Editor The Advertiser: 1 desire space in your paper to call* the attention of the Democratic voters of Chesterfield county to the fact that the new rules of the party adopted by the last Democatic State Con vention require that every person who votes in the coming primary election shall enroll himself on the book of his precinct or polling place, by writing his name in full, his age, occupation and post ollice address. If he is unable to write, then by making his mark to the same before the last Tuesday in July of elec tion years. Now Mr. Editor I had the honor of being a member of the State Democratic Convention two years ago when the rule requiring primary election participants to enroll under their own hand and I remember very well that the great argument used in favor of passing the enrollment rule, was that the roll so made up would be filed with the Clerk of Court for each county and would become the permanent Democratic Club Roll for such county except such; as should be added from one election year to another, who might become of age, tranter or move in between such election yeais, and that the books of enrollment wnnlil remain open until five days pre ceding the first primary. I very well remember the task some of us had in getting all those who were qualified to enroll themselves so that they could participate in the elections. Now again this year the same difficult task is to go over again with the further added disadvantage that the time for enrolling is cut down, instead of the books of enrollment being opened during the political campaign, while tne matter is fresh upon the rr.inds of those who can vote and during the leisure of laying by season, when people get together and discuss men and measures and interest in the elections are at its highest pitch, when every one is interested enough to see after this important factor in his right to say who shall rule over him. We have under the new rules the spectacle of the books closing the last Tuesday in July one whole month before the primary being opened, only in a time when those who a?-p making their living by fanning are busi ly engaged in me cultivation and harvesting of their crops, and when their minds are occupied more with their business than anything else. This in my opinion is wrong and especially so towards those who live in the rural districts of our county. 1 want to impress upon every white man in Chesterfield county the importance of seeing to it that lie is properly enrolled. Don't put it olF, nor delay because the time slips away, and almost before you are aware of it the time for enrolling will be passed and then 110 matter how much you may desiro to vote in the pr.mary for the man of your choice you will be debarred unless you are properly enrolled. \nd besides, this enrollment will be your membership in your club and will allow you to participate in the election ofyrur club officers and delegates to I your next County Convention and from there to the next State Convention where I hope s<>me steps wi'l he taken to correct some of these apparent evils. Respectully, J. Clifton Kivers.
