his staff.
The formal contract was ordered to
be drawn and will probably BE- eXecut'
ed within q week or ten days.
The success of the Nashville bid
ders, which has been practically q
certainty for several days, came after
several weeks of arduous labor on the
part of the Nashville committee and
it, technical experts, who have he'd &c
60 over every line Of a26-page type
written proposal with the war depart
ment experts and convince the gov.

from the governments standpoint.
Arrangements have already been
made to operate certain portions Of
the chemical units, and it IL expected
that within 80 days parts Of The va

MAKE READY TO CAST VOTE

ONLY FIFTY-TWO MEN REGISTER
Believed That Fully $50 Will Have
Been Registered in Ninth District
Before Books Are Finally Closed
After Three Days.
(From Fridays Daily Herald.)

(fToln frluay DAILY hefalu.)
An even hundred voters were regis
tered on the first day of the general
registration for the ninth district
held at the court house Thursday
OF this number forty.nine were WON
en-, and 1ifty,one men. therefore male
voters were only two in the majori
ty in the number registered.
OF the forty-nine women register
ed every single one were white. Not
a negro woman had registered up un
til o'clock this morning, but it was
expected that several would register
before the books are closed Satur
day.
There, has been considerable con
fusion regarding the time of registra
ton. II was acknowledgements b.
the eldctionI commissioners that tbs
three day general registration would
be held ON MONDAY, Tuesday and
Wednesday, October II, ~ and 10, bat
Esquire Guest, who is holding the reg
isiration, stated he was convinced
that it would be an impossibility
to hold the registration on thesf
three days and comply with the law
which provides that the books must
be open for three days and Gloss
twenty days before the election. Had
the registration been held October il
II and Is the books would have been
closed but nineteen days before the
election is the position taken by Es
quire Guest.
While that matter Is but technl'
ca,ity, it has been the cause Of cor.
siderable. confusion and registrars
this morning did not know what would
he the result of the changed dates.
Registrars this morning We're con.
fident that at least $50 voters will
have been registered before the books
are closed Saturday -
Suffrage leaders of Columbia are
making a concerted effort to get out
the newly enfranchises women of
the district, and il they are success
full il is likely that the number of
women registered will nearly equal
that of the male voters, as women
had not registered under the state
law which granted the right Of The
ballot to woman in presidential and
