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. BOTH BOYS SAVED.

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.
