 Democrats COnslstent Voters "The democrats always vote whether they're in ofiico or out of ofiice," declared Judge McGrath. "There is too great Q tendency on the republicans Co stay away from tho polls when they're In office. That ie what happened in NpugA tuck and New RritNln. Whom they're out of office the republl- cans don't work ns hard to get In Ns the democrats do. We must start our campaign right now ana put tho republican party back tn power We must bring home to tho people Special attention, too. should be siven to the young mems vote. "tn my opinion we must even. tuuliy come to tho New York sys- tenn of registering voters. It would do away with nll criticism and would clean up tho voting list nnd rightly so for there are many on tho list who never vote. In New York if you don't vote one year you're crossed of the list and you
 have to re.registor tho following year."
