The Necessity of Registration


Voters should head the call of both parties to
register. se
The first registration period will be here in a
few days. Confusion and trouble will be avoided
if voters avail themselves of the first opportun-
ity to enroll their names as persons entitled to
vote at the fall election.
One salient point must be kept in mind-if
you do not register you cannot vote.
Why wait for the next registration period ?
Be sure to register next month and you need not
worry on election day. You will know that your
name is on the list and that you cannot be chal-
lenged on that point.
We are all prone to postpone and delay en-
rolling our names. Let's overcome this sloth and
enroll early.
Registration is essential to participation in
the election this fall. The law is specific and
permits of no evasion. If you believe that you

capitalists who invested considerable
sum of money in property that has been
giving good showings. These men will
be associated with him and his partner
in the building of a new mill in the near
future and also the constructing of a
compressor plant. These developments
mean emp oyment of large force of
men and will add to the move which is
bringing mining back on the map.
Mr.. Jaynes' chief interest has been
in developing the Bruce mine on Chica-
go Creek. and it is there that the new
improvements will he constructed.
This has been paying hole for num-
ber of years and the company who
leased the dump hauled 400 tons Of the
dirt to the mill making good profit.

Clerk and Recorder

The office of county clerk re-
auires a man who is accurate, eff
cient, ready to please the public
and accommodating to the people
he represents. The present county
clerk and Republican candidate
for another term, B. A. Holley, is
just that type Of man. Due to his
experience, character and qualih-
cations, he is that type OF man.
Mr.. Holley has been very eff
cient in his administration OF the
county's affairs during his tenure
of office. He has conscientiously
endeavored to do his very best in
office, and as result the people
of the county appreciate his eff
forts. He is a pleasant man to
meet, business man of ability and
in every way fitted to serve the
public.
A military record is back of the
present candidate, as he served in
the Philippines with Gen. Fred

finest type and his industrious ap-

sentative for this coming term. Charles
l.. Jaynes, resident of Clear Creek
county for more than forty-two years.
AMI Republican candidate. will fill the
position in a creditable manner. He has
been mining promoter and knows the
mining business in detail. Mining is
the chief interest Of these co-nties in
the mountains and his business has been
that Of mining, thus qualifying him
to represent the people whose interests
are similar to his own.
Mr.. Jaynes has lived in Idaho Springs
for the last fifteen year and is man
of character and good principles His
acquaintance extends over all of Clear
Creek and is well konwn as an honorable
business man in his dealings.

more mining transactions than any other
candidate for office has to his credit
These changes have brought large
amount of capital to Clear Creek county

friendly reflection of actual conditions Says Mir Wheeler direct to Washing ton correspondents: "The law enforce ment situation is complicated and un- satisfactory in several states. The req sons are apparent. Nine states have no enforcement code. Ohio, Califor- mia, Wisconsin and Missouri must await referendums before their enforcement codes can be effective. This results from legislative action by the vets" The federal force is inadequate in these thirteen states to enforce the law.
 Some of the federal agents are not doing their best-most of them are. A limited number have been corrupted by liquor dealers"
 MT. Wheeler then complains of judges and prosecuting attorneys He says. "A few United States district
 judges have encouraged .bootleggers by imposing small fines and display ing antagonism to law in the conduct of cases. Several district attorneys have required evidence of a character before they will act. That precludes effective enforcement. We must re- member also that we are in the midst of a political campaign. II is always harder to enforce liquor laws at sucf times. The reason is apparent. Prohibition enforcement was frs handicapped by attacks against tn,
