Jefferson Ave. and Depot St Am A ma Hereafter notaries and justices of the peace throughout the county will send-in their lists of voters who have registered before them to the county clerk at least once a week. The statutes relating to elections in the state of Oregon are plain upon this point and County Clerk Gilham has sent a personal request to the 28 men in the county who are registering voters that they comply with that pro vision.' This will expedite the work In the clerk's office and will enable, Mr. Qiiham and his deputies to keep up with their work. In the statutes on page 1 1 and 1 2 it says: "Every elector may be registered by personally appearing at the clerk's office but if said elector is unable for any reason to conveniently register as aforesaid, he may register, without charge before a notary public or justice of the peace signing blank 'A three times which shall be certified to by the notary or justice and "forthwith filed with the county clerk.' Some trouble has been experienced so far in getting the notaries and justices to be prompt in forwarding the blanks after they have been signed as it has been their evident desire to hold them until they se cure a good number. Since their atten tion has been called to the matter, how ever, they will send the registration into La Qrande at least once a week and the trouble will be abated. Registration for the primaries will close April 4 at 6 o'clock in the afternoon at which time also all nominating petitions must have been filed. The . registration book were opened January 2, and more than half the time has now expired with about half the voters of the county yet to file their names. f OR STATE PRIMER - It is now generally conceded that J, R. Whitney, the present state printer, is far in the lead in the candidacy for renomina tiontothat office. Mr. Whitney's best endorsement is his record in the office during his first term. The Gazette hopes that Morrow county will be in line with the other counties in giving . Mr. Whitney a majority. Owing to the established rule he is en titled to another term. His record in the office is such a strong endorsement that the people do hot desire a change at the next election." He Vill get a big vote in Eastern Oregon and with .his undoubted strength In Western Oregon, he will un doubtedly be renominated by the Repub licans by a big majority. Heppner Gazette. .- f AD HI AT Mill S. N.
