Treasurer of Dickinson county Noah j..
Buchanan. In preparing list OF the
voters who had paid their poll taxes six
months prior to the election. as a&pre-
requisite 10 voting, as provided for by
law. Inadvertently left off the names of
fifty-two voters of the Cllntwood and
Kanady voting precincts, who had so
qualified. Duplicate lists were posted on
the 10th and 18th days of June, 1905. Now.
the law makes the following provisions in
such cases
within thirty days after the list has
been so posted, any person who sha..
have paid his capitatlon tax, but whose
name is omitted from the certified list,
may, after five days written notice to
the treasurer, apply to the Circuit Court
of his county or Corporation Court OF his
city, or the judge thereof In vacation.
to have the same corrected and his name
entered thereon, which application the
4 court or Judge shall hear and promptly
decide"
The Judge OF the Circuit Court OF
Dickinson county in vacation, on the
10th day OF June, 1905. on the application
Of the treasurer entered tho following
order, which was formally placed on the
court order book:
in vacation Of Dickinson county Cir
cult Court: This June 18th, 1905.
1T appearing from a letter, which is
hereby treated as a petition oil the treas
urer Of Dickinson county, that in making
out his list Of tho persons who had paid
their capitatlon tax prior to the 9th day
+ Of May, 1905. that he, by mistake failed
TO nut on said list the names above mem
( toned in said petitions: It Is therefore
ordered that said treasurer correct his
said list by adding said names to said
4 list.
Judge of Dickinson County Circuit Court.
Il "a copy--Testo:
"John NJ. skeen, Clerk"
It viii be noticed that the order SAYS
"the names above mentioned while
there la not name above the recorded
order, nor anywherL else CONNECTED In
any way with the order,
On July 18th twenty-three OF the voters
whose names had been left off the list
made n motion through an attorney
before Judge Skeen at Big Stone Gap to
have their names placed on the treas
urer's list, which motion was continued
Till July 18th, at a term OF Circuit Court
for Dickinson county, on which date the
court entered an order directing that
these names DO placed on the list. The
remainder of the flfty-tWo whose names
had been left off the list served notice
that they would make a like motion, hui
through mistake the notice OF .neir in-
tention was made returnable too late
to be heard within the thirty days after
The posting OF the list.
Thus there are twenty-nine voters Of
the Clintwood precinct whose names are
not on the treasurer's list, and who
under the law, will not be entitled to
vote at the coming election. Sy the way
they are all Democrats. The Republicans
having been more ylgllant, saved thell
4 men.

Enforce the Law
The Newport News Press quotes the
