REGISTRATION FIRST.
Every republican iii the city of As
toria owe a solemn obligation to hi
citixen-diip and his party to go to the
office of the city auditor on Monday
morning next at 9 o'clock and register
for the coming direct primaries, and
supplement this duty, with the correla
tive one of re-registering on November
16th., for the city election itself. Of
course it entails a measure of trouble
but it is the law and republicans are
law-abiding; and besides, if the domi
nant party in thU city is to administer
it rightful heritage of government there
must be no rote lacking when its elec
tive majority is announced on December
n. . t . , . e 1
uw. next, m manuaie 01 power iroru strieted district yesterday. In a despond
the people must be of a sort that will ent mooj the woman swallowed three
remove every obstacle and every doubt
and give it a clear channel in which to
effect and solidify the reforms needed
Let no man think that because he has
registered once his duty is done in the
premises; HE MUST REGISTER
TWICE and do both acts in season, or
find himself debarred from the exercise
of his prerogative. Under the new law
if a man is not registered he may not
sign the petition of any man for nomi
nation to office, a pre-requisite of grave
importance to the men who are put for
ward by the party at the hands of its
voters; hence, the obligation to register
is paramount because of its dual signi
ncance. lue direct primary law is a
mass of contradictions, and the simplest
of its provisions are those providing for
the double registration; this once at
tended to, subsequent requirements may
be ascertained and observed with what
leisure you will, but, fundamentally,
YOU MUST REGISTER TWICE!

BOLDEST AND STRONGEST.
As an independent, President Roose
velt will Jung rt'main as one of the bold
est and strongest against a powerful
"system," political and financial. One of
the positions he has taken is against
railroad rebates on freight. He has
urged the necessity of legislation upon
congress, but that branch of the gov
eminent has not as yet stood with him.
The railroad companies, one of the most
powerful political factors of today, have
opposed the president, and a renewed
declaration of their position is contained
in the statements made the other night
by President Samuel Spencer of the
Southern railway in an address before
the Board of Trade of Newark, N. J. He
assume1 to criticise the position of the
president. He regards the proposed leg1
station giving the interstate commerce
commission power to fix rates as a viola
tion of the fundamental principle of
Anglo-Saxon jurisprudence. It is a fine
sense of reverence for law that the rail
road magnates occasionally manifest
They have a certain respect for the com
mission, but when the principle of the
constitution under which the commis
sion was created is the only one that
ran be applied to correct abuses they
do not want it applied. The significant
feature of President Spencer's remarks j
TRIES SUICIDE AGAIN.
Nellie Thompson, Woman of Restricted
District Takes Anti-Septic Tablets.
For the fourth time in a year, Nellie
Thompson, better known as "15ig Nell,"
attempted self-destruction in her room
over the Rig Swede saloon in the re-
anti-septic tablets. Her shrieks of
agony attracted the attention of the in
mate of the saloon below, who sum
moned medical assistance, and the pois
on was pumped from her stomach. The
woman was not unconscious, but suffer
ed intense agony. Several hours after
taking the poison, hemorrhage of the
stomach set in, mid t!ie woman's life
was again dei-pain-d of.
The Thompson woman appears to
have a mania for suicide, and is appar
ently particular as to the kind of pois
on she takes. On three previous occas
ions she has attempted to end her own
existence, and on each occasion swal
lowed anti-septic tablets. Each time
she was prevented from accomplishing
her purpose, only by the narrowest mar
gin. With the police, the attempted suicide
of the woman has become an old story.
She has tried it so many times and
failed, that they have come to consider
it a joke. They declare that the at
tempt at suicide by the woman, usually
follows her drinking of intoxicants to
excess.
Don't Borrow Trouble.
It is a bad habit to borrow anything,
but the worst thing you ean possibly
borrow, is trouble. When aick, sore,
heavy, weary and worn-out by the pains
and poison of dyspepsia, biliousness,
Bright' dLeae, and similar internal
diaordejH, don't ait down and brood
over your symptoms, but fly for relief
to Electric Bitters. Here you will find
sure and permanent forgetfulness of all
your troubles, and your body will not
be burdened by a load of debt disease.

8otne four years ago I was suffering
from impure blood and a general run
down condition of the system. I had nc
appetite, wasloainjr flesh, and had an ali
ne tired feeling that made me misers-
I organ the use of S . S. and
after taking seven or eijjht bottles my skin
was cleared of all eruptions and took on s
ruddy, healthy glow that assured me that
my blood had been restored to its nor
mat, healthy condition. My appetite wai
restored, as I could eat anything put be

I increased in weight, and that "tired feel-,
