His letter Is in part as follows: "I am a registered voter of the city of Portland and have realded here con tinuously since the eighteenth of laat August. I registered-at the primaries from my home. No. 41 North Second street on the nineteenth of May. - I changed my residence ". to the Geneva house, Sixth and Flanders,-a-the sec ond of June. I went to the courthouse to give notification of my change of residence and waa told by the official In charge that the books had been taken to the polling booths and to vote from my old residence. On the morning of election I repaired to the voting pre cinct to do what every American, cltl en consJderaone of . hts. piiyileges. 1 waa promptly, challenged and told to go to the booth In the precinct I now rf ide In. I went I did not vote. "I was again challenged, and told that tf -I got six realty owners to swear to my right' to vote my ballot would be accepted, even If I was not on the books In their booth. At i p. m. I went back to the booth that had my nam on Its books and demanded a bal lot, saying I would swear to what I have already stated. I was told that they had no time to bother - with It Then I demanded my rights as an un disfranchised American citlsen. I was ordered out of the booth by a long, lean, " hungry-looking Individual, who I suppose waa there to keep order or dis order.
