The Registration La w.

Governor Bradford has written letter in
reply to one of inquiry from e. s. Parker,
Esq, one of the Registers of Baltimore city,
in which he very freely and explicitly gives
his Interpretation of several clauses in the
act Of Registration, and Of that part of the
State Constitution relating to the elective
, franchise. While the Governor disavows
| any authoritative construction, he desires it
to be understood that he expresses his own
opinions in response to repeated questions
! from the Officers of Registration throughout
the State. In the propriety and correctness
of these views and explanations Attorney
General Randall fully concurs.
From the Baltimore American we take
the following excellent resume of the Gov
ernor's letter:
| From careful investigation of the mean
ing and intent of the Registration act, the
| Governor concludes that though there is no
express authority for the Boards to appoint
a clerk, the right is clearly implied by the
necessities that arise in the execution of the
law. Moreover, the said clerk would be
clearly entitled to compensation "to be pro-
yided in the same manner as that for the
| Oihcers Vi hegistrhtioh. IL ls also NAM
tanned that the boards have right to pro-
cure appropriate places for meeting, the re-
muncration therefor to be provided by the
county and city authorities.

we quote the unequivocal language of his
letter. For the reference and guidance of
the Registry Officers, so distinct an utterance
is very important. Says the Governor:
