which might have already done much work during the day, and, finally, he found. if he took thought of the mat ter. that, so far as he was concerned, dimes and nickels had answered his purpose through the day, for most of his purchases had been made with one or the other of these coins.
 This has changed now, the nickel and the time have become weak and are upable to do their work without the aid of one or two copper coins. The trolley conductor asks for cents. The package of cheap smoking tobac- co costs cents, as does the smallest plug of chewing tobacco, while the larger cut as well as the better grades Of smoking tobacco call for a dime and two copperS. Only the beer is sold for cents, for in this instance the sellers have cut the glasses to the lifting ca pacity of the nickel which with the dime is becoming obsolete, unequal to the burden placed upon it. Clearly there appears a need for one or more coins: especially is there need for a Scent piece which it should not be inn possible to meet As for a 12-cent coin there exists the need, but to fill it might involve difficulties.
 The 6-cent coin is by no means inn possible. though obviously it could not be made of nickel inasmuch as it would be too nearly the size of the present 5-cent coin which has lost something of it's purchasing capacity but nothing stands in the way of mak- ing a 6-cent coin of silver To the objection that the coin would be small it may be said that Canada uses 8 silver 5-cent coin and survives tho strain in fine shape. FurtheE while the Canadian tradesman accepts United States currency gladly as rule they object to the United States 5-cen' piece because they think it too large just as they regard the United State: cent as too small because it is only half the size of their own.
 The 5-cent silver coins once issued by the United States have gone th' way of all the earth and new coiI worth a cent more would not cause confusion now.
 When the parcel post system wa: put in operation the postoffice depart
 ment sensibly enough added and 8
 cent tamps for the benefit of the ship pers and no protests were heard. Tn treasury department might do wors
 than to add a 6-cent coin unless it ha decided to wait for the time whel nothing worth having can be purchase | for less than 9 cents.

With an estimated voting popula- ton of about 1000, the registration books at the close of business last evening indicated that aboutsS, 500 citi- zens had availed themselves of the opportunity to qualify to vote at the approaching municipal primaries and general election. This means that up to the present time not much more than fifty per cent of those who would otherwise be qualified to vote had not gone through the formality of reg istering
 By some this is taken as proof of the charge that the city commission has failed to provide adequate registra- tion facilities. However, it pointed out that probably in no other election period has there really been better registration facilities. For several weeks the office of the city clerk has been open each day. including the noon hour, and eAch evening until nine o'clock. There has been at all times one or more registrars on duty. More recently three have been in constant attendance. At the two fire houses one at Ninth and Van Buren streets, the other at Five Points, and at the ! Carnegie Free Public library building here have been registrars for ten days )r more. The hooks have been open each day and each evening at these places. Unusual publicity has been given to the fact that these addition al registration places have been opened That there has not been heavier reg istration, it is said, is due more to apathy on the part of those who might have registered than to any lack of facilities.
 There is but one day more in which registration may be made. The books will close tomorrow evening and will remain closed until after the primaries on March l. Immediately thereafter the books will be re-opened for SUD- plemental registration and will remain open until 10 days before the general election.
 There are two candidates for the office of mayor. Peter Corpstein is a candidate to succeed himself, while his sole opponent is Commissioner Frank Woods who aspires to the higher of flee and who is pursuing an energetic campaign.
 For the two vacancies in the city commission there are five candidates They are Charles w. Barnett. Fred Powell, W. s. Norveil, John D. Mills and J. A. l.. Irvine.
