Speaking to 8 prominent local attorney last evening in reference to the qualifications of vot- CTS at the coming election he expressed his opin- ion that since there was an irreconciliable con- flict between the qualifications prescribed in our organic act and the act of the last territorial leg isature contained in the session laws at page 55, chapter 9. approved April 27. 1915, it might be we'll to take up the question before it is too late.
 The qualifications of a voter prescribed by our organic act are as follows: Must be citizen of the United States over the age of 21 and must have resided in the territory one year and thirty days in the percinct in which he shall vote. The territorial act covers the first three requirements but the irreconciliable conflict comes in the fourth The organic act says thirty days in the precinct and the territorial act says thirty days in the JUDICIAL division For instance: :: Supp0sing voter has resided in ketchikan one year. The day before election he moves to Had ley. according to our organic act he loses his right to vote Under the territorial act. how ever, his right to vote still obtain Obviously, our legislature intended to correct this conflict and inserted in the act the following: Section 41-An acts or parts of acts in conflict with this act are hereby repealed insofar as they affect this act"
 Now. the question hinges on whether the ter ritorial legislature had the power to repeal the organic act. Had it?
