WK REGISTRATION IS DECIDED UPON HERE

County Auditor Ferguson Decide* That Old Poll Books Will Not BE-Depended On.

Thomas Ferguson, county auditor, sTuesday morning dispatched letters to I each of the county political chairmen, announcing his intention to call a genqral registration of all the voters of

.•ft?*'-

Vigo county preceding the general election in the fall. Mr^ Ferguson announced that in view bf tin finding of the federal court at

Indianapolis that many illegal registratlons were mad? at the 1914 elections, and to preclude all possibilities of an' unfair election, he had determined to call for a general registration o{ .' the voters. Under the registration law passed by the last legislature it is provided that those who registered" and whose names ai?e on the poll books -in 1914 are not required to register -unless the county auditor sefcfe fit. The .law provides that new voters in each precinct who did not register in 1914 .'must register and as new precincts will be'declared in various townships before the fall election and registrations of .the entire new precinct made, this alone would have caused confusion -With other precincts where no registrations would be held, County Auditor

Ferguson said. Mr. Ferguson's letter to the county -rhairm

A' .... A -chairmen follows: a I54tC i -Pear Sir:—You have, no doubt, real '?cWved a copy of the.interpretation of !§j ethe registration laws of 1913 and" 1915 gp made by the lawyers appointed by Gov- .. .ernor Ralston, which interpretation iiJ4|i|was approved by the state chairman of ^t Ahc democrktlc. republican and progresalve parties. v I desire to notify you that I, as audiitor of Vigo county, have determined to 1 .^oall for a-'complete registration Of all vdters of this county. The public, in general. believes that there was false and fraudulent registration in previous [gmevn and. in view of the fact of the .prosecutions in the federal courts at y undlnpdlis, I think it would give, great-. '•r.-.etV Satisfaction to the people of this countv to have a jreneral registration ift 'the entire countv. By so do}ng, the -expense of the county will be no greater than it would be to have a partial, registration under the laws as interpret&ted by the said lawyers and ap-

fproved

by the various state chairmen.1 I am, yours very respectfully, THOS. FERGUSON,

Auditor Vipro County, Indiana. "The federal court held that those poll books were in some instances fraudulent," said Mr. Ferguson. "I can not dd otherwise but to disregard them and ask for another general registration." George Moorhead. chairman of vthe democratio county -committee, was s v,the fllirst1 to'respond to Mr. Ferguson's announcement.

Mr." Moorhead on receipt of Mr. Fer- -. #i^sonfs announcement, sent the following letter to the county. auditor., n August 16, 19is. lEr.. Th6mas Ferguson, 4, County Auditor, Vigo C»unty.:

Dear .Sir:— Your letter announcing' your determination to call for a general registration in this 6ounty, received this xriofnheartily endorse your course and i toow.'.that a great majority of the'vot.of all parties believe that. there

MONEY MACHINE CO. SELECTS READING 81IE

Freight Item Required That Plant Get Nearer to Steel Making Locality.

During the past year business at the Terre Haute plant of the International Money Machine company has been so heavy that it was absolutely necessary for the company to build a larger plant than the one they occupy at present. After careful consideration, Reading, Pa., was decided upon as the site for the new plant. This decision was made from among 76 cities and towns which have communicated with and visited President and General Manager Edward C. Baker, in efforts to land the plant.

Mr. Baker has already opened an office in heading, and Saturday he will leave for that city to make his future home and superintend the work being done on the new plant.* One big reason for the selection of Reading as the site -of .the plant is. the, fact that the various kinds of steel, much of which is used in the manufacture of the. money machines can be secured Reading, in fact it «is bought in that locality now and shipped to this city. Reading also offers better housing conditions for the employes of the company, and as a big majority of the employes are experts in their various lines and draw large salaries, this. Is an important consideration.

Get Modern Plant.

When completed the new plant at Reading will represent an outlay of $200,000 and will be complete and modern in every detail. When completed the plant will consist of three ractory buildings, an office bulging, a heating plant and a large garage. At present only the central factory building and the officfe building are being erected and the contractor has agreed to have these ready for occupancy by the middle of November.

When completed this 'main factory building Will accommodate 500 men. At present'about 138 men are employed at the Terre Haute plant and arrangements ai-e being made to double this number as soon as the Reading plant is ready for operation. This number will be increased to 500 as fast as competent men can be secured. With the completion of the central factory building, work on the other two buildings will be started.

The International Money Machine company numbers among its customers the largest factories almost every line that are to be found in the country and according to Mr. Baker the machine has given universal satisfaction. Three grades of machines are imade by the cohipany, a J600 money machine, a $400 money macihine and a $250 adding machine.

Big Demand for Product. The constantly Increasing demand for these machines is the principal reason why'a new factory was needed. Mr. Baker says that never at any time during the past year has the Terre Haute plant been able to meet the demand for machines that has been made upon it and that it is always behind. The rush demand for machines has been so heavy during the past summer that it is very seldom that a completed machine has been allowed to remain in the factory over night.

According to present plans the Terre Haute employes of the company and their families will be moved to Reading about the first of December.

YEAR'S CHASE*ENDS.

PUT RAILROAD MEETING OFF T0T0H0RR0W

Continued From ?ag« One,

veyed to the men by W. S. Carter, head of the firemen's brotherhood who addressed them at a fully attended meeting. "No organization can afford to ignore aft invitation from the president of the, United-States" were the words used, it vas learned, by the man who moved to accept the invitation and the motion, was carried unanimously.

The engineers and conductors were to leave New YorkVver the Baltimore &/Ohio soon, after 1 o'clock and the firemen over the Pennsylvania at about the same time. It was believed that Mr. Carter discussed the general situation with the chairman in an informal way and that they will meet the president with an adequate understanding of it.

The chief reason for requiring the pr.eaence. of the -men- in Washington it VdS- poiHted' out'r Wa3 that the four brotherhood chiefs could not bind the employes to an agreement without the ratification of the chairmen. The presence of the chairmen on the scene will serve to expedite the negotiations:

While President Wilson, the managers' committee and the. spokesmen for the men awaited the arrival of the employes' committee of 640 which 'is expected here from New York fof" the next white house conference, administration officials and the representatives of the two sides considered the commission idea wUh a degree of seriousness which indicated it would come into the negotiations as one of the next steps in the president's attempt to avert a nation-wide strike.

Representatives of the railway managers were favorable to the plan in principle, and administration officials Investigating its availability, found that A. B. Garretson, spokesman for the men, while a member of the federal industrial relations commission, made a report favorihg such an idea as an enlargement of the present federal board of mediation and conciliation. It was 'realized on all hands, however, that the proposal was merely in the status of a suggestion, which must pass the test at further conferences with the president.

Meapwhlle the situation remained unchanged, with both sides hoping for a way out of the* difficulty, and no developments promised until tomorrow when the, meetings at the whfte house will, be resulted.,

Where Presided Stands.

After speaking tomorrow to the 640 representatives of the employes President 'Wilson Will make public his remarks.

This possibility is regarded as very significant of the president's intention to make cleat* the responsibilities for plunging the country into a nationwide industrial disturbance and the manner, in which: he has brought'it to bothi sides. If the president makes public his remarks it will be the first disclosure of- what ha® taker, place at the inside conferences.
