GO AND REGISTER.
Only Three Days Before the Books B ill (’lose.
Up to yesterday 777 voters had registered in the
city, 430 of which were in the lower town district
and 347 in the upper town district. At present,
perhaps as many ns one-third of the qualified
voters living in Columbus have failed to register.
There are only three more days, to-wit: Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday led; after which those
who have neglected this duty will be as effectu
ally disfranchised as though nn act of the legisla
ture had been passed especially depriving them
of the privilege of voting. Such a;i act would
justly he considered an outrage upon
the rights of citizens and would
he resented, as both a loss and an indignity. But
if the people are so careless or indifferent to the
right of suffrage as to deciir e to devote the few
minute’s time necessary to walk to the register’s
office and sign their names to the list, then it
looks as if they placed hut a small value upon it.
And yet the only legal method by which a citi
zen can influence the choice of offices is by cast
ing his balot on an election. It may be that one
vote may change the result. At any rate it would
be mortifying to 0110 who had the right to vote
to ace an election going on which
might result in defeating some one whom lie
desired elected, to stand by and see others cast
ing the ballot which he had despised
Now, let every man who is entitled to vote
make it a point to register. It will cost him
nothing, nor will he even be required to vote if
he does not wish, but don’t put yourself in a posi
tion where you will not be allowed to vote.
It may he that the policy of requiring voters to
register is not wise, but it is now too late to con
sider such a question. The intention was to pre
vent the casting of illegal votes and thus keep
the ballot box pure. It would be a great calamity
if it not only failed to do this, but even worked
the disfranchisement of legal voters. We, there
fore, say to all, register.
She Backed Him Oul.
A certain young lawyer of Ellaville will not
make aiy more propositions of marriage to a
young lady in jest. The other night he was in
company with a young lady 0*0111 Chattahoochee
county, who was visiting in Ellavile, ami on their
return from church the young limb of the law
proposed that they he married the next day, to
which the young lady assented, and the
young man chuckled in his sleeves ut
ihe prospective fun. It was agreed between
them that the young lady would call at the hotel
the next morning at a certain hour, when the
young man would be ready with the license,
who thought the young lady would “cave in*’

**Not a no*tion of Brain*.*’
Wichita, Kan., August 22, 1886.
To the Agent of the Mutual Life-Dear Sir:
Success in this world is not a question of brains.
Last winter I made the acquaintance of a gen
tleman who used to be worth $250,000. During
these years he took out $11,000 15 year en
dowment in the Mutual Life. When it had run
11 years he broke up in business and lost all but
his policy, for which the company paid him
$8,000. This gave him a second start. He said:
“If I had not taken an endowment policy I
would now have to work by the day, as the
money paid for the insurance would have gone
iuto the business.” Respectfully,
D. C McKinnon.
Need we say anything relative to the advisa
bility of preparing a financial umbrella for the
proverbial “rainy day” by taking a policy in the
Mutual Life. D. F. Willcox,
