TO THE VOTERS OF
LINCOLN COUNTY.

Please take notice of the follow
ing extract from a Montana law:
Sec. 4, Par. 5, Article 16-Mon-
tana Constitution" that no
one shall be elected as member of
said board County commissioners
who has not resided in said dis
trict for at least two years next pre-
ceding the time when he shall be-
come a candidate for such office
Some people have the opinion that
MIR Chef O. Hoisington is qualified
for the office of County Commission
er for the Troy District and that he
was tried on that in the District
Court. It was not on the grounds
of qualification he was tried but in
stead, on the grounds of residence
Also. man cannot be disqualified
from an office until he has been
elected, and of course think Mr.
Hoisington will be disqualified il
he is elected and tries to take of
flee.
According to the law anyone has
the right to run for any office in
the county but after election he
must show that he has lived up to
the law regarding qualifications and
residence.
Mr.. Hoisington registered in Lib
by. Montana, which the records in
the County Clerk and Recorders of
flee show, and when he did that, he
registered right, but when he
changed his registration back to
the Troy District he violated the reg
istration law by not moving back.
He cannot reside in Libby and reside
in Troy at the same time, because
the law says.
The place where a mans family
resides is presumed his place OF
residence. Mr. Hoisingtons fam
lily lives in Libby
There are two more candidates
from the Troy District for which
you can vote so DON'T VOTE FOR
HOISINGTON = Give TROY a
