WHAT VOTERS MUST SECURE
EXEMPTION CERTIFICATES.

Adyices TO The News from points
throughout the state indicate that the
idea has become prevalent that all
persons moi subject to the payment OF
polltax must obtain an exemption GER
tlncate in order to be able to vote at
the elections this year.
This is not true Here are the
facts:
All persons exempt from the pay
ment OF polltaxes who reside in city
OF 10 900 or more inhabitants must OBJ
tain an exemption certificate from the
county tax collector.
Young men who were not u years
OF age January /. 1909. but who will
be OF age on primary election day
July 23) or general election day tNov
81, must obtain exemption certificates
In person in order to qualify as voters.
They must do this whether they live
in city. town or country. No other
person exempt from the payment Of
polltax. and residing elsewhere than
in a city OF 10000 or more. need OBJ
N a certificate OF exemption. This
means that persons residing in the
country. and who were 60 years Of
age or more on Jan. /. 1909, or who
came to the state after tnat date.
or who are deaf anu dumb, blind or
minus an arm or leg, need not secure
certificates OF exemption.
In fact. no one in the country needs .
an exemption certificate save the
young man above Observation-Disclosures .

Another Touch of Winter.

The country has been subjected to
another touch of real wintry weather
during the past few days and il is
believed that what fruit escaped the
freeze of ten days ago got killed good
and dead during this last cold spell.
The temperature dropped at re-
markabIe rate last Friday night and
the ground Saturday morning was
frozen to the depth of couple of
inches. This was followed on Satur-
day by blizzard of snow which fell
to a depth of several inches. It is pos
sibIe that the snow again saved the
ground crops, such as Strawberries
from destruction. the same as it did
the week previous. but fruit growers
say the apple, plum and 9th sr tree
fruits are all killed.
Much apprehension is alsu felt for
the effect the freeze has had upon oats
and barley and some farmers claim
these crops will have to be replanted.
The storm was quite general through
out the middle west and the north
west.

Z During the sidewalk discussion
at the council meeting Monday even
ing one of the alderman called atten-
tion to the uniformity of workmanship
shown in the concrete walks that have
been constructed in Lancaster during
the past few years. In some of the
surrounding towns where the walks
have not been laid more than two
years the material has already disin-
tegrated. Careless workmanship AMI
'skimping" of material has been
brought to light in many cases. In
Lancaster most of the walks are neatly
laid and SO far have stood the test of
! time. The work of the Lancaster
firms has been especially satisfactory
and it was the sentiment of the council
members that in this work home in
dustry should be given as much en-
couragement as possible. Neighboring
towns have paid several cents a foot
less for sidewalks construction than
Lancaster but the difference in each
case can be seen in the comparative
workmanship and durability.
