The intention of the law, according to the clerk, is to keep the precincts as near a 500 voup§ strength as possible. Up until yesterday it had been believed that not more than 30,000 ballots would be cast. VOLUME XXXVI--NUMBER 44. On the basis of a 45.000 registra-- tion it is believed that the total vote will fun close to 38.250 as about 15% of the registered voters fail to cast a balot 'as a rule. The heads of the ticket, Herbert Hapver and Gov. Alfred E. Smith. are responsible for the heavy regis-- tration for the most part, politicians believe. Gov. Smith has been able to en-- thuse a larger following in Lake county than any Democratic presi: dential candidate in the past. The fact that William J Stratton, of Ingleside, is a candidate for sec-- retary of state. has, also helpid to swell the total, it is believed.

For days while friends and rela: tivees carried on a search the moth-- er of the boy mourned him as dead. She was o fthe belief that the boy would not remain away from home if he were alive. The youth left home early in Sep-- tember. He had just returned from a visit with relatives at Napanee, Neb., and had expressed a desire to remain in that sedtion of the coun-- try. Knowing his fascination for that part of the west the search for him was directed to that part of the county without avail. * The Rev, E. P.

Dom inick, Bresette, 33, Chippewa Indian chief from LaPointe, Wis., reserva tion, and John Brown, 32, Chicago Negro, who'were found guilty and ordered to die on the chair by a jury last week, also appeared in court with Judge Edwards setting the date for the electrocution o% Dec. 15. Clark to Be Electrocuted Along With Brown and Bresette in Murder Harold Martin, 20, and Artbhur Boone, 21, who pleaded guilty to manslaughter, were given from ome to 14 years in the Pontiac reforma® tory. They furnished the car for the trio sentenced to die. MotRBns for new trials,. made by Attorneys George W; Field and Har-- r¥y Hall in behalf of Bresette and Brown, were denied. Bresette pre-- sented the argument thatthe was en titled to leniency because he gave himseM{ up to the police and com tessed the crime. ; Brown stuck to the story he told under oath that he was not at the place. He claimed that the jury was prejudiced and that the Indias turned against him for revenge. Clark is Nervous Clark was the fifth one to face thb court. "I'm sorry to my heart that I ever killed that man," Clark said as a strained look appeared on his face and his fingers twisted inside of the cap that he had placed on the bar. "I didn't try to kill him. There was a big dog just back of me and I aimed to shoot the lock out," be stated. The ceremony was read by Rev. Charles J.

Appeal Uncertain. -- Thirty days were allowed to get a stay for the defendants so that the case could go to the supreme court An appeal is unlikely as they all lack funds. _.© The Indian, from all appearances, faces death with fewer qualms thar Brown and Clark. "I think your story is a frame« story. If 1 didn't think so T'd give you a new'trial," he said. Sheriff Lawrence Doolittle wants to have the prisoners removed as soon as possible.
