NEXT TUESDAY
LAST REGISTRY
DAY FOR VOTERS
Unless Listed, Citizens Must
Sign Personally if They
Would Vote.

Next Tuesday will be the last day
on which citizens of Newark may
register for the general election TO be
| held on November 8.
The registry boards will sit be-
! tween the hours of i o'clock in the
afternoon and 3 o'clock at night to
| enroll the names of those who failed
| TO register on primary day and who
desire to vote at the general cleo
ton.
Voters must register in person.
There is no carrying over regulation
in connection with next Tuesdays
business.
Those who voted at the last pri-
mary are eligible, provided that,
when voting on primary day, they
also registered for the general cleo
ton, to vote on November 8; but If
they failed to take the precaution,
when so voting, to see that their
names were enrolled anew, they may
find themselves barred.
There appears to he some misun-
derstanding in certain quarters In re-
gard to this point.
The impression seems to be that
the fact that a person voted at the
general election last November not
only entitled him to vote at the re-
cent primary by the carrying over
process, but that it also carried his
name beyond the primary to the COM
ing general election, without any oth-
er action being taken.
This is evidently misunderstand-
ing. The name of citizen who
voted at the last general election was
carried automatically on the poll
books to the primary election held
last month. That Is to say, ne was
not required to register specially for
the primary, as would be the case
with a person who had not voted at
the general election in November,
1918.
But the right of the citizen who
did vote last November ended with
this years primary.
If he voted at the primary and de-
sired to vote at the coming general
election he must be regularly regis
tered for that purpose. If he neglect
ed to take this action through his
own oversight, or the failure of the
election officers to call his attention
to the matter and properly enroll him,
he may meet with q disappointment
when he attempts to vote on cleo
ton day.
1t is because of the doubt that ex-
lists in the minds of many that it
would be precautionary measure,
at least, for citizens who are at all
uncertain as to their status, to visit
the registry places next Tuesday and
satisfy themselves that they have
been properly registered for the gen.
eral election.

BAR FIXTURE MEN
DECRY BEER TAX
Newark Association Asks Sen
ators MARITIME and Hughes
to Oppose Levy.

The Bar Fixture Manufacturers
Association of Newark, through It's
secretary, julius Koehler, has writ
ten to Senators MARITIME and Hughes
asking that they oppose the proposed
increased tax on beer. The letter
reads:
I'VE would earnestly request you to
use your utmost influence In opposing
the unjust increase in war tax
against the brewers by the Senate.
The proposed tax by the House Is
detrimental to our line of business
and has already compelled us to dis
pense with two-thirds of our EN-.
ployes, thereby putting at least one
hundred men out of work
THE proposed increase has already
discouraged the saloonkepers in MAX
ing alterations and changes In the line
of bar fixtures and other lines of
workmanship, consequently injuring
our business considerably, and with
further increase in tax 1t would no
doubt compel us to close down our
factories"

May Appeal Verdict That
Kuehnle Says indicates
Him of Dishonesty Stigma

ATLANTIC CITY, Oct. II. - Louis
Kuehnle today heard that Atlantic
City may appeal the verdict in favor
of the Warren Brothers Company, OF
philadelphia. in the United States
District Court at Trenton Thursday
That verdict held the Philadelphia
contracting firm, and not the now
defunct United Paving Company, OF
Atlantic City, executed the contract
which sent Kuehnle to the State
prison.
While silent until they have fully
digested the Federal Courts decision
ex-Judge Cole, who conducted the
city's case against the claim of the
Warren Brothers Company for $780,
724, and City Solicitor Schimpf are
said to be in favor of seeking a re.
versal of the, judgment. Exceptions
were taken during the trial TO sew.
eral Of Judge Rellstab's rulings, with
view to possible appeal.
Nothing can be done, however, UNI
less the City Commission authorize.
an appeal. At least three of the FIVE
members are said to be satisfied tina
the Warren Brothers claim is Just
Politics may operate TO prevent al
appeal that might possibly saddle tn,
brand of malefactor upon Kuehnl,
again.
Atlantic City Is the storm centre o.
a closely contested congressional
fight, with Isaac Bacharach. brothel
of City Commissioner Harry Bach
arach, who started Kuehnle on thu
political shoot-the-chutes early II
1912 by deposing him from the presi
dency of the Water Commission, thu
Republican nominee.
If Commissioner Bacharach vote
for an appeal, his brother in all prob
ability would be overwhelming!
beaten in Atlantic City.
1t is taken for granted tina
Kuehnle will be restored, whel
stockholders meetings are held il
