registration of all voters in Montgom-

stopping the practice of men coming
across the border to vote. The bill
was amended and reamended before it
finally passed and now the attorney
general decides that it must be con-
structed to cover the whole state, and
all who would vote in Kansas must
register when the township trustees
make their annual tax assessments.
