and the foreses OF some OF the Mid

with striking success. immense i'm
proyement has already taken place
and is steadily going on.
The method of management adopted
calls for sustained yield-that is, no
more wood is cut than the forest
produces. Under this management
the growth of the forest, and conse-
quently the amount cut, has risen
sharply. IN 1880 the yield was twen-
ty- cubic feet per acre; in 1865, twen-

and they are increasing more rapidly
than ever. - .r,,... .k.M
These results have been obtained
in Prussia along with almost ideal
technical success. When what is
wanted is a sustained yield from the
forest year by year in the long run, It
IS clearly necessary to have always
a certain number OF trees ready to
be cut: there must be a proper pro-
portion OF trees of all ages. This
percentage has been secured and
maintained with almost mathenati-
cal accuracy.

FOR a SQUARE DEAL

FOR A SQUARE DEAL
q
without having made pledge O.
any kind TO any man and standing
sdnarely upon the policy of enforcing
the laws without fear of one man anc
favor TO another, John +. McDonougt
is now before the people of Marion
seeking election to the Office of ma.
yor.
Mr.. McDonough, who Is famiharly
known 10 all as Jack, is so well
known tina, he needs no introduction
as a citizen. He is known to be an
ideal man in his home. a thorough
law abiding citizen and as an officer
who has seen thirteen years OF active
service in Marion, he has had few
equals an1 no superiors. A laboring
man he came TO this city with his
family in search of work. BY thrift
and economy he has succeeded in pro-
riding his family with a cozy home
and educating his children to the
very best his means would allow.
For thirteen years he has patroled
the streets of the city, guarding the
property Of the citizens of Marion
Like all true Americans he is am
bilious and now he comes before the
people whom he has served faithfully
iu the capacity of police officer and
asks them Tor support in his race for
mayoralty honors.
Rumors nave been current, as they
always are during political campaigns
that pledges have been made and that
II he is elected mayor, his hands will
be completely tied and the city will
have a head only in name. MC
Donough is authority for the state
ment that not promise OF any kind
has been made to any man and
that none Will be made. He frankly
states that rather than so into The
ofice 10 be n mere igure-head 10 dc
the little biddings Of any clique
heswill be defeated blythe largest ma,
,uroty ever suffered by any man Of
any party.
SMr. McDOnough's plltform can bt
stated in very few words. In SO far
as business OF the Office is concerned
he favors and will insist upon clean
conservative administra lion OF the
city's business affairs. lie recognizes
THE necessity for economy, but Is moi
blind to the fact that some improv'
ments are necessary from time &c
time. Not pressing his conservatism
10 the point OF stinginess, he favors
making those improvements which
ATE necessary and OF eliminating al
those which are not necessary, until
tle time when they can be made
without burdening the taxpayers.
In the administration OF affairs ol
mayors court. he stands squarely FOL
the conviction OF the guilty and the
acqulttal OF the innocent, according
10 the lines OF the law and the eyi'
dehoe produced in uhe case, Neither
theties of kindship, political affilia'
tion, nor friendships win swerve hin
from administering the affairs of the
mayors court according TO the law
and the evidence.
These are the propositions which
AIR. McDonough makes 10 the voters
ofgMalion. 1t they coincide with their
views. then he asks support at the
polls In November, but il they favor
a one sided administration OF justice

does not want their suppof.

tion. The voting places will be open
from eight o'clock in the morning un.
til two o'clock in the afternoon and
from four o'clock in the afternoon un.
til nine O'Clock in the evening. After
that hour 1t will be impossible to re.
gister. II you put it off until after
that hour, there will be no use trying
to get your name on the books, unless
you have been out of the city on both
registration days, and in that case you
must first secure an order from the
board of elections.
Lest some are still unfamiliar with
the provisions OF the law which gov
erns registration, we herewith again
give a brief summary of those provis-
IONS.
With the man who registered fol-
the fall election last fall and has
not moved from the precinct in which
be registered at that time. nothing is
necessary. The registration of last
year suffices for this election.
The man who has moved from the
fall must go TO the precinct voting
place in which he registered, secure
a removal certificate and deposit it
with the registration officials in the
precinct into which he has moved.
This Is imperative. No man can be
registered in his present precinct with
out the removal certificate. This re-
quirement is to prevent his name ap-
pearing ON the registration books OF
two precincts.
All new voters and all others who
did not register last fall, must regis
ter before being allowed 10 vote in
the coming election.
All precinct voting places will be
open Friday and Saturday of this
week, from eight o'clock in the morn
ing until two o'clock in the after
noon and from four o'clock in the af-
ternoon until nine o'clock in the
evening for registration. These are
the only days this fall for registra-
tion and unless the duty Is attended
10 on one of these days, no voter will
be allowed 10 cast his ballot on elec-
tion day.
The registration laws also provide
that in a case where voter has NOV
ed from one precinct TO another af-
ter the regular days for registration,
he may secure a transfer from the
precinct in which he is registered and
present it at his new voting place
on the afternoon of the day imme-
diately preceding the day of election.
All precinct voting places will be
open on Monday before election day
from 2:30 10 $3.50 in the afternoon for
Issuing and receiving such transfers,
but In no case except as stated be-
low can a man be registered at this
time. without a transfer.
All voters who were out OF the
city on regular registration days
are required TO so TO the board OF
elections and secure an order for
registration and present this order at
the precinct voting place on Monday
before election day between the hours
This is in brief the provision OF the
registration laws and there is no ex-
cuse for a voter not qualifying for
the municipal election,
