Printers' Reception
and Ball Promises
to Be Big Success
The committee on arrangements for tho
reception, ball and card party to be
given next Tucsdav evenlnir nt Huriirht
has misconstrued" the attorneys' conten- hall by Omaha Typographical union No,
tlon that tho law is unjust and dlscrlm
Inatory.
Father Williams' attorneys will seek to
show that the constitutional rights of
citizens aro violated and outraged by this
law:, that It does not In reality safeguard
the public from illegal voters, but by dls
rrlmlnatlng against the known natural
ized' voter in favor of the man who says
ho ip American born opens the way to
fraud.
Tho election commissioner's Interpreta
tion of tho law is that a man who says
ho is. American born Is permitted, on this
unsupported assertion, to cast a .ballot,
but ,the man who was naturalized, even
for a lifetime, must' produce Ills natural
ization' pipers;'- :" - " -f
When Father Williams was denied the
righ'$ to vote tho matter was appealed
nnd the supreme court upheld' the election
