PRESIDENT S VETO MESSAGE.
HIS REASONS FOR RETURNING THE SUPPLEMENTAL
BILL TO CONGRESS WITHOUT HIS APPROVAL.
To the Home of Representatives :—
I have considered the bill entitled “An act
supplementary to an act entitled ‘An art to
provide for the more efficient government of
the rebel States,’ passed March 2. lt*G7, and to
facilitate restoration.’’ and now return it to
the House of representatives witn my objec
tions.
This bill provides for the elections in the ten
States brought under the operation of the orig
inal act to which it is supplementary. Its de
tails are principally directed to the elections
for the formation of the State Constitutions ;
but by the sixth section of the bill “all elec
tions’’ in these States, occurring while the
original act remains in force, are brought with
in its purview. Referring to the details, it
will lie found that, first of all, there is to be
a registration of the voters. No one whose
name has not been admitted on the list is to be
allowed to vote at any of these elections. To
ascertain who is entitled to registration, refer
ence is made necessary, by the express lang
uage of the supplement, to the original act and
to the pending bill. The fifth section of the
original act provides, as to voters, that they
shall lie ‘male citizeus-of the State, twenty-one
years old and upwards, of whatever race, color
or previous condition, who have been residents
