AN INTERFERING QUESTION.

The Duties of tho Registrars Discussed in
the Hastings Court
An interesting legal question will
come up in the Hastings Court to day,
involving the question OF the duties OF
the registrars of election in tho matter
OF keeping open the books previous to
the regular registration day, which Is
ten days before each general election.
William Patterson, colored, applied
to Oscar D. Derr. the registrar for the
First ward, for registration. Mr.. Derr
informed him that the books were not
ready.
1t is stated that II. NJ, Woods, who
accompanied the colored man, then
asked Mr.. Derr when the books would
be ready and Mr.. Derr replied that he
did not know whether or not thew would
be ready before the regular registration
day. Patterson then, through his coun-
sci, j. Hampton Hoge, prepared petit
ton for mandamus to compel the
registrar to open tho books. The petit
ton will be presented before the Hust-
ings Court to-day.
