§ 111. Conduct of elections. The clerk of the tribe shall provide a
sufficient number of ballot-boxes so that there shall be a separate
ballot-box for each officer to be elected, the expense for which shall
be paid from the moneys due to the tribe from the state. The county
attorney or the sheriff of Franklin county and the members of the
council who are not then candidates for election shall preside at the
election, receive the ballots presented by the voters and deposit them
in the respective ballot-boxes. Such council members and county attorney
or sheriff shall each be entitled to receive for such services the sum
of twenty dollars per day for each day during which they are actually
employed with such duties, to be paid out of the moneys due such tribe
from the state. The polls of such election shall be open between the
hours of nine o'clock in the morning and five o'clock in the afternoon.
A voter voting at such election must, if challenged, before depositing
his ballot, solemnly swear that he is at least eighteen years of age,
that he resides on the American side of the line dividing the United
States from Canada and that he is entitled to draw a share of the yearly
annuity moneys, which oath shall be administered by the clerk of the
tribe.
