SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY.
Mr.. Park Marshall, Chairman Of the
Commissioners of Elections, has is
sued the following which should be
read carefully:
ITO the Judges of Election-When
a man offers to vote on his property
qualification on the city bonds and
franchise questions and you find him
qualified, let him first fold his ballot
backward at the place just below the
name of the last candidate, so as to
show the judges all that part of the
ballot where the names Of the candi-
dates appear, and show the judges
that no name is marked but no part
of the rest of the ballot shall be
shown. Let the ballot then be refold-
ed in the usual manner and voted
without being taken away from the
immediate presence Of the judges.
"At the same time let the clerks
enter the name Of the voter, and write
after his name the words "City Only"
"No one voting on his property quail
ifications can vote for any candidate
at the same voting place.
Some Laws on the Subject.
"First-No person living in any
ward of the city and being a gen.
eral voter in any ward, can vote in
any ward on property qualification,
for he should vote in his residence
ward on his general qualifications
Nor can anyone vote in the city on
property qualification unless he be
resident of Davidson County for six
months, and of the state twelve
months.
"Second-The voter must be duly
registered on his property qualifica-
tion, and can vote in only one ward.
"Third-He must have owned real
estate twelve months in the ward
when and where he votes.
"Fourth-He must have paid poll
tax as other voters must.
'Fifth-If you mark voted on his
tax receipt, add the words City

"Sixth-If a man vote in the city
on his property qualification he may
afterwards vote at his country pre-
cinct for the candidates; and If a
voter first vote at his country pre-
cinct for the candidates, he may aft
erwards vote in the city on his prop
orty qualifications. The elections on
bonds and franchise on the one hand,
and for candidates on the other, are
different elections, and for different
purposes, though held at the same
time. ,,n~ &
"Seventh-It is not unlawful to
show an unmarked ballot to the
Judges In case like this one.
