The people of Albany will soon
have an opportunity to settle old
scores with their eneuicis. If the in

no greater injury.

One of the easiest things in the
world is to tell the other fellow how
to conduct his business. It don't
cost you a cent if he takes your ad
vice and loses and if he declines to
substitute your judgment for his own
it doesn't cost you more.
According to the press dispatches

AN ALIBI.
In (he October American Magazine
Charles Dillon writes an article en
titled "Humors of the Courts." It i.s
made up largely of funny true stories
told by lawyers of their experiences.
J "he following is a story of a prisoner
who became di.sgii.ited with his lawyer
and took his case into his own hands:
"A western lawyer whose practice
seldom goes beyond the justice courts
strayed into a lawyer's club one night,
ostensibly to look for an acquaint
ance, and after he had gone someone
.old this one about him:
"Tdack's chief fault," sail the man
in front of the fireplace, 'is his dispo
sition to ask leading questions. These
questions, as anyone can see, are in
tended to warn the witness how to
answer. Once, not long ago, this man
endangered his client's liberty, or the
client thought so, for, at any rale, he
suddenly took the case into his own
hands. 'You have no case, Mike, the
discomfitted lawyer whispered. You'll
. uin yourself. ou hit that Chinaman
and a lot of people know ii. The
judge himself knows it. If you only
had an alibi, a good witness to call.'
"'There's Tim Maginnis,' said Mike,
l.oiu'iug into the audience. 'I spoke
to him. lie knows what to say.'
"'Pine. Take your case. I've had
enough of it. When Fong Voo fin
ishes his story you call Maginnis and
ask him a question to show where
ou were when the Chink was struck.'
"At the proper moment Mike, look
ing very wise and very self-important,
.ailed Tim Maginnis
"'Mr. .Maginnis,' he began, 'do ym
I'liiterslaud ibe nature of an oath?'
"'I t'ink I do,' Tim replied, a hit
:: relessly.
"'Well, sor,' said Mike, holding his
'ead high, 'will you please tell the
onit where I was when I struck (h
Chiuymau in front av the hotel?'
"'Ye were home in lied," was the
Mounding reply, but poor Mike was
on ieled."
The ice man, having earned his wage
which was cnusidcrd large is ready
row to leave the stage, and give the
oal man charge. Through all the
-umnier months we coughed our coins
to dodge the heat; the ice man's snap
was large and soft, distributing his
Mcet. Aaud now while winter rants
and groans, while howl the deadly
stoiiu, we'll cough up all our extra
none, iu effort to keep warm. The
coal man is a cheerful wight, and
naught his rapture mars; he basks on

resentatives of the commercial clubs

The manager was instructed to place
this matter before the county

urge them to have delegates at the

YOU MU3F REGISTER
IF YOU WANT 10 VOTE
Swearing in of Electors at
Polls is Eliminated by !
New Law.
If you want to vote in the coming
city election on December 1, you must
register before November 22. As has
been the case, electors have been
sworn in at the polls and allowed to
vote but under the new order of
things this cannot be done any more
unless the supreme court should hold
compulsory registration invalid. In
plain words, "you must register to
vote."
Read this relating to the statutes
and constitution relating to elections
iu the state of Oregon for 1913:
Section 6. No elector who is not
registered as provided in his act shall
be entitled to vote at any election
provided for by law except in school
district or road district elections;
provided that in cise the supreme
court should hold the above provision
for the compulsory registration in
valid then, and in that case only the
elector may register with the judges
of the elcctim upon election day.
This morning another clerk was ad
ded to the registration force in City
Recorder Van Tassel's office. Ed.
Washburn is now engaged in the
work of assisting in filling out the
registration blanks. Mrs. Harriet Van
Tassel is the other registration clerk
and the two have been kept fairly
busy during the day, while Recorder
Van Tassel has been kept on the go
swearing in the electors.
According to figures compiled by
Mrs. Van Tassel, a total of 102 have
thus far registered. Out of this num
ber 26 are woman. That number in
cludes those who had registered up
until 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon
from the second of the month when
the books were opened.
Recorder Van Tassel again stated
this morning that if registration does
assume a more of a brisk aspect, that
scores will not he able to vote. He
contends that a bigger average of reg
istrations should be made daily to
avoid the rush towards the close and
to enable those who cpmc iu late to
get in in time. From the present in
dications there will be a big rush to
wards the close of the books or an
unusually small dumber of eligible
voters will be registered for the com
ing election.
