Superintendent Molina last night:
"Who cannot voter
mo one who has not registered"
Can person who became of age after
the registry cast voter
mo. He could have registered in antici-
patton Of his becoming of age, but to regis
ter is as much qualification to vote as to
have paid taxes or be of age. The original
registry is used at this election 1t is for the
purpose of proving the identity of voter
when it is questioned. For example: A
person applies TO vote and his vote is chal-
lenged ON the ground that he is not the per-
son he represents himself to be- The origi-
nal registry is then examined, his name is
found, and if he answers the questions as to
his age, occupation and residence, to CORE
spond with the entry on the registry his
vote is taken, otherwise it is rejected.
The oath to be administered to chal-
lenged voters, and which clearly describes
the qualification of voter, not including
the local registry, which is also necessary
qualification, is as follows: L do swear
Tor affirm that l am 81 years of age,
have resided in this state one year and in
this county six month next preceding this
election. | have paid all taxes which, since
the adoption of the present constitution of
this state have been required of me pre-
vious to this year, and which have had an
opportunity TO pay, and have not voted at
this election.'n
