I'RKI'ARINU KOR TIIS RUCTION—SOME VAI.-
VAUI.K MINTS.
Frm tlio Ollntiin llcmoorat.
The annual State election is coming
on apace, and as voters are one of the
products of this country either on lie
coming twenty one years of age, or by
naturalization, too much cannot be said
to direct rdl in the right and legal
channel, litis is neces.ary, that all
who are entitled to excrei-e the fran
chises nt a tree American cilucti should
know how to proceed intelligently ami
legally. Persons who want to vote at
the November election must he register
ed by September ','lh, two months (sixty
days) before the day of election, which
occurs November Mh, More: As all
parties must pay a tax within two
years, the I'th dsy of < iclober will be
the last ilay to pay a tax. Don't put it
off until the 10th! Vut may lose your
vote. Those who wish to vote the com
ing (all had better examine the list of
voters now in the hands of the Assessor
(or the one to be found at the election
house,) and see if their names are en
rolled. If not on the li-t, inform the
Assessor of the fact, and he will have to
register you. Too many, especially
young men, rely upon their right ami
privilege of swearing in their vote on
election day. This should not be, as it
takes too much time away from the
Flection Hoard. There is no sense in
the county employing a hail dozen men
to look alter your rights when you can
attend to it yourself so cheaply. Look
at the registry list now posted up at
your election house, and if your name
is not on it, "go for the assessor." and
don't bother the Flection Board with
that which you should attend to your
self.
Let us recapitulate. To qualify a
man to vote he must possess the follow
ing qualifications, to wit:
Ist. He must be 21 years of age.
2d. He shall have been a citizen of
the United States at least one month.
3d. He shall have resided in the State
at least one year. The only exception
to this is where a qualified voter leaves
the State to reside elsewhere, upon his
return he wdl again be entitled to voio
after he resides in the State six months.
4th. He must have resided in the
district where he offers to vote at least
two months (sixty days) immediately
preceding the election.
slh. If 22 years of age or upwards he
must have paid a State or county tax
that shall hive been assessed at least
two months and paid at least one
month before the election. Courts have
repeatedly decided that no difference
when the tax was assessed lif even ten
or twenty years before) if it was pai.l
within two years of the election this
payment qualifies the elector to vote;
provided it have been assessed at least
sixty days before the election, and paid
one month before.
fith. The Courts also decide that thir
ty days are to be counted in all cases
as a month that that is the legal sig
nification of the term "month."
7th. The voter should be registered
at least two months before the elect! >n.
This saves all trouble alx>ul the right
to vote, except upon challenge when
want of a qualification may be shown.
But an otherwise qualified voter cannot
be debarred from voting because not
registered. In ruck c.ie however, he
is required to make oath, prove citizen
ship, even if well known, by another
person as witness, and submit to trouble
some details,
fttb. The easy and proper way is to
pay whatever State or county tax is due
and be registered. Then it the voter
has resided sixty day* in the district,
been a citizen et the United States for
one month, of the Stale for one year
and is upwards of 21 years of age he
oannot be prevented from voting.
t*th. A person between 21 and 22
years of age can vote without the pay
ment of taxes, but lie must possess all
the other qualifications enumerated.

Ti|e contest for Hovernor of Virginia
places the Democratic parly on high
ground, and the attempt to consolidate
the colored voters on the basis of !'.e
pudiation, and to make the Hepublirtn
party responsible for that dogma, is sure
to end in disgrace. The Washington
