ON HOUSE PE-
TITION.
new law requiring a petliton by voters
before a whiskey prescription house
can open In local option territory, and
here It Is:
The petition must give the name
of each and every person connected
with the house as owner; It has to
name the justice precinct In which
the house Is to be opened, and describe
the building In which the business Is
to be carried on. Before the house
can open a petition signed by a ma-
jority of the qualified voters of the
justice precinct In which the business
Is to be carried on, as shown by the
poll tax roll of the precinct, has to
be presented to and filed with the
county judge. Each name to the pe-
tition Is requited to be signed by the
voter in person; and an affidavit Is re-
quired to be attached to the petition
to the effect that each signature to
It la the genuine signature of the voter
hearing that name.
When the petition Is filed with the
county Judge he Is required to at once
notify the county attorney of that
fact, and set a day for hearing the pe-
tition, which day Bhall not be less than
ten nor more than fifteen days after
the filing of the petition. On the day
set down for hearing the petition the
county attorney shall, and any citizen
may, contest the sufficiency of same;
and at that hearing the genuineness
of any signature thereon may be chal-
lenged, and the right of any person
whoae name is signed thereto to vote
may be called In question either by
the county attorney or any other citi-
zen.
When the petition Is filed It becomes
a public dOcpment, and copies thereof
may be obtained by any person de-
string them; and the county judge
shall keep It open to the Inspection of
any person Interested In It.
No person not a qualified voter of
the precinct has any right to sign the
petition. Therefore, If you live In jus-
tice precinct No. 1 (Tyler, Pine SprlngH
tnd surrounding country), and the
person presenting the petition to you
teljs you that It Is to open a prescrip-
tion house In Troup, Bullard or Lln-
dale, you may know the statement Is
untrue.
The last paragraph Is written be-
cause the county judge has recently
received several letters from persons
who signed the petition requesting him
to strike their names from the petition
when It Is presented to him, the writ-
ers saying that they signed It under a
misunderstanding.
