pressed it as his view that it would

posted in separate ballot boxes and
the voter may ut one time vote one

Who Can Vote on Bonds

Secondly, Mr.. Clancy was asked his
views as to the meaning of quail
fled electors ais used in the consti-
tutional provision above referred to.
tfe expressed it tc be his opinion that
this term means male citizens who
have been duly registered. The re-
quirement Of registration according 10
the attorney general. is absolute.
The third question was as to who
would come within the description
paid a property tax therein during
the preceding year" Undoubtedly,
according TO Mr. Clancy, property
tax would mean either Il tax on either
realty or personally, and the most
difficult constituting would be in re-
gard to the word paid" which must
not be Interpreted too literally. Ger
tainly a man who paid q tax for an
other as agent merely could not come
within the designation, but where he
has paid the tax on community prop
erty, even If that property stand IN
the name of the wife and the tax re-
ceipt he taken In her name, or on
partnership property. even II that tax
lie paid on behalf Of the firm, then
the taxpayer has sufficiently paid
10 come within the legal requirement.
As to the words preceding year" it
was Mr. Clancys view that they
meant the year actually prior in time
to the election date. and not the cal
cndar or fiscal wear. In that light.
the payment of the tax might fall any
time from April 4, 1915 TO the com
ing election day. a man who had
last paid prior to April of last year
would not be eligible, and on the 9TH
or hand one paying Just prior to cleo
ton time would be qualified

Welcome to Norwich, the Rose of 1 New England and the Best Trading 1 Center in Eastern Connecticut, will be on the tongue of every merchant on l Dollar Day, Wednesday. August 23. | Norwich has had several Dollar Days | in the past year or so and they have | been so successful in demonstrating to | the public of eastern Connecticut that 1 Norwich Is the only and the best place 1 for them to trade that the local mer- chants have again bound themselves 1 together in another bargain giving day.
 The claims of Norwich to be con sidered the logical trading center for l this district are numerous and con- vincing. It is the largest city east of the Connecticut river. It is easily ac- cessible by trolley and steam cars to every section of eastern Connecticut and western Rhode Island. It has live merchants in every line of busi ness, with large and various stocks of reliable merchandise, which is all ways sold at fair prices. Norwich has no real competitor as a market place for all the territory which it seeks to serve.
 From the Suburban Standpoint.
 From the standpoint of the country dweller, Norwich offers many oppor- tunities to trade economically and sat isfactOrily.
 
 the city by the steam roads and troll leys which tap the entire surrounding country is unequaled. The stations of the two steam rOadS-the Central Vermont and the New Haven-are cen trally located and you may step from the trolley almost at the door of any of the stores where you intend to pur- chase.
 Norwich, the metropolis of Eastern Connecticut offers unsurpassed facili- ties to the out town shopper. Sit uated in the midst of a large number of bustling towns and villages, it has grown to be an attractive trade cen ter. Most cities with twice the pOpu- Iation of Norwich, do not appear so businesslike. People from twenty miles around congregate here, espec- ialIy on Saturday evenings, when the business district is crowded with shop pers, to say nothing of the numerous sightseers.
 Save Carfare by Shopping Here.
 Many people from the surrounding towns save their carfare by doing the bulk of their shopping in Norwich. The numerous department stores are well stocked with the best product that the manufacturers can prOduce-Offer- ing the buyer anything from a pin to an automobile.
 4 very noticeable thing Is that the proprietOrs of these stores are always courteous and appear to work under the slogan: Money refunded for any unsatisfactory purchase" The clerks and other employees of Norwich's stores are polite, ObGging and ever willing to assist customers in their selection of goods.

Hand and Amputaton Found
Necessary

Virgil s. Connell. well known
sheep man of Antelope Valley, met
with a serious accident Wednesday
afternoon when two sticks OF dyna-
mite, which he was carrying exploded,
shatterng the hand SO badly that
amputation was necessary.
The accident occurred about a mile
and half from his sheep camp near
Hcye's BriGge, this side of Wellington.
Mr.. connell some years ago invented
devise for soaring coyotes f, ON his
sheep by using clock arrangement
timed to explode dynamite every hour.
He was on his way to the trap to load
1t when In some manner the dynamite
exploded. He Immediately tied his
handkerchief around his wrist to stop
the flow of blood and started for his
camp. on foot a distance of mile and
half. Arriving there he had one
of the herders tie rope about the
wrist and then sent him to Wellington

TO ENLARGE
POWER PLANT

Definite arrangements have been
made for the enlargement of the
power plant of the Douglas Milling &
Power company on the Carson river.
The present plant of the company will
be superseded by a modern plant
to be openrated by Pelton wheel.
BY extending the ditch around the
hill above the Sarman home, much
greater fall will be obtained, which
through the installation of the new
wheel, will give the company about
three times the power now generated
at the present plant.
For many months past the local
power company has been carrying an
overload to supply the demand for
Juice and have been unable to accept
new business that has been offered.
II Is understood that the machinery
for the new plant has already been
ordered and that work has started on
the preliminary work at the plant.

Want MAIL
ROUTE KILLED

The Record-Courier is reliably in
formed that movement has been
started to change the mail route now
existing between Gardnerville, Cole
vile and Hudson the latter point,
thus cutting OF all direct mail COM
munications between the two points.
1t is also stated that parties are fig
uring ON putting on truck line be-
tween Hudson and Antelope Valley
and other Mono county points with
the view OF transferring all freighting
over the Copper Belt road instead OF
over the Virginia and Truckee road
to Minden.
If this scheme is carried through
it will be the mot serious blow that
could possibly happen to the business
interests of Carson Valley. If this
business is to be retained; II the mail
route to Coleville is to be discon-
timed, simply because we are not
alive and active to the situation, we
deserve to lose our commercial re-
lationship with the rich section to
our south. If we intend to keep 1t,
however, now is the time to get into
action and show our southern neigh
bors that we are earnest and sincere
in our endeavors to hold their trade.
