the clerk shall inquire of the per-
son offering to vote his political
affiliations, and the person offer
ing to vote may be sworn as to
whether or not he supported the

800 is provided against the Off
Ger of the election for knowingly
permitting a person to vote a
ticket of the party other than
the one which the voter support
ed at the last general election.
The voter is subject to a fine of
500 for voting ticket that he
is not qualified to vote: under
this law.

Democratic Officers and the Dem
ocrats were undertaking to make
a law beneficial to their party and
to keep the Republicans in the
Democratic counties from voting
the Democratic Ballot in the
Primary Election. If there is
any cussing to be done by our
Knox county Democrats let them
cuss the Democrats that made
the law. We don't cuss, but go
ahead and cuss them any how.

THE editor has repeatedly said
in these columns, that this paper
was open to all candidates in the
Republican Primary for their adj
vertisement as provided by the
Federal Law. We are not I'M
dertaking to say through the
columns of this paper who shall
be nominated as that is a ques-
ton for the voters to decide in
this primary. 1t is our purpose
as a newspaper to give such
information concerning the Pri-
mary Election, as will aid the
voters to understand the manner
in which a Primary Election
shall be conducted. The Editor
has been asked by a large num-
Der of persons whether or not
Democratic voters will be allow

lican Ballot. We do not under
take to answer this question, eX-
cept to state the law as we I'M
derstand it in this regard:
Section 1856. Sub-Sec. 10, pro-
vides before a person shall be
qualified to vote in the Primary
Election, that he shall possess
all qualifications now prescribed
by the constitution as to voters
in the regular election, and in
addition to said qualifications the
person offering to vote must be
a member Of the party for whose
nominees he intends to cast his
vote, and shall have affiliated
with said party and supported
its nominees and no person shall
be deemed to have affiliated with
the party in whose primary he
seeks to cast his vote, if he vot-
ed against the nominees of such
party at the last General Elec-
ton.
