V THE NEW ELECTION LAWS
■ Voters Must Register Six Months Be-
fore The General Election.
The application of what is common
iy known as the disfranchisement
amendment to the work of registra
tion, and the provisions of the new
registration act, alike call for special
care in the preparation of the voters'
list to be made up next year, and it
is, therefore, important that the work
of registration should begin as soon
as possible, and that tax collectors
and tax payers should exercise all
[ possible diligence in meeting the re-
■ ipilremenfs of these new provisions.
In order that there may be no re
r mote- possibility of confusion on this
E important question it perhaps should
I be stated that the payment of taxes
1 does not in and for itself constitute
I registration, but that under the new
■ law a concurrent opportunity is as-
I forded for the citizen to pay his tax
I and to register. It is made roanda
, tory upon the tax collector to open
| his registration books at the same
* time he opens his tax books. The
I machinery for doing both at the same
time and place has been ptovided
I whereas it formerly required a spe-
I clal trip for the purpose of reglstra
S tion.
It goes without saying that it is
I still necessary for the taxpayer to
? take an active part in the process of
9 registration, though the opportunity
I is extended so as to permit him to do
this at the time he pays his taxes.
It Is one of the important provis
ions of Ito- new regsit rat ion law that
. the party registering must actually
- take the oath, and that it is not suf
ficient for him merely to sign it or
| to have his name signed to it by the
tax collector or liis deputy.
Under the disfranchisement amend
ment it is a reasonable construction
i that the prospective voter should
make known the qualification under
which lie claims to register, particu
larly If he claims the right as an ex
I soldier or the descendent of one. Un
’ tier certain provisions of the disfran
! ehisenient act a permanent roster is
i made up. and the very fact that it is
to be permanent makes it important
. that the greatest possible care should
be exercised in its preparation.
< The new' registration law affords
an early and convenient opportunity
for registering ft the time taxes are
! paid, and as the tax books will be
opened within a few days the people
should register as they pay their
taxes.
This opportunity will remain open
to them until six months before the
general election. The voters’ Isit will.
1 therefore, be open until about April
I of next year, or three months and
1 ten days after the tax collectors'
books are at least nominally closed,
and those who have failed to pay
' their tax<- become delinquents
i Hut the fact the the voters’ list
iis to be kept open until next April
its no reason why every good citizen
who wishes to participate in the gen
. i ral election next year, and in the
' primary which occurs about sixty
: lays before that time, should not >
| register at once.
! A full six months having elapsed
lime the tax books were opened,
, the voters' list will close about April
11. Within ten days from that time
lie tax collector must make up a list
if I hose who appear to be qualified
; titers, and by April 20 the tax col
■etor. the ordinary and the clerk of
he superior court must make up
■ i list of those who appear to be
I lisqualified.
The registrars will then proceed
| to purge the voters' list, and hear tin
I merits of any challenge which may
i>e made to the right of a register
'd voter to exercise the franchise.
Forty days, which is the period
provided, is not 100 long for this
work, which should be thorough
Pile work must be complete by June.
1. and within five days thereafter
must be filed.
As a safeguard of the ballot there
lean be no question as to the value
of the new law and the citizen should
I avail himself of the opportunity to
[register as he pays his taxes, wheih
; he may do in a period of six months,
beginning October 1. —Atlanta Jour

THE SUMMERVILLE YEWS. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7. 1909.
WHITFIELD PEOPLE EAGER
FOR MR. LEE TO RECONSIDER
(Dalton Citizen.)
When Congressman Lee made his
announcement for congress at the
opening of the last campaign, he did
not realize just how much the people
were dissatisfied with his statement
that he would not again be a candi
date for office; and now it really
begins to look like the people are
not going to let him retire; for from
all over the seventh congressional
district of Georgia comes almost a de
xnand from the voters that he again
make the race and permit the people
to send him back to congress to com
plete the great work he is now doing.
Several of the counties in the dis
trict have begged Mr. Lee to again
offer for congress; and in order to
see how the people of this county
stand. The Citizen sent out a number
of letters recently to sound the peo
ple. Replies received showed that the
county is almost solid for Mr. Lee if
ne can be persuaded to reconsider his
former statement.
A monster petition is being circu
lated in the county and is being
fated in the county and is being
Signed by hundreds of voters. From
comes the information to the Citizen
district after district in this county
that the people are squarely in line
and will carry this county for him
if he can be persuaded to run.
The petition is addressed ot Mr. Lee
himself, and is worded as follows:
Hon. Gordon Lee, Chickamauga, Ga.
Dear Sir:—We. the undersigned
citizens of Whitfield county, recogniz
ing your valuable service to this dis
trict since being in congress, and be
ll. ring that your experience and fa
miliarity with legislation pending at
this t;me would enable you to render
even better service In the future, ear
nestly request that you reconsider
your intention not to run again, so
that the country may have the bene
fit of your services longer.
When the petition is signed by all
of the citizens oft he county who want
to see Mr. Lee remain in congress and
is then forwarded to him, he is going
to find that Whitfield county is lined
up with the other counties who are
almost demanding that he again make 1
the race.
Mr. Lee is placed in a peculiar po
sition. That he fully intended to
make his latest race for congress his
last one no one doubts; but whether
or not he will be permitted by the peo
ph- to retire is another question. That
Mr. Lee is one of the most popular
congressmen this district has ever
had is true, and, which he is a man
who is personally admired and liked,
still it is the great amount of work
h - has done icr his district that is
causing the people to insist on his
r< tai ling ins seat m congress
That Mr. Lee is in a position to do
much more for his district if he re
mains in congress was evidenced by
the words of the various congressmen
who spoke at a banquet of the Mer
chants and Manufactures’ Club at
Rome several months ago. These
congressmen wen, acquainted with
Mr. Lee's statement that be wouldn’t
.again offer for congress, and they all
said, in their addressees, that the dis
trict would make the biggest kind
of a mistake to lose the services of
Gordon Lee at this time.
If Mr. Lee persists in retiring from
congress he is going to find thousands
of people in the seventh district using
force if necessary to push him into
the race for congress at the next pri
mary.

SHOULD USE HEAVY BAGGING.
Here Is Something For the Farmers
to Think About.
It is worth remembering that bet
ter bagging will not only pay in oth
er ways, but by giving a neater ap
pearance to the bale is almost sure
to secure a better price for the cot
; ton. Discussing this subject a writ
i er in the Cotton Journal says;
“So long as the present plan pre
vails farmers should make it a point
to buy the heaviest bagging sold, and
put on each bale every pound of tare
I to which the cotton is entitled under
[ the rule of deducting 6 per cent, of
the gross weight for covering. A
bale weighing 600 pounds is entitled
'to 36 pounds of bagging and ties,
while a bale weighing 400 pounds
would be entitled to only 24 pounds.
Light, flimsy bagging, or second bag
ging, should not be used. Every sar
i mer should buy new bagging wegihing
2 1-2 pounds to the yard, and put on
8 yards and 6 bands for each 500-lb.
bale. If the buying world insists upon
deducting 6 per cent, from the gross
weight for tare then put on the tare
to the full limit, because bagging and
ties are much cheaper under such
conditions than lint cotton.
