NOTHING GAINED BY REGISTRATION.

A citizen of Globe has made de, mand upon the board of supervisors Of Gila county for complete re registration. The board is divided as to it's power to order such reg istration and the matter is to be laid before Judge Lewis. In some of the counties. Yayanai among them, the supervisors have been advised that they cannot now order new regis trstions.
 That would seem to be the case for, otherwise, the provision of the enabling act, limiting the suffrage 10 those qualified to vote at the election of 1908 would be without effect. Also. we do not see what purpose a new registration would serve fr- this provision is observed as it must be.
 In the case of a new registration it would be difficult if not impossible, for the election officers and chal. lengers to differentiste between those who were qualified to vote in 1908 and those who were not.
 While it has been decided that one may transfer his registration from one county to sEother and while it has been half decided that one may register at any time of the year except within short period immediately preceding any election the date of his registration would appear in the supplemental reg istration so that if he were not a voter in 1908 it would readily be seen that he will not be one on December f2. lsll But new reg istration would wipe all the old dates out, leaving no way of distin. guishing the 1908 voters from the others.
 So there seems to he no reason why there should be a new regis trstion at this time and also. it is  clear that no one has anything to gain by ayailing himself of the privilege conferred by the election laws Of the territory of registering al the office of the county recorder at all times of the year except with. in the short period immediately be fore an election.

THIS IS MERELY A SUGGESTION.

Under the head Of Misplaced Pre- serves" the Wilcox Ranse News thus describes one of the tragedies Of the Cochise county fair
 We regret that all tne notices Of our recent fsir can not be pleas ant ones. Unfortunately two jars o( preserves. one Of pear and one Of peach. belonging 10 Mrs. Josef SchweTner were displaced. It Is probable that some one in the re moving of the goods confused the jars and that they are in safe keep ing somewhere
 We mention, not with the purpose Of casting suspicion upon anyone, but merely as suggestion to the Sherlock Holmeses of Wilcox. that during the fair practically all the candidates for county and state Of. fees were overrunaing the town, and so far as we have been able 10 learn, the authorities of Wilcox ex. ercised no extraordinary precautions.
 If nothing more than two jars oi preserves is missing. that speaks well for the restraint which the can didates put upon themselves.

Indeed, there are some who be- lieve that the ordinary high school course is a disadvantage rather than an advantage to the boy who is to choose a business career; that not only is his time wasted. but he ac- qulres habits Of thought of which he must divest himself in active business life.
 We do not think that this is so. but, ou the contrary, we believe that any boy would find his pathway in any career made smoother by a high school course earnestly followed un- der intelligent direction.
 However, as we have said, all this has nothing to do with The Reviews observation on the existing school system Bad grammar does not. as our contemporary seems to imply. produce good lungs. and de .yeloped limbs and ambitions are not the inevitable accompaniments of "strociols spelling"

TO HARVEST THE
WESTERN CROP

Montreal, August 2.-The Cana
dian Pacific today started the first
Of it's harvesters' excursions to the
West, where the farmers are report
ed to be in need of $4,000 harvest
hands to assist in caring for the
great wheat crop estimated at 900
100000 bushels. The largest num-
Der Of men hitherto sent West for
harvesting was two years ago, when
$4,000 made the journey. The big
increase this year is due to the fact
that the crop in Manitoba, Alberta
and Saskatchewan promises excep-
tionally well, both on land that has
been in cultivation for years, and on
the big additional acreage that has
been broken I'D during the past two
years. The railroads expect to re-
'cruit thousands Of harvesters in On
tario, Quebec and the Maritime Pro-
vinces. 1t is probable that a num-
Der will also: be brought out from

Because of the eagerness with

Some months ago The Advocate
printed an interview held with
George Waters, Of Nashville Tenn.
by Horace D. Slater, in which Mr..
Waters reflected very seriously upon
the past life Of DR.. f. r. Boyd. sec
retary-treasurer of the National
Baptist Publishing Board. Dr. Boyd
very Justly resented the attack and
demanded the proof. This, Mr.. Stat
ter, who wrote the Interview beiiev-
ing the statements contained there
in TO be true. was not able to fur
nish, his informant in the first in
stance being either unable or unwil-
ling to snbstantiate his charges.
The Advocate is pleased to pub
lish elsewhere in this issue the eX-
PLANTATION and apology Of Mr.. Stat
Ter and to Join him in regretting
tnat both he and it were made par
ties to the publicity Of a statement
so false and injurious.
