A Mistake Corrected.

Last week we published a short
item in which the statement was
made that a joint meeting of the
prohibitionists and ant1-prohibi-
tionists was held at Rowan Acad.
envy, and that J. H. Frick spoke
in favor of the vets and Henry
Agner defended the drys. This
was erroneous in two particulars.
First: The meeting in mind, at
the time of writing, was held in
the OH Alliance hall near Union
church, and secondly, Mr.. Agner
was not present at all, but he had
been invited and has expressed
himself as being sorry because Of
his absence. He would have
gladly made reply. There was nc
meeting at Rowan Academy al
this particular time. We were
just simply mistaken in regard te
to the location and Mr.. Agner
failed to appear, that's all. Mr.
Prick claims he said nothing tt
offend any one and did not say
the bill was undemocratic.

As to Registration.

Those who wish to vote in the
coming prohibition election must
see to it that they are properly
registered. Those who we're prop
erly registered and voted in the
last county election, provided
they are living III the same pre-
cinct in which they lived then
and the registration book has not
been lost or destroyed, need only
be sure that he was actually reg
istered before, and those who have
since became of age, or moved
from one precinct to another, must
see that they are registered, if they
wish to vote. Register now and
it will not be necessary to register
again for the fall election. The
registration books will be open at
the usual places till Saturday,
May 10Th. The election will be
held May Goth.
