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 />
