Large Addition Expected to the Number

County Citizens Should Register Now.

THE COMING
] HAT the addition to the total number of voters in the
country is likely to be this year is very hard to con—
jecture, for the reason that between 1896 and 1900, so
far as the election returns show, there was practically no gain
in the number of electors. 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.

CLOUDBURST AT AUBURN
Unprecedented Downpour in
Placer County Results in
Great Damage.
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.
