" 7 . VAN llOCKkKS VS. CAJTADY. Our government is founded ,on Iho will of tli o neon le.-Their will Is ex- presseil by the ballot. The ballot em -m . braces every citizen twenty-one years old, 'who has had arcsidence in the State for twelve months and in the county, whero he oilers . to vote, for thirty days. Thoro is ;no other qualification requir ed Property qualification for voters and office-holders,' 'which our former Constitutions required, and which many thought important, have - passed away, and are now regarded ' as antiquated. Not only is freedom to vote and hold office secured in our present Constiiu- iou, but it is bo imbedded in the hearts of tho people, that it was thought neccs sary to stipulate against aiw interfer ence with it by a contemplated Couven tion to alter the Constitution. Tho act of the bust General Assembly calling a Convention has a provision that the Convention -'shall not require, or pro-. ose any educational or property quali- fication for ofiicc, or voting," and re- -a A a ' i A 1 A ouires tlie ueieirates 10 iaKO an oain iu observe it. Whether that is wise or unwise, the Court can give nopnuon. Our pro vince is to oxixuind the Constitution and laws as they aro made, and not to make them. Tho Constitution provides that every male person twenty-one years old, resi dent in tho State twelve months, and'iir tho county thirty days, shall be au elec tor Art, (I, sec. 1. , ' , An elector for what ? .The Constitu tion does not say for what. Does it mean, elector lor Prosideut, or for members of Congress, or for (Jovernor, or for Judges, or for members' of the Qencr.'il Assembly, or for county ofH- cers, or for township or town ollicers, or What else ? There it stands tiy itself without explanation-that every such person shall be an elector a voter. It evidontly moans to designato those per sons s a class, to vote generally when ever tho polls aro opened and elections held for anything connected with the general government, or the State or lo cal governments. Just as a class of per sons are designated as qualified for ju- rors.. .- ., ?'," And so in Art..7, sec. 1, it is provided that all county elections shall be by "the. qualified voters thereof.' But who are they T There is no way of determining. except to look back to the "class" de signated above. : ! - "il f J And so tho 5th section provides, that towuship elections shall be by the"qual-' ified voters thereof." And wo havo to - . - ' - i . looked to tho class to find out who they aro. , And so Art. 7, sec 7, provides, that no county, city, town, or, other municipal corporation shall contract any debt,tc, unless by a vote of a majority of the "qualified voters therein;' and we have to look to the class to find who they are. Here, counties, cities and towns are grouped together; and so are. their qualified voters. And except in this way there aro no qualifications pre scribed for voters in cities and towns. But cities and towns, like counties and townships, are pans and parcels of the State, organized for the convenience of local self-government. And the quali fications of their voters are tlie same. It follows, that the " General Assembly cannot in any way change the qualifi cations of voters in State, county, town ship, cky or town elections. And yet the act which wo are consid ering requires a residence of ninety days instead of thirty. And if the ninety days may bo required, a year, or years, may be. And so, in many of our young and grqwjng towns, a ma jority of the citizens maybe excluded, and tho government given to "the oldest inhabitants;' or, if long residence may be mado a qualificatiou, so it may be mado a disqualification, and then the government may bo "given to the youngest inhabitants. And so, if these qualifications may be added, then any others may; just as we" find that in one of the town charters ' granted by the last General Assembly it is provided, that, in addition to the citizens of the town, all persons who havo lied in the county twelve months "and4 who own taxable real estato in said town, who havo paid all tho taxes," etc., shall be allowed to vote. Acts 1874-'5, chap.. 157, Private Laws. Surely the Legislature had no power to put any portion of the people of the State uudersuch a govern ment. If they can do that then they can put Wilmington under the govern- ment of the land owners of New Ilan- over county. Ji li -A- For Illustration: a man presenU him self at a trtwn elcction 'and says, I have voted ia the State election, in the county election, in the townshiri election, and n0w:i:i want to j.vote in thoj town elec- tion, where -I have .lived ? thirty days. Ilia vote i rejected, because be baa not resided there1 ninety days;; J la' vain we look in the - Constitution for any such qualification. 'The General Assembly has disfranchised him, and that - iii a ciise which tomes much nearer home to him than, an v other election for the town government aJfecU his .business, trade, iurk-t( heal Ui " com fort, pleas ure taxi's, property ,an4 ieraon. ; : i We an f tho opinion that the quali fications for h voter in a city or town are, ciuz.;iK!iipt iwemy-ona yoars oi age, twi lvu" months, resilience in the State, nt id thifty days in the city or town. ..r ,11.. "A gain : Thu Act .provides that before an election there shall bo a regis tration of-voters, and only ' those who register, can von. The first- ward 4 made', a rtg-.tnvtio! nd election pro- Cinct; and o Avitli tint second. Tho third ward : is d i vided I by metes and bounds, into four nreciii-U..i Of course every voter miW regiterx-iii tho ward and in the precinct' when he 1 ivfcs, and in no other, and 'must' 'rote where ho registors, the" object being to prevent fraud by, -repeating."' IJ ut a largo por tion of the third vanl on the west side of the river was. bv mistake pro balU v. not Includetl in any f rthe precincts. And of.coursa ; they cannot register or vote. - And ' Perry vs; W hi taker 71 N. O. Rep.,; is an express- decision, that that mafkes the election void.' Indeed, it would seem that the regis tration provision for, such, parts of the lly as are'embraceil.are sa impractica- ble as to amount , to t-'p disfranchise ment, of thbvoters.. : The -Constitution ordains that ' the C en eral Asse m bly sh al 1 p ro vido' for the registration of voters, ami that lib one shall vote, without registration. (Art. 6, sec. 2. , This means that the General As- sombly shall provide the coilvenieuces and necessaries, i so that the yoters can register; hit is to facilitate; the exercise of tho right of the ballot ; and not to de feat it.1 It is true that this includes the power and the 'duty "to 'throw such guards around,. as 'will protect the bal lot from fraud. And therefore our gen-j eral election law ; proyid'es, ''that" when! a voter offers to register, or vote, ho may be challenged, and required to take; an nam as iu nisuuaiiixcaiiuus. Aim u in X l- ; A- - I J a. i r A . - our general law regulating town olec j There ; can. bo. iio objection to that; and it provents no manffom voting, and puts him to no inconvenience. If a man will swear that he has the quali fications, then ho can register a tid 'vote; unless it can bo proved against him that no is noionuueu. "Ana: in mac case no A. A-- M . A J A. 'a . can be rejected. But the act under con- sideration is framed, iipon the ii making the ballot as j difficult as idea of possi ble. Indeed it makes it' impracticable. It,provides that ,any elector, inayj ' and it shall be the duty of the registrar to, challenge tho right ,-of any person to re-. glster. known or suspected not 1 to r bo lawfully entitled to register and when such challenge shall bo made,' it- shall be the duty of the registrar to require such . person" to provo 'to the.' sat isfaction , of , the registrar the fact of his being of lawful age lOjVotoylhe fact of his. residence for .twelve. nionths ip J lots," yc. Itwill bo noted that any bvstander may chillerige the voter Without proving anything against lilm, and the voter is not allowed to swear to , his qualifications ; but ho must prove tnem by tne oatns ot others, ana tnese others must be known to ..the registrar, and the registrar must .bey satisfied. Now, how is it possible for persons who move into.. Wilmington from other counties in the State to get witnesses from a distance known to the registrars in, Wilmington to prove their ages and their residences ? It is impossible, nit is a practical denial of the right to regis ter and vote. . III. 1 1 has been already said that towns and cities are but, parts, and parcels of the State for the convenience of local self-government, and that the voters, and the rights of voters, are the same as in tho State government. A funda mental principle in tho State govern- ment is, that representation shall be apportioned to the popular vote as hear as may be. Large counties and large districts shall have more representatives than small oues, so that not only every man may vote, but his vote shall count in Unrepresentative body. The Act creates a representative leg islative bod3 Board ofnine Aldermen, for the city of Wilmington Now, if every 'voter cou!d vote' lor' all of iho nine Aldermen, of course every nians vote would count. Or. it iho city were divided into threo wards, as nearby equal as niay bey. and each wanl elect three of theT Alder men, then every vote would count. But instead -of that the city is divided into three wards the 3 1 . ... . , , , . . . 4 first haa about 400 yoters ; the ; second about 400; and the third 200. So that one vote in the' first and second -wards counts as much as seven votes in the third ward. !

And to the'suggestion that It is a plan de vised by the city for j its bettor government,! it is answered, that not pne voter in five votod at the election. t At auy rate, without questioning the intent of the Legislature, we see that the eifect of the act is to violate' the funda mental principles of tho Constitution' and their! own cherished and declared purpose to inaintain free manhood sul- frago, and to eschew educational or pronertv qualifications, .
