ESTIMATES THAT ABOUT 80
PER CENT ARE WOMEN
Clerk Has Been Busy for Sev
eral Days Arranging
Precinct Supplies.
Showing a total registration oi 2432
voters in Linn county, who didn't reg
ister at the last election, but wiio
rei .lered for the coming special elec
tion, County Clerk Marks today made
a report of the registration in tills
county.
Mr. Marks estimates that SO percent
of this number arc women. This tact
can be easily accounted lor, by tl:
reason that all ot those who regis
tered tor tlie election in Ivl did no1
have to register for the special elec
tion, and at that, time the women were
not electors. However, it is believed
that a small percentage ot the eligible
women voters in J -inn county reg
istered. County Clerk .Marks esti
mates that there is about 51 XX) eligible
o neii electors in the county am!
that out of tli is number only about
registered.
