ALLEGED FALSE ENROLMENT.
AN IMPORTANT RULING.
By Telegraph—Press Association. NELSON, January 18.
In the prosecution for alleged false enrolment an important ruling was given by the Magistrate (Mr Eyre' Kenny) to-day. The charge was against Thomas Lorenzo Aired, a Murmon missionary, who was alleged to have answered in the affirmative ,the declaration that he was a British subject* The Magistrate found that the wording on the application for enrolment form differed considerably from the wording of the Acts of 1905 and 1908, and held that thereby misunderstanding might easily be occasioned and dismissed the case. Mr Fell, solicitor for the Crown, said the ruling if upheld might.affect the enrolment* of claims throughout the Dominion, and might have affected all the elections.' >
