Ihe letters, set tin- forth the position
' ! the county supervisor and the!
hoard of registration, were forward-'
od to the governor and hy him refer10
to all attorney ueneral. Mi*. DeHnihl
has decided that if the hoard
o 'c.~istration will famish tho counl\
supervisor a certificate that the eijrli't
hundred and sixty-six names on the
petition asking for an election are
; one-fourth of the qualified electors'
of the county the election should he
ordered, although the exact number
(of qualified electors is not certified
to. lie holds that if the supervisors
of registration have ascertained the
4, nwmber of electors with snmeient acJ
curacy to know that 8(5(5 are onefourth
of the total number this is
all that is necessary, since complete
revision of the rolls may decrease
but could not increase the total number
of qualified electors., Tt would
appear from Ibis that the people of
illianisbury are entitled to an dec-1
tion "ii the dispensary if the other
