Register Promptly.

1t is of the utmost importance
to every citizen who may desire to
vote in the January primary to
pay his poll tax for this year and
then 90 to the Registrars office
and see that his name is placed on
the voting list. Voters can regis
ter up to the 23rd of December
and can pay their poll taxes up to
and including the 31st. The best
thing to do, however, is to pay the
poll tax as promptly as possible.
There's no use to register unless
you pay your poll tax, and no use
to pay your poll tax unless you
register.

The New Orleans ringsters
thought they had made big
strike when they twice offered to
bet So. 600 that Michel would car
ny the city two to one, both wagers
were immediately taken aud an-
otner $4,000 was offered by the
Hall supporters that Michel would
not carry the city two for one.
Even if Michel was to carry New
Orleans two for one, that would
not be enough to defeat the big
vote the country will give to Hall.
Just keep the New Orleans ring

the rest. Keep down fraud and
