THEY LIVE IN THE COUNTRY.

Citize ans Residing South Of Anderson
street Cannot Vote in City Blec-
lions.
An inquiry has been made Of the MORN
ING News by a resident living south of
Anderson street whether the residents
south Of that street OF voting age would
be allowed to vote at the coming municipal
election
This is becoming a serious question with
the voters living in that section, whose
number has largely increased in TIL last two
years While no authoritative opinion was
secured yesterday, the general consensus
WAS that the residents south Of Anderson
street would not be able to participate in
the next municipal election.
The reasons given for this opinion seem
to be conclusive In the first place the dis
triot south of nderson street is not In the
city lroper and will not be until the ex>
pl alton Of the ten years limit at the end of
which 1t is TO become part of the city. The
city at present has only jurisdiotional
powers over that section. It can levy no
taxes. The place does not become part Of
the city aud is not subject to taxation until
the streets have been extended through 1t
and lights and drainage provided and police
cotton afforded.
If the Residents south of Anderson street
did not pay taxes how can they expect TO

istratIon law. the voters regleter IN the dis
