Enrollment Light.<br />

To date enrollment is very light. After<br />

the unusual interest shown in the<br />

recent primary election it was expected<br />

that this fall the voters would turn out<br />

to enroll in great numbers. On Saturday<br />

last only 42 persons enrolled in district<br />

No. 1 in which 620 are registered.<br />

Voters may enroll on Saturday, the<br />

18th between 1 p. m. and <strong>10</strong> p. m. Another<br />

opportunity to enroll is given on<br />

Nor. 4. so by that time there may be<br />

a large number added to the 42. District<br />

No. 1 is typical of the others. Not half<br />

of the voters have yet taken an interest<br />

in enrolling to vote in the primary election.<br />

Of course less than half of the<br />

voters go to the polls even in a presidential<br />

election, so the local situation<br />

should not be taken too seriously.<br />

Primaries in the north may continue<br />

to be dull affair from the i>oint of view<br />

of the majority. As a rule a light primary<br />

does not worry the candidates<br />

for office who really have enough on<br />

their hands to campaign for the general<br />

election without a preliminary contest<br />

within the pariy in the primary.<br />

There is. however, a possibility that<br />

some time those who disregard the<br />

matter of enrollment may find a very<br />

sorry primary fight on their hands. So<br />

realizing that hi the long run people<br />

•would rather be safe than sorry, we<br />

urge Republicans to enroll. True one<br />

can enroll on Nov. 4. but if the crowd<br />

about the ix>lls is dense, one is quite<br />

apt to vote and go away, thinking it<br />

is too much bother to enroll. Why not<br />

vinoil tomorrow and do your share to<br />

help your party. Do not continue to<br />
