VOTERS REGISTER
OVER THE COUN fY
NO RUSH TO GET CERTIFICATE
BUT THE LEGAL BOARD Is GEN.
ERALLv RECOGNIZED.

While there is no great rush to reg
lister, the voters of the county gener-
ally are taking advantage of the op-
portunity to qualify and by the end
of the general registration one week
hence it is expected that largely more
than one-half of the qualified voters
in the county will have registered.
Naturally the Columbia courthouse
precinct leads and already there have
been about 275 registered at this
place. So far as reported Culle0ka
leads in the country districts with a
total registration of 125 which is just
about half of the vote ordinarily cast
at that place. At Leftwich, one OF
the small precincts of the county
there have been about sixty registra-
tons.
At some places the interest is very
small and the number who have regis
tered does not compare with the num-
Der who registered during the same
days two years ago This is notably
true of the court house precinct
where two years ago the first day saw
a total registration of more than 200.
The registration will continue dur
ing the week and next week until
Thursday night The books being
open daily from o'clock in the morn
iug until 9 o'clock at night.
Despite the appointment Of a
trump" board of election commits
sioners in the county voters are reg
istering with the legal board without
regard to politics. 1t seems 10 he
generally taken for granted that the
rump board will not amount to any
thing and no one is paying any at
tention here 70 the Dibrell-Taylor AZ

ment of registrars by the legal beard
has been thoroughly satisfactory to
all but a comparatively few partisan5

Passion Play Worth Seeing.

Supt. w. P. Roseman, who heard Pro-
lessor c. G. Parlin give his illustrated
lecture on the Passion Play, states
that it was the best illustrated
lecture that he has heard for a number
of years. Professor Parlin spent last
summer in Europe and witnessed the
rendition of the Passion Play and has
given careful study to the people of
Oberammergau. He is master of the
subject and delivers it in very pleasing
manner. The slides which he uses in
illustrating the different scenes are
very clear, inspiring, and worth the
price Of admission without the lecture.

Here's to You, IriShmen.

The following from the Chicago Post
is so true and such a fine description Of
the real genuine product of the Emerald
Isle that it is reproduced for the real
''Tips" remaining in Watertown and
vicinity:
Irishmen mean much to this country.
Just what they mean is hard to say.
Ireland is paradox among nations, and
the Irshman is puzzle among men. In
fact, Ireland is no nation at all; it is,
like Boston, state of mind. Likewise
it is not living in Ireland that makes a
man Irish, but it is belonging to GER
tain psychological type. To call him a
Celt is an attempt to seem wise; it is a
dim, anthropological subterfuge. He is
not more Celt than your modern John
Bull is a Saxon, which is not at all.
The only way to learn what an Irishman
is, if you want to know, is to eat with
him or fight with him.
He is bundle Of charming inconsis-
tencies. With genius for organiza-
ton and tremendous appetite for office
and authority, he is at the same time
the man who invented insurgency.
Whatever the government is, he's against
it. That is because he's a poet, ali
idealist, and lover; and for such there
is but one government, which is the
kline that we have not.
A strenuous religionist, he is about
the only kind of a man left in these
neutrality-suspicious. days that cares
enough about the church to give you a
caack if you say word against it.
Irish women are proverbially chaste
and the men spontaneously witty, for
one and the same cause, a certain spir-
itual accuracy of vision that comes from
a simple and clean cut faith.
OF all the herbs in the great melting
of America, wherein we are connecting
the man of the future, the one we could
least spare is the vivid, sweet and
wholesome green that is the product of
the Emerald Isle.
Here's to you, Irishmen. You're the
standing minority report. On with you,
and let no man step on the tail Of your
coat.

SOMETHING ABOUT MONEY

Forty years ago the circulat-
ing medium in this country was
less than five dollars per capita.
Now it is approximately thirty
seven dollars per capita, the in
crease being over seven times as
much, thus lessening its purchas-
ing power and making it possible
for a few to accumulate millions of
dollars at the expense of the masses.
During the period mentioned, the
labor wage has not increased in
the same ratio as the circulating
medium and the cost of living.
Then dollar and half per diem
was considered fairly good wages,
for with it, the laborer could pur-
chase two to three times as much
of the necessities of life and have
money left to invest in a home for
himself and family. The policy of
the government has been to issue
bonds from time to time to be de-
posted by the national banks to
secure the sum upon which the
government pays interest and the
banks loan the money and receive
interest, the banks drawing both
interest from the government and
from those to whom loans were
made. An effort has been made in
the recent past to secure the enact
ment of a national law establishing
a great central bank in Wall street,
New York City, in order to fix the
price and value of money to further
dispoil the wage worker and pro-
Queer. It is time that there was
a change and the value of our
money placed upon substantial
basis, for should we have a fnan-
cial panic, most of the property Of
this country would pass into the
hands Of the monied barons, a con-
dition for which the big ronied
interest may be working.

Into the Shadows

One of the best men in the city fell
asleep in what mOrtals call death Friday
afternoon at his residence, 4O7 North
Second street, Mr.. Louis c. Fisher. No
one knew the departed but to respect
him and admire his many excellent
qualities of head and heart. He was
a christian in all the word implies; a
good citizen, one of the best; an upright,
conscientious man who will be greatly
missed by his family, friends, and those
who have dealt with him for he was
scrupulOusly honest. His bereaved
family have the sympathy of all in the
great grief which has come into their
lives. but there will be reunion and all
tears will be wiped away.

OverdreSSing School Children

The following from the Evening
Wisconsin is so good and to the
point, we commend it to the parents
of this city for careful persual:
In lecture at the First Baptist
Church last evening Doctor Emma
F. Drake occupied solid ground
when she dissuaded well-to-do
parents from sending their children
to the public school in rich clothes.
In the first place, the practice is
likely to be injurious to the
character of the children who are
overdressed, causing them to be-
stow thought upon their clothes
that should be concentrated upon
their studies. In some cases they
may be foolish enough to assume
themselves superior in taste or
refinement to others less elegantly
attired. Secondarily it fills with
heartburnings many whose parents
cannot afford to furnish their
children with fine clothes, and leads
foolishly ambitious parents to en-
ter into a competition in wasteful
expenditure which they cannot
afford.
The bad effect upon poor children
of seeing some Of their school fell
lows ostentatiously dressed often
is evident even where the richly
dressed children are free from
snobbery. Where snobbery exists
the situation becomes intolerable.
School is a place for simplicity
There may be harmless competition
in neatness, but not even at exhi-
bition time should there be per.
mitted rivalry in expensive clothes.
The schools in which fine clothes
for graduating exercises are dis.
couraged deserve encouragement
for they are in the right.
Nothing should be tolerated IL
the public schools that tends tc
emphasize class distinction. Class
distinctions are odious, especially
in a republic.

Weather Prediction for May

A regular storm period, having its be-
ginning in April, will eliminate, in east
ern parts of the country the first two or
three days in May. A seismic perid also
reaches in to the same days.
A reactionary storm period will culin-
mate on and touching the 4th and 9TH.
High barometer, very cool weather with
probable frosts northward from about 9Th
advancing eastward and southwark.
regular storm perid covers the 9th
to the l4th. High temperature, falling
barometer and electrical storms, general
and violent in many localities. From
10th to 10th constitutes period of se1s
mic strain that will probably cause
earthquake shocks in many parts of the
globe. Cooler weather with probable
frosts may be expected from 18th to
18th.
A reactionary storm period will bring
warm weather on and touching 18th to
18th followed by cooler weather for sew
eral days.
A regular storm period falls from Goth
to 18th central on the 22nd. For ceful
storms Of rain, wind and thunder may
be expected during this period and
dashes of heavy hail will be quite natu-
raj at this time.
A reactionary storm period is central
on the 9th to 10Th change to very warm
resulting in vicious storms of thunder,
wind and rain.
Those who have followed these predic-
lions from month to month, know that
they have been fulfilled to a great ex-
tent and that it is wise to heed them and
be fOrWarned.
