INDIANA A HUGE sum

plan Is desirable in cities. where there
where people do not know each other
as they do in the county. but they can
not see the necessity for such a scheme
in the country.
From a number of counties reports
have been received of the Indignation
OF the voters over the registration
plan. In fact, some of the leaders OF
both parties are considerably worried
over the possible result of this feeling
on the part OF voters. Many OF them
say they will not register.
State Chairman Sims is planning a
vigorous and careful effort on the part
Of the republicans OF the state to bring
out as large q registration OF republi-
can voters possible on the first reg
istration day, which will be on May 0.
He has directed that complete poll be
taken of all republican voters in every
township in the state before that date
in order that the local organizations
may see to it that every man registers
who can possibly be got to the regis
tration place.
This poll will not be worth much as
an indication of the political complex
ion of the precinct or township. be-
cause IT will not be the purpose to poll
| any except republicans. The state
committee will furnish poll books for
this purpose.

A large delegation of sanitary ex-
perts in Hammond this afternoon for
the fifth annual meeting of the Lake
Michigan Sanitary Association. The
meeting was held in the University

Comerce. and by the various city offi-
cials of the different Calumet region
Acities.
One of the most important papers
dealing with the Calumet region stu .
alton with reference to its water sup
ply. drainage and sewerage disposal

TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.
Indianapolis. April 3.-Much opposi-
ton has developed in many parts OF the
state to the new voters registration
law, and some of the politicians say
they will not be surprised to see
large number of voters refuse to regis
ter. This difficulty is reported among
the voters of both parties and II Is
hard to tell at this time what the
effect may be. 1t is said that this
trouble is encountered in the small
counties and IN the agricultural and
rural counties more than in the coun-
ties in which cities are situated. In
the rural counties the voters take the
position that there is no reason why
they should be required TO register to
vote at the elections. Many of the
older residents say that they have lfv-
ed in the township and in the precinct
for many years, they are known to
everybody in the township and they
are acquainted with every man. wom-
an and child in all the neighborhood.
SO why should they be required to reg
lister their names in order to be allow
ed to vote when they have been voting
in the same precinct for years.
/ Many of them take it as a reflection
on their integrity for the law to come
along now and make them register un-
/ der penalty of being deprived of the
right to vote. They admit that such a

Privilege of Appearing
Before Civic Body.

Henry Lee. the editor of a publica
tion known s the Calumet Record and
published in South Chicago, met with a
severe frost last night before the Com

ability to attend and requesting the
privilege of addressing the club at n

THE POOR OLD ERIE.

Spring is late this year: every
body knows that. Not everybody
knows the reason for this, however,
and consequently the argument adj
vanced by a well-known Hammond
woman seems quite plausible. The
group of ladies, of which she was
one. was discussing the disagreeable
weather.
II wonder what causes spring to
be so late this year said one of the
ladies as she made a mental picture
of a frost-b bitten Easter bonnet

another one, resignedly, that's
easy. It's coming In on the Erie"
