! ions which place onerous burdens
upon those who have determined to
make Maryland their future home in
requiring them to journey to the
county seat at great expense of
time and money and register their
intention of becoming citizens a year
before they can exercise the right of
suffrage, Notwithstanding the fact
that they have complied with the
constitutional provision which re-
quire a residence of one year in the
State.
