for a rehearing before the territorial supreme court the city of ogden bases its claim for a rehearing upon the allegations that the court erred in sustain sustaining jug and affirming the judgment of the district court of the first judicial district and in adopting the opinion of the lower court because the lower court held that there 1800 is no atit authority herity in the city council of ogden city to require the registration of voters in precincts precincts or wards and that as the P plaintiff n and appellant only com bained that he had not been r regis isel red in the fifth municipal war ward of said city and the regist registrar mr stated that he had bad been registered as a voter of the ity city at large large that that was all that the plaint plaintiff and appellant was entitled to the lower court based its decision upon this point that certain sections of the territorial statute of 1888 relating to the incorporation of cities viz sections 16 17 18 and 19 of article ardele 1 1 and section 1 of article 6 3 which purport to change the government of cities and the manner of selecting the members pers of the co council by authorizing the voters of each ward to elect certain members of the council instead of selecting the entire council at large lar e were not applicable to ogden C city it y and nd that gie therefore the city council had no power to provide for registering and voting in wards in this conclusion the court erred for the sections of law referred to do not in any manner affect the question A presented by the record in this 1 cause I 1 the question whether each voter should vote for all the aldermen and councilors councillors counci lors composing the common council as provided in the original charter of the city or whether they should vote forward councilmen and justices of the peace as provided in the general act of march 8 1888 was not before the court in this action as shown by the record and was not involved in the decision of this controversy any further than the opinion of the court in regard 3 thereto was invited by both parties f 3 while passing upon the question presented aj by the record i the only the court was this had the otty etty council of oden city howerto power to require the city registration officer to enter the names of the voters of the city upon five ward lists instead of upon one list for the entire city Thede the decision cislon of this question in the affirmative would not in any manner affect the number or kind of off officers leers to be elected nor the manner of selecting them for the voters in each ward throughout the entire city coula could vote for each and evev every rember member of the common commo council an and for each and every olter other officer to be elected just as they always have done cc the appellant claims that no part of the act of march 8 1888 purports to affect the matter of registering voters imd and that the act is wholly inapplicable thereto the original charter of the city confers the power upon the council to divide the city into as many political subdivisions to be known as municipal wards as the council shall deem necessary for the convenience and welfare of the electors of the city the territorial elec election ta 0 n law requires the city council of ogden city ny to provide by ordinance for the tie registration of the voters of the city but leaves to the council to determine whether it will best beat suit the convenience of the voters and preserve the purity of the badlotto bal lotto have all the voters registered on one list and have them all vote into one ballot box or whether they shall be registered in wards or subdivisions of the city and vote in their respective wards I 1 if this court is of the opinion that the law of 1888 does not change or affect the composition of the common 0 council then the court should have held that the city council of ogden city had bad the power to require the registration of voters on ward lists and the polling of votes in each ward but that each elector has a right right under the charter to vote for ai the officers to be elected and that the officers named in the charter are the proper officers to be elected lp snow S now needed we are informed by mr john horton of rockport rockfort Rock port summit county who called at our office feb 2 that a all 11 alo along the W weber
