Before a voter of Indiana can again exercise his rights of suffrage at either a general or a city election, he must register before the county or city precinct board of registration. This requirement results from an enactment of the last legislature, section 1 of which Is as follows: "Be it enacted by tho general assembly of the state of Indiana, that hereafter It shall be unlawful for any person to vote at any general election held In this state unless such person bo at the time a registered voter under the requirements of this act." The law which Includes twentyeight sections. Including heavy penal clauses, was passed, In order to provent election frauds In the state in , the future. Thot who arc acquainted with Its provisions believe tho law will eventually prove Its worth, although at first, because of failure to comply with It, many votes may be lost. What Penalties Are. Penalties for violation of the law 1 arc: false registration or statement, or subscribing name' of another person, or member or members of board making false registration, or a inember or members of the -board of registration neglecting their duty, may for any of the offenses bo fined In any sunt not exceeding $500. excepting In regard to members of boards neglecting thel? duty. In which ease the, minimum flue which can be imposed is $50. In addition, any one found guilty of lolating any of these provisions of the law may be Imprisoned for not more than live years nor less than one. Few nre familiar with the law. inasmuch as when It was up for passago It received little If any prominence. Voters will have three opportunities before a general election to register. The law states that the registration board shall hold sessions on Thursday. ISO days preceding the election, the second session on Friday, 60 days before the election, and the third on Monday, 29 days before the election. These meetings are to be advertised by the county auditor and be held in each voting precincts in rooms suitable for this purpose, and. If possible, these meeting places in each precinct shall be the same at each meeting. The board of registration can sot meet la a saloon or any other

In the current bulletin of the state board of health, which will appear in a short time, H. E. Barnard, state food and drug commissioner, will hold out to the housewives of the state, the first real hope in four years of cleaning up all dairies in the fetate and of compelling the delivery of clean and wholesome milk The hope is based on the fact by which the department now has a law by which the dairyman who has an unsanitary dairy tan be compelled to clean it up, or be forced out of business through successive arrests and the assessments of fines. In 1907, when the enrolling clerks of the house or senate were at work on the pure food and drug law, they left out the word "himself in the section pertaining to dairymen, with the result that while the department could prosecute a milk wagon driver if he sold dirty milk, the owner of the establishment could not be prosecuted. The result has been that the food and drug department has been unable for four years to make any appreciable progress in cleaning up the dairy conditions, the employes of the establishments always taking the stand that they were merely the servants of the owner, and the owner taking refuge behind th error of th enrolling clerks. Proprietor Now Responsible. Under the amended act of 1911, the proprietor is made equally responsible wjth the employe and on the strength of the new measure the department has instructed its field inspectors to see to it that the situation is cleared up. While inserting the word "himself in the old law, the recent general assembly also provided that when a bottle of milk is held up to the light and dirt is visible in the bottom of the bottle, the dealer may be prosecuted the same as if he w ere selling adulterated milk, and the presence of the dirt is made prima facie evidence of adulteration. By this means the departments expects to be able to enforce clean-up orders which heretofore have been virtually dead letters. Several dealers in various parts of the state have already been prosecuted under the new law because the milk contained visible dirt. In every case the court has found the defendant guilty, and attorneys for the defence have freely admitted not only the violation of the law, but the responsibility of their clients. la March the department Inspected

George Bird twenty-six, a former New York and Philadelphia diamond broker, discontinued his courtship with Miss Ixmise Wiasak, seventeen, of Shilo Valle, 111., when he learned she was employed as a servant. Bird said it was love at first sight. He said he would gladly have married her, althoiigh she was a servant, had she not. misrepresented herself to him. Miss Wiasak denied she had made any misrepresentations. Bird declares she told him her father owned the apartment in which she lived, in addition to two automobiles. Miss Wisak says she merely told him she lived ther. Bird says he met her one Sunday down town, and asked if he might see her home. He said she consented, and he then met her almost daily until last Wednesday afternoon, when his suspicion that she was a servant was aroused. He said he became suspicious when she asked him not to go to the apartments, pleading her two brothers objected to her "having company." He said he watched her go in by a side entrance, and nevt day went to the apartments and from the janitor learned Miss Wiasak was a servant. THREE ARE KILLED BY A PENN.

(American News Service) Springfield, 111., April 20.. A new witness, said to be a prominent Chicago business man, is to go on the witness stand before the Helm committee today and testify to giving $10,000 to the lxrimer "slush" fund, according to reports partly verified by Senator Helm today. The identity of the witness was kept secret. He is said to be an intimate friend of Lorimer. According to reports, he is ope of the ten financiers and politicians vho underwrote the first $100,000 slush fund raised to secure Lorimer's election. The room was crowded with legislators when the committee was ready to convene this afternoon. Former United States Senator Hopkins was present and ready to take the witness stand. A dozen other witnesses were ready, waiting to be called to the witness chair. Tilden is now regarded as one of the most important witnesses to be heard. His check books are expected to show to whom the money alleged to have been collected to buy votes in the legislature for Lorimer, was distributed. Unless he does produce the records, Tilden faces a term in jail for contempt. Members of the committee declared that should he refuse to give up the check books, he would be sent to jail. Edward Hines, the lumber millionaire who was accused by Clarence Funk, general manager of the International Harvester company, of asking him for a $10,000 contribution to the fund, likely will be recalled to the stand. Subpoenas have been served on nearly two hundred members of the general assembly and politicians who
were in Springfield at the time of Lorimer's election and all these were expected to report to the committee tomorrow. Interest in the hearing today Is neck and neck with the trial of Lee O'Neil Browne, which will begin In the Sangamon county courts here Monday. Browne again is to be tried on a charge of bribing legislators to vote for Lorimer. TO DISCUSS HEALTH World's Congress at Washington in 1912.
