Tho Douglas county election commissioner case was argued In supreme court this morning, Attorneys E. W. Slmeral and J. Sullivan and Assistant Attorney General Sdgerton appearing In behalf of Election Commissioner Harley Q. Moor head and Judge Ben Baker and Attorney J, TePoel In opposition to tho com- mlssloner. The appeal to the higher court was taken from ruling of the Douglas county district court, which held that the election commissioner could not ar bitrarily deny the right of a man to register who had lost his naturalisation papers. Judge Baker, In his plea before the court, said that If the courtB upheld the election commissioner In hla contention tlat he a right to say who should or who should not register, It gave that of ficial greater authority than any power on earth and he could If he so desired disfranchise a large percentage of the voters of Douglas county. "It makes him an absolute cxar and despot, said the Judge. Hold Statute Explicit. Judge Baker held that tho statutes prescribe the questions whloh the com missioner should ask an applicant for regtstry and give him no Judicial powers. If he answered all questions In the ai- flrmatlvo tho commissioner had no other 23.982.00lnlirm&t(vn hut to allow htm to register. m'nf he was not satisfied In his own mind that he woa telling the truth he had the right afterwards to Investigate and require the applicant to prove his right to vote by the affidavits of two re putable cltlxens. Tho duties of the commissioner are purely clerical," said Judge Baker, "and not Judicial, when the applicant appears for registry. They become Judicial only atfer It appears that the applicant has committed perjury In answering ques tions put to him at the time he appears to register. If the commissioner believes that he has committed perjury all he has to do Is to notify him at the address given on the registration books that lie must prove the allegations mado at the mu. ... 7; j .trains each day. In addition to Its dally lm.?. llrZll V L"n, 1 .Vun of twenty trains to this city, all of then the duties of the commissioner be come Judicial." , Judge Sullivan contended that the ar gument of Judge Baker would not. stand n cases where registration was made only a day or two before election when there was no time to Investigate the case. Judge Daker was frequently Interrupted in his arguments by members ot the court who desired information upon par ticular points and at the close of his speech was again Questioned on points brought out In his argument.
