““The right to vote is not a necessary or fixed incident to citizenship, or inherent in each and' every individual, but that voting is the exercise of political power, and no one is entitled to-vote, unless the people in their sovereign capacity have conferred on him the right to’do-so. It may be laid down as a general proposition that the right of suffrage may be regulated and modified or withdrawn by the authority which conferred it” — citing numerous cases im accord with the pronouncements so made.”
