tions. Sheriff II. o. Gray and Alfred
Sellgman, the two Republican mem
bers OF the jefferson County Elec-
tion Commission, a majority, have an
nounced that they would not recog-
nize any appointments of Democratic
registration clerks for the coming re-
gistration unless they were bona fide
voters in the precincts in which they
are named
George Ewald, the Democratic
member, refused to sign the ultima
tum issued by the Republican mem
beers. saying he took a different view
of the new law.
The redistricting of the county and
city into new ward and precinct
boundaries under the direction Of
Judge Tincher is already in the
courts and the appointment by the
Democratic organization of registra-
ton clerks, nonresidents of certain
precincts II is said is sure to follow
with further court proceedings.
The cause for this, according to
the Democratic organization, was
brought about for the reason that the
Redistricting Committee made ridi-
culously small precincts where there
was a big negro vote and in many Of
them there are no Democrats aVaila-
BILE to serve either as registration
clerks or election officers.
The legal question involved is
whether a registration is an election,
which under the Constitution requir-
es that an officer of election must re-
side in the precinct where he votes.
Another question involved and
which the Republican members of the
Election Commission invites the
Democrats to carry to the courts is
that in which the new registration
law prohibit san officeholder from
serving as a clerk and also disquali-
flies a registration clerk from holding
or being appointed to public office
within a year from the time OF his
serving as such registration clerk.

VICTORY won BY
TAX Commission
Has Right Of Reassessment
Of Counties, Circuit
Judge Rules

Lexington, Ky, June 14.-Circuit
Judge r. c. Stoll handed down a de-
cision tonight shortly after o'clock
in the agreed suit filed by attorneys
for Fayette county and the state tax
commission, holding that the commits
sion had the power to order and make
reassessment of the county's proper
ty.
While FayAtts county thus loses
the first step in the legal fight
against the state tax commission
and its alleged arbitrary powers,
certain restrictions were placed on
the commission ~ Judge Stoll. It
was ruled that the commission could
not make a reassessment which would
total greater amount than the origi
nal increase ordered by the commits
sion; and, that any cost which may
accrue from making the reassessment
must be borne by the commission, as
it could not contract any obligation
on behalf of the county. It is also re-
quested that should the commission
make reassessment, it must notify
every taxpayer in the county of an
Increase which may be made in the
value of his property and the date
and place, where the taxpayer may
make protest against an increase in
his assessment, must be provided by
the commission.
The decision was handed down
after discussion between attorneys
for the county and the commission
which lasted throughout the after
noon.
