In view of a recent article in ref

to have new registration certificate
provided the voter has registration
certificate dated in 1908 or subse-

receipt showing the payment OF all
taxes for the year 1914. 1t will not
be sufficient that a party have his

Those who have not registered
can do so on the first Monday in June

register early and not wait until the
last opportunity, as August will be
the last opportunity. If any one has

emplification of the idea that the office
should seek the man was given today
when Governor Morehesd appointed as
public defender for Douglas county Frank
Ransom OF Omaha Mr.. Ransom was not
an applicant for the office, but, on the
other hand, was seeking the appoin' ment
OF another man, Ralph W. West, young
attorney in his office.
However, Governor Morehead Is of the
opinion that the plan of good men holding
offices at small salaries Is one that
should be passed around and so he handed
tho attorney Of the South Omaha Stock
Yards association one.
what Governor says.
In explanation OF the appointment Gov
ernor Morehead said:
Mr.. Ransom should accept the place.
What right has he to refuse? This is a
new law and the best attorney is none
too good. As I see these unfortunate be-
ings in their cells, without friends. money
or even clothes, l feel that they should
have the best legal assistance that it Is
possible to give them. and know that
Mr.. Ransom has the qualification
Mr.. Ransom wss not a candidate, y
said the governor, and nobody endorsed
him. He has no more right to refuse to
serve than some of the rest of US who
are serving the public on little pay. He
took a very active part in gettins this
law passed and has taken an interest In
the candidacy OF a young man who de-
sired the appointment

do know Ransom and I believe he Is

citizen so that he will accept If 1t were

he should refuse, Just as I say any other
man who is able to give part of his time
