The indifference of voters as to registration continues to be a matter of surprise. There was deplorable apathy before, but upon the promuigation of the Supreme Court decision which rendered nugatory the Stratton Primary law, even the desultory interest that was taken fell off perceptibly. The class of people not registered and indifferent about it is the propertyowning and representative class, which has more r-al ircentive to t-kea hand in politics than any other. The man who need not particularly concern himself; to whom it matters no so very much in a large way how things go, is always registered. But the man who has something at stake and should Daturally be interested is often indifferent and will comprise the great bulk of those who are left off the roll. No Assassins Wanted Here.

Frank Morgan discovered ablaze in the yard belonging to the Gogdair estate, near . Washington schoolhouse, and after turning in the alarm immediately went to work to put out the fire. It was soon under control and was out by the time the firemeni arrived. The fire: caught in the dry grass about the ceater of the yard and was making rapid progress toward the house inthe same lot, and burned within two fest of it. Brief Mc ntion.

Offigér Fowler was summoned and ascertained that the fellow was looking for the place where he was lodging, and was the innocent cause of much alarm, . No Temporizing. It was the good Americin way for President McKinley to no longer dally with Li Hung Chang over the situation. He demanded that the government of the United States be put in immediate communication ‘with its minister at Pekin, and would make no promisses nor concession in the mat’er. There was no temporizing or holding back through — fear of consequences, President McKinley is a fall-blooded American, careful in bis movements, clear in his insight, and courageoas Died of Lockjaw. One of Fritz Hoffman’s best horses dropped dead, near the stable on Spring street this afternoon. The cause of death was lockjaw. ‘This is a very greut loss to Mr. Hoffman. Sworn In Today.

If Mr. an were to be elected president it would be by grace of Boss Croker and with the aid of Tammany hall. Without New York Mr. Bryan can not by any possibility be elected and he can not by any possibility capture New York without the aid of Tammany and its boss. , Boss Croker has testified in open court, or, to speak with more exactness, committee, that he is in politics for what he can make ont of it. Mr. Bryan’s champions claim for him the highest political ideals. They regard him as a single minded patriot who would scorn to do evil that good might come of it. Mr. Bryan and the unspeakable Boss Croker have entered into political relations, the one with the other, and the closeness of that relation may be inwire to Boss Croker at Kansas City the friendly words: “My greetings to Tammanny on this anniversary of the nation’s birthday.” : The crucial question is: ‘In the event of Mr. Bryan's election to the presidency which influence will be paramount in the nation’s councils that of Mr. Bryan, the untutored idealist, or that of Mr. Croker, the grand sachem of the most corrup political organiga-, tion on earth? 3 What does the common experience of mankind say of the results of co-par€weak by want of worldly wisdom, and the incarnate soul of mammon steeped. in craft and reinforced by a perfected mechanism for working in iniquity? _ That combination was not fit to be'. made and the voter can rest assured that it was not made without guaranwhen he has mad2 up his mind.
