TIE REGISTRATION QUESTIONS.
At the last meeting Of the Democratic
CITY Committee a subcommittee, consist
ING of MessrS. Jackson Guy. sol. CutchinS,
and b. Rand Wexford. were appointed TO
examine the laws and do what Is necessary
10 inform the party rs TO their rights and
duties with regard 10 transfers and regis
tration. The registrars here, under IN
structiOnS said To- have been given In Judge
Guigon's time, have always refused to reg
lister any person except on the day OF reg
istratiOn. From the law, rs 1t now ap-
pears, they should register voters " at any
time previous to the regular day" as well
aS on that day.
\ test-case will be carried before Judge
Atkins.
Judge GuigOn's decision, IL ever written
out, cannot he found, and the point is now
for the first time in dispute here.
As to transfers, the law. as understood by
our registrars, is that they may be given AT
any time, but IN tOlcaS and cities OF OUer
1000 Inhabitants can only be entered on
the regular day OF registration. In the
country they may be entered lat any
time.' As our registrars believe, man
who has a transfer from Hanover 10 Rich
mOnd can have il entered upon the book
here only on the regular day Of regiStra-
tion-that i, when the observation-disclosures
are open ten days previous to the election.
ON the other hand, a man can lat any
time" get transfer from Richmond to
Hanover, and his name can be entered by
the registrar at any time, or by one OF the
Judges on The day OF election"
A test case will also be made 10 decide
this question.
HANOVER AND CAROLINE.
Our friends are making a splendid cam
yass i'm the Hanover and Caroline senatorial
district. They viii poll their full vote.
That means that Wickham will be elected.
Hanover T. always anti-Mahone when the
issue is clearly made. Caroline, Of course,
cannot be looked to for rs large a majority
as Hanover, but VIII do very well. The
district was carried by Daniel and by
George Wise and Massey, and on neither
occasion was there much more than half
