VIII Change Conditions.
For Widows of Soldiers.

The Ashbrook BILL so called because
II was introduced and pushed by Con-
gresham Ashbrook of Ohio, is expect
ed TO pass the senate, having already
gone through the house. This bin will
give the widows of soldiers who were
wives during the service of the soldier
$50 per month and the same amount
TO widows OF seventy years. 1t will
also give a pensionable status TO wild
ows who married the soldiers before
June 81, 1906, and also restores wild
ows of soldiers who have remarked.

Money Versus Livea.

Every little while there is an intima-
tion that the government has been
too easy with Great Britain and that
the allies ought to respect the rights of
American commerce. but as long as 1t
is only commerce and not lives that
are lost there will not be any great
complaint There is not much sympa-
thy for the fellow who loses his
money. but there is for those who lose
their lives.

REGISTRATION IN
 GREENLEE COUNTY
500 Registered Voters Up To Date Registration Figures of This Dis- trict.

County Recorder Rodney Ellis es- inmates that the registration for Greenlee county will exceed 3,200 names. In 1914 the total registration was $500.
 Under the law the time allowed for this accomplishment is about five months. A little further figuring will produce the further facts that an average of $50 names in duplicate for each of these five months must be obtained by the county recorder, who is entrusted with this important func- tion under the law, in order to get all these names in the office. A glance at the task ahead when the name is presented for registration will dumb found most people. For each registra- ton blank issued, the description of the vote nIJiat te 1bt med and the affids@ S., t0 the tr,.sk-S,' ti.a ct;.se- ments thereon taken. One of these blanks is given to the voter and one sent to the recorders office. What is done before the receiption of the blank at the recorders office is noth- ing compared to what has to be done afterwards. Two registers must be made up, each containing copy of the signature of the voter. One of these names is pasted into the great register of the county and the other into the precinct register. But this is not all Along side of each name pasted in these registers, and they must correspond to the merest detail, is the number of the voter, his age, description of any deformities, and the political party to which he is affiliated Imagine all this work. Three thous- and names to be pasted and fifteen hundred descriptions, etc. to be cop- jed twice. The object of all this is to protect the ballot and the system of voting. The blanks are not destroyed, but are kept mum bel ed and filed and stored away in the vault of the re- corder's office as part of the records.
 When the registration closes on September 2, the precinct registers are made up and sent to the various precincts to be used for the primary election on September 18th. They are then returned and the re- gistration is again opened and the books kept up to date with the names, etc., of the voters who register after that time until October 18th when the books are finally closed for this year. The books are then prepared for the general election on November 7th.
 A force of extra help is always en- ployed during the registration period and a force of extra deputies are ap- pointed for registration duty around the county.
 Up to the present time there has been total of 300 registered.

FIRE DESTROYS KAR|bO HOME
North Clifton Home Destroyed In Short Time. But Very Little of the Contents Saved.

The home of Charles Karibo in Nc rth Clifton was aln osu totaIly destroyed by fire Wednesday after noon, but few of the personal belong ings being saved. The alarm was turned in about three o'clock and before the Clifton fire boys had reached the scene the house was in a mass of flames and a strong wind whipped the blaze in every direction. At the beginning it looked as though all the houses in the immediate neighborhood were doomed to the same fate but after the arrival of the fire department, combined with ex- cellent water pressure, three streams of water were turned upon the build ing and the flames were subdued.
 The house was completely gutted and only the walls were left standing, and on account of the strong wind at the time it is miracle that the whole structure was not completely destroyed. 1t is not known how the fire originated but is thought to have been caused by an over heated stove. None of the contents of the house was saved except e piano although a good ly amount of clothing and personal effects were rescued, among which WdS O Ol JSWO1S
 The house was owned by Mrs. Ar chic Morrison and it is understood that no insurance was carried on the building.
 The flames had scarcely been sub dued when q second alarm was turned in and this time a dwelling directly in front of the Karibo home was dis covered to be on fire on the roof. This was shortly put out and the ex- citement in that end of town was abated.
 Too much caution cannot be taken at this time of the year to guard against fires, as the dry condition of the buildings and the high winds might easily result in most dis astrous conf1agration.
 As chief executive of the town Mayor Fraser, in behalf of the citi- zens, wishes to commend the Clifton Fire boys and the Clifton Water con- pany upon the adequate fire protec- tion recently given them. The water service, in the case of the two big fires in the past week, has been ex- cellent and the pressure has been all that could be asked for and the citi- zens now feel more secure from the ravages of fires than heretofore.
