I want to lay down the rulea clear and wellknown ruleby which the truth is to be tried. All lawyers know that all presnmptions are in favor of the acts of officers and all presumptions are in favor of life. of liberty. and of rights. civil. political. or other. The presumption of law is that every man is a qualified voter. that lie resides in the proper place. is of the required ago. and if an alien by birth that he has been naturalized. No presumption can be indulged against any of these rights. All these rights are sufficiently supported by these to be held and exercised without further support. unless they are challenged. and then the challenging I party must affirmatively prove the fact that disqualifies. and prove it till the doubt is banished and the presumption overturned.
