Voters Registration
Steps Up In Glacier

There is no better evidence of
the progress of Glacier county
than the increase shown by the
books of J. Lee Anderson, coun-
ty clerk and recorder. in the reg
istration of voters for the pri-
MARI election. 1t is doubtful if
any county in the state shows
such a percentage increase in
registration as does Glacier in
the period between the primary
election of 1888 and the one for
the registration list just closed.
While the development of the
oil industry in this county during
the past two years might lead
one to expect that the Cut Bank
area would show a marked in
crease. it is notable that the dis
tribution of the registration de-
notes a healthy growth in the
northern and western portions of
the county as we'll as in the oil
field. The county clerks figures
are as follows:
