Notice to Voters
to Register
The law requires that every elector who desires
to vote at the annual city election to be held in and
for the Citv of .Medford on Tuesdav, Januarv 11th,
10H), must register, regardless of any other or for
mer registration.
The registration board will, therefore, sit in the
council room at the city hall, corner Front and
Sixth streets, from one until sovon o'clock p. in.
every day (except Sunday) for seven days more
including today.
Every voter in each ward should make it a
point to come early so as to avoid the usual rush
the hist few days.
Thoro is no other time or place to register. No
witnesses aro required for this registration.
Do not bother the members of the board with
questions as to why this registration is necessary,
etc. The law requires it and tho city officials havo
no other alternative.
However, a proposed amendment to tho city
charter to be voted on at the coming election will,
if carried, do away with this continual bothersoino
registration.
