and as the time is rapidly drawing near
when the books must be closed May
15111 it is hardly to be expected ; that
the retnainrng 1700 voters will be listed.
If citizfhs of 'Marion county desire to
be entitled to vote at the June election,
it will be necessary for them to regis
ter either in the county clerk's office or
before some notary public or justice of
the peace, and all are urged to come in
promptly. 'Many arc doubtless holding
off, expecting to make their proofs be
fore the election' judges at the ' polls,
but, it. is feared, this will be a difficult
maDler, and in some cases an im-possi-
'bility, as tte election judges will not
have the time to take testimony ,and
to register thc voters in addition- to at
tending' to their regular duties, and
many citizens will thus be disqualified
from voting.ywhilc, if they had simply
registered! with the county clerk, they
would experience no trouble.
1 In some of the precincts nearly the
full vote of 1898 has been registered,
while in others only a few of the voters
have complied with the law. The Sa
