Afterward Mr. Romeis had occasion to examine these lists and bring residents of these different wards and precincts to say whether these men in October actually lived in the wards and were voters or not. Let me call attention to another curious position. or rather legal proposition. which is advanced in this case. and that is. if a contestant brings evidence tending to show a man is not a resident where he voted. then it becomes incumbent upon the contestee not only to prove the man is a resident. but to prove he is twentyone years of age. to prove he is a native or a naturalized citizen. and to prove he has all the qualifications of a voter. I shall not spend any time in arguing that proposition. It does not devolve on the contestee to disprove anything that has not. been proved by the contestant in the case.
