SAVANNAH. July 2S.-EditOr Morning
Ne1rs: Will you kindly inform me through
the columns OF your paper how long
person must be a resident Of this state
before he can cast his vote for President!
Or has every citizen right 10 vote IN
Presidential elections wherever he may
hanpen TO beY STRANGER.
The qualifications of voters are thus
defined in article H., section l, paragraph
IL, Of the constitution of Georgia: Every
male citizen Of the United States except
as hereinafter provided), twenty-one
years Of age, who shall have resided with
in this State one year next preceding the
election, and shall have resided six
months within the county in which he
offers TO vote. and shall have paid all
taxes which may hereafter (1s77) be re-
quired Of him, and which he may have
had an opportunity Of paying, agreeably
to law, except for the year of the cleo
ton, shall be deemed an elector; FRO
Uided. that no soldier, sailor, or marine In
the military or naval service Of the United
States shall acquire the rights of an cleo
tor by reason of being stationed on duty
in this State"
No one has the right to vote for Presi-
dent, Congressman, or any other ofhcer,
or on any question, except in the county
Of his residence. There is very popu-
lar error that a citizen may vote for Presi-
dent in whatever part Of the Union he
may happen to be on the day of election,
and that he may vote for Congressman in
any part Of the Congressional District in
which he resides. There are good reasons
for the law requiring every one to vote in
the county of his residence, for there he
is known, and if he be disqualified for any
of the reasons indicated in the above Sec
ton, or for crime. there is every opportu-
nifty for the fact to be developed, and his
vote challenged, or thrown out as illegal.
Otherwise a wide door would be opened
to frauds which it Would be almost i'm
possible to guard against, or undo after
preparation.
Of course, a person moving into the
State within a year, or into the county in
which he resides within six months of an
election, loses his right to vote at that
election. Neither can he vote at the place
of his former residence or elsewhere.
Persons DISTINGUISHED in this State are
''those who shall Lave been convicted, in
ally court of competent jurisdiction, of
treason against the State, of embezzle-
ment of public funds, malfeasance in
office, bribery or larceny, or of any crime
involving moral turpitude, punishable by
the Iaws7of this State with Imprisonment
in the penitentiary, unless such person
shall have been pardoned." Idiots and
insane persons are also DISTINGUISHED.

For the Georgia Republicans.

The Republican party Of Georgia Will never
be either influential or respectable until 1t
ceases to be managed from Washington as
part of the machinery for turning out dele
gates to the order Of an administration de-
sirous of being its own successor. The re-
moval of Gen. LOngstreet from the office OF
United States Marshal for that State to en-
able such a person as Col. John +. Bryant to
reap the reward of his success in sending a
solid Arthur delegation to Chicago is an act
well calculated to bring Repubhcanlsm into
Disgrace in Georgia.

Nearly every paper from the larger cities
complains about the filthy condition oil the
streets and lanes, and the danger from
endemic diseases. If these cities don't
clean up now and take extra precautions
without delay, they may be visited with
destructive diseases entirely independent
Of cholera, yellow fever, etc. 1t is worthy
81 remark that the Southern cities-almOst
without exceptiOn-are in better eondi-
ton. from a sanitary point Of view, than
they have been for years.

IIVtfIs
No marty which is corrupt. and which stead
fastlv dominates corrupt men for Office, can
go on forever. There must be change
finally. The DETECTION from Blaine has been
sudden. but the causes that led to it are found
in the lOnp-continued domination Of the Re-
publican party by men who were proved or
known to be corrupt. And nothing previous
to the selection of Mr.. Blaine as can
didate has been of greater effect toward de-
veloping the revolt we see now than the
nomination of James A. Garfield.
