City Clerk
Until Tuesday of this week, so far
as we known, the statute has been
fully eomniea-a~ths on Tuesday aft
ernoon, however. a Republican voter
of this city applied for enrolment
blanks at the city clerks office, for
distribution among the members of
his own party. and was furnished
with considerable number. on
Wednesday. the discovery was made
that instead of leaving a blank space
for the insertion OF the name of a
political party. these blanks had the
word Democratic" printed in the
place which should have been left
blank. If the person who was re-
sponsible for this colossal error had
deliberately designed to set a trap
whereby RepaEksal voters should
contrary to then tirFention, enroll
themselves ;ts anenA5eis of the Demo-
cratic party, he could not have de-
vised a smoother or more insidious
scheme.
The innocent voter, relying upon the
fact that these blanks We're issued
from an official source would, in nine
eases out of 10, never discover the
trap. but would fill out only the blanks
which exist in this misleading docu-
ment. The very fact that the blanks
previously issued have been correct
and unexceptionable in form would
lul him into a sense of false security
10 enroll as Republican on this
astonishing blank, the voter must first
discover the fact that ii is a Demo
cratic blank instead of an official
blank and must then strike out the
word Democratic and write in the
word Republican
1t goes without saying that if any
Republican in this city has enrolled
on such blank, under misappre-
PENSION, ia the belief that he was en-
rolling as member of the Republican
party. he has a legal right to have
this false enrolment destroyed, be-
cause in law it is a mere nullity, and
10 file an enrolment blank in accord
ance with his intention. If any voters
the error should be at once rectifed,
and that, too, upon the strength of
their own statements as to the fact
II none of these blanks We're issued
prior to Tuesday of this week, the on
ly Republican voters who need TO in
quire iato the matter in their own in
terest are those vino have enrolled
on or since that day. If, however, suci
blanks were issued prior thereto, W.
believe that a list of all parties wht
have enrolled upon these blanks
should be published in the Kennebe'
Jonrna. in order that innocent axe
publican voters who have been en-
rolled as Democrats may be inform
ed of the error and have opportunitl
Of correcting the Illegal enrolment.
The Journal does not assume in this
case that any fraud was intended. on
the contrary it assumes that th'
blanks In question were printed fol
the Democratic party. as such. ant

service was tied up for miles. Every
roof that commanded a view Of the
Washington monument was TANNED.
Business vas suspended and every
body who could reach a window was
hanging half out Of it and gibbering.
Away off in the distance, about
300 feet up the monument, was a

The New Battleship Texas.

The battleship Texas which l. to
be launched Saturday at Newport
News is the largest vessel ever built
in that shipyard. 1t will be the most
formidable fighting machine Of the
United States navy. The work that
has been done on this ship makes a
record for the shipyard building her
and it Is expected that the vessel
will be in commission months before
the time limit figured upon. When
the Texas is in commission she will
probably proceed to Galveston.
Plans are being made by Texas peo-
PIE, led by the mayor of Galveston,
looking 10 the presentation Of an
augmented silver service, a gift from
the school children of Texas to the
great ~battleship. This presentation,
it Is hoped, will be accomplished as
soon as the ship shall be placed in
commission. 1t is planned to have
her proceed to Galveston at once for
this ceremony. 1t i said at the ship
