CHICAGO, Jan. 10.-Federal League
managers and players, who have wor
ried the bosses of other leagues in
the war gathering here, had for the
most departed tonight. President Gil
mere left for Toronto out will be
back Tuesday; Otto Knaba of the
Baltimore Federals, went east, while
Tinker and Miner Brown are confer
ring at St. Louis.
During the week announcements
were made of the signing OF major
leasuers and tonight the Federalists
had started on further hunt for new
materials.
Coy Dolan. third baseman and
former team mate of Knlbe, it is ad
mitted had signed for the Baltim o.
club Knabe meanwhile has not given
up hope of landing Vic Saier, first
sacher, and label, recruit pitcher
also Of the Cubs.
From the Phillies, Joe Tinker has
enticed Catcher Bill Killifer and
Pitcher Ad Brennan and is working
for Pitcher Grover Alexander. He is
also angling for Catcher Wilson and
Pitcher Fromme of the Giants.
Tinker and Miner Brown met in
st. Louis tonight and it was announ.
ced that thsy would tour the minor
league country for more talent
Tinker has the nest signatures to
his credit but it was announced semi
officially here that there would be a
division Of the spoils in order that
the league race would be more even
1t was limited that the newly signed
stars would be distributed.
Before his departure tonight, Pres.
ident Gilmore said that while there
would be no more bombs this week.
something startling might be expect
ed on his return from the east.
six of our clubs will be OF major
league calibre," said Gilmore, the
other leagues have mayer had more
than from three to Ave clubs in the
race. The acquisition of Brennan
Cole, Killifer and Packard on the
heels OF signing of Tinker. Brown and
knahe as managers is only one OF
the early steps. Other surprises will
De sprung and we will not quit until
we have all the players we can take
care Of
Although President Gilmore refused
statement, it was generally beliey I'd
that Jimmy Shreckard, former out
fielder for the Cubs had signed a.
Pittsburgh manager. The Federals
who have been quite communicative
during the week were silent tonight
except that they promised more sur
prises soon
President Murphy of the Cubs, who
has suffered little as yet from the
invasion, tonight gave out a state
ment saying that major leaguers are
foolish to sign In the new league
without getting three years salary in
advance. He recommended a guardian
for the jumpers.

Night.
FINAL SCORE 81 TO %
Purple and White Come Back Strong
in the Second Half But Are
Unable to Overcome
Lead.

Mt. Pleasant high school edged out
a IS to q victory over Kaokuk high
school in the game played at the Y.
NJ. c. A. Friday night 1t was the
first defeat received By the local
school this season and was costly
one mas much as it dins at least to
some extent, whatever state CHI NIPPON
ship aspirations the local school may
have had
Playing the first half with aughan
and Euiskamp, two of the local
schools regular men, on the side
lines, Mt. Pleasant was able to take
an early lead and finished the period
with the score standing % to Z. The
visiting team seemed to have every
thing they wanted in this period
Their accuracy in making long shots
at the basket was the undoing OF the
local school. The local guards work
eo we'll and their opponents were un-
able to get many close shots at the
basket. They contented themselves,
however, with picking them OF from
a little distance and in keeping the
ball out OF the possess ion of the
local team.
First Team Used in Second Half.
When the second half opened
Vaughan and Huiskamp replaced
Newcomb and HUDSON. The effect was
that the local school counted IA
points in this period to made by Mt.
Pleasant. The early lead of the Wis
itors, however. was too great to be
overcome.
Keoknk was pitiably weak, as they
have been in previous games, In
throwing foul goals. In % free throws
at the basket only three ;;mes dii the
ball drop through the net. The Mt
Pleasant team registered 9 points IN
ID throws at the basket. not an un-
usual average With any kind OF
throwing Ksokuk should have reg.s-
teheo II out OF the % throws. enough
to have won the game.
The next game with Mt. Pleasant
will be played at that place on Feb

Notice of New Registration

Registration for the November elec-
tion will begin at the office of the
County Recorder on the first Monday
in May and will continue until ten days
before the county primary election, or
until August 28th, at which time the
books will be closed for seventeen days
and no registrations will be made until
September 18th, at which time the
books will again be opened and regis
| tering continue until October 18th,
when it will be closed until May |, 1916.
The qualification of electors are as
follows: Must be twenty-one years of
age or over; a citizen of the United
States, either by birth or naturaliza-
tion; a resident of Arizona for one year
prior to election, and of the county
and precinct for thirty days; must be
able to read the Constitution of the
United States in the English language
and write his or her name, unless physi-
cally unable to do so.
If elector is a naturalized, citizen or
if naturalized by fathers naturaliza-
tion, he must present his or his fathers
second or final papers to the registra-
tion officer, else he cannot be registered.
If, however, such papers are lost or
destroyed, the elector will be permitted
to register upon executing and filing
with the registering officer an affidavit
giving the time, place and court of is
suance of such papers and the fact of
their loss or destruction and circum-
stances connected Herewith.
The above applies to women as we'll
as men, except that women of foreign
birth becomes naturalized citizens upon
their marriage to citizens of the United
States either by birth or naturalization,
or If already married, the naturaliza-
>tion of the husband carries with it citi-
zenship of the wife.
A person must register in the pre-
cinct where he or she resides, or hold a
certificate of registration to enable him
or her to vote at any primary or cleo
tion. The law by which a person, if
not on the register, could register at
the poll, has been omitted from the
code now in force, and now in order to
vote at any primary or election the
electors name must appear on the
register of the precinct wherein he or
she resides. If, after registering, the
elector moves to another precinct, or
county, he or she must cancel his or
her first registration and then re-regis-
ter in the precinct or county where he
or she then resides. A person must
not register more than once, without
first cancelling his or her prior regis
tratiOn. To register more than once is
a criminal offense and subjects the Of
fender to fine in sum not exceeding
one thousand dollars, or Imprisonment
not exceeding five years, or both.
There is ample time for each elector
to register, provided that every elector
does not put it off until the last day.
In order to facilitate the work in the
Office as well as to avoid a stampede
during the closing days of registration,
would request and urge that every
elector register as soon as possible.
Every person to be registered must
appear before the Justice of the Peace,
Of his or her precinct, and after regis
tering request duplicate of their regis
tration, which the officer is required by
law to give to them.

In this notice 1t appears certain that
these trustees cannot legally expend
any of such proceeds for high school
purposes, but for common school
purposes only.
The voters will hardly trust to
the discretion of such a board the
expenditure of $4,000 to be dug
up by the taxpayers of this little
school district. Why should they?
Since these trustees are managing
two classes of public schools. why
shouldn't they in common sense and
fairness say in the notice for which
school the bonds are to be used?
Why haven't they followed the stat
ute that says: The notices shall
state specifically the information for
voting intelligently on the question. I"
thus rendering the matter satisfac-
tory and safe to the tax payers?
Besides. this suspicious uncertainty
would probably injuriously affect
the sale of the bonds.
This election is for the purpose of
relieving US of quite bit of our
hard earned cash. 1t, therefore,
behooves US to take care that there
is no darkey in the woodpile, and
that there is no crack or chink
wherein even a stunted pickaninny
can hide.
