Citizens Who Want to Vote Will Have to Be Careful to Sec Names Are on the Poll Books. Registrars engaged in listing the1 voters of Wheeling for the primary May 10, and general city election, May 21, are expected ..to complete J their task today. Owing to the short time in which the registrars had to take the poll ol the city vote, they have depended largely upon the poll books of the election last fall to secure their lists of voters for the city election. On Monday the registrars will sit in the several precincts in the city, each in the voting place in his own precinct, for the purpose of amending the registration book's. Those who are entitled to a vote and whose names may have been missed by the registrar may he registered then. The registrars will sit from 9 a. m. to 12 o'clock "noon and from 1 p. m. to f? p. m. in the precinct voting' placfji. On Tuesday .at the same hours, all the ivgisi raits will sit in the Second branch council chamber at city hall for the same purpose. Every voter who desires a voice in the selection of the men who will rule th" city for the two years beginning July 1. if he is not absolutely certain that he is registered, should either see his precinct registrar in his pre-! cinct voting place during the hours specified Monday, or at the council chamber Tuesday. Apparently if vot ers are not on the registration books by 5 o'clock Tuesday evening they will not be permitted to vote. The ordinance adopted Tuesday night by council provides specifically thai vot ers not registered shall not be allowed j to vote. No provision is made fori permitting citizens to davits. Notices bearing the precinct registrar and which they will sii Monday for the purpose of registering voters whose j names have been missed are posted in each of the thirty-nine city precincts.!
