A few local astute politicians and financiers of the poppy complexion, are predicting a great reverse in county af iatra this year. One or two have been beard to say that this county will owe $10,000 more on the first of January, 1901, than it owed on January 1st, 1900. Well, we'll nee. The surprise is that even a feeble acknowledgment of the fact that the county paid over 140,000 of the public debt last year, and to hear the wail of despair going up in advance is a little amusing. But then, poppy don't seem to know how to do much else than to predict, and their predic tions always come true, as a matter of fact, of course, to be sure, yes ; and the recent attempt to do injury to the county's interest by thrusting it iu the back upon the least pretext or reason, real or imaginary, will prove about as correct as our experience prompts us to credit them with. Unless some unfore seen misfortune befalls the county there will be no greater outstanding debt one year hence than there is at present. Of course jealousy and hatred will certainly exhibit itself, and these "mark my predittionisu" are no excep tion to the rule. There is but one chance for the county to run behind this year, and that is an excessive dis bursement for bridge repair and road improvement, which, very likely, will be no greater than was that expense in the year just ended. To meet these expenses, the board will very wisely levy a tax for road purposes, which not only will be sufficient to defray the expense of necessary bridge improve ment, but will leave a neat sum with which to make other improve ments. The likelihood of being as suc cessful in the collection of current taxes as was the case last year is no less dis couraging than was the case In previous years, in fact, the conditions would war rant the presumption that taxes will be as readily paid this year as heretofore, and land redemptions will be a promi nent factor again in reducing the debt. The expense of the county last year was about 17,000, and it certainly can be no greater in 1900. The state tax may be more, and the salaries of the road supervisors may be greater, as will, of course, election expenses, on account of two elections, but taken all in all, we fail to be able to figure out in our own mind just why the county should go in debt during this year, unless circum stances will come up over which the board will have no control, or else sheer neglect, disregard and indolence on the part of those managing our- affairs, and this cannot be. The gentlemen who guide the county's destinies are too hon orable, too greatly interested and too business-like in their methods to be guilty of such neglect. The wail of the calamity shrieker, of course, has to be beard, but the utterances have no meaning, no foundation in fact, and the discordant wail starts from nothing ness and ends in a vacuum. Columbia county is all right, thank you, however much you dislike to acknowledge the fact. The Mist has again been designated the official paper for Columbia county. The court made the designation last Monday. For the next year, the same as has been done the past year, the pro ceedings of the county court will be printed free of charge. We have used our best endeavors and knowledge to make Tun Misr a paper which would warrant the patronage of the people of this county. Our aim has been to make the paper a disseminator of purely local affairs. We strive to have its col umns contain all information regarding county matters, and for that reason the paper is in demand. Our list of sub scribers has enjoyed a phenomenal in crease during the year, and we feel amply recompensed for our efforts to make Tub Mist a reliable chronicler of all matters of a local nature in which the people feel an interest. Nor will our efforts cease because that distinction has been achieved. Quite the reverse ; our efforts have been stimulated, and we will certainly strive to improve the paper each succeeding week. We take this means and this occasion to thank nil our friends and patrons for their efforts and interest in our welfare and success. We, no doubt, make mistakes in our expressions of opinion, but they are not intentional. Humanity is not yet infallible, and certainly we are no exception. The year 1900 promises to be a lively business year, and it is our hope that every resident of our county, friend or foe, shall be extremely pros- J ,t..in. ti,at time. When the final summing up lakes place one year hence, we hope Tils Mist will hare as good a showing to make as it was able to exhibit at the end of the year 1H. Tint advances in wbrcs which have been taking pl;ice all over the country in the past few months, particularly in November and lVceinlier, made the hol iday seat-on especially joyous for the United States this time. Not since 1S79. when the republican act which brought all the country's currency up to the go'd level went into operation, has there been so many advances of wages In any one year as took place iu 1SW. Now, as then, too, the republican party brought this good fortune to the country. A CAMIlll NKMOCKAT. The opinion of a democratic member of congress on democratic party pros pects, as published in recent dispatches, must of necessity bo the honest opinion of all intelligent, observant and candid members' of that party, though it is not necessary for them to proclaim their opinion from the house tops. This con gressman is reported as saying : "The democrats are hoiHslessly beaten in the next campaign. 1 am Bryan man, free-silver man. and an anti-expansist. I believe the democratic party is right on all these uncstions; yet it is a nope less minority on each of them. Hie country is for expansion. Ou the free silver question the very arguments we made iu lSlXi are now turned directly against us. The great prosperity the country has had is due, we believe, to the increase of basic money, yet the arcument believed is that prosperity has come with the gold standard. We have also had prosperity under the new tariff, which we opposed. We are on the unpopular side ou every question of the day, ana cannot cnange ine uue oi events that is setting against us. Aduiitliuff that this man and the deru ocratic party are abstractedly right, yet the (act that the popular will is the other wav is manifest to every man whose judgment is not eclipsed" by his oreiudices or desires. Multitudes of voters who have little respect fur Mr. MoKinley, and no abiding confidence in the republican party, will vote aeainst the democratic candidate, be cause they are in favor of expansion, are tired of the free-silver propaganda, and think that with all its faults the eovernment is in safer hands than it would bo if a change were made. Rinht or wrong, no party can beat auother that is allied with and represents pres ent prosperity and progress. Local Teachers' Institute.

Antls Responsibility. While the anti-expansionists are grow ing red in the face in their efforts to impress the country that General Law ton was worth more than the whole island of Luzon, they are closing their eyes to the fact that the responsibility lor Ins death comes pretty close home to them, for if they had not comforted the enemy with false hopes, the Filipino insurrection would have died long ago. San Francisco Chronicle. It has been demonstrated repeatedly in every state in the Union and in many foreign countries that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is a certain preventive and cure for croup. It has liecome the universal remedy tor that disease. 31. V. Fisher of Liberty, W. Va., only re peats what has been said around the globe when he writes: "I have used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in my family for several years and always with perfect success. We believe that it is not only the best cough remedy, but that it is a sure cure for croup. It has saved the lives of our children a num ber of titneB." This remedy is for sale by Dr. Edwin Ross. VOTERS MUST BE REGISTERED Complete Resume of the Reg istration Law. Strict Compliance with Previa torn, of the Act will tin ltcqulrctl. .F.verv elector in the state must regis ter between the first Monday in January, ItW, and 5 oclock P. M. Slay 16 follow ing. Such was the law passed by the last legislature. A voter may register with a notary public, justice of the peace, or county clerk. F. lectors are notsnli ject to expense iu the matter. A book containing the registration of all voters in the countv will I prepared and from this general book smaller ones wili he made giving the list of electors in each voting precinct. Electors will lie immlwred, consecu tively, in each precinct, as they are entered in the general county register. The clerk shall require ol the elector such information at his registration number, day of registering, full name of elector; business or occupation ; age of the elector iu years ; country of uativily ; if naturalized," the time, place and court of naturalization or declaration as evi denced by the legal proof exhibited by the elector. The actual aud precise place of resi dence of the elector at the time of his registering will be asked, and the pre cinct, and, if in the country, the town ship, section aud range; iu cities and towns having streets, by specifying the name of town or city, the street or other location of the dwelling-place, with the number of the dwelling, if it has a number, and if it has not, theu such a description of the place that it can be readily ascertained and identified. If the elector be not the head of the house it must be stated, and upon what floor thereof and what room the elector oc cupies iu the house. It must also bo stated whether the voter is able to write his name or mark his ballot. If the elector's inability is appareut in consequence of some physi cal infirmity, such as blindness or loss of a limb, incapacitating the applicant from writing, this fact must be set down in the register. Should the disability lie illiteracy of the voter, the clerk shall, in addition to statiug the fuel, enter as full a description of the physical pe culiarities of the elector as possible, giving height, approximate weight, com plexion, color of eyes and any visible marks or scars and their location. The law is very explicit and enters into smallest details; until after a per son has gone through the process of registering he will think he is under suspicion for mauler. Should au elector change his resi dence after registering, he may, before the books are closed, cause his former resignation to be- cancelled, by a request in writing to the clerk where he regis tered, on a specially prepared blank. Section 12 of the law says: "No person shall register w ho is not a qualified elector in the predinct in w hich he reg isters, and who is not a resident thereof, or register in a name rather than his true name, and nn elector shall register a second time iu the same precinct or register in any other precinct until his first registration has been cancelled." Upon the day of election the judges, as soon as an elector applying to vote has given his name and residence, shall ask the elector if he is registered, and must also examine the register. Even though a person may be registered his vote may be challenged before his ballot is actually in the box. If not registered the elector is to lie ronridered chal lenged. In case of a challenge the voter may subscribe an oath on a blank pro vided for that purpose, and this aiso must be sworn to by not more than half a dozen freeholders. In trying such cases the election judges have power to issue subpoenas to require the attendance ol witnesses ueiore tnem. i:e last auction of tile law gives the following warning: "Any county clerk or clerk of any county court, or any deputy of either of such officers, or any judge or clerk of election, or any mstice ot tiie peace or notary public, who shall willfully disre gard any ot the provisions oi tins act, or who shall willfully fail to perform any provisions of this act, or any person w ho shall willfully or fraudulently register more than once, or register under any but his true name, or attempt to vote by personating another who is registered, contrary to the provisions of this act, or knowingly register in any precinct where he is not a resident at tne time of registration, upon conviction shall be punished by imprisonment iu the peni tentiary not less than one year, nor more than three years, or by a line not less then $100 nor more than 2u00, or both such fine and imprisonment. Any person who shall falsely swear to any affidavit required by this act shall be deemed guilty of perjury, and upon conviction thereof shall be punished ac cordingly." For those who for any reason cannot go to the countv clerk lor registration. the law enables them to settle the mat ter with a notary public or justice of the peace, special blanks being provided for the purpose. These officials do not col lect any fee from the elector, but receive 10 cents for every blank filed with the county clerk. At a meeting of the Houlton republi can eiuu Iieiu EL lew cvou.ivn Biubo.
