The registration books were closed
by County Clerk Clinton at 5 o'clock
yesterday afternoon, and thciee voters
who failed to register will be requir
ed to undergo the Inconvenience of be
ing "sworn In" on election, day. .The
total registration In the county this
fall will be about 2900, perhapsa few
more, of which 1074 have been regis
tered In the precincts outside the city.
The registration In the cfty la greater
than ever before, as Is the registra
tion In the county. Mr. Clinton could
not make public any statement yes
terday as to the registration, for the
reason that the corrections have not
yet been made; nor have registrations
sent In from outside precincts been
entered. Many voters have changed
their residence from one precinct to
another,, and these changes must be
reckoned In the final statement The
number of Voters who registered while
the books were open this fall was In
the neighborhood of 350. A city elec
tion Is to be held in. December and
city officials have wondered Just what
plan will be followed as regards regis
tration for the election. There are
only two councllmen and a city attor
ney to elect, and It Is thought the
trouble of Opening registration books
can be avoided by the enactment of
an ordinance authorising the auditor
to copy from the county lists the
names of all voters who have reg
istered in the city precincts this year.
