 I \ WHO ARE ENTITLED TO VOTE. 
 
 GENERAL QUALIFICATIONS 
 
 1. The only persons who can vote (except by " tendered 
 ballot ") are persons whose names are on the First and Third 
 parts of th6 Voter's Lists, as sent out by the Judge to the 
 Clerk of the Peace. This is the first and indispensable qual- 
 
 IficaMon. 
 
 2. The second essential is that the person claiming the right 
 to vote is at the time of the election, and was at the time of 
 the final revision and correction of the assessment I'oll, a 
 resident and domiciled within tlie electoral district. 
 
 ;i He must be of the age of twenty-one years. 
 
 4. He must be by birth or naturalization a British subject. 
 
 The foregoing are essentials in the qualifications of all voters. 
 
 Owners, Tenants, Occupants, and Houseiiolders. 
 
 In addition, if the person claiminj^ the right to vote, does 
 so as (1) owner, (2) tenant, (3) occupant, (4) householder, he 
 must, if required, be able to swear that he was in his own 
 right', or in the right of his wife either on the day that the 
 Roll was returned by the assessor, or on the day whe the Rolhi 
 was finally revised (these dates the Deputy-Returning officei; 
 is obliged to state) possessed of the real estate in respect of 
 which his name is entered on the List of Voters as owner, 
 tenant, occupant, or householder respectively. 
 
 Income and Wage-Earner Electors. 
 
 Those who claim the right to vote as Income or Wage- 
 Earner Voters must have been (1) resident of the Electoral 
 
District at the time of the ^final revimm of the Assessment 
 Roll, (2). Must have resided continually since the day of the 
 date of the final revision and up to the time of the Election 
 in the Electoral District, and (3). Must be a resident at the 
 time of the Election of the same Electoral District. And he 
 must be able to swear that at the date of i\\v final Revision, 
 and for twelve months previously, he was in the receipt of an 
 income or wages from his (a) Trade, (b) Occupation, (c) Call- 
 ing, (d)" Ofhce, or (e) Profession, to a sum not less than |250. 
 But in the case of a Wage-Earner, the fail- value of any board 
 or lodging furnished, given, or received as or the lieu of wages 
 
 may be reckoned. 
 
 It makes no difference in the case of Income Voters, whe- 
 ther their taxes have been paid or not. 
 
 JLandholdera^ Sons. 
 
 (This includes Farmerfi' Sons). 
 The Landholder's Son (and under this name the Parmer's 
 Son is now included) must be 
 
 (1) A resident of the District at the time he tenders his 
 
 vote. 
 
 (2) He must have resided in ihe District vnth and tn the 
 residence of the Landholder whose son he is, (he may be a 
 son, stepson, grandson, or son-in-law, and the Landholder may 
 l)e father, grandfather, step-father, or- father-in-law, mothei-, 
 grandmother, mother-in-law, or step-mother) for the twelve 
 months next before the return by the assessor of the Assess- 
 ment Roll. But temporary absence— not exceeding six months 
 
 in all during this period — nor absences in the occupation of 
 
 a mariner or fisherman, or as a student in some institution of 
 learning in the Province — does not count. 
 
 (3) His father, etc., or mother, etc., must at the date of 
 the return of the Assessment Roll have been the owner to his 
 or her own use, as owner, tenant, or occupant of the property 
 in respect of which his name is mentioned on the Roll, and he 
 must have resided with his parents on this particular piece of

 and (1) who have been duly enfranchised. (2) who do not re- 
 side among the Indians, although they participate in the 
 annuities, interest, moneys and rents of a tribe, may vote. 
 
 Persons not Entitled to Vote, are

 i!iay vote. . 
 
 11. Officers employed in collecting excise duties. 
 
 12. The Returning Officer and his Election Clerk, l)ut 
 Deputy Returning Officers and Poll Clerks may vote. 
 
 13. Any person who has been employed at the election or 
 in reference thereto, in forwarding the same, and for whicli 
 services he has been, is, or expects to be paid or remunerated. 
 
 14. Any person bribed. • V 
 
 15. Any peason paid or who has been promised payment 
 (a) for loss of time (b) travelling expenses (c) hire of team. 
 
 Appointment of Scrntlneer or Ag^ents. 
 
 During the week before polling day two intelligent per-sons 
 for each polling sub-division should be appointed. The agents 
 should be appointed by written authority, but if no agents 
 have been appointed by the Candidate, any two electors 
 friendly to him can undertake and perform the duties (see 
 Sec. 194 of Election Act). , wi u i^ 
 
 These agents are to act in the polling booth, and they should 
 make themselves perfectly familiar with the contents of these 
 
6 
 
 hints. They should be t'uniished with a copy of the Voters 
 list ; and on this list the names of those who are to be ob- 
 /jected to and sworn should be marked. The agent, therefore, 
 would as a general thing only have to insist on the oath being 
 administrated. 
 
 The chief grounds of objections may thus be sununarized :-- 
 
 (1) That the person presenting himself is not the person 
 named, but is personating mine vhcfor. If the agent is not 
 satisfied of the indentity of the person tendering himself as a 
 voter (and one at least of the agents should be well acquainted 
 with all the electors of the sub-division) he should re(]uire to 
 have him sworn. 
 
 (2) That he is not now, oi* if now a resident, has not been 
 for the required period a resident of the electoral district. 
 
 (3) That he is not of age. 
 
 (4) That he is not a British subject. 
 
 (5) ff owner, tenant, occupant or householder, that he was 
 not, nor was his wife, at the time required (as above see page 
 3) the bona-fide owner, etc. 
 
 (6) If Income or Wage earner — that he was not in receipt 
 of the income or wages (board included) of $250. 
 
 (7) If as landholder's son -that his parent was not pos- 
 sessed of the property mentioned in the Voters' List — in his 
 or her own right — that he did not live on the pi'operty, nor 
 with his parents, etc. (see page 4). 
 
 (S) That the Voter has been engaged or performed sei* vices 
 in connection with the election for which he lias been paid or 
 expects to be paid or rewarded. 
 
 (9) That he is* suspected to have been bribed. 
 
 (10) That his travelling expenses have been paid or pro- 
 mised. 
 
 (11) That his team has been hired. 
 
 All but the first of these grounds of objection should be 
 considered before polling-day, and the Voters' List marked 
 with the letter " S " before the name of each person who is to 
 be sworn. The Asrent. however, will have to be guided by cir- 
 
 < 
 
 I 
 
< 
 
 cumstancPS as to who else should be sworn beyond those so 
 
 mai'ked. 
 
 Oiitslde Scrutineers. 
 
 One or two persons, t^ach provided with a Voters List, 
 should be stationed at the entrance of the Polling Booth, so 
 as to keep track of those who have voted. Their names should 
 be at once erased, and those agents should, as electors come 
 up, mark on the cards (provided for the purpose) the nanu^s 
 of voters to be hunted up and bronght to the poll. 
 
 The success of our candidate may depend on how this work 
 
 is done. 
 
 No time should be lost in securing and bringing the doubt- 
 ful voters to the Poll. A vote hefore 12 is still equal to 
 
 TWO VOTES AFTER 12. 
 
 Agents both inside and outside as well, should 1m^ 
 nn the ground before 9 o'clock in the morning, before the 
 Poll opens. If not bad votes may be slipped in. The Deputy 
 Returning OflRcers as a general rule will be hostile to our can- 
 didates, and on no account should both the scrutineers either 
 inside or outside be away from their place during the day, one 
 at least must remain and their lunch should be brought to 
 
 them. 
 
 If Deputy Returning Officers, Poll Clerks or Agents have to 
 })e at a polling sub-division where they are not entitled to vote, 
 they must procure from the Returning Officer a certificate en- 
 titling them to vote at- the Polling Division at which they are 
 to act. A form of certificate is to be had of the Central Or- 
 iranization, without this certificate they cannot vote. 
 
 Ostths. 
 
 Any elector who desires to vote as owner, tenant, occupant, 
 or householder, or as landowner's son, may at his choice, and 
 no matter how he may be entered on the Voterii' List, take 
 either of the oaths. Form 18 or 20. (Sec. 91 Election Act.) 
 
 The oaths are printed in the appendix for the information 
 of any voter who may des^'re to know whether he may have to 
 swear- before ffoincr into the polling booth. 
 
8 
 
 [f Voters with the Returning' Officers' certificate present 
 themselves to vote at a [)olliii<,' place where they are not on 
 the list, it is the duty of the Deputy Returning Officer to have 
 them sworn before he takes their- vote. (See sub-sec. 5, sec. 
 .S7 of Election Act.) 
 
 The agent must see this is done, as fret^uently vr)ters, who 
 would not dare to vote where they are known, are sent to some 
 (►ther polling place, in the hope that their vote may be taken 
 without the oath being tendered to them. 
 
 The agent sliould himself take the oath of qualification 
 before voting. 
 
 Voters Unable to "Hark the Ballot Papers. 
 
 Any person who from blindness, or other physical causes, — 
 or who makes a declaration, that he is unable to read (he must 
 make the declaration l)efor(^ he can be admitted to vote in this 
 way), (-an have the ballot marked by the Deputy Re- 
 turning Officer— but one of the agents of each candidate nmst 
 he present at the time to see that the D. R. O. acts fairly. 
 
 Tendered Ballots. 
 
 1. Ff a person finds that another person has voted in his 
 name— in other words, that he has been personated — he is 
 entitled to insist on having what is known as a tendered 
 ballot handed to him, on which he can vote. 
 
 2. So also if any person's name which ought to have been 
 on the Voters' List is not, he also is entitled to vote on a 
 Tendered Ballot paper. 
 
 Those Tendered Ballots are not counted by the Deputy 
 Returning Officer, but in the event of a scrutiny may then be 
 
 counted. 
 
 Conntiny^ tlie Ballot*^. 
 
 The Agents must remain in the Polling Booths and see that 
 the Ballots are properly counted. 
 
 The Ballots which are not to be counted are

 except in Toronto where every elector is entitled to vote for 
 two. 
 
 (3) On wliich anything is wi-itten or marked hy which the 
 voter can he identified. 
 
 The objections made to any ballot should be noted by the 
 Deputy Returning Officer. It is the duty of the Agent to 
 
 see this is done. 
 
 Important. 
 
 Before leaving tlie booth the Agent sliould obtain, and safely 
 keep a written statement of the result of the pol', duly signed 
 by the Deputy Returning Officer, the poll (^erk, and the 
 agents present who are willing to do so. (See 105 Election 
 
 Act, p. 42.)
