Registration.

1t is most desirable that every one in
the county qualified TO vote should as
sure themselves that their names are
upon the Registration books of the pro
per district and precinct. This year
the Registration is intermediate only,
that is to say, if your name is upon the
books of the district and precinct of the
county in which you now reside or will
reside at the time of registration, it will
not be necessary to do any thing except
appear at the polling place on election
day November y and vote for Wilson,
Marshall, Lewis and Ralston; but If
you have moved from one district to
another since last election, it will be
necessary to get transfer" to the
place where you now reside, you are
liable to have your name stricken Off
and not be allowed to vote. 1t is also
extremely importantthat, the attention
of those who have just acquired the
right of franchise to the fact that in
order to vote it lis necessary to first have
their names placed properly upon the
registration books on registration days.
Don't forget to Register on October
3 or October 10. October II is for re-
vision only.

Must Measure Oysters.

Corporation Counsel Syme has given
directions to the Inspector in charge of
inspection Of oysters that hereafter no
oysters shall be sold in the District of
Columbia without being actually mea-
sured. Complaint was recently
m &C lie to David J. Lewis, Mem
Der of Congress from the Sixth Mary
land District and candidate for United
States Senator, by the oyster captains
that they were required to buy oysters
under the Maryland laws by measure
and in the District of Columbia no mea-
sure was required in their sale. The
result was that many dealers in the
District of Columbia purchased oysters
by the barrel, under the theory that
they contained certain number of bu-
shells whereas they contained more.
Oyster captains were under the impress
sion that their troubles could be entire
ly remedied if the oyster men in the
District of Columbia were REQUIRED to
actually measure the oysters in selling
them.
Upon receipt of this complaint, Mr..
Lewis asked Mr.. Jackson H. Ralston,
Democratic Candidate for Congress in
the Fifth Congressional District to as
slst him in remedying the complaint of
the oyster men. Mr. Ralston and Mr..
Lewis went to the District Building,
there interviewed one of the Commiss-
toner's, then the Sealer of Weights and
Measures, then the Corporation Coun-
sci, and as result they found an old
statute requiring that all articles sold
by dry measure should be actually
measured and Corporation Counsel
Syme gave directions that this statute
be actually and literally enforced. The
Inspector proceeded Immediately to
| carry out directions. The result of this
will be that the Maryland oystermen.
who have heretofore purchased under
one measure and sold under another to
their decided disadvantage, will have
their troubles in this respect cured. 1t
IS estimated by them that they lost
about twelve barrels on every hundred
by the old system of measurement.
They say that they have made re-
peated efforts heretofore to have their
troubles remedied through other Con-
gressmen and this is the first time that
they have secured any relief, although,
they have been after it for sometime
past. Several of the captains have
called upon the two gentlemen named
and expressed their appreciation of
their efforts which are thus successful
ly terminated.

Seeding Crimson Glover

College Park, Md, Aug. 17-In
circular on Crimson Glover, Nicholas
Schmitz, of the Maryland Experiment
Station, advises seeding between the
middle of July and the middle of Sep
TENDER. He says, along the water
fronts in Southern Maryland and in the
southern part Of the Eastern Shore, it
may be safe to SOW as late as the mid
die of September or little later, but
by far the best results are obtained if
seeded a month or six weeks earlier.
In the northern part Of the Eastern
Shore and in the crimson clover sec
ton of Hawford, Baltimore, Howard
and Montgomery counties, it should
not be seeded later than September
1st, and preferably four or five weeks
earlier. N Carroll county and in al
most all the lower attitudes of Freder-
lex and Washington counties and in
the Mountain Section, it is seldom safe
TO SOW after August 18th, and it may
he seeded q $ early as July 18th.

In another column of this issue the
Port Commission is giving legal notice
OF hearing to be held as prelimin-
ary to the adoption of the plan. The
preparation of these plans does not
mean that the Port Commission con-
templates any extensive Improvement
at this time. In fact no improvements
costing in excess of the $4,000 which
has already been raised by taxation
can be made until the expenditure is
voted by the people. Before any i'm
provements can be made, however. it
is necessary that a comprehensive plan
be adopted. In other words the COM
mission is getting ready to carry out
the wishes of the people whenever
they say the community wants and
needs increased facilities for accom-
modation of river traffic.

EDUCATORS ARE
LUNCHEON GUESTS
DR.. Winship, and Mrs. Preston
Entertained by Local Organiza-
ti0ns-Lectures in Evening

DR.. A. E. Winship, of Boston, edi-
tor of the National Journal of Educa-
titon, and Mrs. Josephine Preston,
state superintendent of public instruc-
tion, were guests at luncheon given
Saturday noon at Hotel Kennewick
by the Commercial club, the Woman's
club and the Parent-Teachers' associa-
tion. Altho the coming of the edu-
Gators had not been widely advertised
ninety men and women attended the
luncheon. The large attendance and
the excellent service of the hotel elicit
ed the praise of the visitors.
DR.. Winship spoke briefly of the
conditions as he has observed them
in the Northwest, saying that its fu-
ture depended not upon the products
of its farms, its orchards or its fields,
but upon the men it produced. He said
that as yet the Northwest had produc-
ed no truly great men for the reason
that it had followed the policy of hit
ting every head that rose above the
crowd. He urged that the people learn
to recognize and appreciate ability and
capability in fellow man. "When
once man gets his head above the
rest, don't knock him down but boost
him up" he said. "When you get a
good man in public Office, keep him
there"
Mrs. Preston spoke of the progress
Washington was making along educa-
tional lines, calling attention to the
fact that this state stood first on three
counts in education among all the
states of the union.
At poorly attended evening meet
ing in the Congregational church DR..
Winship spoke on Getting into the
Game" and Mrs. Preston on "Thrift." /"
Musical selections were given by Miss
Rosella Hamilton, Miss Minnie Mum
dy and Mrs. John Brog.
