for the ballot frauds and swindles that-

been upon the point of suggesting to
tie new Legislature the necessity of
enacting such- a law for the whole'

aider the' impression that such, a
movement would be strenuously op
posed by the members from North
Georgia, where the basis for election

and district i.-i the State, from even
ihe fear of the evil results of illegal
voting. . ; -
We might cite several instance)
where a registration would have pre
vented the most outrageous fraud-,
but it i- o :'y reevs. r ,• to ref« r to the
recent el-ctiou iu Thomas County,
wheie there were three httndreci
more Radical votes cast thau then
are colored voters iu the connty—not-
withstanding it was known that tw<
or- thyeie hundrvd negr..es failed ti
vote, while many oihers; voted witi
the Democrats. A registration law
would have prevented all this, and fin
Democrats would have received tin
majority to wnich they were, really en
titled.
First and foremost, the law slionlc
require every votei to pay his poll tax
and, upon presentation ot his tax re
ceipt, be allowed to register his name
and he should be compelled to regi-
terat his oW)i preeinct. This woiih
effectualiy put a stop to all repeatiu
aud illegal voting, and would be a
fair ior one race as for another.. Wi

mirably. Without, it, indeed, illega
votes would have long sihee placei
the city and county in the . hands o;
