MEMORIAL.
To [he General Assemble of Maryland:
The Memorial of the undersigned, citizens of .Maryland,
represents that the effect of the provision of the Constitution.
and Law, relating to the Registry of Voters in this State, has
been to disfranchise permanently a large majority of those,
who, before the adoption of these measures, were entitled to
exercise the right of voting.
The circumstances under which these restrictions were im-
posed, no longer exist, and it is contrary to the spirit of Re-
publican Institutions to compel men to bear the burdens of a
Government, in which they have no voice. Therefore, we re-
spectfully Petition your Honorable Body to repeal or modify
the Law so that all persona, who, under the old Constitution
were entitled to vote, shall hereafter he allowed to exercise
that right, upon taking the oath of allegiance to the Govern-
ment of the United States, and to the State of Maryland.
