VOL. 111. Registration Order. Hr.ttwjrAUTKKs, 3'p Military Pi*’t, j (Georgia, Florida and Alabama,) l Atlanta, Ga., May 21, 1867.) General Orders, ) No. 20. ; In accordance with an act of Con gress, supplementary to an Act to pro vide a more efficient Govcrumeut for the reliel States, Ac., dated March 2, 1867, the following arrangements are herein made for the registration of vo ters in the States ot Georgia and Ala bama. I. The States of Georgia and Alaba ma, are divided into Registration Di stricts, numbered and bounded, as here inafter described. 11. A Board of Registration is herein appointed for each District, as above mentioned, to consist of two white Re gisters, aud one colored Register. In the State of Georgia, where only the two white Registers are designated in this Order, it is directed that these white Registers in each District imme diately select, and cause to be duly qualified, a competent colored man to complete the Board of Registration, and report his name and Postoffiee address, without delay, to Col. C. C. Sibley, commanding District of Georgia, at Macon, Georgia. 111. Each Register will be required to take and subscribe to the oath pre scribed by Congress, by an act dated July 2, 1862, and an additional oath to discharge faithfully the duty of Register under the late Acts of Congress. It is not believed that any of the appoint ees, heretofore designated, will be unable to take the test oath above mentioned. Blank forms of these oaths will be sent to the appointees at once, and on being executed and returned to the uperinteudents of State Registra tion, their Commissions as Registers will be issued, and forwarded to them immediately. IV. In order to secure a full registra tion of voters, it is determined to fix the compensation ot Registers according to the general rules adopted in taking the census. Jn the cities, the compensation is fixed at fifteen cents for each recorded voter; in the most sparsely settled counties and districts, at forty cents per voter. The compensation will he grad uated between these limits, according to the deusity of the population, and the facilities of the communication. Ten cents per mile will be allowed for trans portation ot Registers off the lines of railroads or steamboats, and live cents per mile, when travel is done on rail roads and steamboats. V. It is hereby trade the duty of all Registers, and they will be expected to perform it strictly, to explain to all persons, who have not heretofore enjoyed the right of suffrage, what are their political rights and privileges, and the necessity of exercising them upon all proper occasions. VI. The name of each voter shall appear in the list of voters, for the precinct or ward in which he resides; and in cases where voters have been unable to register, whilst the Boards of Registration were in the wards or pre cincts, where such voters live, oppor tunity will be given to register at the county seats of their respective counties, at a specified time, of which due notice will be given; but the names of all voters, thns registered, will be placed on the lists of voters of their respective precincts. VII. The Boards of Registration will give due notice, so that it ntay reach all persons entitled to register, ot the date when they will be in each election pre cinct; the time they will spend in it; and the place where the registration will be made; and upon the completion of . the registration for each county, the Board of Registration will give notice that they will be present, for three suc cessive days at the county seat of such county, to register such voters, as have failed to register, or been prevented from registering in their respective precincts, and to hear evidence in the case of voters, rejected by the Registers in the several precincts, who may desire to present testimony in their own behalf. \ 111. Unless otherwise instructed hereafter, Boards of Registration are directed, in determining whether appli cants to register are legally qualified, to hold that, the terms “Executive and Judicial,” in the Acts of Congress of March 23, 1867, comprise all persons whomsoever, who have held office under the Executive, or Judicial Department of the State, or National Government— in other words, all officers not Legisla tive, which last are also excluded by the Act. Persons who apply to register, hut who are considered disqualified bv the Boards, will be permitted to take the required oath, which, with the objections ot the Board, will be held for adjudication hereafter. IX. The lists of registered voters, for each of the precincts, will be exposed in some public place in that precinct, for ten consecutive days, at some time sub sequent to the completion ot the regi stration for each county, and before any election is held, in order that all sup posed cases of traudulent registration may be thoroughly investigated. Due i.otice will be given and provision made for the time and place for examination aud settlement of such cases. X. Blank books of oaths, required to be taken by voters, ana blank registra tion lists, as also full and detailed in structions lor the performance of their duties, will be at once forwarded to the Boards of Registration, appointed in this Order; aud it is enjoined upon these Boards that they proceed to complete the registration with all energy aud dis patch. XI. The detailed instructions to Re gisters will designate the member of each Board who shall be its President. XII. Violence, or threats of violence, or any other oppressive means to pre vent any person from registering his name, or exercising his political rights, are positively prohibited; and it is distinctly announced that no contract or agreement with laborers, which deprives them of their wages for any longer time (ban that actually consumed in register ing or voting, will be permitted to be enforced against them in this District; and this offense, or any previously mentioned in this paragraph, will cause the immediate arrest of the offender and his trial before a Military Commis sion. XIII. The exercise of the right of every duly authorized voter, under the late Acts of Congress, to register and vote, is guaranteed by the Military Authorities of this District; and all persons whomsoever are warned against [ any attempt to interfere to prevent and AUGUSTA, GA., SATURDAY MORNING, JUNE 1, 1867. man from exercising this right, under any pretext whatsoever, other than objection by the usual legal mode. XIV. In case of any disturbance, or violence at the places of registration, or any molestation of Registers or of nppli cants to register, the Boards ot Regis tration will call upon the local civil authorities for a police force, or a posse to arrest the offenders and preserve quiet, or, if necessary, upon the nearest military authorities, who are hereby instructed to furnish the necessary aid. Any civil officials who refuse, or who fail to protect Registers, or applicants to register, will be reported to the head quarters of the Officer Commanding in the State, who will arrest snch delin quents, and send charges against them to these headquarters, that they may be brought before a Military Commission. »****» By command of Brevet Major Gen.
