The question of getting all the legal
voters in the county, who have not

dates considerable activity, and they
are beginning TO exert themselves to
see that the work is thoroughly ac-
complished before the filing date closes
July 23.
Every precinct in Garter county has
number Of legal voters who have
become so since the last general cleo
ton, some by moving into the pre-
cinct, some by becoming Of voting
age, and some by the 18th amendment
10 the federal constitution which in
vests women with the right Of the
ballot.
All these will be given opportunity
to register beginning July 18th, and
continuing for 10 days, by precinct
registrars who have been or will be,
appointed in every precinct Of the
county by county registrar r. E.
Grisham.
A complete overhauling Of election
officials was made yesterday by Mr..
Grishan, and preparations are now
'uadsr way to begin the work prompt
ly on the morning of the 18th of
July, and work every district faithfully
in order that none be overlooked.
