Papers were late
A machinery malfunction Saturday in the distribution department at The Gazette kept carriers from getting their weekend papers for delivery until 5:30 p.m. We apologize for the inconvenience to our readers.
The delay was unavoidable and not the fault of individual carriers.
Register to vote
During Tuesday evening’s Christmas parade, voter registration will be open at the Town Royal, 405 Commercial St.
People who are not registered or have had a name or address change since the last time they registered may register at this event.
The registration is sponsored by Emporia Open for Business, an organization that is opposing Clean Air Emporia’s proposed ban on smoking in public places in Emporia.
The group also plans to register voters at other locations during the next couple of months.
