UW CAUSES DISPUTES
REGISTRATION ACT EXPLAINED
.FOR BENEFIT OF WOMEN.
Deputy Clerk Prepares Digest In. Effort
to Avert Arguments Due to Elect
ors Misunderstanding Statute. '
The details of registration are slight
ly different from what they always
have been, and many questions are
asked the registration officials each
day. Often it is hard to explain fea
tures of the law to voters seeking to
register. Differences of opinion be
tween the officials as to what the law
requires and what the voters think It
should require leads to many argu
ments. Fortunately the voters generally ac
cept the officials' interpretation, regis
ter and leave. But there are a few
who persist in their belief after the
law has been read to them, and either
Tefuse to register or register under
protest, as It were, and leave In a
huff.
More trouble is caused by failure to
bring proper legal proof of citizenship
than from any other single cause.
Many naturalized citizens think that
because they have shown their regis
tration papers at a previous registra
tion they do not have to show them
now. But the statute provides that
before an elector can register he must
submit evidence of his citizenship to
the registration official. .
This same rule applies, without ex
ception, to wives and children of nat
uralized men. Many citizens have ac
quired citizenship through the natural
ization of their parents or husband.
The mere knowledge one may have of
his or her citizenship, through this
method, is not sufficient for the regis
tration clerks. They must have legal
evidence.
Little trouble is caused by the men
In any way except their failure or re
fusal to exhibit naturalization papers.
But with the women it is different
Registration clerks say many of them
think they should be permitted to give
only the information they think neces
sary. Many become impatient when,
after they have stated to a clerk that
they wish to register, further ques
tions are asked.
Qualifications under which women
may register are a little more compli
cated than those for men.
For the convenience of the women
voters Deputy Clerk Tregilgas has pre
pared the following digest of the quali
fication laws, which determine what
women may register:
Those born in the. United States.
Those born of American parents
while temporarily sojourning abroad.
Those born in foreign countries,
whose fathers were naturalized before
the elector became 21 years old, but
only on display of father's naturaliza
tion papers.
Those who have taken out natural
ization papers of their own. provided
their first papers are one year old.
Those born In foreign countries,
inarriea xo nusDancs Corn in the
United States, by giving town, county
and state where husband was born
and, if possible, the date of his birth.
Those born in foreign countries,
married to husbands born In foreign
countries, but whose husbands have
been naturalized, by displaying legal
proof of the husband's naturalization.

Convicted of Killing Girl.

M. Frank; under sentence of death for
the murder of Mary Phagan, 14-year-old
employe- of a pencil factory, of
which Frank was superintendent, were

"It would be unfair to hang a sheep
killing dog on the evidence upon which
Frank has been convicted," said one.
Another said Frank should have a
second trial, "because of the apparent
insufficiency of the evidence under
which he was convicted.

FIGHT FOR CARS PUSHED
East Burnside 3Ien to Appeal to
State Kailroad Commission.
Business men on East Burnside street
and vicinity have decided to submit
the question of more streetcars over
the Burnside bridge to the considera
tion of the State Railroad Commission.
Petitions asking the Commissioners to
investigate the situation have been pre
pared and will be circulated in the dis
trict affected by the recent rerout
ing of the streetcars. Assurances
were received that the Commissioners
would consider the question before this
action was decided on.
Manager Hild, of the Portland Rail
way, Light & Power Company, sug
gested that the matter be submitted
to the Railroad Commission when he
was interviewed some time ago.
Patrons - of the Woodlawn and
Alberta carlines have protested putting
those lines back on Burnside bridge,
but business men hope to have the
route of the Russell-Shaver line
changed to pass East Burnside street
and Union avenue and also to get an
other carllne over the bridge.
