 COMING ELECTION

The total number registered in the state to vote up to Aug. 24th, since the great register opened on May 1, is 70,616 according to statement issued yesterday by Ernest R. Hall, secretary of state, as compared to a total of 62,S2S for the same period two years ago. The total registra- tion for the primaries two years ago was 79,192, MT. Hall said.
 The records of the registration of two years ago shows, MT. Hall said. that during the last two weeks of registration before the primary cleo tion, the registration was very heavy, the total number registered for each of the two weeks being almost double the numbered registered for any one week prior thereto. If the same in- crease in registration is shown dur ing the last two weeks this year. MT. Hall said tkc total number ] egistered for the primary will approach close to the total registration for the gen eral election two years ago which was 90,272.
 During the past ten days Recorder L. N. Callicotte has been busily en- gagged in completing the registration records for this county which must be in the hands of the several cleo ton boards on the morning of Pri- mary Day, September 12. At the close of office hours on the last day of registration GFrfday) registration blanks received up to that hour showed a total of 175S registered voters in this county. Of this num- Der approximately 150 are registered as Independent and Republicans leaving 1900 possible democratic votes to be cast in the Democratic primary.
 This figure may be increased some, when the final registration papers from the several precincts have been received by the County Recorder, but in all probability there will not be more than 145O democratic primary ballots no election day.
 Up to date AT residents of Greenlee county, who will be absent on pri- mary day. have taken advantage of the absent voter provision, and have made application to County Record CT Callicottee and been provided with an absent voter ballot.

AMERICAN ARISTOCRACY.

A bit amusing and bit Of won
der too. in this day and generation,
IA the utterance Of "select circles ,
FIRST people," and "aristocracy" and
the rest Of the Old World nonsence
in this country Of ours where actu-
ally there should not be any well
defined society at all, and where we
people are generally mixed together
like component parts Of certain
stew which one eats with the know
ledge that there's no telling what
sort Of mouthful will come next.
The stew is the more savory for
the mixture, and SO is society. 1t is
saved from an utter dead-level Of
stupidity because Of the fact that
one meets in the same parlor all
sorts of people. Some of whom are
ain society" because their ancestor
never did anything, and because they
themselves never would do anything
if they could, and couldn't II they
would. Others have ridden into SO
ciety on the backs Of their grand
fathers deeds. And then, there are
those "in society" who do things
themselves. They paint, lecture,
write, preach. publish. discover the
North Pole Tor make the attempt,
anyway. Then there's the people
whose grand-fathers made clean
money with actually dirty hands, and
who having the money left to them,
forget the grand father and by some
far fetched and mysterious process,
have become scions Of "aristocracy,'
droop their eyelids, shrug their
shoulders and talk Of persons I'VE
don't know.
Now, just what do we know of
aristocracy in this land of ours des-
titute of queens and titled nobility
In the name Of all that is honest
let's not make any pretensc or talk
Of first families" for aristocracy is
the miserable -nosed ghost of
kingdoms.

A halo on thy face like some dear

When to his love, the hooking bird

I see thy agony, when love is slain,
Quick, falling. like crush'd flower at

With piteous cries, calling thy sweet

Within whose arms. another now

Beneath the oak majestic DER thy
