Why is ''This Thus .

Editors MtclHgcnccr:: I am aresiatered
voter of Anderson County. My name is
on the club roll at Bolton. Parties who
are better informed upon the subject than
am, told me that had the right to vote
for Senator and Congressman, in the pri-
mary election, at any polling precinct in
Anderson County. On Tuesday the man.
ayers at the polls refused to allow me- to
Tote because nv name was on no Ander-
son club list. Were they right? Daring
the present condition Of politics in The
State, it is really not a matter of any great
moment to me whether vote or not, but
if my rights as voter have been trampled
on want to kick-emphatically.
