Every fusion officer in the state house
has had his salary warrants registered

because the law entitled him to do so.

The contention over the question as TO
whether women desiring to vote ut the
coming school election must register
their names the same as male voters has
brought out Il diversity of opinion. The
state superintendent of public instruc-
tion contends that women must register
hereafter before they can be allowed to
vote at school elections III towns where
registration of voters Is required The
city attorney of Omaha gives it as his
opinion that women have Il right to vote
for members of the school board without
registration. This opinion seems to us
to be sound While it is true that the
amended school law contemplates the
registration of women, the law prescrib-
ing the mode of registration, questions
to be asked each voter and the recording
of the answers makes no reference TO
the qualifications of women, nor do the
blanks furnished each registrar include
columns where the qualifications OF
women voters are to be recorded. Reg-
istrars may ask the questions whether
the woman applying for registration is
of children of school aGe, or whether
she pays taxes on realty in her own
name, which, by the way, is question
at variance with our system of suffrage
and in conflict with the spirit if not the
letter of the constitution
But there is no place provided on the
registration books where these responses
are to be recorded. All the registrars
could do is to ask the questions, reg
lister the names of those who are electors
and their places of residence for con-
venience Such registration would of
course prevent repeating and would re-
lieve the judges of election from asking
the questions on election day. But that
kind of registration would leave no rec
ord of the legal qualification of women
voters, which is one of the principal OBJ
jects of registration. Another point
against the theory of the state superin-
| tendent is that the registrars have no
/ right to subject women to Il cross-eXami-
nation as regards their nativity, race,
| age and naturalization, which must be
asked of every male voter Foreign
| born men are required to exhibit theil
naturalization papers, while foreign-born
women are not required to establish citl
zenship providing they are the mothers
of children of school age or owners OF
real estate within the school district. II
stands to reason, therefore, that before
women shall be compelled to register the
registration laws must be amended sc
| that books and blanks expressly de
signed to cover the qualifications OF
| women voters are provided. In the
meantime women who present them
selves at the booths prepared to estab
lish their right to vote at school elec
tions under oath before the election
board will be permitted TO exercise tha
right without previous registration.
