The New Election Law.
The new election law, under which
a new registration is ordered in New
Hanover county,, is an important
one. No registration shall be valid
unless it specifies as near as may be
the age, occupation, place of birth
and place of residence of the elector,
as well as the township or county
from whence the -elector has remov
edin the event of a removal and
the full name bv which the , voter is
known. 1 - '
The registraticn books are to be
open for inspection and challenge
on the second Saturday preceding
the election. . -
Section 2GS1 is amended to read:
Upon the request of any elector
the registrar shall reqnire an appli-.
cant (for registration) to prove his
identity, or. age and residence by
such-testimony under oath as may
be satisfactory to the registrar. The
registrar shall record the name, age,
occupation, place of birth and! place
of residence of the elector, and the
name of the to wnship orcounty from
which the elector has removed in
the event of a removal also the
date of registration, in the appropri
ate column of the registration book,
Section 2GS2 is amended so that the
registrar is to put on his book on
the day of election any becoming of
ago since the books were closed,
provided he be found otherwise en-:
titled to vote. Section 26S8 is amend
ed as follows: Each box is to be
labelled in plain and distinct Roman
letters with the name of the office or
offices to be voted for. The majority
of the judges of election for the
county and State offices may rail
off a space or enclosure as a polling
place to hold the election for State
and county offices. Only one voter
shall be allowed to enter at a time

tion shall be allowed to speak to
him or interfere with him while

I
voter himself and by the judges at'
the request of theV voter. A similar
but separate polling place may, be
railed off for Congressional and
Presidential elections In such

deputy registrar for that , separate
I polling place, to vhom shall be fur

titled to vote, aud the judges or m-
t pec tors of election for that polling
