It chooses one of the eleven districts of which the province is composed and instructs its statistical department to describe all the villages with a view of determining the amount of traffic which each will probably contribute to the general movement, and then it verifies its a priori conclusions by means of a detachment of specially selected "registrars," posted at all the crossways during six days of each month.
The clerks in the Prerogative Court of which the registrars and head-clerks were all proctors, who, taking the cue from Chief Registrar Moore, executed their work by deputy, the deputies being clerks working long hours for small salaries had kotooed to them with the most servile subserviency; but the Probate Office clerk was a government official, who could not be removed, even by the judge of the court, without the consent of the lord chancellor.
"I'll pull myself together.... Now, say on once more." "We can't marry without his consent." "Why not?" I said, not having a marked respect for the professor's whims. "Gretna Green is out of date, but there are registrars." "I hate the very idea of a registrar," she said with decision. "Besides " "Well?" "Poor father would never get over it. We've always been such friends.
They each receive an annual salary of five hundred and ten thousand maravedis. They have their clerk of mines, and registrars of the royal revenues, and their executive and other officials, all of whom reside in Manila. From that city they manage and attend to everything pertaining to the royal revenues throughout the islands.
At the close of the registration, 703,000 black voters were on the rolls and 627,000 whites.

General Hancock set aside this action, declaring that he dissented from the construction given to the Reconstruction laws therein, and ordered the registrars to be guided by their own interpretation of the laws and of the Fourteenth Amendment.
Moreover, the judge of the Court of Probate, not being a political officer, has no political pressure brought to bear upon him in the distribution of his patronage, and can dispense it precisely as he pleases. The registrars must, by the terms of the act of Parliament, be barristers, solicitors, or clerks who have served five years in the Principal Registry.
"What is your name?" asked the registrars who received the refugees at the National Cash Register plant of a slender young person in men's clothes. "Nora Thuma," was the reply. "Nora?" they asked. "Yes, I'm a girl," was the answer. She had put on a man's suit in order to cross the perilous span of wires unhampered by skirts. She came in with Ralph Myers, his wife and their little baby.
A building of some sixty stories is now going up sixty corpses, sixty funerals, sixty domestic hearths to be slowly rearranged, and the registrars alone know how many widows, orphans, and other loose by-products!
