the Tobacco Association of the

Richmond, Oct. 9th and 10th.
Some weeks ago Mr. L.

members of the trade that he
will address the convention Fri-

will be relation of the to-

Information on Registration.
Raleigh, Oct. 10.-Attorney
General has given an
opinion on registration. He says
that the new registration is
required for the coming election.
All persons registered in the last
election can vote without
again. Once on the per-
roll, they are always on
it. He says further that there is
no reason why any county can-
not order a new registration if
its board of election so desires,
but does not think the latter can
eliminate names on the
registration roll because
the persons do not re-register.
However, minors coming of
age must register. This the
last election in which those who
cannot read and write can
under the grand-father clause
as the Constitution of this limits
the time to December 31st next.
