GIN REGISTER NOW
FOR 1910 ELECTION
Under the new registration act
unless a citizen pays his taxes and
gets his name on the registration
list between October 1, 1909, and
April 1, 1910, he will be debarred
from participating in any election,
be it primary county or general,
to be held next year.
As 1910 is a general election year
when everthing in Georgia from a
governor to a coroner is elected, it
will be seen that it is important that
every citizen get on the registered
voter's list during the coming six
months.
The new law provides that until
six months before a general election,
which is practically April first, the
collector shall place a man’s name
ion the voters’ list when his taxes
are paid, if he requests that it be
I done.
Il then becomes the duty of the
lax collector to prepare within the
next ten days and file with the county
! registrars an accurate and complete
list of all names signed in the voters
books after he opened the tax books
on October 1st —this list to be ar
ranged in alphabetical order by mill-
I tia districts or wards.
Two Lists For Registars.
Before the twentieth of April the
tax collector, the clerk of the su
; perior court and the ordinary shall
prepare a list of all persons living
in the county on April 10th of that I
year who appear to be disqualified!
from voting, and this list, alphabet!-;
cally arranged, shall also be filed;
with the registrars.
The registrars will then have be-I
fore them the two complete lists, one
of them showing the names of those
I who, by appearing on the registra
tion list have a prlma facie right to
vote.
This is supplemented and checked ,
against, as it were, by a list of those
who appear to be disqualified.
The registrars are then given forty
days, or until June Ist, In which to
purge and . vertify the disqualified
voters.
Open to Public Inspection.
This list is to be open to public I
inspection and the right of any one I
whose name appears thereon to vote j
may be challenged by any citizen j
of the county. The grounds of this ■
challenge must be stated, and wheth- >
er questioned by a private citizen or
by the registrars themselves, the
challenged party shall be notified to
that effect, with the grounds of the
challenge, and shall have a right to
be heard.
Finally, five days after the regis
tration list has been completed an
accurate list, alphabetically arranged
according to wards or malitia dis
tricts, shall be filed with the clerk
of the superior court.
The qualified voter, whose name
appears ou this list, will be entitled
to vote, not only at the general elec
tion, iu the fall, but at any primary
to nominate candidates for that gen
eral election.
Confusing Ideas.
As the law is a new one and many
conflicting ideas about it exist in the
minds of voters some of the salient
provisions of the act are published
here. To begin with, the tax collec
tor opens the registration books at
the same time he opens the books
for the collection of state and county
taxes.
When the Books Close.
Each "year iu which there is a
general election to be held for the
election of governor and members
of the general assembly" he shall
"dose said voters’ books for said
election six months before the date
of said general election, and no one
shall be allowed to register for said
election unless he shall have paid
all taxes due by him at least six
months before the date of the general
j election.”
To entitle a person to register and
! vote at any election by the people
"he shall have resided in the state
■ one year next preceding the election,
and in the county in which he offers
to vote six months next preceding the
' election, and he shall have paid all
taxes which-may have been required
jof him since the adoption of the con
stitution of Georgia of 1877 that he
' may have had an opportunity of pay
ing agreeable to law. Such payment
I must have been at least six months
prior to the election at which he of
! fers to vote, except when such elec
tions are held within six mouths,
from the expiration of the time fixed
!by law for the payment of such
' taxes.”
Disfranchisement Clause.
Follow ing is the "diafanchise
i meat” clause of the qualifications to
: register and vote: All persons who
j can correctly read in the English
language any paragraph of the con
stitution of the United States or of
this state and correctly write the
same in the English language when
read to them by one of the regis
trars, aud all persons who solely be
cause of physical disability are una
ble to comply with the above require
ments, but who can understand and
THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1909.
give a reasonable Interpretation of
of the United States or of this state,
that may be read to them by any one
of the registrars.
"Any person who is the owner in
good faith in his own right of at
least forty acres of land situated In
this state upon which he resides, or
is the owner in good faith in his own
right of property situated in this
state and assessed for taxation at the
value of $500.”
Must Appear in Person.
The new law imposes a strict duty
upon the clerk, who conducts the reg
istration, in the following language:
"The tax collector or his clerk shall
in no instance permit a person to
sign the voters’ books or any sepa
rate printed oath unless such person
shall have actually made the oath
before him therein contained, and a
violation of this section by either the
tax collector or his clerk shall con
stitute a misdemeanor.”
THE EDUCATIONAL SPECIAL
The College on Wheels Will Roll
Again Next Spring.
According to Commissioner of Ag
riculture T. G. Hudson, the “edu
cational special,” or the "agricultural
college on wheels," which made such !
a succesful tour of the state in
1908, will make a similar tour soon
after the first of the year. In speak
ing of this matter Colonel Hudson
said:
“So far as I know at the present I
the educational special operated in
1908 will make another tour of the!
' state next year. I am heartily in
j favor of the plan, and think Dr.
Soule and the board of trustees of the j
State Agricultural College will ad-
■ vocate the plan also.”
From the above it would seem ■
i that this “agricultural college on j
wheels” Is practically an assured
fact. It is expected that the tour
will begin the latter part of January I
or early In February, and will travel
! constantly until tho later part of!
i March or the first of April.
The railways of the state have al
ways co-operated with board of trus
tees on these specials, and provide
I a special train which will make stope
■ at each town and allow brief lectures ■
i to be made there by some represents |
' tive of the department of agricul-1
■ ture, from the corps of profsseors of j
I the agricultural college and some!
j representatives of the Cotton Seed !
I Crushers’ Association of Georgia, I
I who will give brief talks on the uses
and values of cotton seed products.

CHECKS UNDER $1 NO GOOD.
Congress Will be Appealed to Change
Laws's Application.
A Washington dispatch says: Sec
retary McVeagh of the treasury de
partment and Attorney General
Wickersham are being appealed to
by congressmen from various sec- j
tions of the country for interpreta
tion of the law making it an offense I
to circulate checks of sums less than
sl. The wording of section 178 of
the penal laws, approved March 4, !
1909, is generally interpreted to
mean that after January, 1910, it I
will be unlawful to write a check
for a sum less than sl, to be cir
culated as money or intended to be
received or used in lieu of lawful
money.
The protests largely come from
the big mail order houses, although
merchants all over the country have
joined in the demand that congress
at the next session amend the sec
tion so as to eliminate its applica
tion to checks.
