Registration of Voters Closes al Midnight on Wednesday Next. EGISTRATION OF VOTERS will close next Wed. nesday at midnight, and all citizens who have not had their names enrolled on-the Great Register by that time will not.be entitled to vote at the coming election in November. Up to the present time the total registration of voters is 1400 short of the number which should now be on the roll, as compared with the total registration in 1900. It is evident that many voters have been careless and have neglected to attend to this important duty, and it behooves all such procrastinators to get aspeedy move’on, as time in which to register is getting dangerously short and any further delay is liable to result in complete neglect to qualify and the forfeiting of their privilege to vote. There can be no excuse for failure to register, for County Clerk Arbogast has gone out of his way at considerable expense to afford facilities for registration. He has deputies in every town iu the county, nevertheless, a great many voters are still unregistered. If any voter finds himself disqualified on election day, it will be his own fault. For the accommodation of those who desire to register, County Clerk Arbogast will keep his office open tonight and every night until registration closes up tog o’clock, The night of September 24th he will keep it open until 12 o'clock. Hurry up and get your name on. aeeaeoaeeee 4 4h 4 A 13-Cent Stamp. ITHIN A FEW DAYS the die proof-of the first stamp of the new series of United States stamps will be taken—the 13-cent denomination, with Gen. Benjamin Harrison, occupying the central portion of the design. As soon as the proot die is approved by the Postmaster General plates will be made and the stamp issued to the public. This will be the first 13-cent stamp ever issued by the United States, although up to 1879 stamps of the value of 7 cents had been in use nearly ten years. When the rate of foreign postage was reduced from 7 to 5 cents the 7-cent denomination was discontinued. The new value will be practically unknown in the United States, as far as domestic use is concerned. Its issue will be the outgrowth of the increased foreign registration service, the 13-cent stamp paying the postage and registration fee upon a letter weighing one-half ounce anywhere within the limits of the universal postal union, which now includes practically all*the civilized’ nations of the world. At the present time two stamps are required to frank a registered foreign letter—s cents for postage and 8 cents for registration. Philatelists and stamp experts who have examined the design for the new stamp Says it will be the finest specimen of a postage stamp ever produced; not even excepting the famous Columbian series and the PaneAmerican set. In addition to the usual “United States of America” and ‘‘Postage Thirteen Cents,” the inscription ‘Series of 1902,” together with “Harrison” and figures giving dates of birth and death appear upon the design, The portrait of Harrison was selected by Mrs. Harrison, and is said to have been the favorite photo of the late president himself. At the time the postoffiice department ordered the new series a request was made of the treasury that special effort be made to provide a series of stamps that should be distinc— tive and indicative of the progress in the engraver’s art and in designing, for which the United States has become famous, and the bureau of engraving and printing has entered into the spirit of the occasion and will produce the finest specimens of which it is capable. Immediately following the 13-cent denomination will come the 4-cent. This stamp will not bear the familiar features of President Lincoln, as heretofore Lincoln is superseded upon the 4-cent stamp by President Grant. The two former presidents merely change places; Grant appears upon the 4 and Lincoln, later, will have a place upon the 5. The drawing fer the new 5-cent, face of Lincoln, has been approved by the postoffice department and the engrav— ers are yow at work upon the die. It will be entirely different fromi he 13-cent value, in fact each stamp will have a distinctive design, differing from the series of stamps now in use, all of which. have one common design save the portrait represented within the central oval. _ It is anticipated that the entire new series will be on-sale before the close of the present year. The series will not appear all at one time, but from time to time, as the dies are approved and the plates made. It is customary to change a series of postage stamps every eight or ten years. The present set has performed service continuously’ for twelve years, however. ee ee ee ee ee A Pioneer Resident Joins the Silent Majority.
