REGISTRATIONuGHT'
FOR CITY ELECTION
Board Closed Books Last Might at
Six O'clock With Only 500
Names Listed.
ONLY IS MORE THAN IN 1916.
City Election Approaches With Little
Interest Shown. AIhuquerque's
Commission Experience.

Registrations for the coming city
election totaled 500 when the board
closed its ten days sitting at siX
O'Clock last night. This is only 10
more than registered two years agp.
The unexpectedly light registration l.
probably accounted for in - large
part by the fact that mosl Of the
recent influx of people into the city
is from outside the ,aie's boundae-
les, and therefore barred from tax
ing part in any election by The -
months residence law. Another rea-
son therefor is that there has been
little stirring up of the animals'
thus far and public interest accord
ingiy is at low ebb. No nominations
have been made ms yet for any Of the
city offices. Mayor NOrdhaus has
repeatedly stated that he will moi
make the race again for mayor, but
his record has been such that he will
have much pressure TO resist to avoid
being forced into the office agan"
Thie situation will not be affected IN
any perceptible way by the vote Tor
or against the commission form og
government, for under either plan d
MAYOR has TO be elected Under tlie
present system he has four council
men and under commission govern
mcnt he would have two fellow com
missiOners.
The issue of the commission gov
cmmeni proposition will be decided
by what the voters learn of that
' plan between now and April 2d the
