Voters can now register and we find
that the statement we made last week
to the effect th.it those who registered
taut mrintf would be compelled to
register again Is a mistake. 1'he reg
latration DBDera from this district
having been turned over to the new
county authorities by Waaoo county
only those, who have not registered
tbia year will be required to do 10.
Aa tha ooruina election Is the most
important one we have voter should
register early.
The movement put on foot by the
Woman'a club of Uood River to have
