WOMEN WHO MARRY FOR
EIGNERS LOSE VOTE IN CO.
Also Forfeit Right to Vote in State
and DiscIaim All Citizenship in
This County Unless Husband De-
cIares Allegiance.

Does woman citizen of the United
States lose her franchise when she
weds an alien, is question which has
caused great deal of discussion on
the streets of late.
Judge Fred Suffer of Bisbee stated
this week that by marrying a foreign
er an American woman citizen for
feits her right to vote in this or any
other state in the union.
He states The statute book of Ari-
IONA, article %, section 70, provides,
that every citizen of the United
States, who has reached 81 years of
age, who shall have become a resident
of the state for one year next pre-
ceeding the election and of the coun-
ty and precinct for 80 days, shall be
entitled to vote.
He further states "An act of con-
gress, March 2, 1907, provides that
any American woman who marries a
foreigner shall take the nationality
of her husband. This act was sus-
tanned by the federal court in the year
1908, and holds withstanding the fact
hat both continue to live in the
United States.
This fact was the cause of many
in courts before 1907, and
decisions were rendered on either side
If the question, but congress took the
natter up and settled it once for all.
