taken by the Republican inspectors Of election relative
to tho right N persons to vote on November d. III
the manual Of election laws there ls garoled con-
struoton Of decision given by Judge Patterson Oh
the Supreme Court and upon 1t is based the rule that
n voter must have lived thirty DAYS in an Assembly
district to cntitle him TO vote The law upon Wmch
this decision was mode is applicable all over the
State For instance, in the counties OF Fulton and
Hamilton which comprise one Assembly district under
the construction of this law voter might move from
one county to the other and vote after having hVea
there thirty days notwithstanding the fact that the
law also saws that voter must have lived four months
in a county to qualify him to cast his ballot
The Republican inspectors contcnded that the law
meant that the voter must have lived thirty gays
in an election district and had nothing to do with his
having lived In an Assembly district This contention
was upheld by Judge DugrO in decision given IaSt
