Are You Qualified ?
Under the new law no one eacepi
qualified electors can be candidates
for office; a qualified elector, as our
ready ra know. is one who is qialifie I
!o vote-that is. who is regisiteiwd
sod holds his poll tax receipts for
two consecutive years prior to the
time offering to tote. One can have
paid the poll tax anywhere in the
State, but must have resided in the
State two years and parish one year
before offenng to vote. It a person
has actually lived and paid his polt
tax in a perish for one year, some
lawyers assert that, according to the
parish, must live io the parish one
year before he becomes a bonaSfie
retideut, eligible to hold office in the
last parish. However that may be,
it is certain no person can hold office
who is not a duly qualified elector.
This applies to all alike. fMoto the
