From 1876 to 1880 there was a gain of 809,000; from 1880 to 1884, a gain of 1,000,000; from . . 1884 to 1888, a gain of 1,300,000; from 1888 to 1892, a gain of 500,000, and from 1892 to 1896, a gain of 1,900,000. Between 1876 and 1896 the popular vote for Presidential electors increased 65 per cent, or from 8,400,000 to 13,900,000. Apparently owing to the fact that a vast multitude of voters did not go to the polls at all in 1900, the total popular vote in that year was only 40,000 greater than it was in 1896; and, if anything like a full vote is polled next fall there should be an enormous unprecedented increase in the total vote. In the eight years ending with November, 1896, this vote increased 2,400,000, and, as the population. of the country has been steadily expanding since 1896, the total vote this year should show a far greater increase than that of 1888-96. A thing that renders it extremely difficult to forecast what the increase in this vote may be is the fact that an exceptionally large number of immigrants have landed on our shores in recent years. In the eight years ended with 1903 over 3,500,000 foreign-born persons were added to our population, and a considerable proportion of those persons is now naturalized, and they will take part in the next election. What the proportion may be, however, it is impossible to judge. It is none too early for political leaders and managers to grasp the fact tnat “first voters” are likely to constitute a more important factor in the approaching campaign than ever before, and, as a consequence, that they are likely to prove a greater unknown quantity than has ever been the case hitherto, Evidently both of the great political parties will need todo a vast amount of missionary work if they hope for victory in November. In order to roll up the largest vote possible at the next election, all citizens should bear in mind that a great deal is depending on each’ one individually whether he enrolls his name on the Great Register of the county in which he lives AT ONCE, and thus makes certain of his qualification as a voter, or whether by carelessness, indifference or procrastination this important duty of registering is neglected and many hundreds of American citizens wake up to the fact a few weeks before election that they are not entitled to a vote, having neglected to qualify themselves by registering when they had plenty of time and opportunity. Many thousands of votes are lost every election, in the aggregate, by the country through the indifference of voters in registering. Every citizen in Nevada county who is eligible to vote at the coming election should make it a point to go and register their names with the County Clerk NOW, and not delay this important duty, for in delay there is great danger of forgetfulness. Up to the present time, so County Clerk Arbogast informs us, but a small proportion of Nevada county voters have yet registered, so it is time that these unqualified and prospective voters were waking up. Geta move on you, gentlemen; remember that every citizen who wishes to vote has GoT To RE-REGISTER THIS} YEAR. How to Prevent Wormy Nevank City DaILy TRanscrirt THF On MOTH Apples--A Bulletin . Just Issued. We have just received from the Agricultaral Experiment Station at Berks ley a bulletin entitled “Directions for Spraying for the Codlin Moth.” The writer, Prof,O. W. Woodworth, hae demonstrated that the insect can be controlled under a gréat variety of climatic conditions, so that the loss is reduced to a very small per centage. This cannot be done by following blindly the same programme in every district. The bulletins contains very explicit directions for obtaining the facts upon which the proper timing of the treatments must depend. Growers should not have any difficulty in making the observations suggested. The production of wormy fruit should not be tolerated when it can be avoided by the proper attention to the de. tails here indicated. We have a few copies of this bulletin for free distribution at. the Transcript oftice. Any one can have a copy of it. ca Fight to Death. Reppine, March 28 — Coleman’s brickyard, at the southern limits of Redding, was the ecene of a brutal murder and terrific fight last evening. Asaresult A. W. Davis, a miner, lies atthe morgue, Jim Leaby ie in the county hospital with several dangerous knife wounds in his body and Jack L,wson and a tramp called “Pankey” are in jail, the latter suffering from an exceédingly sore head. Davis’ body was fll gf knife wounds and ballet holes, wd was found lying near the cabin where the fight took place. Leaby was crawling toward town with three terrible wounds in his chest and abdomen. All he remembered was that there wasa fight and a description of the other two men, The men were captured, but neither will say a word, although it is believed “Pankey” the boy tramp, is the one who killed Davis.

Ausurn, March 29.—This section of Placer county was visited by a tremendous downpour of water last night, presumably the result of a cloudburst, and great damage was done to the property of people generally throughout the county, as well as in this locality. Snrface ground of valu able orchard and agricultural lands was washed out, trees of all kinds uprooted and growing crops ruined, The damage throughout this section will foot up many thousands of dollars, In this city the streets resembled rivers during the downpour and nearly all the cellars in town were flooded. Reports from Colfax state that a tremendous and unprecedented downpour visited that section, and it is feared that considerable damage has resulted to orchards and vineyards in that vicinity.
