ALL MAY VOTE.
Primary Law Does Not Affect Regis
tration.

Primary Law Does Not Affect Regis
tration.
Another opinion on the new direct
primary law has been rendered by
Attorney General John D. Atkinson.
in which he says:
"Section . of the new primary act
provides that every qualified person,
properly registered as a voter in the
election precinct enabling him to vote
a. the ensuing election where regis
tration is required, shall be entitled
TO participate in the primary cleo
ton
There is nothing. as far as we
are able to find, in the primary law
which in any way modifes the exist
ing law relative to the registration Of
voters, and for that reason such laws
must still be in force. Under the
rule laid down In Ballinger's code
1870, that in computing the time In
which an act prescribed by law is to
be done, the same shall be computed
by excluding the first and including
the last day; the last day upon which
registration should be permitted In
the case OF the next ensuing city cleo
ton in December, will be November
10, 1907.
This will bring the last day OF
registration six days before the day
fixed by law for the primary election
for such municipal elections. which
is November 10, 1907"
