requisite
number of state, county and township
ballots. From the auditor the inspec-
tors will receive other supplies, such
as pencils, pens, ink, blank affidavits,
etc.

ment levied against real estate pos
sessed by the plaintiffs on the improve
ment
1t is set forth that the cement side
walks were placed unreasonably high
above the land. street and old side
walk and that it is of no benefit to the
plaintiffs. 1t is averred that the walk
was not needed by the plalnt1s, Dut
was constructed sob.y as a means OF
better access to the cemetery. 1njunc-
tion proceedings are instituted to pre-
